QUICK RETURN OF PRoDlGAL
Father and Brother Of Cash MARTYR
Extremely Affiliated by Sudden
Temperance Of Latter.

Cash Martin was the most brilliant
boy In his community. Whenever the
neighbors got tired OF discussing the
weather or wondering why the hens
had stopped laying, they turned them.
selves into a prophesying circle for
the benefit OF Cash. The future OF Cash
unrolled itself before their admiring
gaze in limitless splendor and led to
towering pinnacle of greatness.
One day excitement in the village
became intense. Cash had decided to
leave home and wrest from the cold
and cruel world that fame and fortune
which must surely be his. One old
man opined that Cash would be gone
20 years and return with his pockets

of II years he would come whirling

GROWTH or THE LANGUAGE
How Proper Names Have Become
Common Nouns and Verbs In
Course Of Time.

The growth and change which are
inseparable from all living language
cannot fail to interest the student,
and special interest attaches to the
incorporation of the names Of ia
nous men.
Thus Wellington has come to
mean a sort of boot; Brougham, a
carriage, and Gladstone, appropri-
ately enough, travellers bag, as that
great man advocated the 'bag and
baggage" policy which seems likely
at length to be adopted.
Other names have been turned
into verbs as well as nouns. For in
stance, the murderer Burke's name
is perpetuated in the words, to
burke, burked, burking and burkism,
while in quite recent times Captain
Boycott's experiences resulted in the
language being enriched by the
phrases to boycott, boycotter, boycott
ting, etc.
The most notable case was prob
ably that of the great and good
man, the Rev. 7. Bowdler, D. D.,
who by publishing a family edi-
ton of Shakespeare in 1881 added
the words "bowdlerize" and ''bowd-
lerism" to our language.-New York

BULLOCK HALL IN 1913

When Theodore Roosevelt was
candidate for president of the United
States the first time, the old man
sion in which his mother had spent
her childhood became an object of ma
ton wide interest and has continu-
ed SO to this time
Every body that reads newspapers
became familiar with the romantic
story of pretty Nittie Bullochs MAJ
riage to the handsome Mr.. Roosevelt
of New York and a front view of her
home, with it's immense round pillars,
was as familiar to the public as the
full face of her son, Theodore, with
his exposed teeth.
One summer afternoon in the
early fail of 1913, Mr. and Mrs. AL
bert Bishop, of Marietta, took their
automobile full of ladies for a ride
to Roswell and for sight at Bulloch
Hall, especially. 1t belongs now to
Mr.. ]. B. Wing, chairman of the
board of County Commissioners Of
Cobb County, and he has made a
dear home of the big old place for his
wife and two small children.
Mr.. Wing admires Theodore Roose
velt,s good qualities and knows vol
umes of interesting things about his
ancestors and the antebellum life of
the Bulloch family in their Roswell
home.
At the time of Our visit Mr.. Wing
had just finished giving the house
coat of white paint with chocolate
colored trimmings. 1t stands on an
elevation that slopes gradually to-
ward the front drive way and deeply
at the rear, of the house while On
one side is the vegetable garden AMI
on the other the barn and servants
houses.
There are 80 varieties of trees,
most of them the natural growth of
1.-The forest primevaP' around the
house. At the back of the house
is row of black walnut trees-at
the foot of the hill-and near the
house there are many locust and
Usage orange trees all at that season
loaded with fruit
Directly in front of the house is a
walk once bordered on each side
with cedars and having two holly

trees nearest the house one with
berries and one with out like two
i faithful sentinels guarding the en-
trance.
Mr.. Wing has replaced the old
plasterings of the walls with the
finest and best that could be made
and has left it white Also he has
! introduced complete system of
acetyline gas lighting with elegant
fixtures that extend even to the front
Vsranda. The old mar tells and other
wood work are unchanged and the
same door knobs of cut glass and sill
yer are still in use.
The stair way in the wide hall be-
gins at the door of the dining room
and extends for a few steps on that
side to landing across the width
of the hall and from this landing
the stairs go against the opposite side
of the hall to the second floor. On
thesame side of this wide landing
door opens to another stairway
leading down to the door of the room
in which Mittie Bullochs infancy was
spent. A large bedroom is between
the nursery and the drawingroom on
the left of the front hall. Opposite
this is another parlor opening into
the dining-room. 1t was before the
firpn1onn in tho nil
| Theodore Roosevelt's parents were
married. The serving room, which
I is very large, is now used by Mrs
Wing for kitchen and there is a
blue flameoil stove as we'll as a range
for coal in it. The original kitchen
was in a basement room inthe days
when distance was covered by dozens
of young men and maidens of dusky
hue instead of electric wires and ele-
vators. The Bullochs owned many
negroes and much land and lived
luxuriously in days when peace and
! plenty characterized the south. In
those days the vines and orchards and
rose trees were planted and life was
a continual round of gayety.
Mrs. Wing has more chickens in
her wide meadow lot near the barn
than we ever saw in one flock before
and they were just all kinds of nice
eatable ones to be killed without
compunction on account of their
The Marietta journal and courier. (Marietta, Ga.) 1909-1918, 1913-12-19

fine pedigrees.
1t is interesting to know that the
drinking vessels for these chickens
are made from the machinery wheels
of the first cotton-mill ever erecta5
in Georgia.
Bulloch Hall has four immense
square rooms on the second floor
with a wide hall and the front end
CT this hall is walled off into A den
or study for the master of the house
Another stair case leads up to the
immense attic in which a few tables
chairs, etc., stand about.
Still another stair way leads I'm to
the roof and from it the view is like
that from the top of a mountain
Vistas of hills and valleys, streams
and forests, indescribably beautiful
Around the house are old fashion
ed poisoning trees and shrubs. AT
the foot of the meadow that stones
from the barn there is a thick wood
and among the trees nearest the road
is a monumental poplar tree which
used to be the home of a family of
'possums, but Mr.. Wing found it har-
bored mosquitoes and gnats in the
summer, so he had it cement-filled as
dentists fill teeth
Much could be written of the i'm
provements and repairs Mr.. Wing
is constantly making in Bulloch Hall.
He has recently built larger back
porch and put new flooring on the
front veranda but his object is to
preserve this historic place and not
desecrate it by irreverent changes.
The six stately pillars in front of the
mansion give it the aspect of tenn
pie and it must have been in DAYS
long past kind of shrine sacred to
the happiness of family circles and
hOspitable hearthstones.
All admirers of the old south as
well as the friends of Col. Roosevelt,
feel greatful to Mr.. Wing for cherish
ing Bulloch Hail.
