Page FIVE Wellman Tells Historical Association About Work in Writing Moore History Everett Case Not Heard Last Week A number of cases were con tinued when the November term of Superior Court ended at Carth age early last Friday afternoon, one of them being the second-de gree murder case against Alex Everett, 82. The old man had been indicted by the grand jury earlier in the week for the fatal shooting of Henry Boggs, formerly of South ern Pines, last September 6. Re leased under $2,500 bond, he will continue under this bond and is not expected to leave his small farm on Carthage, Route 3, where he has lived a hermit'-like exis tence for many years. He claims he shot Boggs, aged about 50 in self-defense. Few believe Everett will draw the maximum of 30 years on the murder charge. The minimum is two years. Reports on other Superior Court eases appeared in last week’s Pilot and also are on other pages of today’s paper. Manly Wade Wellman, of Chapel Hill, came back to his old stamping-ground, Moore County, Tuesday night to be the speaker at the fall meeting of the Moore County Historical Association. The meeting was held in the council room of the Town Hall. As the first meeting of the sea son, it was also the first meeting to be presided over by the new president, Norris L. Hodgkins, Jr. Author Wellman gave the audi- nce a rundown on the history of the second hundred years of Moore County on which he is now at work. This will be Mr. Wellman’s thirty-sixth publica tion, he told the members, and his third county history. He spoke with enthusiasm of the present work, saying he had undertaken it largely because! of his great love of Moore County which had increased as he had poured over its past records. He described graphically the many difficulties encountered in such work: pour ing over records, ■ letters and deeds. He spoke especially of the great source of knowledge to be found in the census records of the past. “You get caught up in the lives of all those people,” he said, “and, feeling at home in Moore County as I do, I find writing this history is a particularly enrich ing, enlivening experience.' Wellman mentioned Faulkner and Jesse Stuart among other authors who took single regions for their locale. Thoreau, he said, had written about Walden and made chat small pond as interesting as the seven sefes, for all the philos ophy and knowledge he gained from it. The speaker also touched on the great value of record keeping by local citizens such as the his tory of Pinebluff which Mr. David Packard of that town had been asp sembling. Wellman described his own m.sthods of collecting data and this led, at the close of his ad dress, to several questions on this subject from the\ audience. The last, posed by Attorney J. Talbot Johnson, of Aberdeen, concern ed the passage through Moore County at the time of the Civil War of General Kilpatrick’s cav alry. Mr. Johnson gave a lively rendering of the story of Old Man Ray, from near Bethesda, and the loss of his beaverskin coat following capture by the soldiers. Previous to the Wellman ad dress, reports on the Shaw House, recently opened, and the Alston House, by the two chairmen, Mrs. McColl and Mrs. Ives, were heard. John A. McPhaul gave the treas urer’s report; Mrs. L. T. Avery, secretary, was in her usual place with the minute books. The speaker was introduced by Edwin T. .McKeithen, chairman of the Moore County History Committee. Mr. McKeithen said that letters would be sent out for a pre-publication sale, according to the system carried out in the sale of the first history, probably around January first.

CULBRETH'S Southern Pines Pharmacy Southern Pines Tel. OX 5-5321 (At Railway Station) OLD Ground Water in Area is Adequate State Report Says A report containing a descrip tion of ground-water conditions of Moore County was issued this week by the North Carolina De partment of Water Resources. It is entitled “Geology and Ground-Water Resources of thet, Fayetteville Area,” which is de fined as including Cumberland, Harnett, Hoke, Lee, Montgomery, Moore, Richmond, Robeson,* and Scotland counties in south-central North Carolina. About 75 per cent of the pop ulation of the Fayetteville area us.es public or private ground- water supplies, requifirtjg about 40 million gallons a day. The re port suggests that ground-water use in the area may be greatly in creased without danger of over use. The publication contains brief summaries of the gebgra^y, geology, and ground-water resources of each county of the area, covering 4,834 square miles and lying in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain provinces of the State. With each county description are included tables of well data, water analyses, a geologic map, and a map showing the location of wells for which data are given. Records of 468 wells and chemical analyses of the water from 66 wells are presented. The report was prepared as part of a Statewide investigation conducted cooperatively by the North Carolina Department of Water Resources and the U. S. Geological Survey. It is available to well drillers, agricultural agen cies, industrial development groups, and county and municipal officials of the nine counties. Copies may be obtained by writing the North Carolina De partment of Water Resources, P. O. Box 9392, Raleigh.
