Daughter Cut Swath;

SAVANNAH, May 27.-Nhss Una

president, of Sarasota. Fla, spent
Wednesday night in the city prison
here, having been brought from Rich

swer to charges Of having passed
worthless checks on the hotel Sa-
vannah.
Her father, apprised by wire of her
trouble, came to Savannah, and
Thursday after a private hearing be
fore the recorder, who let the young
lady off with a fatherly lecture,
dad" paid up the bills, made good
the "bad checks" and took the young
lady home. In tears she told the re
corder that she could not imagine
what possessed her to issue checks
that might not be honored.
Miss Taylor, while at boarding
school, decided that life was too pro
sale, and determined to 60 home.
Reaching Savannah, she changed her
mind, and planned a little wairl
about the country. Money? That was
easy! Wasn't dad president of the
Sarasota Bank and Trust company
and interested in several other
banks? One of the "other" banks
was all right, and the checks were
drawn and signed with her father
name, "per his daughter Una" but
the "other" banks cashier did not
feel sure about cashing them, and
they came back to the hotel here,
where she had obtained funds on
them for a trip to Richmond

CALEDONIA DEPARTMENT
By DIR. EMMETT JAMESON.

On Monday morning, May 90 the
Caledonia community was shocked to
hear of the sudden and accidental
death of our life long friend and
neighbor, Mr.. Allen Cook. He was
born and reared in the Caledonia sec
ton, he was che Of our prominent
and substantial farmers and a good
citizen. For over thirty years Mr..
Cook and the writer lived in less than
a mile of each other. He was one of
the best of neighbors, always ready to
lend a helping hand to those in dis
tess, he also took a prominent part
IN music and one of the leaders in the
Lowndes County Musical Convention,
and as one, time he was a teacher of
music. Tis sad to thus see our friends
and neighbors of the long ago swiftly
passing from out midst. We shall
miss Mr.. Cook in our all-day singings
and IN the county convention. For a
number of years he was leading
member in the New Salem Baptist
church.
As the days 60 by with these many
changes we are brought to feel the
truth that "here We have no continu-
ing city" Friend after friend departs
and we feel a growing sense Of lone
illness as we journey on to the end
without them, tits sad to see and feel
these frequent partings, very sad in
deed if we think only Of the thinning
of the ranks ON this side Of the river.
Mr.. Cook had many friends and as
sociates that will miss him from their
presence. He leaves a devoted wife,
four daughters and one son and two
brothers to mourn his loss. The fun
eral was conducted on Wednesday By
Rev. T. f. Gregory. Of the Method
ist church, after which his body was
tenderly laid to rest in the Rowa.l
cemetery. The following acted as
pail bearers. Messrs. A. F. Robinson,
