BISHOP KILGO'S STATEMENT

His Official Wltndrawal From Inn
ity Was Not Caused by Anything
Which Took Place During the re
cent Commencement
Bishop John c. Kilgo in North Car
DINA Christian Advocate.
The utter misstatements OF some
persons and the untrue impressions
which they seem DESTROYS to produce
move me to make this brief state-
ment. There are others who mlgn11
have made it, and perhaps shoulo
have made it. That there has ever
been at any time a misunderstanding
Of a contention between me ana the
trustees of Trinity college on any
matter is a declaration which IS Ut
terly untrue and without any basis
Of fact. That there was a call meet
, ing of the trustees to take acton on
matters connected with, degrees
granted at the last commencement at
Trinity is absolutely an inventlon
with not a single thing to justify 1t.
That my official withdrawal from
Trinity was caused by anything
which took place during the. recent
commencement is total mlsrepre-
sentation. This decision was made
upon facts which have taken place
since commencement and only IN the
most foreign sense has even enron
illogical relation to commencement
To specify no further these are am
ply sufficient to show our people the
utter Misrepresentation made &c
them. I do not deem it necessary te
make public my real reason for with
drawing official connection with the
college. All intelligent and TAR
minded persons must know that, Judg
ed in the light Of nearly rs years o.
devotion and unselfish service tt
Trinity college, only the most vita
reasons could have moved me to tak'
this step. l have good conscience
in this record, and can with all truth
fulness say have never had a single
selfish motive in anything hav'
undertaken for the college, nor hav'
I ever had the least temptation t.
swerve from the path of righteous
ness to attain public favor or pre-
serve even sacred friendships. In al
such matters I. have followed a pol
icy of private dealings, leaving 9th
ers to rush before the public, an
in this instance others must bear tn
responsibility for the reckless pub
licity to it. My convictions on ed
: ucation are as deep and solid as j
!. is possible for them to be and I shall
not shift them for any persons o
other earthly reasons.

To the Editor Of The Robesonian:
Mr.. Editor will you please find
space in your paper for these few
lines.
What is to become Of this world?
AS we pass through the vista of time
and let our mind wonder back oc-
casionally over the back then let our
mind pass into the future, we can
not see any hopes, for some folks
will pass you by in the road and not
speak, even some Of US dearly broth
ers, we mean pure-blood kin. that
will do this very thing. Some OF them
claim children Of God, still they go
on in this way and nave absolutely
turned their backs on home and par
ents, brothers and sisters and have
gone, gone headlong into the world,
living in this way, still claiming a
Christian life, for the Holy Writ
tells he that says he love his God
and hate his brother is liar and the
truth is not in him. He that knoweth
his Masters will and doeth it not
shall be beaten with many stripes
We know of a man who was on his
death bed and sent for his brother
to come that he might speak to him
once more before crossing over into
eternity, and the brother would not

A Shocking Tragedy Recalled

In Thursdays Robesonian mention
was made Of the death in Asheville
Of Mr.. P. P. Green, who made his
home in Lumberton with his family
for several years. In this connection
the following from "Just Odds and
Ends" column in Fridays Whining
ton Star will be of special interest:
"The death Of Mr.. P. P. Green at
Asheville Wednesday. which called his
brother, Mr.. J. P. Green Of Wrights-
Vile Beach, on sudden and sad mis-
sion to the mountain city early Thurs
day morning, recalls one of the most
shocking tragedies in the late history
Of North Carolina and one Of the
most extraordinary nature. Most
! readers Of newspapers in North Car
DINA read about it. The home of the
Greens was near the Southern rail
road track in the vicinity Of Swan
nanoa, near Ashevllle. The baby OF
the household was bright and prom.
ising girl of 16 or II years, the only
girl and the idol Of family of COCO
size. One day some ten years ago
she ard a brother or friend were
standing on the embankment beside
the railroad track seeing a train pass
!, Seeing some friends on the train, she
! was innocentlv and gleefully waving
her hand at them, when beast ir
the form of a man, riding on the
train, saw her, and, according to the
story of the tragedy, remarked
Watch me make her jump. Where
upon he pointed a revolver at her ano
fired. She dropped in her tracks, and
died with the innocent smile Of youth
and sweetness still on her face, never
knowing why her life was thus rude
| ly taken. The tragedy brought q
shadow over the home that has never
lifted. The culprit was tried, con.
victed and sentenced to a term in the
penitentiary, served few years and
was pardoned. The girl was a sister
of Mr.. J. P. Green now we'll known
in Wilmington.

ertheless, from saying that the end is
in sight, or that Won Hindenburg's
legions will be swept away in the
next month Or two. The truth prob
ably is-and the truth is what We are
concerned in knowing that we are
needed to deliver the decisive stroke.
A prominent English military author
ity some time ago pointed out that
Won Hindenburg had prepared anoth-
er ard stronger line of defense in the
rear of his present one, on which he
would retire gradually, and that these
tactics could be repeated indefinitely
until the Allies were furnished with
heavy reserve which could be used
to transform partial successes into
complete and overwhelming ones.
If the war continues next year, as
now seems probable, we will be able
to throw the additional requisite
weight into France. The German lines
will be "impregnable" only if we fail
to do our duty If we do not, they
NAV be.

Says Germans Are Ready for Peace
In it's review of the third year Of the
world war the Berlin Tageblatt points
out that the armies of Germany and
her allies have conquered more than
half a million square kilometres of
Entente territory and asserts that the
military strength Of the Central pow
ers instead Of decreasing has increas-
ed while that of France says the
German people has announced it's read

hope that common sense and sin
cere desire for the cessation of hos

Amy Officers Returned From France

Baltimore Sun.
Secretary Baker takes the trouble
To deny officially newspaper reports
which ascribed to members of our mil
itary mission, just returned from
France, the opinion that the German
lines on the west front are "irnpreg-
zaahle" and to contradict the state
ment that their observations had
made them pessimistic as to the
chances Of smashing through. On the
contrary, those who have talked con-
fidentially with members of the mis-
sion declare that "some Of the army
officers who inspected the French
front are confident that the Germans
cannot break through the Allied line,
and are just as confident that the
German line will have to give way
befo~e the Allied offensive"
In point of fact, nothing is
+'impregnable" nowadays. The Ger
man defensive is admittedly strong
as strong as war science can make
it. But the Allied man power and
gun power is stronger, and it has
already forced the Germans to yield
a large amount Of territory. And
the indications are that there will be
still another strategic" retreat. Ar
mics do not retire from "impregna-
BILE" positions. There can be no "pes.
simism" as to the final result, since
the final result is simply a question
of military arithmetic-or four be
ing more than two.
