Butts County Progress June 1909
Court House Beautification

At the last meeting of the County Commissioners a resolution was passed 
favoring the selling of the fence around the courthouse square.  The fence 
will be sold to the highest and best bidder.  The matter was placed in the 
hands of Mr. J. H. Carmichael who will receive all bids.  It is said the fence 
will be sold very cheap and anybody desiring a fence for a cemetery or for a 
yard can doubtless secure a bargain.

The court house lawn is to be beautified and walks will probably be laid 
around the court house from the different entrances.  The selling of the fence 
and the work of laying the walks is conditional upon the removal of the 
hitching post by the city.  At present the hitching posts and conditions 
arising there from are unsightly and decidedly unhealthy.  It is for hygienic 
purposes that the posts are to be moved. 

It is proposed to make the court house lawn one of the prettiest in the 
state.  This can be done at a small expense.
