THE LLOYD T. HILL ESTATE.
Two Suits Will Probably Follow Its
Administration in the Probate
Court. Ss..%...I

Proceedings in the matter of the
administration of the estate OF
Lloyd r.. Hill were commenced in the
probatecourt Friday morning, ant. b ;
fore the matter is finally settled two
law suits will probably be the result.
Attorney Miles, Of Royalton. is
counsel for Mrs. Lloyd Z. Hill. who
has asked that letters OF admins
acknowledgements in the matter OF
the estate of her deceased husband.
The proceedings also seek to re-
cover certain personal property be-
longing to the estate, which was
disposed ofsand received by P. H.
Neuman. OF this city, and j. H. Rus
sell, Of Royalton, and it is against
these two persons that the suits will
probably be brought.
The situations of both parties in
the matter are practically the same.
Each held cbattel mortgages agains t
personal property included in the
estate at the time of MIR. Hill s death.
In both cases the notes secured by
the mortgages were due. but had
not been foreclosed.
The testimony taken before Judge
Richardson today showed that both
Newman and Russell had been ap-
preached by friends OF Mrs. Hill, and
were asked to deal leniently in the
matter of the mortgages held by
them. Both agreed to do so. New
mans mortgage included team OF
horses and some young cattle. The
proposition was made to Newman
that he take one horse as full pay
ment OF his claim, which he did, and
the animal was turned over to him
by parties supposed to be represent
tatives OF Mrs. Hill. Mr.. Russells
mortgage was on growing grain
and he, like Newman, was prevailed
upon to accept a portion of the
mOrtgaged property as settlement
Of the claim.
Now on behalf of the heirs of the
estate, Mr.. Miles has brought all
action to recover this property and
u formal demand was made for the
return OF the property. by Attorney
Miles, from both defendants. At
torney Miles says that he intends to
bring suit to recover the value of the
property which he says was illegally
disposed of, and the cases will come
up in the district court.

The negro Ebert Evans who escaped
from Raleigh with small pox broken
out on him and made his way to the
home of relatives in this county few
miles North of Henderson, went back
of his own accord and is now in the
pest house there. He sowed conster-
nation if he didn't scatter small pox
where he went along and there is a
feeling of relief that he has been got
rid of. If he had been apprehended
and dealt with in the manner he
merited it would have served him
right. But the fact of the business
is no one seemed to be particularly
anxious to do the experimenting act.
Had it been a mad dog the case
would have been different. Then
folks could have climbed the fence or
gone out to hunt him in on horse
back or in high wheel vehicles, using
long range glasses to spy out the
country round about. But a negro
with the small pox rowing the land
like wild beast is difficult to deal
with. One never knows exactly
where he is going to break out.
However, the excitement has about
subsidized and DR.. Judd, the County
Health Officer, has vaccinated num-
Der of persons where Evans went
along besides instituting proper quar-
antine measures at places where he
STAYED.

About three months ago the GOLD
LEAF mentioned the return of Mr..
Robert r. Burwell from Texas on
account of the feeble condition of his
health Now it is called upon to
announce his death. A victim of
consumption he had gradually grown
worse until the end came at o'clock
Sunday morning, April 23rd, at the
home of his brother Mr.. w. d. Bur-
we'll in this place.
Robert Randolph Burwell was 50
years of age. He was the third son
of the late Robert Burwell, and was
born and reared near WILLIAMSBURG in
this county. He went to Texas about
4 years ago and was engaged in bust
ness in Waco. About Is months ago
he contracted a cold which developed
in consumption with the result above
mentioned.
Deceased was a brother of Mrs. w.
H. Mcneil, of Carthage, Mrs. John
Williams, of kittrell, Mr.. Dawson
Burwell, Of Stovall, and Mrs. W. w.
Parker and Messrs. Walter d. and

mother, a most estimable and beloved
woman, died, and now the son sleeps

Madam Ej.adO, the PalmiSt.

Madam Leila Elrado,- the Palmist.
is in Henderson for a short while and
has opened an Office in the building in
Mayor Southerland's yard, opposite
Mr.. d. Y. Cooper's residence. This
lady does not claim to be the seventh
daughter of the seventh son." or any
like fake to foist upon gullible pub
lie, but a true, honest woman with no
desire to humbug the people. Speak
ing of her the Norfolk Public Ledger
recently said this:
"None OF the really noble sciences has
been used so often to fake the public as
Palmistry. There is ''past master" OF
this art now in the city, however, who
scorns imposition or fraud. She is re-
fined, modest Egyptian girl, Of sweet and
charming manner, who is, beyond doubt,
divinely gifted. Madam Elrado has fore
told some notable events OF which proof
can be given the credulous. and If you
have trouble of any kind, or would like
to know what the future has in store for
you. consult her."
The Greensboro Record, on the eve
of Madam Elrado's departure from
that city after having spent some
time there, says:
"Madam Elrado astonished all those
who called on her here and convinced
them that Palmistry is science. She
had as patrons only the best people, in
telectually and otherwise. Sh.: is a per-
feet lady and The Record commends her
for her earn-stness in her work and her
SUCCESS
From the above it may be seen how
Madam Elrado is regarded wherever
she has been. If you would know
more about the science of Palmistry
consult the lady. The charge is very
moderate and you will be more than
satisfied.

toned below is just little ahead of
anything else of the kind. We copy
from an exchange, the item not being

The largest hog ever raised was
recently slaughtered in New York.
The animal was a JERSEY red boar,
two and one-half years old. weighing
alive 1,6O9 pounds and dressed 1856
pounds. The huge swine measured
over nine feet from the tip of its nose
TO the end of it's tail. 1t measured

The Work About Finished.

The improvements that have been
in progress at the pumping station
of the Henderson Water Company the
past few weeks, are about finished.
These consist in the erection OF new
brick building, the putting in of an
improved system of filters. the con-
struction of a 43,O0O-gallon cistern,
&c. The water now presents crystal
like transparency clear as the
glass is clean in fact-and is absolute
ly pure.
Mr.. Western. the expert in charge,
has done his work well and both the
Water Company and the people of
Henderson are to be congratulated
upon the progressive step. 1t shows
the company thinks nothing too good
for their patrons and it proposes to
give them the best service and best
water that money and skill can pro-
vide.

They Skipped the Town.

The Mexican bull fighters and fe-
male baseballists advertised to ex-
hibit in Henderson last Friday, failed
to keep their engagement. From
Raleigh they went direct to Peters,
burg giving US the goby entirely And
in this the town is to be congratu-
lated. The community is nothing
the loser by having such an aggrega-
ton pass it by.
1t was reported that a threatening
letter had been sent warning them
that they would not be permitted to
show in Henderson. But this we are
told is not true. The license tax was
the obstacle in the way. 1t seems
that trouble on this point arose after
the date was made and the town
billed.
The ''show" is said to have been a
first-class fake all through. The So
called bull fight was tame affair
"a burlesque and fraud. a ludicrous
farce and imposition. And as for the
baseball feature-females in boomers
that carries its own comment.
Several small legacies in the way
OF unpaid bills and the ''paper on the
wall' are the only reminders OF the
show that never came, and this
doubtless is more pleasant if not
more profitable than would have been
the memory of it had the bull fight
and ball game not been declared off
The bill posting was the largest
single item and the GOLD LEAF hopes
that Mr.. Jordan will not be loser
on this account, he having taken
steps to get his money. AS for the
rest OF us, since hearing from other
places where the show has been, we
can afford to call it even and then feel
that we came out ahead.
