yersity and took the law course, ana
was granted license in the fall OF 1871,
leading in a class of twenty-five april
cants. He then commenced the practice
of his chosen profession in Gainesville,
and in 1892 received by reclamation the
nomination of the Democratic party OF
Gates county for the Legislature. Those
were the early days of Populism, and
Notwithstanding the fact that the party
in the county was almost severed III
twain, he was elected by majority OF
six hundred-the largest ever before re-
ceived in the county by any candidate Tor
that office.
The story of his canvass during that
campaign can be better told by the ma
jority with which he was actually
elected
He was an able and distinguished
representative, and his course was
marked by untiring efforts for the enact
ment of such laws as would rebound to
the best interest of his people.
He served from 1894 to 1897 as Vice
Consul under General Roberts, United
States Consul to Victoria, B. c., and en-
joyed while there most enviable repu-
tation. Shortly after his return to North
Carolina, he located in Greenville, and
was in possession of large practice up
to the time of his demise
The subject of this notice was a
young man whom nature had endowed
with high qualities of head and heart
AS lawyer, his ability was recognized
by ALL AS speaker he was able and
eloquent. AS a man of honor, his mo-
tives were never questioned. AS a citi-
zen he possessed that confidence respect
and esteem which few men have ever en-
ioyed. He was man of most pleasing
address, and never failed to draw a host
of friends unto him wherever he went
His charity was without bounds. and to
the poor and needy he always extended
a helping hand. He possessed a brave
and tender heart, and was always on the
side of the wn-trodden and oppressed
Nothing mean, low or selfish could even
approach the head or heart of Mills
Eure. While he never connected him
self with any branch of the Christian
church, yet he was a close student of the
Bible and had an abiding faith in the
redeeming power of the son of God. He
was man of the strongest convictions
of right, and possessed the faculty of i'm
pressing his views upon other people. 1t
had been my privilege to know this man
intimately from his earliest childhood,
and it gives me pleasure to state that l
recognized in him the elements of a
brave and tender SOUL sympathetic
and unselfish nature, and strong and
manly man. A FRIEND.

In Justice to DR.. p tty !"

To the Editor: engagements that have
occupied my full time for past two weeks
have prevented my writing you in inter-
est OF justice to DR.. j. n. Petty, the vet
erinarian sent here early in August by
the State Department Of Agriculture, to
investigate the epidemic among the
horses.
With the correctness Of DR.. Petty's di-
agnosis Of the disease, or his theory
about the mosquitoes | have not informa-
ton sufficient to venture an opinion, but
desire to say for him that he began an
energetic investigation Immediately on
his arrival in Hyde county, prescribed
for such horses as he found sick, and
held post norton in the rain as he
declares in his letter. and without at
tempting while here to name the disease,
he did make recommendation in plain,
simple language free from technical Nex-
preston for treatment of the disease,
which was copied by order of County
Board of Health and posted at all the
postoffices in county.
We all regretted that the doctor did
not say longer or come prepared to
make full microscopic, or other investi-
cation on the spot, but think there was
reason in his desire to get where he
could make these Investigations with
fresh subjects, besides, l am informed it
Is impracticable to make such investiga-
tions satisfactorily without a laboratory.
We also regret that Mr.. Small and DR..
Petty should have any controversy about
this matter, and, knowing Mr.. Small as We
do, we are sure it is far from his de-
sire to do DIR. Petty any injustice but
was simply inspired by a commendable
zeal, which we all very much appreciat-
ed, in getting for the people OF his dis
itrict much needed help.
In this connection it is perhaps only
justice to say that Mr.. Pat
terson of the Agriculture De-
partment was prompt to answer the
communication addressed to his depart
ment by me, under direction of the Board
of Commissioners Of Hyde county, and
explained the impossibility Of sending the
State Veterinarian, but promised to Sc
cure competent man before he left Raj
eigh for his tour of farmers Institutes,
if possible. DR.. Petty was only few
days behind this communication, coming
as he explained to us, as soon as he pos
sibly could after seeing Mr.. Patterson.
Yours very truly,
S. S. MAN.

GainsbOrough Hats.

1t did not take the recovery Of the
long lost Gainsborough picture to bring
the GainsbOrOugh hat back to favor.
Truth to tell, it has never been out of
favor, nor has there been a time during
the past fifty years when the Gainsbor-
ough of conventional shape could not
have been worn with perfect propriety.
But the recovery of the picture
brought it into notice, and it only took
one glance at the stately, half smiling
duchess to show the women Of the new
century what a pretty hat had come
down to them-a gift from the past,
says the Pittsburg Dispatch.
The GainsbOrough hat, as worn by
the Duchess of Devonshire and as seen
in the paintings Of the great English
court painter, was a very large affair,
quite fiat in the brim and rather low in
the crown. To give it height the crown
was trimmed and the brim was made
unduIating by being turned up at one
side. In addition to this and as a
browning touch it was worn tilted upon
the head. It's distinguishing character
istic was it's trailing feathers, and these
today as well as then mark the hat as
distinctiyely that of the Gainsborough.

Nearly Fatal.

Darlington Democrat: Osee Nor
gan, IL years old, a son of James
Morgan, broke through the ice on the
mill pond Monday noon. Phil Allen,
a son of John Allen, who is a year or
two older than Osee, went to his res
cue but ventured too near the edge and
broke in too. They couldn't climb
out unassisted and nobody was near
so they began to shout for help. 1t
was needful that they come quickly
for ice water chills and stiffens one in
very few minutes. Their cries were
heard by several persons and within
a few minutes a number of people had
gathered on the bank and soon res
cued them from their perilous position.
They were chilled and their teeth
chartered. They were hastily taken to
Joe McCarville's residence near by,
stripped of their clothing, put into
bed and surrounded with appliances
for restoring natural warmth and cir
culation. DR.. Hogue was called and
gave every needed attention. The
boys seem fully recovered now but
they will probably have a wholes ONE
distrust of the ice for a while.
