aboard the Iroquois had played Aloha
De and Aud Lang syne, and the great
fleet week in Honolulu had come to a
pleasant and historic end.
The departure Of the feet had its
phases of excitement and interest even
as its arrival had. The spectators were
amazed at the ease with which fifteen
great ships of war, lying at anchor
ages almost as intricate as the proverb-
ial mess of eels, could get under way
and steam into prescribed formation,
and all within half an hour. There
was no hurrying of one vessel to catch
UP, or of another tagging. Each YES
sci got under way and steamed along
steadily in the general direction to-
ward which the flagship had started,
and, presto, after brief closing of
ones eyes there was the great armada
in single line, symmetrically perfect.
While the Troquois was cruising
about the warships many alohas were
shouted from the little vessel. and in
response came the waving of caps and
here and there cheers. AS the Ken
lucky was passed the band, at the re-
quest of L. Tenney Peck, played my
Old Kentucky Home,' and cheers fol
lowed. Mar. Peck said that when the
fleet arrived last week, the captain of
the Kentucky was so enraptured with
the rendition of MY Old Kentucky
Home by Berger's band as it played
from the deck of the Mauna Loa, that
he had the battleship's band assembled
on the quarterback, and when Berger
had finished the captain said to the
marine musicians, There, that is the
way to play My Old Kentucky
Home AS the Virginia was passed
Dixie was played. and cheers an
swered.
All the time the feet was getting
under way daylight fireworks were dis
played and the air was filled with lit
tie balloons transporting in mid air
American and japanese flags. The
daylight fireworks were an attraction
in themselves, and quite a compliment
on the part of the Japanese toward
the fleet.

sci about. Exclamations of admiration
were heard on all sides as the huge
vessel gracefully swung entirely about
as if resting on a central pivot. The
vessels position appeared not to move
a foot. When her bow was pointing
seward, she gathered Roadway and
steamed outside. AS the flagship pass
ed each vessel bands played the Star
Spangled Banner in honor of the Com
mander- in Chief. The Wisconsin was
the last to leave the harbor.
At s O'Clock last night the sky was
suddenly illuminated by shafts of
light from the searchlights of the fleet.
The al1-penetrating shafts lighted up
the clouds, and when lowered picked
up the mountains. They criss-crossed
and breasted, and altogether made a
beautiful spectacle. The lights were
so powerful that when the reffectors
were turned full in into ones eyes it
was an almost binding glare. The
searchlight drill attracted general at
tention in town. At first it was thought
that the Minnesota was playing her
lights on the shore scenery, but they
were from the fleet sure enough. Then
at 8:15 the arrangement of search
lights at the rear of the fleet showed
that the fleet was travelling in two col
umns, the battleships of the rearguard
only using searchIights.

leading to Morganton, receiving

On Wednesday morning, July
8th, Mrs Murphy was very sick, SO
low that she WAS helpless and her
nurses had to use the sheet to turn
her in the bed. DR.. Justice, of
Marion, one of the best physicians
IN the place, was attending her.
The family did not think she could
get we'll. Early in the morning
when all were gathered around her
bed a voice spoke to her saying:
"Would you be willing to tell ev-
erybody of your healing if you
were to be healed?" Yes said
Mrs. Murphy, II would do or say
any thing thatswould be for the
glory of God" "Then," said the
voice, would you prove your
healing by getting up and walking
to q. G. Conley's gate and back"
IA distance of one.half mile. y
"Yes," said she. Then said the
voice, "start instantly" She
started without dressing and bare.
footed. In the yard she stopped,
was dressed and put on her shoes
herself and continued her journey.
Friends went with her on the way
there and return. Her strength
increased, her friends having to
walk fast to keep up with her on
her return. She sat down and
sang and played several pieces of
music, something she had not
done before.
On Sunday, the 18th, I visited
her, found her happy and walking
nearly all time, shouting and talk
ing to every one who came to see
her, and praising God for healing
her. Quite number of friends
have visited her. Mrs. Murphy
had been in feeble health for years
and all are astonished at her
strength. She is a woman that
