CAR STOLEN AND STRIPPED.
THEN ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Johnson Mathews Finds His Ford In Front OF
House. Instead of In Garage and Traces
Where Thieves Took 1t

The strange case of an automobile
being stolen from a mans garage,
being carried mile away and strip
ped, then returned to his home, was
reported to the police today by
johnson Mathews, who resides at
807 Lamar street, with his father, l..
S. Mathews.
The car, a practically new Ford,
had beeh securely locked in the ga
rage at the Mathews home Wednes-
day evening. Some time during the
night unknown persons pried the lock
off the door, ran the car to a seclud-
ed spot beyond the home of T. l..
Carruthers. on the Upper River road
cast of Americus, distance of a
mile from the Mathews place.
After the car reached the stopping
place on the highway, it had been
dismantled of all its useful accessor-
side. An extra gallon of oil which
les by the light of fire at the road
had been placed in the car onyl a
day before was also taken, together
with a new venerator, tools and in
ner tubes. Sufficient gasoline was

left to bring the car back to the
Mathews home, where it was found
early this morning by the owner In.
vestigation showed that the new gen
orator had been replaced with an old
enc, which evidently had been re-
moved to the car in which the thieves
drove to the Mathews home.
Mr.. Mathews found the car this
morning in front of his home, and
shortly thereafter tracked it and an
other car to the place where his car
had been stripped. The fire was still
burning and there was a quantity Of
machinists' cotton waste on the
ground. Both cars had been turned
around at that spot.
The theft took place presumably
about l o'clock this morning, for
Mrs Charles Smith "a daughter of
Mr.. Mathews. ersiding nearby, and
who was attending her little son who
was taken suddenly i'll in the night,
heard the noise occasioned by the
breaking of the lock, but being un-
able to leave the sick room at the
time dismissed the incident from her
mind as not worthy of investigation.

PULASKI HOLT is COMING

Pulaski S. Holt, son of Mrs. 2. l..
Holt, will arrive Saturday for short
visit to his mother during the holi-
days. Mr.. Holt is coming to Ameri-
Gus from Savannah, but has Travelled
extensively since his departure from
this section about sixteen months
ago.
His travels nave carried him to
all of the Gulf ports and those of the
Atlantic. He visited Italy, Frances
Germany, Belgium, besides making
one trip to Tunis, Africa.
After the hold lay season, Mr..
Holt will return to Savannah and will
take passage to New York via the
Ocean Steamship line, and in all
probability will take up his regular
duties aboard a transatlantic cargo
carrier.
His presence in Americus will be
a source of interest to friends, and
they no doubt will be glad for him
to recount at length his adventures

GUILTY
OF DEED FORGERY
Young Man OF Triton Gets a To
5 Years-Charges Persecu-
ton BY Rivals

Triton, Dec. 22.-The jury in
the case of b. C. WilIiford, in Tiff
Superior court, returned a verdict of
guilty shortly after 3 o'clock yester-
day afternoon, after being out since
11:30. The sentence was fixed at
not less than four nor more than
five years, and recommendation was
made that defendant be punished as
for misdemcanor. There were two
counts in the indictment.
Williford, a young attorney of Tiff
ton, was indicted by the grand jury
last week, four indictments being re-
turned charging forgery. He was
tried on one of these indictments
this week, at special term of Tiff
Superior court, it being understood
that this was in the nature of test
case. The particular document on
which the state based its case was
a deed purporting to have been made
by j. S. Sumner to John w. Baker
The case was the first called when
the special term convened and Its
trial occupied day and "a half. A
number of witnesses were sworn fo1
the state but. the defense submitted
no testimony except the defendant
statement, which he was over an hou
in delivering. He denied all the
charges and alleged that the prose
cution was persecution on the part
of business competitors.

DEATH CLAIMS
'MARSE HENRY,
BELOVEDEDITOR
Former Publisher Of Louisville
Expires Unexpectedly At
Jacksonville, Fla

JACKSONVILLE, Dec. 22.-Hen-
ry Watterson, one of the country s
best known journalists and former
owner and publisher of the Louisville
Courier Journal, died at hotel here
at 6:15 this morning. His death was
unexpected, though it was known for
several days that he was seriously
i'll. He had been here six weeks
and was on his way to Fort Myers.
his wife, son and daughter were at
his bedside when the end came.
Watterson's condition became very
grave yesterday. Death was due to
heart failure superinduced by con-
gestion of the lungs.
The body will remain in Florida
until spring on account of the frail
health of Mrs. Watterson, and will
then be taken to Louisville for
burial.
In 1918, Mr.. Watterson, who was
known as 'Marse Henry" sold his
interest in the Courier Journal to
Judge Robert w. Bingham, Of Louis
vile, who also purchased the stock of
the other owners, and Watterson re-
tired from editorial responsibility
and place, accepting for several
months the title of editor emeritus.
In the, spring of 1919 he resigned
that position and since then he has
been living a wholly retired life, in
terruped only occasionally by let
ter to newspaper on public topic
or an interview granted to some row
ing reporter.
One example of his characteristic
style is found in a letter, written
in October, 1921, regretting that age
rendered inadvisable his attendance
upon the Confederate reunion al
Chattanooga. 1T cannot be long,
he wrote, when we shall meet or
that beautiful shore, and, when We
meet, be sure the Bonnfe Blue Fiag
will be flying at the fore and the
bands will be playing Dixie on pa
rade, whilst the pretty girls will be
distributing The Chattanooga Rebel
to groups Of ragged, red-nosed an
gels who have not forgotten the rebeI
veil -

BRANCH OF SAVANNAH
BANK INVOKES RULES

BROWNSVILLE, Dec. %. - A
slight furry was caused in local
banking circles yesterday when the
local branch Of the Oglethorpe Saw
ings and Trust company, of Savan-
nah, was forced by the action OF, the
mother bank to invoke the 60-day
withdrawal rule for savings deposits.
This was caused by the fear of a
panieky feeling in Savannah, due to
the three bank closings in the past
week The action did not material
ly affect the local branch and the
action was generally understood as
merely precautionary measure for
the sake of the depositors as well as
the institution at Savannah.
