4ooseo W MT. MAler as OFTEN saw
ing that the last meeting of the Con-
federate cabinet was held in his
house. This may have been only his
opinion, or it may have been an au-
thoritative statement based on some
contemporaneous declaration made to
him by his illustrious guest, Presi-
dent Davis.
"The New York World, in an issue
published many years ago, said of the
meeting at Abbeville:
" In>gloomy loneliness Davis and
his cabinet assembled in one of the
sitting rooms. They held their last
consultation, discussed plans that
were discussed only to be abandoned
and finally decided that the end had
come and they had better try to es-
cape. Then they examined such pa
pers as they had with them, and
when the hour of twelve struck, the
ashes of nearly all of those papers
were smouldering in the glowing
Goals of the big wood fire.
"What is the testimony of those
who participated in the cabinet meet
ing at Abbeville?
president Davis is silent. He does
not mention his stay in Abbeville. He
refers to only one cabinet meeting

DIVE INTO POOL
CAUSE OF DEATH

Olar, Oct. 6.-The remains of
Robert A. Kirkland, the 18 year old
son of DR.. and Mrs. N. F. Kirkland
of Savannah, were brought here yes
terday afternoon and inferred in
Mi1pah church cemetery near here,
the old home church of the Kirkland
family. His death was very sad
one. On the 7th day Of last month
he was in swimming in a pool in Sa-
vannah. Just as he made a plunge
10 dive he observed another boy
coming up from under the water at
the spot where he was directed. Con-
sequently he changed his course so
IS to avoid a clash with the other
young man. This necessitated Rob-
srts diving into very shallow water,
and the result was a fatal accident,
resulting in the dislocation Of the
sixth cervical vertebrae. He lay
.paraiyzed until his deeth Monday,
which was FASTENED by the develop
ment of pneumonia three or four
days ago.
Funeral services were held in Sa-
zannah. The comn,ittal service was
eonducted by the Rev. C. M. Peeler
Of the local Methodist church. This
Vas preceded by a few very appro-
priate remarks by his pastor, the
Rev. w. "A. Kelly of Asbney Monu-
mental church of Savannah, who ac-
eumpanied the remains here.
Besides his parents, the young
man leaves one brother, DR.. Lawton
Kirkland of Savannah. He was a
nephew of the Rev. W. C. Kirkland,
D. D., of Latta and Clerk Of Court
A. L. Kirkland of Bamberg.

ridge after he left him at the Savan-
nah river, while Acting Treasurer
Clark removes the last vestige of
doubt by the declaration that Gen
eral Breckenridge arrived in Wash
ington an hour or so after President
Davis left Secretary Benjamin quit
the party just after crossing the Sa-
vannah river and, therefore, was not
at Washington. There is no test to
determine how many members are
required to constitute a session of
the cabinet, but common sense indi-
Gates that two men do not make a
cabinet. There were four cabinet Of
fcers present and five departments
represented at Abbeville, but at
Washington only two cabinet officers
could have been present and three
departments could have been repre-
sented, not enough to compose an or
binary quorum
''In consideration of all the circum-
stances at Abbeville and the testi-
mony of the men who were promi-
nent actors in the closing scene of
the vast drama there, it seems to
me that it is established that the last
cabinet meeting which could be call
ed such was held at Abbeville and
that the last chapter in government
of the Confederate States of 'Ameri-
ca was written there. I have not ex-
amined all the evidence, for that
would take months, nor have had |
an opportunity to acquaint myself !
with the details of local traditions,
yet, upon such data as I have been !
able to find in spirit of impartial
inquiry, believe that the honor and
distinction SO long claimed by Able
vile are hers by good and rightful |
title. l.' -
"Fate, with that fondness for coin !
cidence it has so often manifested,
ordained, in accordance with the fit
ness of things that the last meeting
Of the Confederate cabinet should be
held in the little town in which the
first Secession meeting in the South
took place. Where. the star of a new
nation had risen, there it was des-
tined to fall. The Confederacy re- i
ceived it's death blow at Appomattox,
but its heart ceased to beat at Able
vile, the home of John C. Calhoun,
the master architect Of those political
theories upon which the short-lived
government was reared, of the. bril-
liant Chancellor Francis Hugh Ward
law who supplied the draft upon
which the Ordinance of Secession was
modelled, of Thomas Chiles Perrin,
the first signer of that ordinance,
and of legions of gallant sons who
fought with unsurpassed valor in
the worlds history and died for the
nation that was. II
"And so, this memorial will stand
forevermore to remind successive
generations that Abbeville holds in I
proud and hallowed remembrance it's
historic connection with /
he rise and fall of nation that by /:
he fortitude, sacrifice and sublime +
leroism Of it's people, will command
he admiration of the world more
md more through all the ages to !.

s,s7s, VIRGINIA PENSIONERS

Richmond, Va, Oct. 6.-Virginia' s
Confederate pensioners now number
9,575 about one-half Of whom are
women. The state auditor declares
1t is becoming increasingly apparent
that he veterans are passing away
far more rapidly than their wives,
due to the fact that in nearly all in
stances on record their wives are
considerably younger than their
husbands. Many Of the veterans were
married twice.
