The memory of Deborah Sampson
Gannett, the woman soldier of the
revolutionary war who fought under
The name Of Robert Shurtleff. was hon
ored lately at a banquet at Sharon,
Mass, where she lived more than 40
years. Her body lies in Rockbridge
cemetery in that town, where the
grave is frequently pointed out to
visitors. The banqueting hall was
decorated with the national colors,
and intermingled in large letters were
the historic names: Deborah Samp-
son, Mary Lyon, Anne Hutchingson
and Hannah Dustin. In a conspicuous
place was placard on which were the
words: 81 Was There" This referred
to Deborah SIMPSONS oft-repeated
saying in her lectures on the battles in
which she had participated while
dressed as man. One of the speakers
during the evening suggested that
these words be placed upon Sharon's
town seal.

Senator Thomas Macdonald Patter-

has become noted for two character

NEW RAILROAD IN DUPLIN.
TO Run From Point on w. w and Connect
With the Gay Lumber Co.

Mr.. S. o. Middleton, of Dupln, who
has been a visitor in the city, says the
people of his county are deeply inter-
ested in new railroad that will shortly
be hIilt.
1t is proposed to build the line from
some point on the Wilmington and We'll
don railroad in Duplin county between
1eachey's and Wallace and connect with
the road of the Gay Lumber Company
at point on the Northeast river, it's
present terminus. This road runs TO
Kinston and already in operation a
distance of 20A miles. The Kinston
Carolina railroad is said to be back or
the enterprise, though Wilmington peo-
pie are interested in the Duplin end of
it. When completed this road will be
about 50 miles in length.
Several big lumber companies have
purcha sed large tracts of timber lands in
Duplin and it is proposed to run the road
through this territory and connect with
the road of the Gay Lumber Company,
at the same time opening up a fertile
county The Wilmington Lumber con-
Germs want the timber, and it will be
necessary to build the road to get at it.
The new Poad will be beneficial alike to
KinstOn and Wilmington.
