From it, we copy the following sketches of some of the delegates, from this election district: LEMUEL L. HARDY Lemuel L. Hardy was born in Troup county on the 5th of October 1828 and received a plain but practical education in the home schools. He was married to Miss Huguley of Monroe county. His father, a sturdy and successful farmer, was born in Virginia, married in South Carolina and moved to Georgia in 1827. Capt. Hardy seems never to have politically ambitious, having never held any other office than that of Notary Public. He served in the State Troops during the war as Captain. He was a Whig until the dissolution of the Southern wing of that party and has since been a Democrat. He is a gentleman of enlarged ideas and is keenly alive to the desires and necessities of his constituents in Troup county.
