Mrs. Patterson was interviewed by

o beautiful place. The ladies of the

stay here that 1 have fallen in love
with the whole city. Your local w. C.
T. U. is doing a good work and IL
serves the support of every Cody man
in Americus.
The people ofgAmericus should ap-
preciate the stand your paper, The
Times Recorder, has taken in refusing
to publish liquor advertisements. I
know what 1t means, in a financial
way, to a paper to turn down these
ads. When paper has moral convic
tions strong enough to turn away this
class of advertising it is certainly
worth the support of every true citizen
of the city"

DIVORCE CASES
FIRST ON TRIAL
MONDAY MORNING
-FOUR DEGREES ARE GRANTED
Regular Fall Session Court
COnyGneS

With Judge 2. A. Littlejohn presid-
irg, the fall term of Sumter superior
court was convened Monday morning
and with the especially heavy Jail
docket session of probably three
weeks is assured. Civil business is
much lighter than usual, but there are
two dozen negro prisoners and two
whites in Jail awaiting trial or in
dictment, which is sufficient to insure
a prolonged session.
The grand jury was organized yes
terday morning with the election OF
Rev. R. L. Biyins as foreman. This
grand jury is an exceptionally strong
and able body and is composed of the
following well known citizens:
R. L. Bivins, z. l.. Andrews, Craw
ford Wheatley,7C.. ]. White, G. w. Wal
ters, ]. w. Harris, Jr, o. L. Dixon, ]

r. w. Buchanan, B. T. Johnson, ]. d.
Williams, C. ]. Clarke, Thos. Harold,
G. E, Buchanan, N. A. Ray, G. w. Dos
ter, Jr.
Judge. Littlejohn's charge to the
grand jury was characteristic of thai
able jurist, strong and forceful and
covering fully every feature of the
law coming before that body Judge
Llttlejohn laid special stress upon thu
alleged fragrant violation of the pro.
hibition laws, gambling, which, it Is
said, is carried on here, and violations
of the state game laws, giving more
than usual emphasis to these legal
infractions.
The grand jury is composed of men
who will investigate, and results are
expected.
Three or four days will be required
in which to dispose of all civil bust
ness for the term and then the trial o.
Jail cases will begin. There are five
negroes to be tried for murder, whi.t
a host of other felony cases are upon
the docket Then, too, the grand jury
will doubtless develop many more
cases in their investigation of crimes
thus increasing the number upon the
docket for trial.
Four or five divorce cases of local
interest were disposed of yesterday
morning, full DEGREES being granted ir
three cases, and a partial divorce to
the plaintiff in another.

LAST REHEARSAL HELD IN THE
EAST ROOM ON MONDAY AFTEE.
NOON
WORKING GIRLS PRESENT
BRIDE HANDSOME PETTICOAT
Presents Continue To Arrive-Guesfs
To Be Limited

Washington, D. c., Nov. 24.-Fin-
ishing touches on arrangements for
the white house wedding were in evil
dence in the historic east room to-
day, and rehearsal of the cere-
mony late in the afternoon compfet-
ed all the plans for tomorrow's pro-
gram when Jessie Wilson, the pres
ident's second daughter, will become
the wife of Francis Bowes Sayre.
Gifts and guests continued to ar
rive during the day. While the num-
Der of guests will be much smaller
than at the wedding of Alice Roose-
welt and Nicholas Longworth, a dis
tingais6hd company has been invited
and the ceremony tomorrow promises
to be brilliant scene.
The house of representatives has
adjourned until Wednesday, and
while the senate has planned to WORK
on the day OF the wedding, it may
adjourn in time to permit those IF
it's members who have been invitei
to attend
DR.. Winnifred T. Grenfell, the Eao-
rador coast mission worker, and close
friend OF Mr.. Sayre, who is to be best
man, arrived here today.
Mrs Sayre, mother of the groom,
also arrived late this afternoon. Num-
bers of guests from Princeton have be-
gun to- arrive. Many members of the
Princeton faculty and veteran residents
of the town, who have been long and
close friends of the president and Mrs.
Wilson and their daughters, have re-
ceived the coveted invitations.
Working Girls Send Present
A delegation representing 500 gil
employees of white goods factory,
left New York today for Washington
to present to Miss Jessie Wilson,
the presidents daughter, a hand-em-
broidered linen petticoat, as we'd
ding gift. Miss Wilson, it was un-
derstood, has made an appointment to
receive the committee at the white
house this evening. All of the 500
girls played some part in the making
of the fine petticoat, which is en-
broidered with garland OF roses and
an American eagle and flag, bearing
the initials ~. w. S."-Jessie Wilson
Sayre. The idea was prompted by
appreciation of the work that Miss
Wilson has done as a social worker
among New York factory girls.
Although no guest list has be IN
permitted to become public at the
white house, it is known that the in
yitations have been limited almost en-
tirely to personal friends of Mr..
.Sayre, Miss Wilson and the two fanii-
lies. No invitations have been issued
to senators or representatives, as
such, though few have been invited,
and outside of the cabinet, the diplo-
matte corps and some high officials
of the army and navy, invitations to
official Washington have been very
scarce. The commissioners Of the
district of Columbia, who are thc
heads of the local government have
not received invitations.
As the wedding gifts have arriveZ
they have been placed in one Of tht
largest rooms on the second floor o
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1913-11-25

the white house where the members
of the Wilson family have personally
superintended the work of unpacking
and have made lists for future ac-
knowledgements. Those guests who
are members of the house party and
some of the others who arrived today
were treated to a view of the gifts,
though it is understood the presents
will not be on view tomorrow. The
most valuable gift in the entire lot is
the diamond pendant given by the
members of the house of representa-
tives and white house officials say the
bride to be has been greatly displeas-
ed by exaggerated statements of the
value of many of the presents.
One of the most striking gifts re-
ceived is a pure white vicuna skin
rug from the Peruvian minister am
Madame Pe7et. Admiral Dewey ana
Mrs. Dewey have given a wonderful
silver vase; Mr.. Sayre's family has
sent complete set of small silver and
a silver tea service. These, however
are only among hundreds of gifts
which have been arriving almost hour
ly for the last week.
