On motion of Mr.. Castor t. Rowell, one
of the defeated candidates for the House,
the nomination of Messrs. Beddingtield,

He called to attention of the delegates
the fact that Mr.. BrOughtOn was elected
10 the House in 1896 and his seat stolen
bv q negro. He asked that this wrong
be righted.
This nomination was seconded by Mr..
Frank Terrell. of Marks Creek, who de-
clared that ~Broughton was today the
strongest man with the people in the
county, and added:
Il have gone away from the democratic
Marty and was not with it when he had
bis seat taken from him by a negro. l
o+,nd here today to make amends for
,hot and ask YOU to nominate him and
o;va ne q chance to honor him.
THE declaration was greeted with a
thunder of applause.
