HISTORY OF SITES
OF COURTHOUSE
IN TYRRELL COUNTY
By BLANCHE w. COHOON

COLUMBIA. - Tyrrell County
was formed in 1929, as a precinct
of Albemarle County and named
for Sir John Tyrrell, one of the
Lords Proprietors of Carolina.
Courts were held in private
homes until 1749, when the first
Courthouse was built on Ken
bricks Creek (now Mackey's
Creek) on land decided by Stephen
Lee in June 174S. Hidden among
the records of Tyrrell County
Courthouse sites is the following:
''In 1758 William Denning leased
to Evan Jones site on condition
that no "strong drink" be sold
although this does not state that
this was leased or sold for a
Courthouse, it appears as if this
site must have been a second
Courthouse site. On July 81, 1898,
Benjamin Spruill sold to the coun-
ty site for the Courthouse, which
is now known as ]. Primers Go
lonial Farm" on the south shore
of the Albemarle Sound, a short
distance from the mouth of the
Scuppernong River. Quote: "On
March LIST, 1900, Thomas Hoskins
of the Town of Elizabeth and
Zebedee Hassell, planter, both of
Tyrrell County, and State of North
Carolina of the One part and the
chairman of the County Court of
Pleas and Quarter sessions of the
County of Tyrrell as his success
Sors in the office of the other
part. Witnesseth, that the said
Thomas Hoskins and Zebedee Has
sell for and in consideration of the
sum of Ten Pounds North Caro-
lima Currency (about $5O.) to us
in hand paid by the said chairman
of the County of Tyrrell at and
before the ensealing and delivery
thereof receipt whereof the one
acre of ground :"
A courthouse was built some
hundred yards northeast from the
present courthouse ssite, on the
north side of now known as Main
Street. The present courthouse
standing at the southeast corner
of intersection of Main and Broad
Streets was built in the year 1908,
in the town known now as Column
bia. The name was changed from
the clown of Elizabeth" to GO
lumbia" in 1910. Somewhere in
history the town was called
"Heart's Delight" and also "Shal-
lops Landing" The name Columbia
came from Christopher Columbus,
according to records in the Tyrrell
County Courthouse.
The population of the County of
Tyrrell has remained about the
same for the past hundred years
Census for 1850 showed popula-
ton as 5,133 for 190O-4,98O; for
1920 = 4,849; 1880 - 5,164; and
195OE5,04S. The population were
listed in 1920 as descendants of
English and Scotch settlers. The
1850 census of Columbia was l.
161.
The county has an area of 800
square miles, after the County of
Washington was formed from
Tyrrell in 1910. It's elevation
ranges from practically sea level
to about 10 feet above, with the
greater part from four to eight
feet above sea level. The first will
on record is dated 1850.
The plat of survey of the acre
of ground decided by Thomas Hos
kins and Zebedee Hassell bears
the date of July %, 1900, and was
surveyed by A. Phelps, surveyor.
Names bearing the (SEAL) are

Visiting Polo Club
Drops Game After
Mishup to Horses

The Winchester Polo Club
suffered a double setback yes
terday when two of its horses
were injured when the tail gate
of its van broke en- route to a
match with the Belvoir Polo
Club.
The gate snapped as the van
was climbing a mountain and
the two horses slid out of the
van onto the highway. One was
badly injured and the other
suffered minor cuts and bruises.
The Winchester team didn't
arrive at the Belvoir field until
the fifth chukker of a pickup
game. The Winchester players
took the field for the final two
chukkers but couldn't overcome
the Belvoir team, which scored
a 1875 overall victory.
Col. Jim Spurrier scored nine
goals for the winners, including
two 60-yard foul shots through
three defenders.

Pierce Back
As Stopper
For Headers

CHICAGO, Sept. 7 (AP).-
Billy Pierce returns today, Just
when the White Sox need a
stopper.
The 32-year-old lefthander
collapsed in pain on the mound
in Kansas City August is after
injuring his hip by trying to
throw too hard.
He's been sidelined since
then with strained muscles and
ligaments. but for the first
three weeks the league-leading
White Sox missed him less and
less.
Other starters such as Barry
Latham and Dick Donovan
came through and the club
caught fire, soaring to a 612-
game lead after whipping the
second-place Indians in Comis-
key Park Friday night.
Pitching Coach Ray Berries
had reported to Manager AL
Lopez before Friday nights
game: "Billy's throwing bullets
in the bullpen. He looks great"
Lopez was pleased but showed
little real enthusiasm. Already
all was going perfectly for the
Sox.
But Cleveland woke up Sat-
urday and yesterday and stag
gered the Chicagoans with two
straight one-run defeats to cut
their lead to AZ games.
All in all, the Sox suddenly
need a stopper. so Lopez has
nominated Pierce, twice a 20
game winner but this season
only 1918.

Guglielmi to Start
Ralph Guglielmi, sidelined

Francisco last month with a
badly bruised leg, is scheduled
to start at quarterback against

answer to Nixon's problem. but
outside of LeBaron, he's all the
team has left.
LeBaron is in California
where he'll spend the next three
days taking the State bar ex-
animation. He'll fly back in
time for Saturdays game. The
little guy, No. l in the league
last year and brilliant against
the Forty Miners and Rams,
had a horrible night against the
Bears, and knew it. Nixo
blamed it on the law studies.
Hes had his nose in a book
all summer, examining for this
exam" the coach said. He
told me everything was fuzzy
to him. and I can understand
why. I'll be glad when the
exam is over and he can con-
centrate on football again"
The Bears ran up a 21-0 lead
in the first period of Saturday
nights game and coasted
home, with Fullback Rick Ca
sares scoring three touchdowns
and Ed Brown passing for
three more.
From what happened"
Nixon said. we've got to as
sumo that either the Bears are

that we're in trouble. or that
we were too complacent. I'd
like to think we were too COM
placent. Obviously we weren't

Casares plunged for two
touchdowns and ran So yards
for his third score. Zeke Brat
