Census Taking.

Did the census man get your
name? If not, make it a point to
notify the one taking the census
IN your town or community.
There was a Rockingham family
out of the city when the census
was taken, but they thoughtfully
notified the census man when
they returned so that the CITY
could be given proper credit for
their names.
Let others who may not have
been, do like these people did.
Our county and town want to
get credit for all that is their due.

away from Bob, and then when
Bob cussed him, Steele slapped
him. Thereupon Bob struck
Steele across the face and con-
tinued to curse Steele and threat
en- to kill him. Kent says he told
Steele to shoot his brother if he
didn't behave; that he didn't have
any sense anyway.
Fussing continued, so report
from Kent is, until finally Kent
asked Steele to 60 and get help
so they could get the car out.
Steele and Kent then entered
Steele's Ford Coupe and the two
drove off. They stopped first at
Eli Brigman's house and later
went to Harrington's. Kent
states that he had no pistol, and
used no threats. When the
three Kent, Steele ard Harring-
tom returned to the Hudson, the
other two partners of Kent, were
gone, and that he, Kent, did not
see them again. Steele and Har-
rlngton got the Car out, that he

a Hudson Speedster that was
stalled in the sand, he stopped
and volunteered to help the man
get the Car out. After an exam
ination, he saw that a pair of
mules were necessary, so he told
the driver so, a man whose name
is ]. Kent Greer, of High Point.
Steele then said he would drive
to a neighboring house and get
a pair of mules. Greer told him
to hold on, that he wanted to 60
with him. Scarcely had Greer
seated himself beside Steele,
than he, as Steele testiies, showed
against his side a pistol, under
cover of his overcoat, and order.
ed him to SAY the right thing or
III Tx you" Steele perforCe had
to obey. He drove to Eli Brig
mans house, but Brigham had
no mules handy. He then drove
to Mr.. ]. A. Harrington's, and
when Henry Harrington came
out, Steele asked him to come
down and help get the car out.
Greer had been drinking, and
cursed around the Harrington
house, so much that Henry Har-
rington had to demonstrate with
him and ask him to desist.
While talking to Harrington,
Steele was allowed to get out of
the car for the purpose of telling
a negro standing near about get
ting the mules. He took the op-
portunity of whispering to the
negro, this mans got me cover
ed with a gun and can't say a
word. Tell Mr.. Henry to get his
gun and cover this man when |
come back" Steele then address
ed Harrington and remarked
that the negro has a message
for YOU" The man Greer then
called Steele to get back in and
the two drove a short distance
away to a colored mans house
where the two women of the
party were. Greer spoke to
them a minute or so, then told
Steele to get back in and they
would return and get Harring-
ton. Harrington met them with
a flash light (the negro not hav-
ing delivered the message), and
got in the car and the three re-
turned to the main road to the
Hudson. With Steele at the
wheel and Henry prizing with a
plank, they managed to clear the
car out. When Steele had first
come up, there were three men
at the car, but when he returned
with Harrington, the other two
men had gone; they had gone to
Diggs store, but came back just
after the Hudson had gone and
Steele and Harrington had gone.

Bad Fire.
A. M. Flowers Loses Barn with Horse,
S Cows, a Hogs Etc. Tuesday Night.

On Tuesday night about 9 O..
clock the large barn of Mr.. A.
M. Flowers, on Watson Heights,
was found to be on fire, and it
was destroyed with practically
nothing being saved. The build.
ing was OF heart pine, and with
the feed within was quick prey
to the flames. Fortunately, the
wind was blowing from the
direction of the house, and thus
saved that building.
The loss was large. Besides
all the the feed, farming utensils,
ETC., MIR. Flowers lost S head of
cows, one horse, a yearling, a calf
and four hogs, besides two COWS
being badly burned.

There is one less automobile
thief living today-and his sud-
den death should be a warning
against the stealing of cars.
On Friday night of last week
Rockingham and this entire
community were thrown into a
fever of excitement by the re-
port that Robert Steele, Jr., and
Henry Harrington had been held
up by highwaymen, themselves
knocked in the head and the
Steele Car stolen. The report
was that the stolen Car had pass.
ed through the city. The Sheriff
at once organized a posse, and in
the chase that followed the two
highwaymen, both young white
men of High Point, were over
taken about IA miles north of
Biscoe, and in order to protect
themselves the posse were forced
to shoot one of the highwaymen,
w. R. Clinard.
The other man was brought to
Rockingham and lodged in Jail.
This man, Robert Greer, remain
ed in Jail from Saturday until
Tuesday afternoon, at which
time his father, A. N. Greer,
brother Kent, and attorney Leoni-
das Williams came from High
Point and secured his temporary
release under $4,000 bond, for.
appearance at the preliminary
hearing this Thursday morning.
The third man was released
from High Point jail Sunday
under $1,000 bond. The Coro-
ner's jury Saturday held an in
quest and fully exonerated the
five Richmond county men who
composed the posse that killed
the men; the verdict was self.

After getting the car from the
sand, Greer asked Harrington
how much he owed him; Har
rington said nothing" Greer
then thanked Harrington anc
drove up this side road towards
the colored mans house where
the two women were, and Steele
and Harrington drove on up the
main Sandhill road. This is the
statement made by Mr.. Steele.
Kent Greer, whom Steele says
held him up and forced him to
do his bidding, makes a different
statement, as can be seen a little
further along in this account.
Steele Held Up.
Steele and Harrington then
drove up the road and returning
a few minutes later, Just about
dark, they were accosted by two
men who ran beside the car and
asked them to wait a minute.
When he slowed down, one of
the men, Robert Greer, threw a
pistol on them and ordered them
to stop and dismount. This was
probably a hundred yards or so
from where the Hudson had
been stalled. Of course the two
men quickly got out of the car.
Greer and his partner, w. R.
Clinard, disarmed Steele. After
this Steele, seeing his chance,
struck Greer in the face with his
fist, but was in turn knocked
across the left ear with the butt
of Greer's pistol. He then turn
ed and darting around the car.
ran into the woods. Greer snap
ped the pistol, which he had
taken from Steele, five times at
the fleeing man, but fortunately
the weapon was a Especial and
the cartridges did not fit snug up
and so would not fire.
After Steele got away, the men
turned to Harrington, and OBJ
serving he had a watch ordered
him to hand itover. Harrington,
than whom there is no more
quiet or inoffensive man living,
demonstrated and remarked you
are not going to take that too,
are you?" And for this remark
one of the men struck him across
the left eye with the pistol butt.
The two men then jumped into
Steele's Ford Coupe and drove
towards Rockingham. Both of
them were drinking, but were
not drunk, according to Steele
and Harrington.
Kent Greer's Version.
The foregoing in substance is
the statement of Robert Steele.
1t is understood that the version
of ]. Kent Greer, who is out un-
der $4,000 bond to answer to the
holdup charge, is different, as
regards MIR. Steele's statement
that he, Kent, forced Steele to
help him, and in substance is as
follows:
Kent Creer's Version: That his
car became stuck in the sand,
and his brother and Clinard were
so drunk that they could not
help him get the car out. That
his brother, Robert, had a knife
out and wanted to fight him and
that Bob and Clinard were very
quarrelsome. That Steele came
by about that time, and inquired
what the fuss was about. That
he told Steele that he couldn't
do anything with the two boys,
that they were drunk. That
Steele managed to get the knife
