An action was brought in the
courts last year to determine
whether an extension of time coulu
be given for the construction of
this railroad and retain the effect
iveness of the subscriptions votea
- by l 'various townships. The con
tract between the railroad Company
and the townkhips voting subscrip
tions was that the road should be
built and in operation in a spec
ified time, or tfoe subscriptions
would become inoperative and not
binding. The Supreme Court held
that the railroad wuold have to
abide by its contract. Hence the
Toad has been rechartered and the
bill having passed both Houses of
the Legislature, the question of
bonds will be voted on agfiin, and
we have it upon good atjth'dWty
that if Alamance wishes to'share
In the* benefits of such a roaa
■a proposed that the townships will
again have to vote the bonds; that
the road will certainly be built. If
built through Alamance the county
will be immeasurably benefitted,
hence it behooves the people of Al
amance to interest themselves ana
work for It. It is a great oppor
tunity.

MEMORIAL SERVICE
Held in Memory of James Walter
Murray Sunday at 3 o'clock P. M.
I,«Ht Sunday afternoon, Feb'y
14th, at 3 o'clock, a vaat congre
gation filled the large auditorium
of the Lutheran church in Burling
ton to attend the service in memory
of Jainca Walter Murrey. When the
bour arrived the church was filled to
ila rapacity with fiiends from all
parts of the county and many from
without the county. It was a most
impressive and solemn service, dur
ing vhirh an awe-inspiring stillness
prevailed. -

request, granted us the privilege of

of bia life faithfully in well chosen and

The address of Pastor T. 8.
Brown was as follows:
This is u sorrowful occasion that
brings us together. It is for the
purpose of comforting one another
from the word of God, and mani
festing our sympathies in view of
the loss of our fellow member, ana
friend, and citizen, Mr. J. W. Mur-
NVe need not, nor would we if
we could, give in detail the appall
ing and harrowing circumstances
by which he was so unexpectedly
taken from us.
Through a multiplicity of duties
and labors, not sp much for himself
as for his town and community, his
health trß'e way under the atrain.
He had been undergoing medical
treatment for Its recovery, snd pre
paring to give up official connec
tion with the business he had so
firmly established, and serve the
community in a more general way,
when he was taken from us, ana
his body lies amid the surging,
restless waters and the shifting
sands of the Atlantic coast.
We knew him well enough to
know that when the atorm of disas
ter aeized upon that little craft—
when the Inevitable came, that he
would be sstlsfied to go down, if
only his wife and companions in
in peril cbuld be rescued.
Tnus In the senlth of his life and
usefulness he has been tsken from
I the church and town he loved so
well.
' The very ending of thst life
characterized his whole career, for
, it ws marked "by struggle and
storm snd opposition,
r He lived to see the completion of
many of his ardent endeavors: and.
' how pathetic, that instead of
I'oding his days amid the peaceful
auletude of home and friends, his
fe should go out amid the moan
ing and sighing of the sea, and the
noise of Its tempestuous waves,
while his own beloved wife was
struggling amid the cold, dark wa
ters.
I remember my first visit to Bur- 1
Ungton, before having been called
to become pastor of this church, i
I recsll mv Interview with Mr. 1
Murray sna others and the interest
he manulfested in my coming to be
his pastor. And ever since being
here he had been my friend. How-,
ever busy, man of affairs as he was,'
I never hsd to wait long to see
him. His advice and counsel were
slways good and encouraging.
And any important enterpriae un
dertaken by the church we could
ilwaya count on hta co-operation
and support.
Mr. Murray had hla faults, his be
getting sins, and I am not here to
gloaa them over, or palliate them.
But even the best of us hsve our
shortcomings. "If Thou, Lord,
shouldat mark iniquities, O Lord,
wllb shsll stand?" "Let him who
is without bin cast the first stone
it him."
But he hid faith. faith In men.
tnd otherwise he would not have
iccomplished whst he did. But
ibove all he hsd faith in Gad
faith in our Lord Jeaua Christ..
And that after all Is whit counts,!
for "our own rlghteoiane«s is h t
but as filthy ragi In God's sight.
"This Is the victory that overcon
*th the world, even our faith." And
in thla faith we truat he haa trl
fUi yJf In* nd poor blood; tfc*y
do not eoaplala bnt appstite lags, they
hsva bo ambition and do not progress.

umphed, and in thit great day
"when the sea shall give up its
dead," that his' body shall come
' forth renewed and transformed to
be re-united with his soul in an in
dissoluble and ' glorious union, nb
more to battle with the storms and
turmoils of life's tempestuous sea,
but to fulfill some eternal purpose
in the future kingdom of God,
Why then should we weep?
"Nothing is here for tears, noth
ing to wsll
Or knock the breast; no weakness,
no contempt, %
Dispraise or blame, nothing but
well and fair.
And what may quiet us in a death
so noble."
You remember after the miracu
lous feeding of the multitudes,
Christ conatrained Hia disciples to
cross over the ses of Galilee while
He, Himaelf, went up into' a moun
tain to pray.
The little craft was tossed and
rocked by the waves which wildly
swept against It. The disclMes
were filled with dread, and their
consternation waa heightened when
thev saw Jesus coming to them
walking on the water, but they
thought Him some apparition or.
spirit of evil. But He said "Be of
good cheer.it Is I, be not afraid.''
And like the disciples the Lord's
people must often pass through a
sea of trouble. Misfortune, be
. reavement, and trouble like a wild
storm swoops down upon us. God
often suffers these troubles for our
own good, to lead us to repentance,
bring us closer to Him, and purify
our charactera.
He Himself, comes in and through
to succor and help us, but like the
disciples we do not always recog
nize Him, and see in these troubles
some apecter of evil or omen ot
disaster.
Hence He cries out to-day to this
bereaved and stricken family, and
■ scores of friends as He did to his
t disciples of old, "be of good cheer,
r it is I, be not afraid." And this
r is what He says to every sorrowing
- and troubled soul..
t If bereavement or misfortune has
i touched you, or awakened yo ir
- fears, or taken happiness from your
home or hope from your heart,
f amid the darkness snd dashing* of
- calamity, there is a vo'ce thit
i says, "It is I, be not afraid." "It

i The.address of Mr. B. S. Parker,
• Jr., was as follows:
■ My Friends
I It's always hard for one to talk
| when they feel deeply, and it's
, hard for me to-day to speak to you
! of my dead friend, and yet because
what I say and the saying of it
la to be tribute to one whom
1 know deserves tributes, I could
not decline to speak.
| It was my privilege to know
Murray well, and a more quietly
forceful personality I never came
In contact with. He talked but lit
, tie, but when he did speak It was
worth while to listed. I was in
Burlington thst sfternoon when the
meeeage came announcing hia pass
ing, and there was never h»re or
elsewhere a more spontaneous
tribute paid a man by the crowds
that gathered on the street eager
to hear frdm him, and yet dreading
to hear the news confirmed, snd
the striking thing of it all was thst
ot all that crowd who knew him'
and his work, there was not one j
who spoke of whst he had done 1
for himaelf, but all with on" scco-d
tslked of whst he had done for
others, of what he had accomplish-,
ed In and for the community in
which he lived.
Some one haa aald that the full
duty of a man to his fellows Is to
develop to the fullest extent, snd
use to the utmost those gifts witv
which he is endowed, and to devel
op snd use those gifts for the best
interests of his fellow-man. If
this be the test, snd certainly it
Is s high standard to )udge one
by, then Indeed, did Murray meas
ure up to it. While talented in
many wara, still his most striking
gift was his capacity for otganlxi
tlon, and a gift that he had to
influence others in business mit-t
ters. Before I knew him at all
well he had shown much evidenc
of these gifts, and you hive but
to look around In your communitv
and in our county and point to
those thlnts which have tended to
the upbuilding of the communitv.
, and in almost every instance vou i
find evidence of his work, and It
Is but giving htm hla Just meed of
praise, to sey that msnv of the
biggeat things that have been done
were due in large measure to his
individual efforts. .
Aa I have said before, Murray
was a man who talked little con
cerning his plans fqr the future.
| and when he spoke at s matter
you generally found that he had
devoted much thought and time to
> it, and that the wearying details
> had been threshed out and that all
> the rest of us bad to do was to ca'r
' ry out his plans and the matter
i was a thing accomplished. Be-
I cause of the tact that I was pres
, ent at a business conversation
i with another person, I know that
the next thing he planned (or this
city and this county was a hospi
tal, and had he been spared, be
cause of what he had done in the
past, ano'because of my knowledge
of the. man I know that a hos
' pital would have been built, and
. I trust that even with him gone
' that the Influence ot his example
may enable us to build this hospi
tal. With his genius for organiza
tion and for handling business af
fairs ho would have made it easier,
but because I know he had this
[ in mind, and because I hope that
, somewhere he knows of what is be
' ing done here, I trust this hospital
is effected, and it would be but
i seemly to call it "The James Mur
, ray Hospital."
. You have Just heard that in his
. church counsel he gave freely of
. this gift for business matters of his
.' and that his advice was sought and
|, Valued.
I As to what dreams for the fu
,' ture there were in his busy brain
II know not, but I do know that,
.' Judging from the past, had he been
> spared that he would have done
much more for his community and
I "for his fellow-man.
I i I do not say aught of his family
. or of their great grief. That is
too sacred a realm for any but
', the Minister of the Living God to
enter.
Because I cannot do so I do not
, speak to you of my personal feel
; ings, other than to say that I miss
, him. You have missed him, ana
I by you I mean you of his church,
vou, his fellow-citizens here fn Bur
lington, you, of Alamance county..
I We have missed him since his
death—we miss him here to-day
when we come to pay this tribute to
' his memory; in future we will miss
him for the work he did, not-for
' himself, but for others. If the
good we do others and for others
is a fair test, then when we "Cross
the. Bar" may our record be like
his, for Judged by this test his life
I was indeed a success.
[ •7; . 1
• The address of Mr. C. Brown Cox
* was as follows:
•We commemorate to-day not so:
much a death as a life. While
1 we mourn the passing of our fore
most citizen, we stand in the pres
ence and the power of a great life.
When this generation shall have
Y" passed and another shall have as
sumed the affairs relinquished by
1 this, the impress of the life which
we commemorate today will remain
and our children's children will
speak the name of James Walter
" Murray.
It is difficult to bring my con
sciousness to acquiesce in the fact
• : that James W. Murray is dead,
I though I know beyond a doubt
* that his body now rests in peace
at the bottom of the sound whose
t waters enfolded him In death. Day
after day, in the mysterious laby
rinths of sub-consciousness, there
» lingers the expectation of meeting
him face to face. And I ata grate
ful for this—supremely grateful
- that throughout the years I shall
think of him as living—not dead.
Almost it would seem that a be
nevolent Providence has taken him
in the prime of vigorous life that
we may cherish his memory as a
vibrant, virile power in the affairs
which make for the uplift of his
City and his State
> Measured in years the death of
Jas. W. Murray was tintlmely
Measuted in achievement, he had
already lived his "three score and
j ten." And his tragic passing seems
i * fitting close to nis strenuous
i life, j Not a geniua nor a gi
i ant, given by birth neither position
nor power, he uarahalled his re
, sources and aahieved for himself a
worthy. place In the esteem ano
confidence of his fellowmen. In
■l-lrca by lofty purpose, sustained
by indomitable will, calmly superior
to criticisms or opposition, he was
the architect and builder of hla
own life—a life whoee magnitude
will enhance as the passing years
give it perspective.
This vast concourse of people,
this wealth of floral tokens attest
the great esteem in which the
memory of Jas. W. Murray la held i
We should not forget, however, r
that he achieved success, not by i
the aid of hia fellow-men, but 1
largely in spite of them. His as- I
■cent In life was not accompliahed
j by uason of helpfulness and praise i
I He won his way in the face of busy I
criticism and studied opposition, 1
and without his lust need of praise. *
i Knocks composed the rungs of the I
ladder by which he climbed. It la
I beautiful, nevertheless, and very 1
comforting, that there la a princi- 
pie in human nature by which It '
rights itself, though it be tardy In'
action. And I for one rejoice In «
the midst of my sorrow to-day that 
Jas. W. Murray, haa come to hisl 
rightful place in the hearts of hla '
fellow citizens, even though this •
must be accomplished by a tragic i
and untimely death.
TThe material achievements of
Mr. Murray'a life ape known. If |
If the records of them could be 
erases from the annala of our com- |
' munitv, the blank pages woula 
proclaim hia accompliahmenta more
elo'juestly than the written pages
would proclaim our own. But that i
which waa greatest asd best In him I
cannot be e xpreaaed In t-rms of
material achievement. In tba pur
suit of busineaa success men often i
i forget the riglta of their fellow- i
men and arrive at greatneas by 
building upon the wrecked fortunes
of other men. There la no man 1
living to-day who can stand up and t
aay that Jas. W. Murray ever I
t«ver wrongfully deprived him of a
single cent, or oppressed whan he
had him in his power. Be waa a i
true exemplar of that unusual bus!- i
ness consciousness which seeks the i
enhancement of aelf only by lifting I
others. Had he been selfish and
unscrupulous, with -the vast oppor
tunities at his hand, he could have
built for himself and hia family a
magnificent estate. But when a full
accounting 1s mads it will be re
vealed that hia private estate has
suffered while he has been devel
oping the wealth of the community.
For this the contmunltjr will hofa
him in grateful remembrance, ana
and this gratitude will not be di
minished-** the facts become more
fulW revealed. I hope and be
lieve. that at no diatant day
awakened and appreciative com
munity will endow and christen in
his name a aplendid benevolent
Institution, In order to complete - a
Work which had begun, ana as a
tangible expression of gratitude for
his unstinted public services.
But greater than material
achievement or business integrity,
is the heart—the soul of the man,
and 1 want you, Jus| for one mo
ment, to look with me upon the se
cret, sacred chambera of the heart
of Jas. W. Murray.
Impaired in health, he waa ar
ranging to retire from active 'busi
ness. Passionately fond of the wa
ter, he had sought out his ideal
place, and was preparing' to make
his home by the sea, where he
hoped, that, in constant communion
with the mighty deep, his health
would be restored. But some mys
terious mentor had whispered to
htm a message from another world.
When parting from his family early
in December, he prolonged the sad
farewelli, saying : "Something tells
me that I will never return to my
home again." Apprehending that
he would be unusually sad to be
away from home and his family at
Christmas time, the speaker spent
some days with him in Norfolk,
and more than once during this
visit Mr. Murray burst into tears,
saying, "Something, tells me that
the end is very near." Prom, Nor
folk Mr. Murray went to Beaufort,
N. C. And now as I reverently
lift the curtain, I want you to
catch Just one ztimpse of the heart
and the soul of the man. '
! It is the last day .of the dying
year. It is sunset—the last hour tof
the dying day. 'Standing beside a
friend, he is looking out across the
the peaceful waters of the sound,
| and through the inlet to where the
I blue Atlantic rolls. A tiny bark,
I with white sails wide-spread, pasaes
silently from the sound, out beyond
the bars, and is lost to view as the
I last lingering rays of sunlight fade
from the darkening sky. And then,
: all unconscious of the presence of
his friend, bursting into tears, un
covered and gazing still toward
the vanishing bark, his heart apa
soul found utterance in Tennyson-s
sweet words:
"Sunset and the evening .star,
And one clear call for me I
And may there be no moaning of
the bar,
When I put out to sea.
"But such a tide as moving seems
asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out
the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell.
Ana after that the dark)
And may there be no sadness of
farewell.
When I embark.
For though from out our bourne of
Tune and Place,
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to aee my pilot face to face,
When I have crossed the bar."

| Starts your liver without

' Calomel salivates! It's mercury,
Calomel acta like dynamite on a
sluggish .liver. When calomel
comes in contact with sour bile it
crashes into it causing griping and
nausea.
If you feel bilious,, headachy, con
' stlpated and all knocked out, Just
go to your druggist and get a. 50c
bottle of Doaaon's Liver Tone,
which ia a harmless vegetable
aubstitute for dangerous calomel.
Take a spoonful and if it doesn't
start your liver and straighten vou
up better and quicker than nasty
calomel, and without making you
, sick, you lust go and get your
money back.
If you take calomel today you'll
be sick and nauaeated tomorrow;
beaodea it may salivate you, while
If you take Dodson's Liver Tone
you will wake up feeling great, full
of ambition and ready for -work or
play. It's harmleaa, pleaaant and
