It will be observed that prior
to the year 1929 the whole Of
North Carolina was known as
the Province OF North Carolina,
and the province included the
whole OF what is now the State of
Tennessee.
Upon the dissolution Of the
proprietary governmentin 1929,
the Province Of North Carolina
was divided into three counties
to wit: Albelnsrle. Bath and Clar-
endon. and from these thrse all
the counties in the state spring.
By the many subdivislons OF the
first three counties they lost
their existence In name. and the
name OF each exists only as a
part oi the past history and to
show from what sources other
countless can I've traced; these
three being treated as a common
source, like deraigning title to a
tract of land in the trial OF q law
suit.
1t is to be borne in m i n d

known as the western half OF the
State of North Carolina, and at
that time this county included
tho whole of the State Of Tennes.

was the Mississippi River. Atthis
early date there war no perma-
nent organization for civil gov

tion Of this frontier county, a.
this part OF the territory was in
habited by hostile Indians. and
il the pale faces desired to exer.
else dominion oyer it they daret
not interfere on account OF th'
great numbers aud hostile dispo
siton OF THE eavages.'
In the same year. (1729) Clar
enden county was sub. divided
, and the county OF New Hanoye
was formed out Of the western
part OF it's territory, and like th'
ancestor from which it was ta-
ken, the new county embraced
all the Western part of the Stat

The next county formed IN thi

ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 13-City
Hospital authorities instituted an in
vestigation of the escape from the in
stitution of George Mangus, a member
of the Atlantic City team of the Tri-
State League, following an operation.
Growing weary of his enforced in
activity, Mangus commanded fright
|ened nurse to give him his trousers,
and while she ran to sound the alarm
he fed barefooted through a window,
down the rear fire escape and along
Pacific avenue for two blocks to the
Hotel Lexington in his nightshirt and
trousers.
The hospital ambulance was ordered
out, with two orderlies. in pursuit
of the fleeing baseball player, but at
the Lexington it was found that
Mangus had barricaded himself In his
room. He capitulated after an angry
controversy conducted by way of the
transom, the orderlies threatening to
call in the police. He was taken
back to the hospital. II was said
to-day that his exploit had not caused
lserious consequences and that he is
rapidly recovering.
