By request of a ninmber of young
men, Rev. B,.S. Bronson, rector of
St. Timithy Episcopal Church de
livered a lecture toithem, last Sim
day evening, on "Character." At
the outset the question was asked
"what is character." After clear
ly ditining what was meant by the
word, tie earnestly impressed on
the minds of all tbe necessity of
cultivating habits of sobriety, firm
ness, thoroughness and work, and
the impossibdity of doing so with
out an object in lite. An" aimless
life was necessarily, an unsettled
and to some extent a characterless
one. , t
The address was Ian able one and
throughout, clearly showed the
nearty interest ot -tne speaker in
the moral and religious welfare of
the young men, and was replete
with examples and: apt illustrations
of the importance of the young men
being true to themselves. No mat
ter how cleverly a man masked
himself, or how long, something
would occur to teai: aside the vail,
and show him in ibis true colors.
On the-close lie reminded the
fathers and mothers an j older peo
ple that then were jhot guiltless if
they had not done lall in their pow
er to make homes .5 attractive, -and
places of lM'oeentj amusement, in
which to rent thei exuberance of
spirits natural to tfee young,
lliisbriet notices of the lecture
would be au Injustice to Mr. Bron
sou did we not addi.that it is in .jio
wise an outline of it, Mr. Bronson
has and deserves thanks of every
young man and ivery person in
Wilson, who has tje religions and
moral elevation at the young at
heart. j
The physicians of Wilson are
among the most progressive in the
State and they show their progres-.
siveness by their works. They have
organized the Wilson County Medi
cal Society and on last Tuesday
night they held a meeting and gave
a banquet that would have done
credit to a State Convention.
At 8 o'clock the members of the
county sotlety, accompanied by the
following visiting physicians, from
sister counties, assembled in the
Odd Fellows Dlall for the purpose
of discussing questions of interest
to the medical fraternity : Drs W
J JoDes, of Goldsboro; W C Gallo
way and J E Grimsley, of Snow
Hill j Boddie, of Fremont; F J
Thorpe, G W Wimberly, M B Bras
well and S B Dew. of Rocky Mount;
D W Bullock and J C Bras well, of
Whitakers; G W Lewis and Ed
wards, of Snrinanope : Best, of
Wayne county; and Noble, of Selma.
An excellent address of welcome
was delivered by Dr E G Moore, of
Toisnot. Dr W Broaie, President,
was in the chair.
The subiect for discussion was,
Digestion and its disorders."
The opening paper was read oy
Dr C E Moore and the discussion
Darticipated in by Drs Jones, Gal
loway, Bullock, Herring, W S
Anderson, Ruffin, King, Best and
Noble.
The discussions were eminently
practical and calculated to do great
good to the profession.
At 12 o'clock the party repaired
to the Brigg8 House where a ban
quet of the most luxurient supply
of all the good things known to the
human family was spread, The
bill of fare was, replete with all tbe
delicacies that could be procured
and those present partook heartily
of the good things set before them.
When the supper was about over
Dr J K Ruffin proposed the follow,
ing toasts, which were drunk with
hearty good will :

Responded to by Dr. W C. Gal
loway. The evening was a pleasant and
a profitable ne and we commend
our doctor brethren for the hand
some way in which they entertain
ed their visitors. We were pleased
to see so many of the physicians in
our midst.
One of the truest and best men
that it has ever been oar good for.
tune to know was .Mr. Frank M.
Aycock, who departed this life at
U1S UUUIO IU X' IClUUUt uomiunj
He had been confined to a
sickbed only a Bhort while
when he was called from his life of
usefulness to the realm of eternal
rest. He was a man in whose breast
beat a heart that was always in
sympathy with the suffering, and
whose purse was always open to
the call of the needy. We exagger
ate nothing when we say there was
no man in this section who bad a
deeper hold upon the affections of
those who knew bim than am iur.
Aycock. His heart was big and
generous he was a splendid busi
ness man and a broad minded
gentleman.
His remains were interred Sun

of friends were present to pav their

The farmer whose homestead
is mortgaged, is a slave.
He worts, not first of all for
his family, but for his creditors;
for his wife might be hungry
and his little ones be cold for
clothing, but the mortgagees
must be paid their interest,
whether or not for the debtor
there be rain or shine, good
crops or bad, health or sickness
or even dfla.t.h.
Aa a rule, the farmer who ousa-na dollars worth of Dry Goods, Groceries, Confectioner-
begins to borrow, never stuns ' ' usl eceivea at LivE & SONS,
until he is out of farm and
home. Little by little, the
interest destrpys his profits and
then eats up his capital, until.
finally, he is dispossessed from Women and Children can secure better bargains at LEE & SON'S
