Tho End and the Beginning.
When Murrcll was brought TO trial
his lawyers we're able TO produce a
host Of witnesses whose sworn testi-
mony showed that so simple a thing
as perjury had no terrors for them,
Ills fight for liberty was waged in and
out OF court with incredible bitter
ness. and, as Judge and Jury were
only human, the outlaw escaped with
the relatively light sentence OF twelve
years imprisonment; he died, how
ever. before tho expiration OF his
term.
The Judge. when he returned to
Raleigh, resumed his own name OF
Turberyille, and he allowed it to be
known that he would not be offended
by the prefix Of General. During his
absence he mad accumulated wealth
Of evidence of undoubted authenticity,
with the result that his claim against
the Fentress estate was sustained by
the courts, and when The Oaks with
fits stock and slaves was offered for
sale, no, as the principal creditor,
was able TO buy it in.
One OF his first acts after taking
possession OF the property was TO
have Mahaffy reinforced in the. grove
Of oaks below his bedroom windows,
and he marked the spot with a great
square of granite. The Judge, Wsibly
shaken by his emotions, saw the
massive boulder 80 into place.

OF him who lies beneath it--but en-

Then when the bitter struggle came
and he was wrenched and tortured by
longings, his strength was in remem
bering his promise to the dead man
and 1t was his custom to so out under
the oaks and pace to and fro beside
Mahafy's grave until he had gained
the mastery Of himself. Only Yancs
and Hannibal knew how fierce tht

The election on Tuesday in Middle

Republican vote and a large increase
for the Democratic candidates. The
National Progressive party polled a
large vote, which was mainly RESPONSE
BILE for the small Republican majority
for Fletcher for governor. Judge John
E. Weeks was elected town representa-

Brookins. Both candidates worked
hard, which is evidenced by the large
vote cast. Rev. Metzger, the Progress

good vote, despite the fact that the
party was but recently organized in

It sounds good. But the measures he

his plan is slower than the ordinary
process Of amending state constitutions
In other words. like his talk about
