The Congress Cornet Band came late Thursday evening by invitation, and gave our officials a general serenade. Supper was served to them at Johnston's Commercial House, which was duly appreciated by the boys. Last, but not least, Dr. C. C. Stouffer made one of his old-time ringing speeches, which pleased everybody. Jonathan Holmes and "marching Through Georgia," and the band joined in the chorus. We heard it said by the band boys that great credit is due to Mayor Burns and the ladies of the Commercial House for hospitalities shown them while here.
