About the. first of next September our
friend and fellow townsman, ex-Sheriff
Crowell and his beloved and accom-
|plished family will leave Wilson to make
their home in Asheville. we believe no
man in: Wilson county is more beloved, or
highly esteemed, and he will carry with
him into his new home the affection of
our whole people For twelve. successive
years he was sheriff of this county, and
during that time was a bulwark Of
strength to Democracy. In the councils
of his party and in the community his
counsel was always sought after and
needed. In him are all the elements of
good citizenship. Asheville is to be con-
graduated on the acquisition Of such a
man, and we wish him success in his new
home" -
