FITZPATRICK AGAIN LOSES

The jury in the now famous case
wherein w. T. Fitzpatrick sought to
regain control of his estate, now in
the hands of A. L. Upton, Commit
tee, and valued at approximately
1926, 900, unanimously found him to
be of unsound mind and incompe-
tent to manage his estate. This ver-
diet was generally expected, not
withstanding the existence of a
strong sympathy for Mr.. Fitzpat-
rick.
1t is thought now that the noted
case, which has been tried a number
of times, is ended and that any
further attempt to restore to him his
property rights, would be useless.

More People Attended Sunday
School Here Than Ever Be-
fore in History.

Go-to-S unday-Sc Day in this
county was the largest ever held in
this section, and the churches and
Sunday School rooms were crowded.
There was an attendance of CSC at
the Christian church, 1913 at the
Methodist church, 203 at the Pres
byterian church and 1877 at the Bap-
fist church in this city, making to-
tai white attendance Of 1,424.

a large attendance at Antioch, DON
aldson, Spencer and Gilead

in attendance in Montgomery county
was estimated at above 1000, with
more than 1000 colored pupils

The Sunday School movement has
been growing all over the State for
several months and the slogan has
been ga Million in Sunday School

are confident when the returns have
been finally tabulated it will be
found that there were fully that
