This is from a handwritten list titled, "Hoke Smith Club". It is written on the back of a 1907 property tax return. I believe it was written by J. F. McLean. Hoke Smith was a candidate for Governor of Georgia in 1906. (Please see transcribed article from an Atlanta newspaper linked at bottom of page - it concerns Hoke Smith supporters in Fayette County also)
