Daves wins contest for ordinary of Fannin county
The Georgia Supreme Court affirmed the superior court decision in Gilliam v Green et al upholding W A Daves as the duly elected ordinary of Fannin County by 40 votes. The ruling addressed mandamus against the clerk and the handling of uncounted ballots, noting precinct managers must return votes for consolidation and a late counted vote could not alter the outcome. Gilliam’s contest is thus ended. The issue of railroad rates and a separate note on the upcoming railroad commissioner appointment are also reported.
