TWIDDY CASE
UP this WEEK
Most Brutal and Cowardly
Crime Ever Committed by
a Local Policeman

Perhaps the most serious
case on the docket OF the SUI
pcrior Court in session in Eliz-
abcth City this week is the
case OF the State VS.. George
Twiddy. Ralph Cuthrell. Lin
wood Cartwright, H. 5. Scy-
mour and Pete Sawyer. all
charged with assault with
deadly weapon with intent to
kill. The prosecuting witness
in the case is Davis Ovcrton. Il
l6-ycar-old moron negro.
In the early morning of Sunday.
April =. 19222. Twiddy. who is It
night policeman in Elizabeth City.
organized noSsc and went three
miles or more into PaSQuotank Coun-
" to look for the negro boy. Davis
OvcrtOn. who WAS wanted bv the
county authorities on IL charge of
vagrancy. Twiddy had no warrant
for the boy and Sheriff thas. Reid
has stated that Twiddy had no au-
thOrity To 20 in the county Tor the
boy. But Twiddy has thirst for
negro blood.
McsSrS. Seymour. Cartwright and
Culhrcll. who accompanied Twiddy
and helped him in the man.hunt are
Camden County men and knew abSo-
lutoly nothing about the negro they
were hunting for. They Just went
along to help Twiddy. ut Twiddy :
request.
The negro boy was found in IL
Shnntv on the Parker farm on Body
Road. several miles from town. 1t
WAS hardly daylight when Twiddy
flushed his prey. The boy. seeing
five armed white men pursuing him,
ran. As he ran hc was shot by one
of htc party. \ 80 calibrc steel bull
let penetrated the boys back just
below the twelfth rib. narrowly
missed kidney. Travelled Obliquely
upward thru his liver and right lang
and lodged behind n rib in his chest.
Twiddy aud his men left the boy to
die aud came back to town. saying
nothing about the shooting. -Four
days later the boy was found weak,
cmaciatcd and exhausted from loss
of blood i'm ditch far from the road.
lie was taken to the Pasquotank
Municipal Hospital and lowered be-
tween life and death for weeks. Ills
recovery under the surgical care OF
DIR. John Saliba was nothing short
of marvellous.
4 more cowardly, brutal or un-
called for crime was never committed
by Il police officer in the police his
tory of Elizabeth City. For weeks
Twiddy walked the streets without
having . warrant being served upon
him. Finally he and his alleged ac-
complices were hailed into court. Civ

Aldermen by whom rwiddy is en-
ployed as il policeman never did any

YOUNG Taylor, just rs years old,
is the Democratic nominee for the

ton is equivalent to election. Cur.

another result OF the modern spirit

no less apparent in the progressive

Not only would the canal mean re-

great cities on the lakes, such as Buff
falo, Chicago, Milwaukee and Cleveland,
but the growth of new great cities
loomed, it was pointed out.
Senator Kellogg Of Minnesota pointed
to the report Of the joint commission,
in which rapid development was pre-
dicted for Duluth, MINI, and the twin
cities of Ft. William and Port Arthur,

FAMOUS MORALITY PLAY
10 BE PRESENTED TONI

TO BE PEESENIED IONAUhAs
The Little Theater Society will present
"Everyman" tonight aud Saturday after
noon at the Masonic Temple as special
Lenten attraction.
Mr.. George Somnes, director Of the
society and the leading player IN Every
man." has the following to say concern
ing the play in q bulletin Of the Little
Theater:
''When Christopher Columbus dis
covered America, and just century be-
fore William Shakespeare produced his
masterpieces a morality play correspond
ing In many ways to our "Everyman"
was well known In the northern part Of
Europe Il was the Dutch play called
''Elckerlyk," q. e. everyman) written by
Peter Dorland, a monk Of Dfest But the
first impression OF %Eyeryman" is trace
able TO the year 1922, although there IS
good reason to believe that It was IN
manusc; Ipt as early as the reign Of Ed
ward ". An edition OF the play was
published early in the reign OF Henry
VIII. when It was popular and often pre-
sented. The next edition was a century
later in date.
There IS no evidence that the play was
presented during the last two centuries
until revived by William Poel for the
Elizabethan Stage So,-eUy Of England In
1901. This wa at old Charter House,
London, in the Quadrangle OF University
College, oxford. and at Rugby and other
schools. That 'Everyman' should be
first introduced 4 classic audience was
but natural. Yet while possessing the
refinement Of classic art, IL exhibits a
humaneness 80 comprehensive, so sym
pethetic and so moving as literally TO
leave its spell on every man. After its
first production Il was given on the
regular stage by Is - Grser and his con-
pany in the chief cities Of England,
Ireland and Scotland. In 1902 Il was
brought to New York By the late Charles
Fr0hman, where II was performed at the
old MedelssOhn Hall for a season Of
twenty weeks, and that same season
had prolonged engagements IN Chicago,
Boston. Washington and Philadelphia,
and became an integral part OF Mr..
Green's repertory for seven years
The accessories Of the stage are
simple. The characters, entering when
possible from tie audience, SPEAK often
IN q monotone, especially those rep
resenting the distractions, that being the
primitive style 0f delivery. Characters
representing actual human types are
allowed q little more license.
I'VE have here drama In its integrity,
and In passing It might be interesting
to observe with that fidelity this ancient
drama abides by the Aristotelian laws Of
tragedy. The action and the versification
are simple; the time Of action is that Of
the performance; the scene IS never
changed and the stage is never empty.
But the place of 'EVeryman' Is not with
the classic drama Of antiquity, nor yet
entirely with the religious drama Of the
medieval age, but with the drama OF
ell time. There is here for as, as for
the people Of earlier time, matter for
all that are human. Here may we all.
TRANQUILITY and sympathetically lending
