We gladly welcome them as citi zens of our town. The first sign of spring has giv en the price of eggs considerable of a jolt in most of the rural sec tions, but the confounded thing is slow reaching Weldon. The robin and the blue bird are trying hard enough to put spring over but they have some more to do before the job is finished, and may get cold toes in the meanwhile.

Quite a large crowd was in attendance. Enfield, Halifax, Roanoke Rapids, Emporia and Kocky Mount and oilier towns were represented. The dance lasted until 2:30, and all, apparently, enjoyed tripping the light fantastic. - Death of Mr. T. J. Rook. Mr. T. J. Rook, a well known merchant and farmer who lived near Thelma, died suddenly at his home on Wednesday of last week He wai in his 78th year. The Roanoke Rapids Herald in -an nuuncing his deaih, says : "Mr. Rook was probably the olden resident in this community He came to our county many years ago from Virginia, and soon be came prominent in agriculture and mercantile circle. Being in dustrious and oossessing sound business judgment he accumulated much of worldly value and retired from active business several years ago." RUB-MY-T1SM is a powerful an tiseptic; it kills the poison caused from infeeted cuts, cures'old sores, idler, ac. yond. On SJiurday morning, February 28ih, alter a protracted illness of more liian two years duration, the very olJcsi cinzen of Weldon and one whom all loved and hon ored passed into the great beyond leaving a void in the hearts of many. That this is irue was wit nessed by the throng which gath ered in spile of extremely bad weather to pay tribute to her mem ory and follow her remains 10 their last resting place, and again in the exquisite flowers brought from far and near to grace her bier and be left upon the new made grave, hiding its stern realities under their lovely petals and graceful ferns. "Granny" or Mrs. Eugenia Whitfield Anderson was born in Weldon, Sept. 27, 1 84 J, the sec ond child of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Whitfield the first of whom came to Weldon when it was nothing but an orchard with a few dwell ings and one store building and remained one of its honored citi zens up to a ripe old age when he died beloved by all. She spent her childhood, young womanhood, a long and happy married life and then a season of useful widow hood in the town and community which she and her forbears have helped to build. She was married in December 1865 to Capiain Thomas F. An derson, whom she devotedly loved and to whom she was a helpmeet in every sense of the word and whose untimely death she had never ceased to mourn. With him she was strong in the most severe affliction which comes to anyone, in the violent and sudden death of a little son and the abnormal con dition of another dearly loved child whom she nursed and watched with the most tender care durirg the eight years of her short young life, and together they fed the hun gry, ministered to the sick, helped the poor and walked in the steps of Him who said "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these ye have ministered unto me." But the blow which came near wrecking her mind was in the sud den and tragic death of this lover, husband and partner of her sor rows as well as joys. Since then she has lived for and with her chil dren who have arisen and called her blessed and in gathering in friends whom she has bound to her with hooks of steel. Of these children there are four whose devotion stand out almost unparalelled, seven grand children and seven greatgrandchildren. To these as to many others her home was the place to find a welcome and a smile to cheer and help. In early girlhood she was con vened at the altar of the little Methodist church on the banks of the canal of which her mother was one of even who formed this first church ever built in Weldon, and unto death, "she knew in whom she had believed," and through all her extreme trials, her faith was like unto a little child's, still trusting Him to whom she had committed her all. She was buried in Cedarwood cemetery by the side of her husband, the ser vices conducted from the home by Rev. L. D. Hayman, and as the snowllakes fell into the open grave the words, "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord, they rest from their labors and their works do rollow them," fell as balm to the hearts of those who have known and loved her well. To those we would say, she is not here, but has gone before, and may we all so live that we may receive thatabun rlnni entrance that her life is a pledge has been hers. L T. W. Spring Opening.
