lived in his latter years, quietly
peacefully. In the distance tie
wrinkled Pungo hurled restless
waves upon the sandy beach, re-
minders of by-gone day; not far
distant trim sloops rode at anchor,
vagrant waves tapping at their
prows. The breezes, salt laden,
bore the moist breath of the dis
consulate and misty Atlantic to
watt him into the beyond. Sur
rounded by gentle reminders of
years spent in toiling on the sea,
ships hidden by the chaotic
shadows of night, ships that he
loved to watch loom over the hori-

Here he spent the earlier days of
his life, dreamed his youthful
dreams, and shaped the career des-

and he laid down to sleep. AS he
played along the shore of historic
Bath Creek, exploring the haunts
of the pirate Black Beard, grace

the service of the sea. When quite
young he left his native haunt and
sailed away on sturdy three

made the voltage safely and when
the Southern Cross had vanished
in the heavens, when the rugged
coast line of South America faded
from sight he determined to for
sake the sea for the more peaceful
sounds and rivers of Eastern
North Carolina.
He lived through many stirring
times in history. He was just a
lad when that vast horde of pio-
neers set out for the west, some
leaving their bodies to bleach in
scorching sun, others fording the
rushing Platte to reap fortune and
renown in the golden west. He was

Louis King Paul is dead. He sue
cumbed to a heart attack at 100
o'clock Monday morning. The pass
ing of Capt. Paul wrote "finis" to
3 the eventful career of Belhaven's
oldest and most unique citizen. He
was familiar figure about town;
his old cap pulled down over
raven locks that refused to yield
to the ravages of time, his baggy
suit, and worn overcoat pulled
tightly about a withered frame to
ward off the cold, his shuffling
gait and the rat-tat-tat of his
sturdy cane, as he wended his way
about the streets of the city, will
not be forgotten soon. There is
no figure in Belhaven any better
known than was Capt. Paul. To the
time of his death he enjoyed the
lone distinction of being the city's
Oldest citizen. He possessed many
characteristics that made him uni
que and placed him in a class all
to himself. He enjoyed good health
to the time of his death, and on
Sunday idled about the down town
section as was his daily custom.
Death came to him all unaware,
like a hunter who stumbles upon
lost trail, and hied him away in
to the mysteries of an unknown
and UNEMPLOYED realm while most
of the city slept. He spent his lat
ter years near the blue waters of
the Pungo he loved so we'll. Dur

he manned many fine craft and

as would create the envy of the
old masters who sailed the
