Mr. J. H. McCallum – Remarkable Man

Jackson, July 15  -  Mr. J. H. McCallum, of the firm of McCallum, Carmichael & 
Co., merchants of Jackson, Ga., is a “kicker.”  He is six feet high and can 
kick seven and a half feet high.  Can stand flat-footed, with knees stiff, and 
put the palms of his hands on the ground.  With a sudden backward movement of 
the arms can strike his elbows together behind him.  He was married in his 
twenty first year, and his first grandchild was born before he was thirty 
seven.  He is not a “kicker” in the common acceptation of the word.  He is the 
jovialest best natured, politest and happiest man, and the youngest grandfather 
in Georgia  -  Atlanta Journal.
