Mrs. Brown is survived by her
husband, Ex-Governor Brown,
daughter, Miss Cora Brown, and two
sons, Joseph E. and Charley McCord
Brown of Marietta, and one brother,
Mr.. Jabez McCord of Augusta.
Mrs. Cora McCord Brown was
about 62 years of age. She was
born in Lincoln county and after her
parents death in her childhood she
made her home with her uncle, Zach
airy McCord, of Augusta. She re-
celved her education in the public
and private schools of Augusta, and
IN 1889 she married Joseph M. Brown
OF Marietta and came here to live.
In 1908 Mr.. Brown was elected
governor, and during the two terms
of his administration she presided
gracefully and most acceptably as
the first lady Of the state at the
governors mansion in Atlanta. Not
only did she take an active part
as leader in social affairs but she
took a deep interest in the u. d.
C.'s, the ID. A. RS ETC., and her I'M
affected sweetness and the charm of
her engaging personality made her
one of the most popular and admir-
ed women in Georgia.
Since the Browns return to Ma
rietta in 1913, Mrs. Brown resumed
her place as the most beloved and
one of the most prominent women in
the city. She was devout Chris
tian, member of the First Baptist
church, and active in the work of
the Missionary society.
She was a member of the Marietta
Woman's Club, first vice-president of
the Y. w. C. A., and leader in
all movements for charity or for civ
ic betterment.
She was member of the Wednes-
day Bridge ClAb, the Round Dozen
luncheon club, and no social func-

cious presence.
She was the dearest of neighbCrs
and the lOveliest of friends, especial
ly to young people, by whom she was
adored. The soul of hospitality, Mrs.
Brown kept open house and was al
ways the cordial hostess to scores of
friends, and her home was haven
of refuge to the sick and sorrowful.
Her death has cast a pail of sad
ness over the town and she will be
sorely missed, for each one feels in

her perfect devotion t6 her husband,
and children, her genius for true

TRAIL OF THE DRUG RINGS

This was irksome to Oyler, who craved more
excitement. If he had to be around cattle he
decided he had better go to Mexico and be-
come bulfghter, and he was all ready to
buy himself red sash when something
happened.
They are different from all other detectives.
A detective in that division is Often phar-
macst chemist or a physician. Narcotics
furnish an intricate science, a technical lore
which 1t takes years to learn. -Ap nexperi-
cnced man sent narcotic Job might seize
a whole shipload of drugs only to find later
that his prize was canned epson salts, but
they needed men in the narcotic division about
that time. Some one discovered there were
100000 addicts in the United States and
that millions in capital were back of traffic
which was sapping the strength of the nation.
Oyer had none of the technical training
necessary, but he had proved that he had
tenaclty, an lnquiring mind and punch
tucked away in either hand Oyler has since
added the technical knowledge, SO he is swim
ming along with a record which has made
HIM the head in an important Office. In that
Office he smashed the million-doll drug ring.
He told the story only when pressed for the
information. Oyer is so superlativey calm
and takes things so simply and good naturedly
that he would discourage any inquirer with
an appetite for blood and thunder. He said
"Well, don't know whether it is broken up
or not. Yes, they had million and more in
vested. It's most broken up, anyway. They
have quit working. We had come to know it
as the Canadian drug ring, because they were
bringing in most Of the stuff over the Cana

around and distributed drugs generally
