Solicitor Richard Alls brook, of Tarboro, represented the State. -» .—....—_ The charge of Judge Carter was a rather pleasant departure from the usual cut and dried definitions of the various crimes. He weut only into details sufficiently to in form the jury in a general way of the various phases of their duties. In plain words he presented to the their official duties. That they must separate themselves from personal prejudices or favors and investigate and true t presentment make of all criuie committed with in their knowledge or brought to their notice. Whether they were in sympathy or opposed to tl)e law, it remained their duty to see that the law wan enforced. That if the law was not; being enforced, piiblic sentiment was largely responsible for its nor enforcement. That to permit any law to be constantly broken with out regard to its enforcement, created criminal public seatiment. His chaegt- was especially upon the carrying of pistols, Ittiivca and razors, alld the illicit sale of whiskey. Jude Carter says his at titude .toward the criminal law is not to make spectacular sentences, but to make suich a disposition of each individual case as will tend to lessen crime and Create a law-abid ing sentiment. His sentences have been in keeping with this position and have been satisfactory to both the law-breakers and the bar. The Grand Jury was composed of the following: C. D Jenkins, 15 O. Cowing J. D. Hflrdison, S E. Roberson, J. M. Oakley, W. J. Lilley, Ira F. Griffin, J. 11. Reil -J. C. Ross, G. R. Ward, Warren W. Waters, W. K. Roe btkk, W. T. Coburn, T. R. Davis, Jesse H.

She was born in this county at Everetts and was the second daugh ter of Mr. L. B. and Mrs. Ella Wynne. She was 24 years old the 3rd of October last. Though she had been a great sufferer, yet she had strong hope that she would recover, but God knew what was best and prepared her for her departure as she gave herself to Him. Quiet, modest, gentle, and lovely in disposition, she loved her home and people and cared but little for the pomp and vanity of the world. As a steno grapher she did excellent work and commanded the esteem of those who employed her. Proficient and oblifj itig her work was appreciated. As a Sunday School scholar her at tendance well was almost per feet. She was a member of the Philatheas. and as a rule attended the sittings of that j when fccalih permitted she rarelv missed any Church service.

Conscious to ! the end she was not without know ledge tlrut the messenger was call -1 ing for her to answer the summous of the King. When the end came it was quiet and peaceful.- Sbe leaves a lather, mother, four sisters and two small brothers to mourn their loss. ' The funeral setvices were con ducted from the home at half pa it 2 o'clock Wednesday. A large number of relatives and friends gathered to pay the last tributes of respect to her memory and the beautiful casket covered with most beautiful flowers was drawn to the Baptist Cemetery, where all that was mortal was interred to remain till the morning of the resurrection. Rev. Geo. J. Dowell conducted the services and the frjeuds left hoping to meet again where there will be no sad farewell. The sympathies of the good people of Williamston extend to the stricken family, and commend them to the great Healer for the Balm that will always soothe for comfort in this hour of their sorrow. "Dearest sister, thou hast left us, And thy loss we deeply feel; But tis God that has bereft us, He can all our sorrows heal." — How Cold Causes Kidney Disease Partly by driving blood from the surface and Congesting the kidneys,! and partly by throwing too much work upon them.
