GRAHAM, N, C.,'OCT. 29, 1914,
To THE CITIZENS OF ALAMANCE COUNTY : *
.. The letter below, correcting the untrue statements
made by a correspondent of the State Dispatch, was placed
in the hands of Mr. J. Zeb. Waller, editor of that paper,
by me Tuesday morning, with request to publish. He had
publish a correction, and it was our understand
ing that it would be published in the issue of Tuesday, if
received Tuesday before noon. Mr. Waller was in Gra
ham and I placed it in his hands. When the Dispatch
for Tuesday came out it did not appear, but instead a note
that my letter came too late for publication.
This is the treatment received from the Dispatch when
a simple matter of righting a wrong and correcting an un
true and false statement concerning a political opponent
is at issue; but the same paper held its Tuesday issue of
last week over till Thursday evening to get political mat
ter in favof of Republican candidates and adverse to the
Democrats.
In my letter I say by the record that the fund for the
benefit of the minor was increased at the rate of $2.05 a
year before the fund came into my hands. The same
record shows that under my administration the fund in
ured to the advantage of the minor at the rate of a little
over $3.68 a year, and this is no reflection on my pre
decessor.
The figures in my letter were compiled by Messrs. E.
S. Parker, Jr., and J. Dolph Long, two as reputable law
yers as are in the State of North Carolina, from the yearly
reports of record in the Clerk's office, and that without
any suggestion or explanation of them on my part. Any
one who will take a few minutes of time can verify the
figures and they will be fund to be absolutely correct.
Mr. Waller, the editor, was in Graham Tuesday morn
ing and I invited him to come into the Clerk's office and
see the accounts for himself. He declined to come. If
he had desired to be absolutely fair, it seems to me that
he would have been glad to look at the accounts for him
self. Then he could have seen how grossly unjust and
untru# were the statements of his anonymous corres
pondent.

THE STATE DISPATCH.
ORAHAM, N. C.,
October 27th, 1914.

Editor Btate Dispatch,
> Burlington, N. C.
Dear Sit
In the issue of your paper
dated October 20th, 1914, you pub
published a communication dated
at Ossipee and signed "One who
knows the facts" which did not
state facts and which reflect
ed on me. The truth concerning
the matters referred to in that
communication are as follows:
There was paid into the Clerk's of
fice to O. D. Vincent, Clerk of the
Superior Court, on April 8, 1897,
$222.41 for a minor named Mis*
Elvira Harris. Mr. Vincent a*
Clerk held and administered this
*um till May 22, 1899,, (he went out
of office the first Monday in De
cember, 1(99, but pursuant to cus
tom made no settlement of the Be*
celver'* affair* in hi* handa till the
following May Court). Mr. Vincent
lent thia fund out and collected in
tereit on it, $2t.M. He paid fee*
; and allowancee as follower To
W. P. Bynum, Jr., Solicitor, $9.00;
taxes, $1.26; to A. L. Brooks, So
licitor, $3.50; to O. D. Vin
cent, C. S. C., $7.50, leaving in hie
1 hands $220.51, which he delivered
to me as Clerk May 22, 1999.
In these two years Mr. Vincent
paid nothing to any person for the
benefit of the minor and added to
the fund which he" 1 had received
the sum of |4.19, or increaeed the
the fund at the rate of $2.05 a year, |
and Mr. Vincent, like the honest
man that he was, handled the fund,
exactly aa provided by law and j
took nothing except what belonged
to him and paid nothing to others
except under the order* of the
Court. On May 22, 1899, there came
to me an Clerk 1226.51, which I
kept loaned out until November 2,
101$, when I settled with the
minor, who had reached the age
of 21, and collected intercut there
on to the amount of $177.18. Thin
sum, both principal and interest, I
disposed of a* follows: Paid So
licitor'* allowance, ordered by the
Court, for 13 year*, *33.25; paid
taxe*, State, County and Munici
pal, for 13 year*, 140,12; paid ex-!
penxes by way of postage and re
cording fee* for 13 year*, $17.08;
paid J. D. Kernodle, Clerk Superi
or Court, commission* allowed by
Court for 11 year*, $11.50; paid to
Mother and Step-Pather for bene
fit of Minor $51.50. On November
2nd, paid Minor the balance,
amounting to $217.51. If you will
add up the amount* received by
me and the amount* paid out by
me you will *ee that they balance.
I want to say that an itemlied an
nual statement ha* been made of
this account to the May Term of
the Superior Court of each year,
and the account has been passed
upon by the Solicitor and approv
ed by the Judge, and the allow
ances and Solicitor'* lee* fixed by
the Judge. There haa been no sum
charged againat this account ex
cept those fixed by law, and in
the II year* it has been in my
hand* aa Clerk, I paid for the ben
efit of the minor $51.50, and then
on November 2nd, 1912, paid to the
minor and hold her receipt for
$217.54, so that there was paid to
the minor and for her benefit
$272.04 by me.
You may criticise the expense of
handling this estate, but the estate
was small and the expense is ex
actly as fixed by law. The corres
pondent said that only about $lO
interest had be'en paid and that by
Mr. Vincent. The facts show 5&4.50
interest paid and that Jt>y me. Your
correspondent said the minor be
came of age in September, 1912,
and that the money was held by
me until the fill of 191 S. If the
minor became of age in September,
1912, the settlement was made in
no more than 60 days after she
reached her majority, as she re
ceipted for the full amount Novem
ber 2nd, 1912. 1 know t she was
represented by Mr. Vernon, be
cause her receipt was witnessed by
Mr. Vernon, but I know that it is
absolutely false to state that it was
necessary to procure a" lawyer to
ge{ this money. People who have
business in the Clerk's office fre
quently employ lawyers to go over
the matters and make their settle
ments, but it has never been neces
sary to employ a lawyer to get
money from the Clerk's office when
there was money there due one.
The above facts are shown by
the records, and this estate was
handled by Q. D. Vincent, a Re
publican Clerk, and me, and both
of us handled it in the same way,
and both of us handled it as by
law provided, and every item con
cerning the handling of this estnte
is and has always been a matter
of public record, and you or your
correspondent could have seen the
figures if you hid cared to do so
before you made unfounded state
ments concerning the matter.
I" have no quawel with' anyone
who votes against roe, and I have
no qbarrcl with anyone who works
against my election on political
grounds, but it is not fair, and it
is not Just to attempt to influence
votes against me by publishing
charges concerning the manage
ment of the affairs of my office
W A* C ' l are not true anl * wh ich the
records show are not true, and I
ask you to publish this injustice to
me, and in fairness to the voters
wjio read your paper.
Very respectfully,
J. D, KKRNODLK.
CHAS. D. JOHNSTON S LETTER
TO THE STATE DISPATCH.
OKAIIAM, N, C.,
September, 27, 19H.
Editor State Dispatch,
Burlington, N. C.,
Dear Sir
You have published in two
issues of your paper a statement
which, while it does not say that
II received the sum of 1987.28
above the salary and clerk hire
fixed for me by law, insinuates it.
Now, a short examination of the
public records In my office and in
the office of the Teasurer of Ala
mance county would have shown
that I have not received one cent
in excess of the salary and clerk
hire provided by law. The items
which you added together to make
up the sum of $987.28, were vouch
ers issued to- me as Register of
of Deeds by the County Commis
sioners, which I would have re
ceived before thp salary law went
into effect. When the salary law
went into effect i was required
to collect these sums Just us I
collect from individuals for reg
istering a deed, ami all these sums
and all money I collect In ony way
from any person I turn over to
the County Treasurer, and then 1
get simply the amount provided by
law that I shall get in the way
of salary and for clerk hire, As
above stated, these facts are shown
by the public reco>ds, and while
it is true that the records do show
that these vouchers were issued to
me, still tho same records further
show that they were turned over
to the County Treasurer by me,
and it was not Just to me to have
published anything that insinuat
ed otherwise without investigating
and ascertaining the facts.
1 cannot believe- that U was nec
essary for me to have made this
explanation to the people of Ala
mance county, who have known me
for years past„ but for fear aorae
person would be misled by my not
correcting the impression you tried
to create, I am writing you thia
letter and asking you to publiah
it in Justice to me and in order to
be fair with the votera who reaa
your paper. ■ r "«-

IE INVASION OF ENGLAND
Is Believed To Be The Plan Of Oar
man Kalaar—Control Of French
Coast Necessary
For the drat time since the European
war began the warships of Oreat Brl
aln and France are playing an Import
ant part in the great struggle. Here
tofore their principal duty has been
to patrol the seas, protecting their
merchantmen and guarding their
home coasts. When the great conflict
In France was shifted from the fron
tier to the west coast the cruisers and
monitors of the Allies' fleets were
brought Into action and assisted very
largely In holding the Germans in
check.
With the control of the entire coun
try of Belgium all the way to the coast
all that the Germans need now to be
gin their campaign against England Is
the command of the French coast. In
this the allies are stubbornly resisting
the Germans. In recent reports from
London it is said the British nary
played an Important part and co-oper
ated with the land forces in repulsing
the German armies. It was during
this fighting that the entire Belgian
army, which has been lost sight of for
nearly a week, was found in France
fighting side by side with the allies.
There Is a belief in the minds of
military experts that an attempt on
the part of the Germans to attack
England would mean a speedy culmi
nation of hostilities. Though no defi
nite information has been given out
It is generally believed that England
Is thoroughly prepared for an aerial
attack by Oerman Zeppelins. Search
lights sweep the sky Incessantly dur
ing the nights and British airmen
stand ready day and night to launch
their craft to do battle in mid-air with
the invaders.
In view of the tact that the British
•oast Is heavily mined and the great
warships of Great Britain are con
stantly patrollng the North sea and
especially the coast of the British
Isles It would require a superhuman
effort on the part of the kaiser and his
staff to land Oerman soldiers on Brit
ish soil. Should the German navy
endeavor to escort the transports car
rying the invading army to England it
would precipitate a naval battle be
tween the warships of the nations.
This the Germans have so far been
careful to avoid.
In the eastern theater of war the
fighting has been heavy at all times.
A definite Idea of the results of this
conflict now being waged by the Aus
tro Gorman armies against the Rus
sians In East Prussia, Guilds, and
Russian Poland Is Impossible because
of the conflicting reports that are re
ceived dally from I'etrograd, Vienna
and Berlin. On the same day dis
patches will be received from Petto
grad telling of the utter rout of the
Gorman* la Russian- Poland, the plight
of the Austrian acmles In Oallcla and
the success of the Russlsn armies in
East Prussia, while dispatches from
Berlin and Vienna will claim great
victories against the Russians In the
same battles. However, there does
| not seem to be sny Important success
es on the part of either of the armies.
