To the People Of OCOnee County,

BY the blessing of Providence, and
through your kindness, hope soon
to enter on my seventh year as
Judge Of the Probate Court of
Oconee county. During the six years
ilacking few days) OF my service
have been peculiarly fortunate, not
having lost day from the office
through sickness.
A man once said to me that he
would carry case before a certain
Judge, expecting favorable de-
cision because he was a friend. I
sincerely hope that no one will ever
bring a case into the Probate Court
hoping for a favorable decision be-
cause we are friends; and i would
very much regret should any one
be deferred from trying case before
me, fearing an unfavorable decision
because we are not especially friend
ly. In the discharge Of my duties ]
know "neither friend nor foe," erich
or poor,' "high or low" but every
enc stands on the same footing with
In the precincts of the Probate
Court. In deciding cases 1 go into
the merits as I see them, and thus
far have been fortunate. Only one
case has been carried to the Supreme
Court on appeal and the decision of
the Circuit Judge was reversed and
I was sustained.

ments In the manner of keeping the
