Samuel Gordon Dead

The most widely known colored man
in New Jersey and the man in the
State House at Trenton who knew
more men connected with the State
government than any other, died last
Sunday in his home at Trenton.
Samuel Gordon was born in Phila-
delphia. He began his public career
as attendant in the House of Assem-
bly, in 1862. Next he went to Wash
ington as personal attendent to Pres
ident Lincoln. Being a barber he
shaved Lincoln. He returned to Tren-
ton and attended every Governor since
George B. Mcclellan, who was inaug-
urated in 1878. He was the attendant
and usher in the Governors reception
room in the State House and at Sea
Girt, the summer capital.
President Wilson offered to take
him to Washington but Sam had his
home in Trenton and old friends and
acquaintance.
Governors and Legislators came and
went but Sam was the only old famil-
lar face to be seen on visiting the cap
itol for forty years.
The editor of the Record had a talk
with Sam last winter as to how long
he had been there. When he learned
we were from Penns Grove, Sam said
81 remember Penns Grove, | was there
with Gov. Albeit when he went there
to investigate the controversy between
New Jersey and Delaware, thirty
years ago" He had a good memory
for persons and events and was a val
liable mar for all Governors.

Delaware's Population

With the Delaware population of

Census Bureau, an increase of 1920,

ture Bureau that the characteristics

The Penn's Grove record., 1920-07-16

Last winter when persons were
notified to move or pay more rent in
cities the Legislators yielded to clam
or and passed a law extending from
three months the period required for
landlords to notify tenants. The Su-
prone Court has decided the law un-
constitutional. The rights of contract
was destroyed by the law and where
a contract was made from month to
month it could not be upset by legis-
lators.

CHAPTER VI.

Fitzhugh began TO fret and fume at
his irksome employment. He was
coming TO believe he had made a mis-
take In adopting such slow means to
an eagerly desired end when, In TIE
NTH week, something occurred that
dispelled his growing pessimism. it
was warm Saturday night, and
when he came from the broillng
kitchen with his coat under his arm.
dripping with perspration, his en-
ployer met him and handed him eight
dollars, five of which he promptly
placed between the leaves of his saw
ings handbook, which now showed a
balance Of twenty dollars.
AS he nodded goodnight to his EN-
ployer he noticed hatchet-faced man
In a checker-board suit on one Of the
Iunch-counter stools. Before Fitzhugh
reached Van Buren, street this man
confronted him and, smiling as cor
daily as his hard face would permit,
asked:
"How much does the Greek pay
your"
According to my desert. my solicit
Gus friend ! draw the munificent sal.
ary of eight dollars each week."
The questioner pushed back his hat
and chewed his cigar. And his head
bobbed up and down as he scanned the
dishwasher from top to toe.
II s'pose you1l do" he finally de-
m
Got some'in' want to show you"
He led the way up State street, and
near Jackson boulevard stopped be-
fore a gold-and-white restaurant, gilt
tering with electric lights, brand new
and spick and span. Across the plate
glass window In letters three feet high
was the name, "Max's."
"See that? That's me. I'm Max"
He tapped his chest proudly. you've
got TO make that name famous. Tn
derstand me? Famous! Gomez Come
long inside and I'll tell you all bout
It."
They went in, and Mr.. Max outlined
his plan. Briefly, 1t was this: Fitz-
hugh, after visit to a barber. was TO
apparel himself in distinguished garb.
and with an arstocratic demeanor,
was to promenade State street for five
hours daily. Painted In white letters
on the back of. his frock-coat would

"Um-hum," observed Fitzhugh.
drawing reflectively on his cigar. "How
much do get for this?"
well, let me see-say fifteen
week. How's that strike your"
Not favorably. Make it thirty and
the deals closed" And even as he
spoke Fitzhugh was wondering II his
beard sufficiently disguised him. He
decided 1t did. Besides, there were
the theatrical possibilities Of the
thing, and this appealed strongly to
his love for make-believe.
After some further bargaining 1t was
agreed he was to receive twenty dollars
the first week and. II employed longer.
thirty dollars each for all subsequent
weeks.
He reported for work Monday morn
ing. Accompanied by Max, he went
to BARRIERS shop and afterward to a
clothing establishment where ready
made apparel of the better class was
sold. About eleven O'Clock he stepped
from the restaurant, paused In the ves-
tibule, took pair Of new chamois
gloves from a pocket and began draw
ing them on. When ne stepped our
