The Robesonian. [volume] (Lumberton, N.C.) 1870-current, 1908-09-07


Laura Blanche Price will be
greatly benefited by such asso-
citation. l hope that Miss Nc
MILAN will be pleased with Ala
bama, and | am sure that the
trustees and patrons Of that eX-
cellent school may we'll felicitate
themselves upon being so for
tunate as to secure the services
Of so worthy and accomplished a
teacher. Success and happiness
to Miss Minnie. | regard her
father as one of the most worthy
men, not only of his county, but
of the State. The great county
of Robson, my native county
and his, could do herself no
greater honor than to send him
to the General Assembly to aid
in formulating or improving her
laws. He has a first-class edu-
cation, excellent manners, a level
head and a pure heart. Besides,
he has experience, and would
have influence with good men
from the start. Give this grand
old veteran a chance and you,
my countrymen, will be proud
of his record.
The Western Methodist gives
an interesting sketch of Rev.
James Clinton Rhodes, eldest son
of DR.. Richard C. Rhodes, for
merly of Lumberton. He is in
poor health, confined to the
house. He was said by the edi-
tor, who had visited the home,
to be poor in this worlds goods
but rich in his children" He
had three preacher sons, all of
whom were graduates of Van
derbilt University with the de-
gree of A. B., and two of them
had won the title of A. M. and
the third, who is quite young
man, will return this fall to la
Dor for his masters degree. AS
these boys are grandsons of my
sister, I have a pardonable pride
in writing of their achievements.
One of them is secretary Of the
students feature of the Y. M.
C. A. for Arkansas; one is assist
ant professor of biology in a col.
lege in Mississippi, and the thirC
goes back to the University
Their father has had some of the
best appointments in his confer
ence. His address is Arkadel
phia, Ark.
Wishing The Robesonian and it
readers prosperity and happi
ness, | am,
Yours Cordially,
A. L. Davis.
