Thomaston Times

The meeting at the Grace Primitive Baptist Church came to a close Sunday 
afternoon with the baptizing of candidates for admission into the church by the 
pastor Elder Stubbs.  The meetings were well attended and considerable interest 
was manifested at each service.

At the Missionary Baptist Church Sunday night candidates for admission received 
during the recent revival were baptized by the pastor, Rev. W.W. Arnold.  
Nineteen candidates were baptized.  The service was a most impressive one and 
was attended by a large congregation.

Superior Court

The May term of Upson Superior Court will convene next week.  The officers of 
the court have been busy for several days getting everything in readiness.  As 
usual there will be heavy dockets of both civil and criminal business.  Just 
how much will be disposed of is problematical.  There is plenty of business to 
run the full two weeks but it is not known whether court will be held that 
long.  The cases on the civil docket will be called as they appear and the 
whole docket finished as soon as possible, it is understood.

Thomaston Times

The Time has been requested by Messrs. Thad Persons and J.F. Hammons, of 
Yatesville, to issue a challenge to the marble players of Upson County for 
games at times and places to be agreed upon.

George Moore, a bout about 18 years of age was accidentally killed at the 
Thomaston Cotton Mills Monday afternoon about 6 o’clock.  Accounts differ as to 
the exact manner of his death but is reported that he was playing with the 
elevator and while swinging from one of the steam heat pipes in the ceiling of 
one of the rooms lost his hold, falling to the floor, the shock causing his 
death as no bones were broken in his body.
