'DEADLY WEAPON'
Woman’s Slipper
With Spike Heel
Used in Assault
If you’ve had a feeling the
spiked-heeled shoes women are
wearing these days look rather
like deadly weapons, you are
right. That’s the way one was
classified in a warrant read Tues
day in Moore County Recorders
Court at Carthage.
Winnie Jane Pratt, 29, of Vass
was charged with unlawfully and
wilfully assaulting Rosia E. Nixon
“with a deadly weapon, to wit:
a woman’s spike-heeled slipper.”
For the assault, and also for as
sault and battery on a peace of
ficer, and for “resisting, delaying
and obstructing said peace officer
in the performance of his duties,”
Winnie Jane drew 90 days in
Moore County jail, suspended for
two years on payment of $50 and
costs and good behavior condi
tions, which included no similar
offenses during the two - year
period.
Vass Night Officer James R.
Grissom issued the second war
rant, charging her with biting and
scratching him and otherwise
failing to cooperate when he tried
to break up the scrap in which
the spike-h jel slipper was being
used as a ’veapon.
The sequence of events took
place during a Christmas night
celebration at the Vass Capital

havior conditions, which included
refraining from taking any alcho-
lic beverage home and drinking
in the presence of his children.
Junior Jordan, 19-year-old Rob
bins youth, was in court for dis
orderly conduct, malicious dam

Payment Made from Fund for Care of

Neill Stewart
Dies in Georgia
Neill Stewart, 83, formerly of
Carthage, died Sunday in Villa
Reca, Ga.
Funeral services were conduct
ed Tuesday at the Carthage
Methodist Church, by the Rev.
Robert Moore, assisted by the
Rev. W. S. Golden.
Surviving are one daughter,
Mrs. Frances Buffalo of Atlanta,
Ga., and one sister, Mrs. Emma
Cole of Carthage.
Sunday, December 31, 1961, was
a red letter day in the history of
Union Church and Cemetery.
Sunday afternoon Wilbur H.
Currie of Carthage met with the
session of Union Presbyterian
Church, located about midway
between Carthage and Vass, and
presented to the session a deposit
receipt for $1,200 received from
a $30,000 trust fund to be used to
beautify the cemetery and
grounds of the historic old church.
In 1945 Wilbur H. Currie and a
half dozen others interested in
the perpetual upkeep of the
Union Church Cemetery and
Church grounds started a drive
to raise a perpetual care fund.
Others in addition to Mr. Currie
Were John R. McQueen, W. H.
McNeill, W. D. McNeill, T. L.
Blue, John S. McLauchlin and
Make McLean.
It was a brighl day, and yet a
sad day for Wilbur Currie. Sad
because all the others who helped
initiate the perpetual care drive
have since died; and a bright day
because he was able to see the
fulfillment of the group’s objec
tive for a perpetual care trust
fund for the historic cemetery
and church grounds. Currie, an
elder in Carthage Presbyterian
Church and State Senator from
Moore County, said that his heart
was sad because the others who
helped start the project had gone
on before the perpetual care goal
had been reached.
Some $22,000 of the $30,000 wa-
left to the perpetual cemetery
fund by the late Mrs. Sallie A
Currie. The other $8,000 was con
tributed by cemetery plot owners
and friends of the church.
First officers of the Union
Church Cemetery Association
were: John R. McQueen, presi
dent; John S. McLauchlin, secre
tary; and Wilbur H. Currie, treas
urer. Following Mr. McQueen’s
death in 1951, W. H. McNeill was
elected president.
Present officers of the Associa
tion are: Jackie McQueen of
Dunn, president; J. Mallie Kelly,
vice president; Miss Bess McCas-
kill, secretary; and W. H. Currie,
treasurer.
The Wachovia Bank & Trust
Company has been named trustee
for the $30,000 ancj will have com
plete charge of investing the
funds and turning over the inter
est once each year toRhe session
of the church whose responsibil
ity it shall be to use the funds for
the perpetual beautification and
upkeep of the cemetery and
church grounds. The sesion has
church grounds. The session has
the complete responsibility of
as it deems best to carry out the
perpetual care program.
Union Church is one of the few
rural churches in the state with
an endowed upkeep program for
cemetery and grounds.
Members of the Union Church
session meeting Sunday afternoon
with Mr. Currie -were the Rev. A
C. Trivette, pastor and moderator;’’
and elders Ira Turnley, A. V. Au-
trey, Gilbert -M. Bailey and J.
Mallie Kelly.
In accepting the $1,200 deppsit
credit slip the Rev. Trivette ex-
presed the appreciation of the
session for the work of Mr. Currie
and his associates.
Mr. Currie also said that the
late U. L. Spence, Carthage at
torney, was most helpful in work
ing out the details of the Cem
etery Association and its perpetu
al care program.
During 1960 scholarships were
awarded to 135 youths by the
pulp and paper industry in the
South. In addition, there were 1,-
087 youths in industry-sponsored
camps, and the companies con
ducted 170 school forest programs.
