The Sheriff will not allow me to enter his room to collect his effects. I do believe that he has nothing of value. If I have to then I will contact an attorney to handle the whole affair.

Scarce and obscure publication. Not listed in the Georgia Derenne catalog. <br /> <br /> Sabin 80104. From the New Georgia Encyclopedia Jennie Knight Emory Univ.<br /> <br /> Before the Civil War 1861-65 the only Unitarian churches in Georgia were located in Augusta and Savannah. Following disagreements with the national association of Unitarians over the abolition of slavery the Augusta church closed in the 1840s while the Savannah church closed in 1859. Similarly southern Universalists often differed with their northern counterparts about abolition. There were more small active Universalist churches than Unitarian churches in Georgia before the war yet no congregations remained active afterward. A large Universalist missionary effort in the Southeast began in 1891 and attracted many new converts but after the Great Depression of the 1930s Universalist membership declined again.
