1t is with real regret that the
ARGUS chronicles the removal
from this cnunty-the Dudley
section-to Wilson county of one
of our best young farmers and
representative citizens Mr.. Jas.
NJ. Wigglns, who recently pur-
chased the valuable farm of the
late Calvin Barnes, near Wilson,
and has moved there his family
aud will make it his permanent
home. They take with them the
cordial good wishes of hosts of
friends in their old neighborhood
and throughout the couaty of
Wayne.
The death of Mrs. Kate Moore,
the estimable wife OF our good
friend Robert Moore, of Brog-
den township, occurred at their
home, at Genoa, last night, of
pneumonia, aged so years. Mrs.
Moore was a sister of Mr.. Jesse
T. Hollowell, formerly of this
county, but now OF High Point,
and was an exemplary Christian,
a good neighnor, a loving wife
and unselfish friend. She was a
member Of the Society of Friends
and will be greatly missed in her
neighborhood. The funeral will
be held at Woodland tomorrow.
