HISTORIC OLD HER0D TOWN
DOROTHY WALTON CHAPTER TO
MARK INDIAN VILLAGE.
Twas Here Chief Herod COurted His

GambOled at Play.

Twas Here Chief Herod COurted His
FavOrite Squaw and PapOoses
Gamboled at Play.
Five miles south of Dawson nes-
ties the fiourishing village of Herod.
A short distance from there, toward
the west, is the site of that once
thriving Indian village known in his
tory and by tradition as Herod Town,
! so-called from its noted Indian chief
Here the red warrior, in times of
peace, courted his favorite squaw
Here the mighty Indian hunter went
| forth into an almost uncultivated
forest in search of game to supply
| the wants of his family. Here the
wives Of the red men cared for their
papooses, prepared their food and
cultivated the soil. Here innocent
Indian babes gamboled in sport and
made merry the tranquil village by
their hilarious games. Little then
did these denizens of the forest i'm
agine that within a short time the
white man, whose stately tread
brooks no opposition, would disturb
by demanding that they should leave
their peaceful homes where prosperi-
ty and plenty abounded and seek
more distant and less desirable rest
ing place beyond the broad waters of
the mighty Mississippi. But such was
the fiat of fate; such the decree of
an enlightened, educated, christian
nation. Such was their demand in
justification of their right of discov-
cry, and their idea of the survival
of the fittest No longer then was
the voice of the red man heard in
our forests; no longer was he al
lowed to plead for the liberties of
his race and the rights of his wife
and children. The decree had gone
forth and he must be removed to his
western possessions. There the de-
scendants of their little remnant of
survivors are today, happy in their
surroundings, forgetful of the injus-
tice of the past and forging toward
a higher civilization. Herod Town
with it's joys and pleasures is for
gotten, but the sacredness of that
place will remain forever.
The moving away of the Indians
marks an epoch in our history that
should never be forgotten. Our chill
dren to the latest generation should
be taught the value of this history.
Through the kindness of Mr.. w. L.
Gumm the site on which Herod Town
formerly stood has been transferred |
to the Dorothy Walton chapter of the
D. A. RS. Within a short time this
spot will be marked with appropriate
ceremonies by this chapter. This
event should be hailed with pleasure
by all who desire to perpetuate his
tory and to inform posterity.

DAWSON WANTS CONFERENCE
BY RISING VOTE CHURCH EN-
DoRsED STEWARDS ACTION.

Invitation Goes to MethOdists, in Ses-
sion at Savannah, to Meet in Daw-
son Year Hence.
AT the II o'clock service at the
Methodist church Sunday the pastor,
Rev. E. F, Morgan, stated that the
board of stewards had voted to in
vite the South Georgia Conference
to met in Dawson in 1913, and it was
desired to have an expression from
the church as a whole. He called
for rising vote. and only one stood
III opposition TO the invitation when
the negative side was put. This mem
Der yielded, and made 1t unanimous.
Dawson's claims will be urged on
the conference at Savannah, and it is
believed that the invitation will be
accepted, as the other two cities that
will present invitations-Macon and
Waycross-have both entertained the
body since it met in Dawson just
twenty years ago.
AS usual, the Dawson church will
make an excellent report of the years
work at the conference, which con-
venes in Savannah tonight for a
weeks session. The assessments for
all claims upon the church, as we'll
as pastors salary, have been paid in
full.
Mr.. Morgan has served the church
two years, and it is the general wish
that he be returned. Besides being
a strong expounder of the gospel he
is one of the most universally be-
loved men who has ever served the
church.
Presiding Elder Jackson, who has
also had a successful year in his
work, is held in high esteem here,
and his many friends hope to see him
returned here.
