The little child of Mr.. W. G..
Smith who was so badly burned
late Saturday afternoon died
Saturday night. Mr.. Smith has
lately come to Goldsboro from
Duplin county, we believe, and
while he has made but few &C
quaintances so far, still the dis
tressing accident which resulted
in the death of his child will
appeal to the generous minded
of the whole community, who
will extend their sympathies
without restraint.
MIR. Craig introduced a resolus
ton last week in the House at
Raleigh to inquire into the
action of the two judges of the
Supreme Court, State Auditor
and State Treasurer in paying
the claim of Shellish Commis
sioner Theophiius White when
the Legislature had expressly
forbidden the payment of the
claim, and provides for the i'm
parchment of both Furches and
Douglass. Another resolution
calls on White to turn the steamer
Lilly over to the State at once
and get q small sail boat for his
own uses
! The marriage Of Capt. J. j.
Powers to Mrs. Sudie Griswold
Hall occurred on Tuesday Jan. 20
at the residence of the BRIDE in
this city, Rev. M. Bradshaw, the
pastor of S.. Paul church, ohclat-
ing. The groom holds the position
of district engineer on the Sea-
board Air Line with headquarters
at Hamlet. He was at one time
engineer on the A. & N. @. R.. Z /,
and is known TO a numbsr OF
friends in this city, all of whom
together with the many admiring
acquaintance of the bride, wish
for them both long life and hap
piness.
The ARGUS is glad to chrenicle
the return of Mr.. Wm. j. Howell,
of the Salem church neighbour
hood, who has been living in Ar
kansas for several years, but who
now comes home again with his
wife aud family to live perma'
nently with US, having found by
travel and experience that there ii
, no place like Wayne county ant
no market town anywhere like
} Goldsboro for the farmers of it
! section. Mr.. Howell married II
Arkansas, but we are sure that hi
! good wife will find a warm wei
coma here, and as cordial friend
and as social neighbors as she LEI
behind her.
Owing to the public characte
of some Of it's requests, the WI
Of Judge Faircloth has assume
8 somewhat of a public nature. ]
may not, therefore, be uninteres'
: ing to let the public know til
g causes that led Mrs. Faircloth t
diss5 Mt therefrom. We learn ths
htr whole individual estate, whic
g was considerable, went to swe
r that of the Judges; that the proc
y erty devised to her, in pfyme'
for hers, was not of more tina
4 oue-third its value; that owing
her advanced age and feeble healtl
the property left her for her Lii
was very undesirable, to sa
nothing of her uncertain tenur'
70 that for a man with a net incon
of from SIS, 900 to $s, 900, $50
is III mght' to be an inadequa
q years support, especially whe
I the law will allow her as much
q ,one-half. She has no other PROF
~ erty, and would, under the vii
have nothing that she could oil
