Lord, How this world is given
to lying!' There be many sorts
of liars, and the greatest of these
is your "piscatory" liar. In his
highest perfection ones heart
warns to him in loving admira-
ton. Wherefore we are grieved
beyond measure to learn from a
communication which appears
elsewhere in this paper that Max
ton has some piscatory liars who
are perhaps a shade better than
any who have their local habita-
ton in Lumberton. Lumberton
being right on a noble stream
Well stocked with fish, too. and
1lshing parties going out from
here two or three times every
while! It's a bloomin' shame.
We move you, sirs, that the YER
satile gentleman who writes in.
terestingly about fish, fishing and
fish liars in this issue be called
upon to redeem the reputation OF
Lumberton along this line.
The Robesonian. [volume] (Lumberton, N.C.) 1870-current, 1909-04-22

We believe we voice a very
general sentiment when we say
that Lumberton regrets very
much that Mr.. C. H. Morrow has
decided to leave the town. 1t
has been an open secret for some
time that he had resigned his
position as cashier of the Bank of
Lumberton and would leave as
soon as his successor was elected,
but we have not been at liberty
to announce the fact until now.
That Mr.. Morrow will succeed
wherever he goes no one VINO
knows anything of his extra ordi.
nary business ability and capacity
for work doubts for a moment,
Here's luck to him.

Do a rabbit swim regularly,

jump into Lumber river the other

may be a common stunt of the
Lepus sylvaticus, for aught we
know; but anyway, that's what
this particular one did.
