Mrs. q B. Terry Dead.
(Contributedl

Mrs, Ann Eliza Terry, wife Of c. B.
Terry died at her residence in Hamlet
April 10th at 800 o'clock at the age Of 81
years. Mrs. Terry had been i'll about
two weeks, First she was taken with
pneumonia and rallied and it seemed that
she would recover, but was stricken with
paralysis on Monday from which death
came. All that skilled physicians and
nurses and loving hands could do was
done for her, but to no avail.
Mrs Terry was Miss Ann Eliza Hicks
and was married in December, 1870, to
Mr.. c. B. Terry. Nine children we're
born to them, two Of whom died in in.
fancy. Her husband and all the other
children were at her bedside.
The deceased is survived by her hus-
band, five sons, two daughters, three sis
tiers and three brothers. Her sons and
daughters are: M. E. Terry,of ST. Paul,W.
H. Terry, of Lancaster. S. c., DR.. w. c.
Terry, Hamlet, R. B. Terry, High Point
L. R. Terry, High Point, Miss Ida Terry,
Hamlet, Mrs. Ira Davis, Lumberton. Her
sisters are: Mrs. E. E. Hamer, Mrs. 2. o:
Ellerbe and Mrs. A. A. Covington. Her
brothers are Mr.. A. A. Hicks and Mr.. w.
c. Hicks, Of Rockingham, and Mr.. H. /.
Hicks, of Meridian, Miss.
Mrs. Terry lived devoted christian
life having joined the Methodist church
in early life. She spentmost of her ener-
gies in her own home as her health never
permitted public activities. Her beauti-
full christian character and the noble
ideals that she instilled in the lives of her
noble sons and daughters will still live on
and be felt by those who know them.
The many beautiful. floral designs be-
spoke the love and esteem in which she
was held by her friends.
The funeral services were conducted at
the residence April 1lth by her pastor,
Rev, ]. H. Buffaloe, assisted by Rev. A.
T. Young and Rev. Page. Her five sons
and son-in-law, Mr.. Ira Davis, were the

Editorial Opinion
WILL Ir COME TO THIS:
"IIE KEPT lis OFT OF PEACE

From the New York sun.
Yesterdays news from the headquar-
ters Of delay represented the principal
figures at the Peace Conference as
unanimous only in their grave concern
over the situation in Hungary. As TO
the responsibility for that unfortunate
situation there is apparently in Paris
as elsewhere, a difference Of opinion.
The followers and supporters of Presl-
dent Wilson are inclined TO attribute
the slow progress toward peace to the
rigidily Of French and perhaps English
demands for rcparalion from Germany.
on the other hand the European
view puts the blame directly upon
President Wilson's insistence That mere
shall be no treaty Of peace which does
no include the definitely and elaborately
completed covenant or constitution OF
his particular plan for a League Of Ma
tions.
It is becoming more and more evil

Dor, the World which announced yes
terday that what the men who marched
up Firth avenue had been fighting for
was ito win for mankind a League or
Nations based upon the immortal prin-
ciples Of the Declaration Of lndepen-
dencc."
Can any intelligent human being sup
pose that the solidarity and co-opera-
tive harmony among the great nations
mainly responsible for the maintenance
OF the WilsOnian League will be greater
under strain Of diverging national inter-
ests in the future than at present dur
