Expresses His Dying Wish.

True. the block of granite which now
does sentinel duty over. .Nyeis grave in
the lonely country churchyard at Arden
mutely expresses the dying wishes of
the great humorist. but we would not be
disregarding those wishes were We to
erect, by means of popular subscription.
a marble shaft which would in some
measure express the regard and venera-
ton We feel for the man with whom all
OF us laughed and wept by turns.
1T is fitting and proper that the move
ment to perpetuate the memory of Nye
should find its reincarnation here. for
he was one of us. The struggling
vicisstudes of his early journalistic days
could not dim the light of genius which
shone so brightly in later years. We
should not hesitate to go on record here
and now, representing the North Carolina
Press Association, as setting foot a
movement to erect at our state capi-
tai a hitting monument to one Of the
greatest and most gifted humorists the
world has ever known"
