Irwin
County, Georgia Newspaper Data
While on the round with Gen. Cook, during his canvass recently in the lower counties, we passed a night with Mr.
James Paulk, Sr., of Irwin. Mr. Paulk gave us the names of two colored men in his county who are free holders and
pay taxes each upon eleven hundred dollars worth of property. Their names are "Judge L." Paulk and July
Jones. They have farms, and own cattle, sheep, horses, etc., are out of debt, and are living with ease and comfort.
