CONCORD, N". C. MONDAY, AUGUST 22, 1892. Whole fco. ?2lP THUD IJlJjj NEYEXTII ANNUAL CONVENTION, Of the Woman's Home and Foreign Blisfona Society of yie N. C. Synod ' of thc2;. L. Church. This convention wa3 held at St. Peter's church, Rowan Conhtr, Nv C, the 17th aud 18th, of August, 1S92. . The attendance was good. Mort were present than could be seated comfortably in the large church. TSe people Jook great interest in the exercised of both clays. This convention is made up of delegates from the various MissPonary socie ties in the N. 0. Synod, ifad there was a full representation. One of the loaders in the work, a Cabayus lady, Miss Julia Siiirey,' was sadly missed, and proper reso lutions were passed in reference to her d'eath. A suitable address of welcome was read by. Miss Lizzie Trexler, and an aj propriate respond was made by Miss Leah Blackwel der, of Mt. Pleasant. Reports of officers showed that good work had been done during the past year. The amount of mon ey raised fell a little below what had been expected, but there was no indication of discouragement and the convention, with cheerful d?ter mi nation, resolved to try to rais more than ever nt year The aim is to bring up $700, ot which $100 is to be used for home missions and $300 for foreign missions. Rev- is L Probst, the able secre- . tary of the Board of Missjons for the south was preseut and made a Boal-slirring address of over a half hour, besides other short talks. Rev. W A Tin, tho missionary at W'n- Bton addressed the convention with reference to the important work in which he is engaged. Rev. 0 A Mark, of China Grove, filled, by previous appointment, a place in the programme, and aptly showed how "The love of Christ Constraineth us." He dwelt with emphasis on each word of the passage quoted 1. "Love," 2. "Love of Christ' 3. "Constraineth,'' 4. "Us." Rev. J Q Wertz, of Rowan, also made a fine address, and Mrs. Wertz, who had been selected for the purpose, read an interesting paper on the increase of interest in iuembr3 of the local societies. A.loug letter ".vas read from Rev. J A B Scherer, a.iittive o& Rowan, who is now in ihe work in Japan. Rev. R B Peery, of Virginia, deliv ered a goo;l and thoughtful ddress. He will go to Japan as our second missionary some time this fall! lie and Rev. Scherer are both able and consecrated vounjr men .Miss Lula Stafford, of Winston, read a splendid paper on the v rk that the Woman' society in The south had accomplished. T Misses Cora and Lu!a Patn terson, of China Grve, filled wel1, places that were assigned to them. I will not ask space to say the much more that I would like to add with refereriOe to this meeting, The next convention will be at Union church, Rowan county, about the middle of August next. The officers of the convention are: President, Miss EB Shirej; 1st. Vice President, Mrs. C A Marks; 2nd. Vice President, Mrs. VV R Brown; Recording Secretary, Mrs. S V Walton; Corresponding Secre tary, Miss Cora Patterson. The people about St. Peter's ens tertained the delegates and visito3 in a most gratifying manner, and tbey had the church handsomely decorated fr tho occasion vith flowers, mottos, &c. Tli3co:rmon yerdict in eyer particular, otj the ftntire occasion w?s: "That thote was a gracious blessing from Cod, and a consequent grand success." B. S. Brows. VEAVRR AT I'l'l.ASKI, TENS. The Story of His Ifcobbery and Ofmres- iouf (he Ieoile he busies and Amounts f.iveu I ideuce Which Cannot lie Denied. To the Editor Charlotte Observer : Having seen in some paper an acs count of Gen. Weavers conduct while in charge at Pulaski, Tenn., I wrote to the clerk of the county court for either a verification or de nial of the charges. I received the letter which I send ygu. Very respectfully, W. E. Abeunethy. . Rutherford College, Aug. 19. Pulaski, Tenti., Ag. 15, '92, Mr Will E. Abernethy, Rutherford College. N. C.. Dear Sirr Your letter of inquiry in regard to the acts of Gen. Weaver while in command of this place was handed me to answer. I, wa3 be tween fifteen and sixteen years old when Weaver wuS here, and I know whereof I write, and in support of what I shall write, I refer to a few citizens Cf this county : J P May,, president People's National Bank ; Z W Ewing, ex-speaker of the senate; llourney Rivers, state senator ; J B. Stacey, ex-clerk and mastei of chancery court; Thos E McCoy, sheriff Giles county ; Colonel Solon E Rose, Dr Wm Battle, Dr J C Roberts ; S W Butler, judge of county court; R II Ragsdale, county trustee, and h E Abernethy, presi dent commercial bank and trust .company. Most of these men were here and Jmow the facts. The oth ers know from reputation. The said Weaver seemed to have a perfect hatred for the southern people, lie pillaged, robbed, perse cuted, villified and abased our peo ple in every imaginable way. He had citizens arrested and im prisoned on trumpe up charges, and made to pay to be rehped. He made the friends of I) K Cox pay $500 .'or his release. Mr Cox is dead, but his son, Ed R Cox, is liv ing here, and can testify to said facts. S. can Maj J B Stacey and Col S E Rose, friends cf Cox, who paid part of tlie money. He robbed Mr Jasper Cox (no relation of D K. Cox) of $2,000 worth of spun thread. 1 Jasper Co is a reliable citizen of thi3 county, ifhd now lives near Bodens ham,Gile3 county, Tenn He robbed John P Williams, ar? old reliable farmer aod soldier of the Mohican war of all his Ugs and mal. !r WilPams' post office is this pl4i. m He had Dr J C Robert?, of this place, arrested and tried to make him pay $500 for his release, but after he found out that the doctor would rot pay it, he turned him Irse. The doctor is now living, and will answer any letter. On Janury 20, 1804, he made the fol lowing parties pay him the sum3 opposite their names. I have the original receipt he gave my father, Charles C Abernethy. All the par ties are dead, except Dr Win Battle, who will cheerfully bear me out : Th03 Martin, $250; Dr Wm Bat tle, $100 ; Chas C Aberneth y, $250 t Robert Dickson, $2oO ; J II .New bill, $100; J M Morris, $100; David I Reynolds, $250 ; B Abernethy, $200; Thos B Daly, $200. Total, $1,70. lie claimedin'his order that it was for the support of Union re- fugeescom!ng within hi3 .lines. rThos E Daly, ton of Thos B Daly, i nr out i-ii c t t t t bill, are.living here and will answer any inquiry. I could give other in r.idpnt rw ants of a.aid Weaver, if necessary. J. P. Abehnethy. A conductor, in the Cincinnati j Times-Star, eajs : "It costs jnst 70 1 cents to eton a train, and for that! reason the avernge commuter train does not pay running expenses' Take our line out as f fir as Sharon, for in stance. It is i nst about sixteen miles frQm the city, and is the six teenth top for a commuter train. That makes the cobt of stopping trains 70 cents n mile. The average comnuiter jates ij two-thirds of a cent n mile.. So you see to pay the co:.t of stopping trains alone we must carry about 10O passengers over every mile. Then there the engines consumes an extra half ton of coal every time we stop at Gano or the grade above Sharon. I tell you, when I figure up the running expen ses of these trains I congratulate myself that I am on a s Uary and do not own a railro .u." SEWS KOTJ'.M.
