The buzz was audible at the old Fayette County Courthouse on the square Friday, September 17.

With muskets, bells, and flags, the James Waldrop Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution celebrated the 223rd anniversary of the signing of the United States Constitution.

The celebration opened with prayer and was followed by the Pledge of Allegiance.  A musket salute was given by the Marquis de Lafayette Chapter Sons of the American Revolution.

Several local residents joined in the 3rd annual bell ringing celebration.

The James Waldrop Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution is chartered in Fayetteville, GA.
