NAY GRAND JURY
May Term, 1915. Grand Jury Of Lee
Superior Court.

May Term, 1915. Grand Jury Of Lee
Superior Court.
Leesburg, Ca. May It'll, 1915.
We, the grand jurors chosen ana
sworn for the May term Lee Superior
Court, 1916, offer tnese. our General
Presentments
We recommend that Mrs. Susan
Spillers' name be stricken from the
pauper's list; from information that
we have received. she is not an object
of charity; she has sufficient means
to support herself.
We recommend that our Represen-
tative, at the approaching session of
the General Assembly, secure the en-
actment Of law amending the law
creating the City Court of Leesburg,
whereby the regular panel in said
Court will be seventeen, and from
said panel trial jury shall be Sc
lected by allowing the defendant
threQ strikes and the State two
strikes. Under the present law the
State is allowed only one strike, AID
we think that by allowing the State a
greater number of strikes fair trial
can be better secured.
Ny. J. L. Akin having resigned
his Office Of Notary Public and Ex-
Oficio Justice of the Peace of the
s75th District, G.. NJ, we recommend
that Mr.. Geo. w. Mcdonald be APP
pointed to succeed Mr.. Akin. Mr.. J.
Nj. Hines term Of Office as Notary
public and Ex-OfRcio Justice of the
Peace of the S15th District, G. NJ,
expires in June. We recommend that
Mr., Hines be appointed to succeed
himself for said office.
We recommend that the County
Commissioners build road common
cling at Mr.. j. F. Usury's, thence
south to the Clay place, then across
Fox Creek to the place known as
Gardner" place, coming into the
public road running from Gardner
place to Whitsett.
We recommend that the jail fees
be reduced to forty cents per day
for the board of each prisoner.
The Lee County journal. (Leesburg, Ga.) 1904-19??, 1915-05-27

We recommend that the Commits
sioners of Roads and Revenues OF
Lee county, Georgia, be authorized, in
addition to the taxes now authorized
by law without a recommendation OF
the grand jury, to assess and collect
for the accumulated Indebtedness q
said county Tor year 1915, an amount
not to exceed one hundred per cent
OF the State tax that shall be assess
ed for the year 1915.
We appoint Mr.. ] M. Cannon and
Mr.. T. G. Tharpe as a Special Com
mfttee to check the books of Mr.. F.
7. King, and be allowed $500 per
day for their services, to be paid by
the County Commissioners.
we recommend that the bill Of
H. 7. Harris for s4 so for auto hire
be paid, also the bill of B. F. Chris
tie for Sc. 80, be paid by the County
Commissioners. Above amounts for
carrying the committees on roads and
bridges, and committee on convict
camps and public buildings.
We recommend that these general
presentments be published in the OF
fetal organ Of the county, and be
paid a reasonable sum for same.
We recommend that the Commits
sioners purchase an electric motor
not to exceed one-horse power, to
be used for the purpose Of pumping
water at the jail, as the present sys-
tenn is not giving satisfaction.

Dear Santa: am little girl

Mrs. Geo. L. Porter.

When from the dark and unfa-
miliar world into which grief plunges
us, we grope for helping hand and
long for reassuring voice. Friend
ship responds with futile hand
clasp and world-old platitudes. 1t
reminds us that bereavement is the
common lot and time the only healer
of its wounds. 1t urgessus to bear in
mind the reunion awaiting us in the
bright hereafter when only the now
concerns our stricken lives.
But sometimes there passes from
our earthly vision a personality SO
vivid that it refuses to be associated
with the ordinary conception of
death and it's sad accomplishments
Mingled with sorrow for their pass
ing is an elation at the successful
issue of their earthly race, the tri-
umphal reaching of the goal and we
tell oursely es that Death is the
golden key that opens the palace of
eternity" Such a one was Maud
Porter. Possessed of an unusually
bright mentality, keenly alive to the
world around her to the last moment
