DEATH OF PROF. o. w. CARR.
County Who Will BE Greatly
Missed
Especial to News and ObserverJ

Especial to News and Observer
High Point, n. c., August 21.-Sun-
day morning at 4 o'clock Prof. Q. w.
Carr a prominent citizen of Randolph
county, died at his home i'm Trinity
from pulmonary trouble, His death
brings sorrow to all who knew him,
for he was universally loved. The
following sketch of his life is given
by q lifelong friend:
Prof. Obed William Carr was born in
Duplin county \. c., on the 18th day
of March in the year 1898. He
was married to Miss RoXanna M.
Leach of Trinity. Randolph county,
who with three children to-day mourn
their irreparable loss He is also SUI
vived by a brother and sister, both of
whom live in Duplin county. Mr..
Carr received his early education at
Sprunt Hill Institute in DupIin county,
and his degree at then Trinity College
at Trinity, graduating there during
the war when he enlisted and served
as long as his health would permit
After the war Mr.. Carr returned to
Trinity and accepted the chair in
Greek supplying the same~for many
years. He served his district in the
Senate at one time with distinc-
ton. Some thirty years ago he and
Mr.. Shaw, now Of this place. engaged
in the insurance business, the style
OF the hrm belng .. w. carr Il Co,
which to-day bears the same name
Up to about ten years ago ne and Mr.
Shaw worked the insurance business
together and during that long period
not an unpleasant work was uttered
by Mr.. Carr, so Mr.. Shaw feelingly
told me. He was a man that would
Tebuke wrong at all times yet he was
always willing to give his fellOw-mau
more than one chance before con-
demning him. His libeTality often eX-
tended beyond his means. His death
brings sorrow to all who knew him.
Mr.. Carr was an active member of
the company which bears his name
up to eighteen months ago, when i'll
health forced him to his home at
Trinity. remainin~ there until death.
The funeral occurred this afternoon
at 3 o'clock at Trinity
In December the Sunday school
union meeting of the Piedmont Bap-
fist Association meets with the First
Baptist church of thi splace.
Special rates have been secured
from the Ohio and Mississippi gate
ways to High Point on certain dates
during the coming fall. This is eX
pected to h"i~~. a large number of
home-seekers to this place. The rate
is exceedingly low, being only so per
cent. of the standard one-way rate
from initial points. The rate from
Cincinnati, for instance, is only $12 40,
with limit of II days.
