The name Bayer is on every tablet, and on the box. If it says Bayer, it’s genuine; and if it doesn’t, it is not! Headaches are dispelled by Bayer Aspirin. So are colds, and the pain that goes with them; even neuralgia, neuritis, and rheumatism promptly relieved. Get Bayer—at any drugstore— with proven directions. Physicians prescribe Bayer Aspirin; it does NOT affect the heart Aspirin is the trade mark of Bayer Manufacture of Monoaceticacidester of Salicylicacid writing. Hope he will soon be well.

Washington Letter (Continued from Page One) tions committee, demanded a re port on the extent to which the gov ernment had become embroiled in Nicarauga. A Senate committee was unable to get answers to two questions put to Robert W. Stewart, chairman of the board of the Standard Oil Com pany of Indiana. Mr. Stewart was testifying in the Teapot Dome mess. So the Senate was about to send him to the calaboose for contempt when the courts stepped in and released him on SI,OOO bond. George W. Wickersham, one-time attorney gen eral, left his comfortable New York office to come down and fight the Senate’s fight in the courts. And John D. Rockefeller, Jr., wrote a letter saying Mr. Stewart had been asked to tell the truth in full. In away, John D., the younger, is Stew i, i i art’s boss. With a woman sitting in the s Speaker’s chaii\ the House heard a 4 story, almost unbelievable, of condi- < tions in the Pennsylvania soft-coal fields where the union still battles. As this was' going on, Mr. Lowden, a the big boss of the prohibition squad <j announced that he was going to see n to it that Houston and Kansas City < were dry when the conventions met. i And “Uncle Andy” Mellon told the < press that those little dollar bills the j government is working on would be i issued about the first of next Oc- < tober. < They are to be smaller, by al- < most an inch in length and three- < quarters of an inch in width, than the present bills, but will buy just < as much. Later on all bills will be < of the same abbreviated dimensions i and the government will retire the < larger ones. WHERE IS NEW HOPE? ! (A Bit of Orange County History) \ By MRS. MARY E. BERRY I 4 Quoting from O. J. Peterson of the j Chatham Record: “History tells us c ! that Tryon’s army marching to Hills- < | boro, before the Battle of Alamance, i camped at New Hope one night-ami Iwe have been wondering if the folk 1 ! over there know at wha# point, the | site, then called Jtfew Hope, was lo- 4 cated?” The settlement called New Hope < is midway between Chapel Hill and 4 Hillsboro, with New Hope church as a center. In the early days there 4 was no Presbyterian church in Chap- 1 el Hill. People of this faith wor- \ shipped at New Hope. Dr. James 4 Phillips, professor of mathematics in the University, preached there 30 j years ago. His son, Dr. Charles | 4 Phillips and the Hon. David L. Swain 4 were members of this congregation. J In describing this church, it will 4 be interesting to give the record of 1 one of its founders, Gilbert Stray- 4 horn. He was born in Pennsylvania 4 in 1715; came to the Hawfields in 1 1740 and was one of the rounders of 4 that church. Dissatisfied with the 4 titles to liis land in the Hawfields, 2 he, moved down into Orange county 4 where he purchased a large tract of J land from the Earl of Granville, 1 which he called “a New Hope.” Lat- 4 er he deeded “to the subscribers of j New Hope church two hundred acres 4 of land.” Around one of the trees, 4 near the church, it was the custom 1 of the members of the congregation 4 to stack their guns during the ser- 4 vice while a sentinel kept watch to 2 give the alarm in case Indians ap- < proached. * Gilbert Strayhorn, his four sons < and his sons-in-law served in the < Revolutionary War. His brother-in- law, James Hunter., ‘ “King- of the < Regulators”, lived ,at University sta- < tion. » His home was burned by the * British, the family fleeing in the < night to the home of Gilbert Stray- * horn, where they remained until the \ end of the war. A price had been <1 placed on the head of James Hunter. 4 Gilbert Strayhorn’s grand-son. His \ great-grandson, Lieut. Thomas Stray- < horn, of the Orange Guards, was 4 mortally wounded at Reams Station < in 18G3. Thirty members of the < FOR SALE : < i 1,000 acres of land for sale near \ Moncure, Chatham county, N. C., 30 i miles west of both Raleigh and Dur- 4 ham. It is divided into tracts at 18 1 to 357 acres. Some clay land and 4 some sandy land. It’s well wooded < and some cleared. Several with < houses and improvements. Average 4 price from $lO to sls per acre. 30 J years in which to pay. If you live 4 in central North Carolina come to ] see rather than write. If you have < land for sale confer with me. 4 < W. W. Stedman i Moncure, N. C. J THE CHATHAM RECORD I New Hope congregation gave their lives in the War between the states, most of whom were descendants of this man. Quite a number of Gil bert Strayhorn’s descendants were in the World War, both officers and enlisted men, amonj them being Lieut. Henry Johnson, who lies at Chatteau Tierry. Gilbert Strayhorn is buried at New Hope, near the church, in the old graveyard, where many heroes lie sleeping. Should it be necessary to ask: “Where Is New Hope.” MAY-CRUTCHFIELD The Record extends congratula tions to Mr. George May on his mar riage Saturday evening to Miss Myrtle Crutchfield. The marriage took place at the home of Mr. W. H. Daffron in Hickory Mountain town ship. The ceremony was performed by Rev. R. R. Gordon, who happen ed to be spending the night at Mr. Daffron’s home. The bride is the charming daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. L. N. Crutcth field, who live at Lockville. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. F. May of Blair Hotel. George is a hard worker, sober and upright, and his friends wish much joy, long life and prosperity for himself and his bride.
