Don't Let Baby Suffer With Eczema
and Skin Troubles.

Babies need a perfect skin-cover-
ing. Skin eruptions cause them not
only intense suffering, but hinder
their growth. DIR. HObsOn's Eczema
Ointment can be relied on for relief
of suffering babies whose skin erup-
tions have made their life miserable.
Our baby was afflicted with break
ing out of the skin all over the face
and scalp. Doctors and skin special
lists failed TO help. We tried DR.
Hobson's Eczema Ointment and were
overjoyed to see baby completely cur
ed before one box was used" writes

WOULD PERPETUATE THE MEM
DRY OF HEROES WHO ENLIST
ED FROM TERRELL.

Editor Dawson News: Will you
please give notice once more for de-
sired information? In compiling a
brief record of the work of the Mary
Brantley Chapter U. D. c. since or
ganization in March, 1901, l encoun-
ter difficulties not a few. The state
historian says: Enroll by compa-
mics the names of those soldiers who
enlisted from your town and county.
Try to get a complete roster OF those
killed and wounded" Muster rolls
have been secured under great diff
Guilty, no records having been pre-
served by the county only of the
Dawson Volunteers, Co. Z, Firth
Georgia Regiment. However, both
Capt ]. A. Fulton and Capt Simmons
very promptly furnished a list OF
the same in response to my first
appeal in 1901. Capt. Fulton gave
names of several when and where
killed. discharged, ETC., also the prln-
cipal battles in which the company
was engaged. OF the original ninety
four men only twenty-five and the
officers returned home on May 9th,
1865. To Mr.. J. NJ. Smith of Dallas,
Tex, l am indebted for a list OF the
officers of the Barlow Avengers
This company left Dawson Sept. 9Th,
1861, under command of Capt VIM.
C Thornton to join Gen. Henry A.
Wise's legion in Northern Virginia.
Capt. Thorton died the following No
vember, leaving Lieutenant Richard
Fletcher in command. The suffering
and loss of the company was so great
we were ordered to report at SaVan-
nah. On reaching Savannah on
Christmas eve, 1861, there were only
Is men out of the 81 who left Daw-
son able to do duty. (Lost % by
death.) When Lieutenant Fletcher
reported to Gen. A. R. Lawton he
looked sad at our pitiable condition,
sent us to the hotel pulaski House,
and had US we'll cared for. He gave
orders to Lieut.. Fletcher to return
home with US and recruit. Such was
our condition that we were objects
of pity and curiosity"
Gives Graphic Description.
Mr.. Smith gives a very graphic de-
scription of the meanderings of the
company from the day they left Daw-
son until they reached Savannah.
Though written at the advanced age
of 70 it would no doubt prove read
able and perhaps interesting to the
descendants of these men. Mr.. !
Smith died on his way to the reunion
in New Orleans in 1910.
The company returned to Savan-
nah in 1862, reorganized as Co. X,
31st Ga. regiment To Mr.. John Hol-
land of Bronwood l am indebted for |
the roll of the 81 men with Lieut.
Fletcher captain. Later Seabron |
Thornton was elected captain and |
served throughout the bloody strug-
gle.

scendants.
Crosses of Honor.
1t had been decided that Novem-
Der, 1912, would be the last bestowal
Of the Southern Cross of Honor, but
at the convention at Washington, D..
c., it was reported that there were
many of the veterans living in remote
districts, where the idea had pene-
trated slowly, who had not learned
how to file their applications, and
some enormously thought they had
to be paid for hence the time was
extended.
Terrell being a small county it is
presumed every veteran has the Cross
who desires it. I am finishing up the
record by having it put in type, and
will have all certificates filed with a
copy in the Ordinary's Office for fu-
ture reference. One copy will be sent
the state historian and the chapter
will file one.
l would so thankfully receive any
information in regard to any man
who enlisted from Terrell county,
especially those killed or who died
during the four years of the War
Between the States.
