Turkey and that, therefore, the latter
ia justified in refusing to recoup the
United States for the money expend-
ed in her rescue. A high Turkish
official this morning informed a re-
preventative of the Associated Press
that the Turkish resistance of any
! claims would be based upon the con-
tentions, first, that Miss Stone, al
though warned of the dangers OF the
road, insisted on travelling; second,
that she did not notify the authorities
of her intention, in order to obtain an
escort which precaution even the
foreign consuls always take when
travelling in such outlying, insecure
districts of the empire, and third,
that the brigands who kidnapped
Miss Stone and her companion were
Bulearians, and that the coup was
planned in Bulgaria.
Constantinople, Oct. 31-It is again
rumored that Madam Tsilka, the
companion of Miss Stone, and her
child, born since her capture by the
brigande, are dead.

''scraps Of History"
GREGORY CLARK

~--------
So long time has passed since the
death cf this splendid specimen OF
the Revolutionary patriot that little
can be learned of his history.
Tradition ranks him among the
more gallant heroes of the War of In
dependence while the record is silent
as to his glorious achievements it
must be true that be was brave and
dashing Continental officer.
1t is known that he cane from
Sampson county, in North Caroline.
and that be served under Greene
until the close of hostilities when be
was hono-ably discharged at Poca-
| tsligo in Beaufort county. He
returned to his home, but soon after
moved back to Pocataligo with his
father, Charles Clark, and lived there
two years. They then moved to
Lexington and Gregory, or "Grigg"
Clark as he was familiarly called,
camped frat on the south side CT
Congaree creek where the road from
Orapgeburg to Lexington crosses
that stream and near the old Henry
Bachmsn place. Mr.. George Shea y
lives now near the spot where he
first "settled". Just bow long he
remained here is not told but he
moved subsequently to Turkey creek,
near Nazareth church, six miles from
Lexington G. H., on the Bsrpwell
road.
He had married Lurenia Parker
before leaving North Carolina. Eight
children were born to this venerable
pair, two boys and six girls.
Parker moved west. Cornelius
married Nancy Lee; Sarah was mar
ried to John Berry; Rachel to Johna-
than Taylor; Clara to Mr.. Seay;
Nancy to David Shots; Fannie and
Katie were married to two brothers
Arnold. Carnelius reared twelve
children most of whom moved west.
James J. and Andrew j., remained
in Lexington.
Col. James J. Clark was in public
life for long while and was widely
and favorably known. he was post
master for part of his life and served
efficiently as Magistrate for time.
He was once elected to the House of
Representatives. He was highly
respected and useful man. His
eleven children are all still living and
are among our best people.
Andrew j., was worthy son OF a
line CT patriots and left an honored
name. He reared twelve children all
of whom are living.
The descendants of the subject of |
this brief sketch are very numerous
and are worthy scions Of the honored
fam ly tree.
"Grigg" lived to be eighty years
old and died from an injury received
in falling from his door, his hip being
fractured. He and his wife are
buried at Nazareth church.
There are those now living who
have heard "grandfsther Grigg" re-
late with thrilling interest many OF
the stirring incidents of the Re7o-
lutionary struggle and have listened
with rapture as he sang his old war
He was widely known and
exceedingly popular. His hospitality
amounting almost to prodigality was
proverbial. He had perhaps the
finest orchard in the county and was
fond of his "hard Cider" and all his
friends and neighbors were as vel
come to his refreshing and harmless
drinks as they were to the sparkling
waters of Turkey creek. His kind
ness snd generosity endeared him to
every body and his memory is cher
isbed fondly till now. W. T. B.
