PLEURISY DEVELOPS IN
TWIDDY'S LATE VICTIM
Boy Shot Thru Liver, Diaphragm and
Lung Is Far From Out
of Danger

Davis Overton. Jr.. the 15-ycar-
negro boy who was hunted down and
shot by a posse headed by policeman
George Twiddy of this city on Sunday
morning. April ,, has developed pleur-
iSy and is in a dangerous condition at
the PaSQuotank Municipal Hospital. In
meantime there will be no prosecution
of Twiddy and his party pending the
recovery or death of the boy.
1t will be remembered that the boy
was shot in the back, bullet entering
the small of his back just above the
right kidney, ploughing its way obliQue-
ly thru his diaphragm, liver and right
lung. and lodging in his chest. After
being thus wounded the boy was left
in the woods and was found the fol-
lowing Thursday, nearly exhausted from
hunger and loss of blood and in high
ly deliriOuS condition. Under the treat
ment of DR.. John Saliba, the boy has
shown prospects of a rapid and COM
plcte recovery, but complication may
yet develop. DR.. Saliba is still hope
full of his patients recovery, but de-
clares that he is by no means out Of
danger.

SAYS THE GREY HEADS
HAVE MADE THIS TOWN
If It's a Bad Town They Have No
One But Themselves To
Blame

If Elizabeth City isn't the town it
ought to be, no one is responsible ex-
cept the grey heads of the city, ac
cOrding to DR.. J. e. Thayer, pastor of
Blackwell Memorial Baptist Church
DR.. Thayer said as much in sermon
delivered in the pulpit of the First
Baptist Church of this city Sunday
night.
Pausing in the midst of a passionate
Sermbn. lowering his voice and leaning
forward toward the congregation, the
preacher declared: "YOu old men of
this town have been deceiving the
young people; you have thru all these
years taught them that material pros
perity is the most desirable thing in
life; and now you are reaping what you
have sown. God have mercy on your
sOuls!"
The preacher said he was not mis-
taken about the money grabbing char
acter of our leading citizens; that in the
short time he had been here he had
looked into their innermost lives and
that if he were so inclined he could
lash them mercilessly.

MAY PEAS EXPECTED
TO BRING FAIR PRICE
First Refrigerator Car From PaSquo-
tank Goes on New York Mar
ket To-Day

Shipment of May peas from Pasquo-
tank began in earnest this week, X.
c. Abbott loading a refrigerator car a
day at his station on South PoindeXter
st. The first of these refrigerator
cars will go on sale on the New York
market this morning and returns are
anxiously awaited by local growers.
Express shipments of peas by Spence
Hollowell Co. and other large shippers
this week have brought $500 bas-
ket. which is considered a good price.
4 few peas have brought $4OO bas-
ket.
Peas from this section are expected
to find a good market. The South Car
olina crop is well out of the way and
so is Mississippi. Some Mississippi
meas we're sold this week, but were not
up to North Carolina stock and brought
a low price of $125 a basket, which
discouraged further shipments from
that section.
An unusual condition prevails in the
pea crop of this section this year. Peas
were planted late after late wet Win
ter. Then they began to mature early
in long. dry, hot spell which was not
broken by rain until last week. Then
this week the weather turned cool
again. arresting the growth of certain
varieties. Frost several nights in sue
cession did damage in many places.
There are predictions that the crop will
be short. Big shipments are expected
for the next two weeks.

MORE ABOUT PROPOSED
PAVING OF RUM ROAD
MIR. Cohoon Thinks This Newspaper
Wasn't Exactly Fair to
Him

W. L. Cohoon. General Counsel of
the State Highway Commission and pi-
onecr in good road work in this sec
ton takes exception to statement
made in this newspaper last week to
the effect that he, while formerly favor
ing the Main st. route for the inter-
county highway. is now Justify in favor
of the county paving Rum Road to pac-
ify W. II. Jennctte and shut off further
hearings before the State Highway
Commission. The language Of which
Mr.. Cohoon complains was not intended
to convey the impression that Mr.. Co.
hoon had any personal objections to
further hearings before the State High
way Commission and this newspaper
regrets its unfortunate phraseology.
1t is also fair to state that Mr.. Co.
hoon is not alone in advocating the
having of Rum Road by the County.
This newspaper has cOnditionaliy ap-
nroycd the same idea and five members
of the PasQuotank Highway Commits
sion are unoficially committed to such
a course. There arc just as many ar
guments in favor of paving Rum Road
as there are arguments in favor OF a
LOT of other ?oadS under consideration.
The expenditure of $4,000 or S"O'00o
in paving Rum Road from the ciii linn
its TO Carl Commanders corner might
be considered a particularly desirable
investment if the City could be per-
Suaded at the same time to open up
Lawrence st. in a straight line with
Ebringhaus st. This would make the
Norfolk Southern r. r. spur on Law
rpnce st. particularly desirable for
freight station and take thousands OF
tons of heavy traffic off the principal
streets of the city. The utilization OF
tbc Lawrence Street yards of the Nor
folk Southern for potato and fertilizer
shipments alone would save farmers a
long haul across town and take an I'M
mense amount of traffic off Road, Main
and Burgess streets in those seasons
when farmers are hauling fertilizers to
their farms and potatoes to the rail-
road.
But to get the city to pave Ehrlng-
haus st. and straightcn out Lawrence
st. is another problem. The city does
MT seem to be able to do anything and
now that it has made a contract with
the McCrary Engineering Co., OF At
lanta. in the matter of public utilities
there are some who fear that the town
will have nothing left to do anything
with when the McCrary crowd gets
thru with it.
The point that this newspaper has
always stressed, and which it would not
have the people lose sight of, is: that
this eternal nagging of the State High
way Commission in regard to routes
should stop. Roads can not be built
to suit everybody. The State should
not be eternally nagged and enjoined
in its construction projects by people
who can't get roads run Just to suit
their individual preference.

RADIO SETS FOR
ELIZABETH CITY
Elizabeth City Will Have the
New Craze In a Few
Days

Failure of Elizabeth City to get into
the radio craze is due solely to the in
ability of local electricians to supply
radio receiving sets, due to the fact
that the demand for radio sets every
where exceeds the supply. But the ra-
dio sets are coming, declares D., Ray
Kramer, the leading electrician here.
Mr.. Kramer has finally secured a ship
ment of three big $3.50 sets which he
expects to receive within the next few
days. One of these sets goes to the
Duff Piano Co., the other to the Eliz-
abeth City Chamber of Commerce and
the third will go to the anxious GUS
toner who is first to plank down the
long green.
The sets which Mr.. Kramer will re-
ceive are of the most approved type
and capable of receiving from points
as far away as Chicago.
4 number of Elizabeth City people
have ordered radio receiving sets and
others are holding off only because Of
the vast improvements being made IN
radio apparatus almost daily. Only
within the past few days new discoy-
cry has made it possible to do away
with the expensive battery equipment
of a radio set and connect ones radio
outfit with an ordinary electric light
socket 1t is even predicted that pic
lures will also be sent by radio at an
early date and that one may sit in his
own home and see mSying picture
drama broadcasted from New York or
Los Angeles and hear the full symphony
orchestra accompaniment with the pic
ture.
There is only one radio receiving set
in operation in Elizabeth City at the
present time Henry SharbCr has a set
in his home on Front ST., which he has
been using with more or less success
for several weeks.

WAS A PIONEER IN N. C.
WATER TRANSPORTATION
Chas. w. HusSey Was on Water All
His Life But Never Learned
To Swim

Capt. ChaS. W. HuSSey. Oae of the
pioneer steamboat men of Northeastern
North Carolina. who had gone by wat
er for nearly 80 years and never
learned to swim in all that time. was
drowned in the James River in Virginia
last Friday morning. Capt. HuSSey
was chief engineer on the steamer
Brewster of the Buxton line, which was
sunk in a collision with the steamer
Lake Sterling of the New York Rich
mond Line near jamestown Island in
the early morning of Friday, April 21.
The Brewster, cut almost in two, sank
in 40 feet of water.
Capt. HuSsey was a resident of Eliz-
abeth City for many years. prior to
1917 when he removed to Norfolk He
came to this section nearly 40 yearS
ago with two brothers, Frank and
George HuSSey He was for several
years an engineer on the Gurley Line.
operating freight steamers from Nor
folk to points on the Roanoke River.
He was at another time engineer on
the steamer Neuse between Elizabeth
City and New Bern. About 1893 the
Hussev brothers established the first
steamboat line between Elizabeth City
and Fairfield. establishing business and
commercial relations between Elizabeth
City and Hyde county that exist to this
day.
Can't. Hussey is survived by his wife,
who was Miss Elizabeth Taylor of New
Bern. and By two children, Fay Lee
and Minnie Bell HuSSey. The old HuS-
sey home on Cherry St., just off from
West Main st. (nOw the home of ]. f..
NIoran) is still one of the show places
of Elizabeth City. The Husseys now
live at 91j Main ST., Berkley, and it
is their idea to continue their residence
there.
Fav Hussey was with his father at
the time of the accident and attempted
TO reach him with a life preServer; but
before he could accomplish his purpose
the Inflated ship gave a sudden lurch
and Capt. Hussey, handicapped by a
heavy oyercoat, was thrown into the
water and lost in the night.
Another Elizabeth City man, Capt. j.
W. Barrett, master of the Brewster,
escaped. together with the other officers
and crew. Capt. Hussey alone was lost.
The Brewster was the fifth vessel of
the Buxton line to have beer lost with
in a few days. four of the company 5
steamers having burned to the waters
edge in the Berkley fire a week before.
