Month of Fighting Brings Little
Change

London, Nov. 14.-S:15 p. m.
The battle of Flanders which
was brought about by the Ger
man attempt to advance to Dun
kirk and Calais, on the northern
coast o. France, commenced
just four weeks ago today and
despite terrific fighting and the
sacrifice of thousand of lives,
the two armies still hold virtual
ly the same positions as when
the first shot was fired.
After taking Antwerp and
Ostend, the German forces pro,
ceeded with little or no opposi
ton as far as Nieuport on the
User Canal. Here they found
against them the reformed
Belgian army as wei! as an
enfilading fire from British mon
itors and they were unable 10
make progress. Food then
completed the discontinue of
tile invaders and they commenc-
ed an effort to break through the
Allied line between Dixmude
and Ypres.
The Germans have had one or

reports, while they hold a part

Kidnapped For Twenty Years

i &C DSC NuNoCdtS
While at the depot looking for
news items last Saturday after
noon, an Advocate reporter
found Tins Gaddy, and in a
brief interview before the train
left, obtained some interesting
information about MIR. Gaddy's
career. He said that when he
was an eight-year-old hoy, in the
lower part of this county, e
years ago, he went with some
other boys to show at Clio.
, There he was kidnapped by Jeff
Williams and taken to his home
in Randolph county, N. Z. The
family made every effort to find
him, but failed.
He remained with Williams
till after he was 2l and then he
went to Thompson, Ga, where
he went to work in cotton mill
eight years as a weaver. A few
days ago he decided to come
back to Marlboro and try to find
MS relatives. AT Columbia he
met up with Jasper T. Esterling,
who was deputy sheriff here un
der Sheriff B. A. Rogers when
Gaddy was taken from Clio.
Mr.. Easterling is now a magis-
trate in Columbia. He gave
Gaddy a letter of introduction to
James F. McGilvray of Clio.
He arrived at Clio Friday, Oct.
10, and Mr.. McGilvary helped
him locate his living relatives.
He found that his father, George
Gaddy, was gored to death by a
bull number of years ago. He
found a brother, a sister, and
several other relatives.
When seen here Saturday, Mr..
Gaddy was on his way to Oar
ington. where he had secured a
D1SsF
part of the County,, came up on
the noon train from Drake and
saw her brother for a little while
for the first time since he so
mysteriously disappeared 26
years ago.

Storm lnterferes With Armies

London, Nov.15.-After iour
weeks of most desperate fight
ing there is a lull in the battle in
Flanders.
Little relief however, had come
for the men in the trenches, as
the artillery and rifle fire has
been replaced by a severe Nov
ember storm.
In some parts of England the
storm has become blizzard; on
the sea heavy gale RACES, and
the battlelields are getting their
full share of wind and rain.
For the most part the opposing
armies have been content to shell
each other at long range, but
the Germans have made several
attacks around Yprcs. which &C.
cording to the French general
staff, have been repulscd with
heavy losses.
Extensive defense works have
been erected along the Ysel
Canal and the French armies are
holding that line from the Be
gian borders south to the rivel
Disc, and pushing forward ap
proach works which place then
in better position for either de
fenSe or olfenSe.

Frank J. Terrell is KILLED Al
Chesterfield

Chesterfield
Chesterfield, Nov. 13.-Choos
ing to wreck his aeroplane and
risk his life rather than endange-
er the lives of several hundred
Chesterfield people, Frank ].
Terrell, the aviator, met death
here this afternoon when his
machine was telescoped and
and crashed to earth, burying
the driver beneath the machin-
. cry,
Mr.. Terrell had been making
flights al the county fair here
this week and was scheduled to
make his last appearance at 3
o'clock this afternoon. He rose
without mishap from the track,
which was massed with people
on either side. He rapidly rose
to d height of about 500 feet and
flew to the edge of town, circled
and headed back toward the
fair grounds.
AS he appeared in sight it was
seen that he was having trouble
with his engine.
The police had been unable
to hold back the crowd and the
track, on which he was to land,
was thronged with people. The
descent of the machine into the
crowd would have meant the
death of many persons.
Terrell quickly made the deci-
sion which cost him his life and
made him a hero. His engine
having stopped he gave the ma
chine quick twist to the right
and with the aeroplane was hurl-
ed to the ground a few feet from
the fence, against which the big
crowd was massed.
The following account was
given by the Advertiser:
AT 10y after
attempted his second flight and
had rised to a height of about
800 feet, when turning his ina
chine to re-circuit the fair
grounds, making dip" as he
came, the machine collapsed and
fell crushing to the ground
where ii now lies heap of shat
tered ruin.
The crowd witnessing the
flight numbered about 900 and
when the explosion occurred
and the machine darted sudden
ly downward. there went up a
great heart-renderihg cry from
the vast throng, for all knew
that the daring young aviator
had made hir last flight.
The machine reached the
ground in a cotton field adjoin
ing the fair grounds. 1t is
thought by many that Mr.. Ter
rell knew his machine had col
lapsed and was making an eff,
tort to effect a safe landing. II
is claimed by a number that he
signalled. His body was terri
bly, mangled and crushed. anc
while he breathed once OF
twice after striking the earth
life was practically extinct. Drs
Perry, Gardner and Teal were
quickly at his side and made
every effort possible but moth
ing could be done.
Mr.. Terrell is survived by hi
mother, who is eighty years o
age and his wife-a bride o
seven months. Mrs. Terrell
stood by her husband up to tn
time of the flight on Thursda
and was the first one to gree
him when he landed safely.
All day Friday the devote
young couple were promenac
