bar and axle of his buggy, which
was terribly torn up. Mr. Butler
was dead when found.
The evidence is that the horse ran
away, everything connected with the

The Mate's Olden LatlicW minister
Fnfcsett Awv-Siue PHuls.
Last Friday at his Jiowe near
Gold Hill, Rowan county, the deuth
of Rev. Samuel Rothrock, D. D., oc
curred.
He was born in Davidson cou ity,
bis ancestors being Hugernota.- His
father was a blacksmith.
Thirsting for a classical educa
tion, "he," says his biographer:
"otarted out on foot for Penn Cols
lege, March 27th, 1829, having
across his shoulders a little knap
sack containing a Bible and some
homexmade clothing, and only fifty
cents in money in his pocket, which
amount was to defray his expenses
of travel and college education. It
tcik him 20 days to make the trip,
a distance of 400 miles, wading
creeks aud rivers, and finding th;lter
and food the best he could. Arriving
at the college, footsore and tired, he
made report to the President, Rev.
Smucker, D. D., who received him
as a father, and directed and aided
him throughout his entire classical
and theological education. During
Lis stay of seven tears at the institu
tion at Gettysburg he made one
trip Loai3 and back, walking, both
ways. And when he graduated he
walked home, thus making the trip
of 400 miles four times over."
Ue was licensed as a Lutheran
minister in 1833. His first pastorate
was St John's, Salisbury for four
years. He was pastor of historic
Old Organ church in Rowan county
fcr 33 years. His entire active min
istry was spent in North Carolina
except one year.
The University of North Corolina
in 18S8 conferred the degree of D,
D., upon him.
His first wife, who was a Miss
Hoke, of Gettysburg', lived only one
year. He was married a second time
to Mrs. Amelia Arey, cf Rowan
county, with whom he lived for over
fifty year?. he died several years
ago.
During his long aad faithful min
istry he baptized about seventeea
hundred infants and adults; confirm
ed twelye hundred and twenty-nine
members; married four hundred and
seventeen couples; buried nine
hundred and twenty two people; an !
preacned over four thousand regular
sermons, besidea many public ad
dresses, and thousands upon thous
at ds of catechetical lectures and
pastoral visitations.
At his death he was 84 years, 11
months and 6 days old.
He leaves one child, Prof. L II
Rothrock, for a long time principal
of Mt. Amcena Seminary.
He had made all arrangements
about his funeral and burial, re
questing that Rev. W A Lutz preach
his funeral without eulogy, but to
say to the audience : "there lies a
sinner saved by grace." He also re
qnested that he should be buried in
a cheaper coffin and with less ex
pense than had leen bestowed upon
Lis deceased wife, whom he deemed
wor.hy of more respect, and atten
tion tbaa himself. ' The funfral
took place yesterday at Union
church, conducted by Pastor Lutz,
of Winston, assisted by Revs. A C
Brown, W P Huddle and C B King.
Rev. Lutz's discourse, taken from
the parable of the talents in the 25th
chapter of St. Matthews, was splen
did and was listened to by a large
audience. The body ot our beloved
"Father Rothrock," as be was
familiarly called, now rests in the
graye yard near Union ihurch but
his spirit must surely be in the
Paradise of God.
No blemish rests upon his charac
ter. Not a stain tarnishes the fair
name he has left behind him. Per
haps no one of the present genera
tion has fallen among us so univer
sally esteemed. The memory of
such a man cannot die. The in
fluence of snch a character cannot
be destroyed by death, "The right,
eons shall be held in everlasting re
membrance." "

CICERO THOMPSON CUT.
Bart Order rrcrails Tui'Mttny KisSit
Severat Itatlly Hurt anI ISnll liozon
or More Struck-
Shortly after sundown Tuesday
night bad blood began to show itself
among some of the negroes and a
disorderly class of white people who
usually carouse around and "pick"
f usse3 and cause contamination.
The first scrapping staried in fie
rear of Patterson's store, be'weon
two colored boys, Henry Phifer,
Democratic and John Johnson,
fusion. This fuss was soon stopped
Not long after this rucus, how
over, it broke out again, in which
Henry Phifei and Jake Plunket
were struct with rook, each receiv
ing a wound on their face and head.
A disorderly white man, we don't
know his name, was run against by
one colored boy Ed Martin, the re
sult of which ended in JMaitin's
being knocked into the ditch. This,
of course, drew a crowd. Severa
parties were endeavoring to quiet the
crowd, but of no avail. Cicero
Thompson was in the crowd, and in
trying to pass, some one said, "there's
a Democratic negro, kill him '" Roe
fell back and said he vas cut. He
was taken immediately to- Dr.
Young's office, and had he not ob
tained the necessary attention he
probably would have bled to death.
The man who did the coutting is
supposed to be a white man. lie
made a break for liberty and got it.
A mob followed him in close pur
suit, but he evaded their clutches,
and so far ne is yet unknown. Roe
Thompson is one of the best colored
citizens in our" city, and had the
treacherous scounderl who made
the fearful gash been caught he
would have been mobbed.
The knife entered under the left
arm, rnnninsr diasronallv down his
left side and back. Drs. Young and
Pharr dressed the wound.
Abc'jt 930 o'clock an unruly mob
gathered front of the store of WaF
ren Coleman, and it ia thought this
is where the rocks wert thrown from
that Eang in a whizzing tone so
familiarly around the heads of the
people in passing along the brick
row opposite to Coleman's store.
At least twenty people were struck
with rocks during the night. Among
them were Messrs J L Bogery Chief
of Police; Herbert Cook, Clarence
Emery and Luther Goodman. Young
Goodman received quite a severe
wound on top of his head.
- Several rocks were thrown through
the windows m the brick row, one
passing through the door of Mr.
Brow n'B shoe shop.
Only two policemen were on the
street and of course when their ap
pearance was noticed, the rocks
would cease to fall so freely.
It was unsaf a for anyone to
for a while.
After the crowd ceased to throw
rocks, Mayor Crowell detailed eight
or ten men to "stop it."
