DEATH OF MR. COOPER.
The I: ml of n Long and Useful

Died ne.tr Vt'eldnn, N. ('., at the
home of his son, Mr. Thomas
A. Cooper, on Monday morning
last, Mr. H. S. S. Cooper, in the
7Sih year of Ins age.
The writer of this small appre
ciation of Mr. Cooper has perhaps
known him as long as any one
now living in W eldon. Her mind
goes back to a beautiful Sabbaih
day m July IMS, when at old
Pierce's church she first met him,
a young Confederate soldier, just
reiurned from following the fur
tunes of the immortal Lee and sac
rificing almost hlc itsell lor a cause
dear io Ins jnd all of our hearts.
From ihai day to this tint one word
has she ever heard thai would mar

work of God, a MAN. 01 Ins life
prior io this v.e are not informed,
but in the early seventies he came
to U'eldon as a druggist for Mr.T.
A. Clark whom he served faithfullv
and well until Mr. Clark closed his
business and retired into private
hie. Mr. Cooper was then em
ployed as a druggist by Dr. A. R.
Zolln'off'er behind whose prescrip
tion counier he was known for his
careful and faithful attention to the
needs of the suffering people of
Weldon to whom he was called to
give retier, always carelul, accu
rate, polite and interested he won
the confidence and resDect of all
Prior to his comine to U'eldnn he
married Miss Lliabeih Harvell, of
Halifax county, who, a few years
ago, preceded him to the bener
land. Togeiherthev reared a lame

i.ast week Mr. C. L. Sams.
specialist in Beekeeping, visted
our coumy to see what the nros
pects were for the successful rais
ing ol bees on a profitable scale
AMer taking a trip through the ud
per pan ol the county, it was not
until Mr. Sams saw the growth of
I upilo Bum and Black Gum in
Beach Swamp, that he decided
there was much of a chance of
growing bees on much of a scale
Wherever these two trees erow
there is abundance of honey fur
nished in early spring. In locali
lies where Gallberries and Hu.-lt.
lebernes grow around the swamp
tne conditions are almost ideal
Although there are other nlants
which fursish honey, the above
named plants, when growing near
together, make the most ideal con
ditions for bees in this section. Bee
colonies spaced all along Beach
Swamp, from Enfield tn vianri
."Neck should prove profitable,
probably more so down in Rose
neath lownshin
Those interested should see the
county agent, Mr. Frank G. Tar
box, so that he can arrange wilh
ir. sams to come down next
spring and give some methods of
handling them.
