the Salvation Army work in this city,
held their farewell meeting Sunday
evening at Salvation Army hall and
will leave Wednesday to assist in the

tended and was of much interest. Both
officers gave addresses of farewell,
stating that it is with regret that they
leave the city.

ming that both Lieut.. Cave and she
regret leaving because Of the great
interest which at this time is being
shown. She said that they had great
hopes for Augusta in establishing a
good corps and already they had some
recruits.
1t is almost needless to say that peo-
pie of Augusta have greatly appre-
ciated the earnest work which these
ladies have accomplished during their
comparatively short stay in the city
are sorry that they are to depart.
