CHURCH ON SAME SITE IFS YEARS

First Presbyterian Church on Mar
ket street is one OF the land marks OF
Wilmington. For one hundred and
sevonty-fve years this church has
occuuied this position and continued
a faithful ministry TO the city The
residential section has been moved
farther away from this vicinity each
year but the old church. while SER
iously affected by it's changed and
limited field, has been inclined to hold
out against these inroads
Few realize the voncrableness of
this organization. Nearly 10 years
before the prcsbyterians founded
Princeton College and about 40 years
before the Declaration of American
Independence was signed a number OF
Presbyterian settlers in this commune
ity established this place of worship
So that a republican form Of govern
ment was sustained here before the
colonies entered into such compact.
II Is a history in which not only Will

Itself can take pride Seven other

Councilman Slower stated that he
understood that a movement had been
set on foot by the Board Of Trade to
boost Wilmington and that all kinds
of news of the city and its laws was
TO be sent broadcast throughout the
country. and that If this was SO he
thought IL would be working directly
against the Board of Trade to grant

MURDER
THEORY is
ADVANCED

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEWARK, Nov. Swallowing an
investigation which lasted pracuca.-
ly all day state Detective Frank Me-
Coy stated last night that he was
convinced that the wounds found on

covered early Wednesday morning

lie admitted that he had some clues
that he desired TO work out but de-
clined to give an intimation Of what
they are at this time.
As the murder theory is now
generally accepted interest IN the
case has greatly increased aud it was
the general topic of discussion i'm
Newark last night While a motiv3
Is lacking at this time Il is felt that
the investigation will soon develop
a motive for the assault, II there
was one. The man as was stated BY
his brother, had no enemies as far
as any one knew. but the fact re-
mains that all the circumstances sur
rounding the mysterious case point
to an assault as the only solution.
One of the principal arguments
against the accident theory Is the
mans cap which State Detective Nc
Coy took charge OF today. The cap
was found at least six feet from he
small pool OF water where Vansant
was found face down. and has much
blood on it. Many persons familiar
with the circumstances are OF the
opinion that Vansant was assaulted
some where else and wandered to the
little pool TO wash the blood from
his face and while doing so fell face
downward from weakness and breathed
in enough of the water and sand TO
cause his death The one weak point
In this theory, however, is the fact
that as far as is known no trial of
blood has been found leading to the
water pool
One new development yesterday
afternoon was the finding Of a per-
son who saw Vansant after he left
