In connection with the evident necessity
and convenience of preserving these rolls
of different companies recall an incident
at Murphy's Hotel in your city. one
morning few years ago an old Confede-
rate soldier, apparently broken down IN
health and fortune, approached Colonel
Murphy about getting to the Veterans
Home. He stated that he had been South
since the war; did not know the name or
address of single member OF his COM
pany, nor how to find any reference TO
show he was not misrepresenting. himself.
He only could recall the name Of his cap
tain and the company was from Meckien-
burg county. Standing near l told the
old soldier / was from Mecklenburg and II
he would give me his name and that OF his
captain might render him some service:
He did SO. At the next County Court L
saw Captain w. A. Pace, to whom he re-
ferred, snd mentioned the old soldiers
name. He said he remembered him well.
He was a true, worthy. brave man. When
he last saw him he was left for dead on
the battlefield. The old soldier after
ward visited Captain Pace at his home;
was kindly treated, and recommended for
admission as worthy OF being member OF
the Soldiers Home.

small stock of all kinds. The sales of Flour by
agents so far this month are reported to be
larger than that of any January for the past five
years. In the leading markets Flour has been
strong throughout week and from 10 to l5c y
Dbl higher owing to the rise In Wheat. There is
no material change to note in Corn Oats or Mill
