Mrs. Newton was born Febru- ray 15, 1877, in the old Shaw homestead, first house to be built on the present site of Southern Pines and now restored by the Moore County Historical Associ ation. She was the daughter of “Squire” Charles Washington and Kate Blue Shaw, member^ of Scottish pioneer families. Mr. Shaw was Southern Pines’ firs’ mayor. When the Shaw house was of ficially opened in April, 1948, Mrs. Newton was honored at a tea held there by Mrs. W. C.

Later, she transferred her membership to Manly Pres byterian Church. She holds a life membership in the Manly Wom en of the Church organization. Surviving are one daughter, Mary Scott; two sons, Charles Edwin, chief of the Southern Pines Police Department, and Roy, both of Southern Pines; 7 grandchildren, and nine great grandchildren. A TRIBUTE In the death of Mrs. Newton, Moore County loses one more in the gallant company of Old- timers. As the veterans of the Grey ranks slip away, year by year, so do those hardy and upstanding souls, Moore County’s veterans, slip away, and the county and its people are the poorer. The poorer and yet not the poorer. For as each one goes, there comes a rush of memories, a flood-tide that grows and will always grow, testimony to the life that was lived and the inspir ation left for those who come after. “Oiu- echoes roll from soul to soul. And grow forever and forever.” Mrs. Newton was a real Old- timer, and the thought gave her, Always, much satisfaction. She loved to think and tell about the old times. She was descended di rectly from Moore County’s early settlers, and in her character the heritage was strong and clear, for she had the rugged, high- minded qualities of the early Scots. Kindly, keen of wit and mind, humorous, she was intensely in terested in life, loved her com- mnity, her friends and kips men; most of all, she loved her family, a devotion that was re turned in full. But back of everything in Mrs. Newton’s life, and the basic fab ric of her being, was her reli- gous belief that sustained and strengthened her; in the long ill ness and acute sufferin, which she endured, always the words, “God’s will be done,” were on her lips. Like those early settlers, her religion was her life. She was held in high esteem, in deepest respect by this com munity. She leaves many who mourn her going and who will ever hold in gratitude the mem ory of this long and fruitful life. —•K.L.B. mer EUen Fuller of Statesville; two daughters, Mrs. Meirgaret Romero and Mrs. John Stewart of Southern Pines: two brothers.
