Last Friday two young white
fellows stopped at Ellerbe and
offered to sell a practically new
Ford to Jap Suggs for $500
Suggs had previously learned
that a Ford had been stolen from
Rawls Motor Co., at Raleigh, on
May End, and he knew the en-.
CINE number. He refused to buy
the car, but examining it he
found the engine numbers cor
responded. The two strangers
came on to Rockingham, and
shortly afterwards Suggs with
Steve Fesperman followed them.
They overlook them on the
RockinghamC heraw road, and
induced them to return to Rock
ingham under promise to buy
the car. When they got them
in town, Suggs called Chief Gov
ington and had them arrested.
The two were locked in jail, and
next morning, May 9th, officers
came from Raleigh and carried
them and the car back to Raj
eigh. Suggs was paid the $50
In Raleigh the strangers gave
their names as ]. O. Morans and
N. 7. Nance, and claim to be
chauffeurs from Richmond. The
car belonged to W. H. Norden, of
Raleigh. Both men were bound
to Wake county Superior Court.
Some folks are of the opinion
that these two men may have
been connected with the theft of
the w. A.. Green Ford here on
April 18th. :

HAD any one predicted ten
years ago that in such a short
time Chatham county would have
as good gravel roads as could be
found in the State, he would have
been laughed at. But such is
the case.
The highway running from the
Orange county line to the Lee
county line, through Pittsboro, is
as perfect a gravel road as can
be found anywhere. And a road
built by township and private
funds from Collision north
through Bonlee to Siler City is
the best stretch of gravel road
this writer has ever seen; this
latter road is through clay.
country, and yet is so perfectly.
graveled and bedded that a hard
wood floor surface could hardly
be smoother. This road runs
within two miles of Mt. Vernon
Springs, and is tapped by a two
mile spur of the same caliber.
a State highway is now being
built from Siler City to Pittsboro,
Of gravel, and will be completed
within a month; this will be a |
part of a main artery running
east and west, through Chatham,
thus splitting the county in four
directions. Old Chatham has
awakened, and the network of
real roads win make this fine old
county heard from.

At the end of a two-hour ride (for
Soiie-iouStr Iof OlHerS), through
picturesque Charles county, the party
broke up into various groups. to
find entertainment in swimming or
fishing.
Promptly at 80 it was announced
from the front porch of the Maryland
Hotel that The Evening Star Club
dinner is served" The bathing, salt
water breeze and lapse Of several
hours since breakfast had given ev-

the club members did to that dinner
was aplenty.
But it was getting a little late and
only a few more hours of this mode

loaded with ambition, but had not the

into the Wicomico and more toadfish
were brought in as trophies. The
start for home was made about dusk.
