IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our dear
Son and Brother, Larry Teets, who
was called away two years ago,
August 2.
Do not ask us if we miss him,
There is such a vacant place.
Often we think we hear his foot
steps
And see his smiling face.
Days of sadness still come over us,
Tears in silence often flow.
Memory keeps him ever near us,
Though he left two years ago.
Angels whisper that our darling
Is in the land of love so fair,
That he is gently waiting
Close beside the golden stair.
So sadly missed by the family.

Another reason why you should pat ronize your Navy Exchange activi ties.
 Contrary to the runors and scuttle butt have have been floating around Adak the Special Servi ices Officer will affirm tho fact that the only money received by the Command for deposit in the recreation fund is the money rec- eived monthly from the Navy Ships Store office as the Commands share of Navy Exchange and the Enlisted men's Club profits. A token charge for cer- tain recreati onal activities as the Bowling Alley also contributes to the fund. Of the 25t per line paid for line of bowling 200 goes to the pin- sitter and 50 goes to the Special Ser vices. You can see by this example that without the support of the Navy Exchange it would be impossible to offer the many varied recrea tional facilities available wi thout an in- crease in price.

THE 1899 HURRICANE IS
COMMONLY RECALLED AS
THE AUGUST STORM"

What was in its day known as
I the most disastrous storm along
our coast in the memory of men
then living, and which is still called
aThe August Storm" wrought great
havoc to sailing vessels, and pro-
|perty along the waterfront on the
IN. C. Coast. It occurred 62 years
ago, and began blowing on August
|16, 1899. The story which follows
has been furnished by one of our
readers from Cape Hatteras:
The following account of the'99'
storm will refresh memories of a
lot of sold timers on the Outer
Banks, and also serve as a remind
|er of the possible severity from a
future storm.
The wind began blowing gale
from the east the morning of the
10th, varying in velocity from So to
80 miles an hour, and gradually
shifting to northeast by 6 PM,
with nearly stationary pressure.
During the early morning of the
18th the wind increased to a hurri-
cane and at 4 am. was blowing at
the rate of 20 m.p.h-; 10 am. it
had increased to "a miles; and at /
pm. it was blowing SO miles an
hour with occasional extreme veloc-
ity of 120 to lao m.p.h. The record
of wind after about pm. was lost,
but it is estimated that it blew with
even greater force from about 3
pm. to z pm, and it is believed
that between these hours the wind
reached regular velocity Of at
least 100 miles an hour. The ba-
rometer began to fall rapidly about
g am. of the 18th, and 8 pm. of
that date it had reached the unpre-
cedented low reading of 1882 in
ches, where it remained about an
hour, when it began to rise rapidly,
and by midnight it had risen nearly
one-half inch. From 7:3O to 500
pm. of the 18th there was a lull in
the gale when it veered to south
east and began to blow at an esti-
mated velocity of so to 20 miles,
which continued well into the morn
ing of the 18th.
The hurricane was the most Sc
we're in the history Of Hatteras. The
scene on the 18th was wild and ter
rifle. BY 8 am. the larger area of
the entire island was covered by
water from the sound, and by IL
am. much of the land was covered
to a depth of from 4 to 10 feet.
This tide swept over the area at a
fearful rate carrying everything
movable before it. There was not
more than four houses on the island
in which the tide did not rise to a
depth of l to A feet, at least half
the people had to abandon their
homes and seek safety with those
who were fortunate enough to live
on higher grounds. The frightened
people were crowed 40 to so in a
house. All this day the gale, the
tide, and the sea continued with UNI
abated fury. During the lull in the
evening the tide ran off with great
swiftness, causing a fall in the
water of several feet in less than
half an hour. Domestic stock. was

SENATOR
SAM ERWIN
- SAYS

WASHINGTON - President SUI
karno's visit to the United States
to state the Belgrade Conference
position on the East-West crisis
has borne out what a lot of Con-
gressmen and Senator'S have said
for q long time. That is that we
cannot depend on the "a non-align-
ed nations to stand with the United
States in any conflict with Russia.
Since World War II a benevolent,
If unwise, United States policy has
disbursed some Sc billion in foreign
aid assistance to bolster the armies
and economies of the "a neutralist
naticnss Our government entertain
ed the hope that in this latest U. s.
Soviet dispute over Berlin and nu-
clear testing that these govern
ments would be morally bound to
side with the United States. Yet
after summit meeting of these
nations in Belgrade not one of them
had the slightest condemnation Of
Russia for precipitating the Berlin
Crisis or its resumption of nuclear
testing. The Belgrade nations have
assumed the attitude that ga man
must live. They have forgotten the
hard lessons of World War II which
taught many nations that appease-
ment leads to enslavement. Recent
iy / inserted in the Congressional
Record a statement by DIR. Fred
erick Brown Harris, Chaplain of the
Senate, on this subject. I quote a
portion of his remarks: Estate
ments satisfactory to all concerned
are the bane of this so-called toler-
ant day when neutralism and APP
peasement are becoming more and
more q moral fashion. There is dire
danger that one may become so toll
Grant Of everything that he will de-
fend nothing to the death with the
specious defense "a man must live.
The worth of q conviction not for
sale was instilled in countless lives
by the old fashioned golden test
e0lored Sunday school card. One
was . Bible figure of long ago
about whom childish lips sang lust
lily. This man refused to buy safety
in alien Babylon when he was told
ne could have it by bowling down to
pagan gods. This was the verse we
sang.
Dare to be Daniel,
Dare to stand alone,
Dare to have a purpose true,
And dare to make it known"
SCHOOL AID - The Senate has
approved a bill to extend for 2 adj
ditional years the expired provisi-
ions of federal assistance to inn
pacted school areas and the Nation
al Defense Education Act. The
House earlier passed a similar YER
sion of the bill. North Carolina re-
ceived $S,288,562 in grants-in-aid
under the expired Acts for the fis-
cal year ending June 80, 1859.

property loss to Hatteras alone was
between $4,000 and $4,000. The
Fishing industry had, for . time,
been swept out of existence, and
Iof the is fish-paclxing houses;
which were situated on the water
front, 10 with all their equipment
land contents were lost. A great
proportion Of the houses on the is
land were badly damaged and many
families were without homes. All
bridges were swept away and road
ways We're piled high with wreck
age. All telegraph and telephone
lines were down.
The following vessels were
known to be lost between Hatteras
and Big Kinnakeet:
Al large steamship foundered
about one mile off Hatteras beach
the night Of the 18th, and it is
thought all on board were drowned.
From the marks on some of the
wreckage which drifted ashore it is
supposed her name was the Agnes
and that she was German or Nor
wegian. She was loaded with cotton
and slaves, a portion of which car
go drifted on the beach. The Dia-
mond Shoals Light Ship which was
stationed off Hatteras Broke loose
from her moorings the morning Of
the 18th and was carried southwark
by the gale; when the wind shifted
to the southeast she was carried
ashore near Creeds Hill Life-Saving
Station, where she went aground on
high beach. The crew was saved by
the Creeds Hill Life-saving crew.
The three-masted schooner Florence
Randall went ashore one mile north
of Big Kinnakeet Life-saving Sta
ton the night of the 18th. The crew
was saved by the Kinnakeet Life
saving crew. The schooner was
total loss. The damage to the in
struments and property Of the
Weather Bureau Office was con-
siderable, the thermometer being
carried away before the storm at
tanned the maximum strength, and
the rain gage was swept away
the early morning of the 18th.
The people Of the locality had
ample warning of this storm, yet
such preparations as could be made
were Of little avail in storm Of
this character. All of the stores,
warehouses, and other buildings in
which property was stored for safe
keeping were located along the
water front, and in this case, they
were either flooded or swept away.
No lives were lost at Hatteras, al
though there were many narrow es-
capes. At Ocracoke and Ports
mouth, 16 and 20 miles south of the
Cape Hatteras station, the storm
was about as severe as at Halter
as; reliable details are, however,
lacking.
NOTE: After this storm, the town
of Manteo, which then consisted of
only about half dozen houses, got
its greatest growth. Numerous peo-
pie from Hatteras Island built
homes in Manteo, some of which
were never occupied or if so, only
for short time, when the owners
moved back to the Island. Most of
these new residents came from the
Chicammaconico section, and for
the greater part, they remained,
and many descendants of these
families now live on Roanoke Is
land. Children of the late Bannis-
ter Midget of Salvo, who moved
to Manteo, and Roanoke Island,
numbered nine in all. In all more
than 20 homes were built by the
former residents of the Chicama-
comic villages who at that time
wanted to get to higher ground.
