1864		ORDINARY’S OFFICE		1889


Buena Vista, Ga., June 12, 1888

To the voters of Marion County:

In announcing myself a candidate, again, for Ordinary of Marion County, I 
desire to thank my fellow citizens for their support in the past as well as for 
their encouragement for the future.

It is human to err; and the mistakes of my official life, no doubt, have been 
many; but during an official term of a quarter of a century I do not now 
remember a single decision of mine which has been reversed by either the 
Superior Court of the Supreme Court of the state.

If there are any statutes which, to any of our people, seem to be hard and 
unjust, I will simply say: I NEVER MADE THEM.  I am sworn to observe and 
enforce the law as I find it, and as the higher courts have interpreted it.  I 
have had no personal ends to subserve or any private or personal opinions to 
carry out.  I have at all times tried to keep inviolate my official oath and 
unsullied the ermine bestowed on me by your generous suffrage.

Again thanking your for your confidence during a long term of service, I 
respectfully ask your support in the approaching election.

Respectfully,
James M. Lowe
