State OF North Carolina, relates the following:
Many years ago he journeyed to Tennessee, then
almost an unbroken forest. At that time it was a
perilous undertaking. kobberies were by no means
uncommon, and Indian outrages were of frequent
occurrence. The passage Of the mountins, too
was fraught with danger. rs there were but few
roads and they almost impossible While there.
he met widow lady with an infant, left by her
husbands death, in land of strangers frieIdIess
and alone. She was endeavoring to make her wa,
back to her relatives in Carolina. Ubedient to the
generous impulses of his nature, he endeayored t.
secure her comfort, and to shield her sar as he
could from the hardships incident to the Journey
frequently carrying her infant for hours in his
arms. In 1911, when candidate for the Office he
so long and worthily flied, he was opposed by a
gentleman of deseryedy popularity and powerful
family influence. Twice they received each an
equal number of votes Several members of the
Legislature were confined to their rooms by sick
ness. and committee was appointed to visit them
and obtain their votes. One of these gentlemen a
brother of the widow above mentioned but an en-
tire stranger to Mr.. Ill., Tecollected hearing his
sister speak of the kindness shown her by him,
and cast his vote, on that account for Vim. HILL
That one vote secured his election.
