Did you happen to notice, in the | news columns the other day, a brief dispatch from Augusta, Ga., stating that Mr, Hunt Tilford Dickenson had just inherited $4,000,000 from his great uncle, Wesley Hunt Tilford? Tt was an interesting dispatch It set the imagination to dndeed must be the recipient, we thought. His comfort through Tife was assured. He need never bend his back to brutalizing labor. He need never see the wife of his bosom in want nor his children in rags. He can keep his heart warm by doing | geod for others less fortunate “a an possessed of $4,000,000 can do a great many good deeds and make them effective tage in life.

Oh, my beloved son.” This father has not yet had the courage to tell his boy that ~ he owns $4,000,000, In an interview he said: “I shall keep the “fact from him as long as possible, I am afraid that it would a spoil him.
