U.D.C. HEADS Says
NO FAMINE AND
PESTILENCE' HERE
Mrs. Harold Refutcs Re
/, ports of Widespread
Distress In South

Mrs. Frank P. Harold today re-
ceived telegram from Mrs. Roy Nc
Kinney, president-general of the
United Daughters of the Confeder-
acy, at Paducah KY, asking informa-
ton as to reports of widespread dis
tress, pestilenc2 and famine through
out Georgia and the South, and ask
ing that she place the T. d. C. or
ganization in the forefront of relief
work.
To this telegram, Mrs. Harold
made vigorous reply denying the eX.
istence of any great distress in this
section, and requesting Mrs. McKin-
ney to aid in giving widest publicity
to an official refutation of the false
reports circulating in the North. Her
kilograms which covers the whole
ground completely, follows:
Mrs Roy Mckinney, President
General United Daughters of the
COnfcdcracy, Paducah, KY.
Your% telegram this morning has
surprised as well as panied me. be-
cause Il brings TO mind the great
SANDER being paEnetrated upon the
people of the South in circulation of
such reports as have become current
in other sections. The cotton grow
ers of the South have borne with
remarkable fortitude a heavy load
during the period of dehation, happily
about ended. but there has been nc
actual suffering in the South so far
as / have learned, except in isolated
districts, among those ignorant and
lower classes who are always more OF
less the victims of their own lack OF
vision.
If the federal government will
finance the expectation of our cotton
to Europe, prosperity will reign in
the South.
Never before in the history of
Georgia has there been such splendid
precautions taken against the spread
of contagious diseases by state, coun-
ty and municipal authorities, and
reports of thegpublic health authori-
ties here fail to disclose any epidemic
of pellagra or other serious condition
of sickness among this people. Fhf4l-
inc and pestilence are unknown in
Georgia, and widest possible pub
licity should be given to an enl-
phatic denial that such conditions
exist in Georgia.
Daughters of the Confederacy join
with other Georgians in expressing
and disgust because of
the false and slanderous statements
circulated outside the South, concern
ing the conditions alleged, and | beg
that you Join us in contradicting
these insults to our southern people.
The same fortitude which carried
the South through more than four
years Of heartless war while our
heroic armies repelled the enemy on
the Virginia front line yet abide with
this people and will ever enable Geor-
gia and the South to exist, happily,
without outside assistance, while OF
our usual surplus we are always will
ing to contribute to aid our less for
tunate fellow men and women.
MRS. FRANK HAROLD,
President, Georgia Division, United
Daughters of the Confederacy.

The inability of the Swedes to hold

The 183-cubic-ineh engine has dem

Valuable Surveys Given

The Vermont Historical Society,
whose headquarters are at the
State House Office building in
Montpelier, has recently received
from George Chandler Colt of
Boston two manuscript volumes
that were once the property of
John Winthrop Chandler of
Peacham. The latter was one of
the early surveyors of this region,
being particular to record and plot
the tracts he surveyed. As a result
he left his descendants two manu-
script volumes containing his sur
veys of about 60 townships in the
northern part of the state Many
of hese have nlots showing where
each original proprietor's allot-
ment were. The volumes contain
not only the names of the ORIGINAL
proprietors, but also the subse-
quert purchasers, and the next
purchasers in turn. This gift from
Mr.. Colt is the most valuable one
the society has received for some
time.
