RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT
On January 8, 1932, God, in His
all wise power, called from us one of
the most beloved members of Rocky j
Hill baptist church, Mrs. Lena
Bishop.
The writers cannot find words to
express what this saintly lady has
meant to. our church and community.!
Her life was filled with consecration
and love for h'er master and His love, j
She had been a member of the !
W. AL U. since its organization, and
her prayers and contributions were
always present.
Therefore be it resolved:
First, that we, the members of the
Woman's Missionary Society of Rocky ?
Hill Baptist Church, bow in humble'
submission to the will of our Father,
whom she loved to serve. We shall not
cease to miss her wise counsel and I
cheerful help in the activities of this
society.
Second, that we extend to her
devoted family our love and deepest
sympathy, assuring them that we do
not sorrow as those who have no
hope.
Third, that a copy of these resolut
ions be sent to the family, and on"
recorded in the minutes of the
Missionary Society. ?

STORIES TOLD OF i
MINING OPERATIONS
(Continued, from j>apc one)
or grooved, and finally turned into a
gun that held up at a distance of two
hundred yards or more with a pre
cision that is not surpassed even to
day with all the finer arts of gun
making known to man.
People who came from miles and
miles to the Gillespie gun shop for
their rifles, naturally were prone to
stock up with ammunition with which
to load their gun: In this way an
ever growing demand for leaden bun
lets,, also an art at which the
Gillespies of that day were noted for
making, caused Mr. Gillespie to cast
about for a place from which he could
procure lead for the moulded balls
that he sold to his many customers.
That is where the lead mine story
comes in.
It is not known how or when the
Gillespies learned of the legendary
lead deposit or how this information
was acquired, but the story as told
by the late Mr. H. C. Gillespie to his
son, Ed, was something on this order:
Mr. H. C. Gillespie, when but a
small lad, (He passed away some six
years ago at the ripe age of 91).
remembered leaving his home in the
Mills River section with his grand
father, maker of the famous "M. C.
G." guns, with two saddle horses and
four pack horses, and coming in the
direction of the present Brevard on
an expedition to procure lead.
According to the story told by the
late Mr. Gillespie, he and his grand- 1
father traveled nearly a day on hoive- i
back, following the ridges, there I
being but few trails in this section of I
North Carolina at that time, to what
seemed to him in later years as beinfr
tl.j Davidson River section.
After fording a Rood sized stream,
which could have been either David
son River or the French Broad, the
animals were tethered and after going
for only a short distance on foot, the
elder Gillespie located his markings,
cleared a small space in a creek or
small stream that had been carefully
camouflaged, and with an axe pro
ceeded to hew large chunks of lead
from the bed of the stream until
sufficient amount was obtained to
load the pack horses with full loads.
The lode was again carefully
covered in such manner that the pa?
serby would not see anything amiss,
and the return trip begun back to
tue Gillespie home.
"eason ?s advanced for the care
fully guarded secret as advanced by
the late Mr. Gillespie was that there
were at that time Indians in this
section, who in their enmity to the
whites, would if they found any metal
of value to the wlr'te man, destroy it
in an effort to retaliate for the wrong
which they felt had been done the
Red Men by the palefaces.
Only one trip of this kind was
recalled by Mr. Gillespie in his
narration to his son, Ed, and this
trip being made as it was when he
was but. a small youngster, he was
very vague as to exact distances and
locations, with the exception of being
jn the direction of Brevard, and the
approximate up-hill, down-hill travel
of the day placing the journey's ?nd
in the neighborhood of the Davidson
River section.
A rough sketch, which Mr. Ed
Gillespie remembers seeing in the pos

SHERIFF MAILING
OUT TAX NOTICES!
Sheriff T. E. Patton, acting in his j
capacity as tax collector for Transyl- j
vania county, last week mailed 1
to his many friends throughout the ;
county greetings in the form of a t
little folded slip, which when opened ?
measures three and one-half inches j
by eleven.
"Please remit" is the general theme
of all these little notes from the j
sheriff, and have reference to taxes j
due the county and state. Penalty will j
be added to the total amount, accord- !
ing to a notation in the left hand
corner of the notice, unless paid be
fore February. -
With the rate down to S1.69 on the j
hundred dollar valuation, many peo- j
pie will haave a sigh of relief, at the
noticeable reduction, which is in a ;
large part made possible by the j
State taking over the public school ,
system and the road sysjtem. And !
then, too, many people will pay their ,
taxes with ;. larger degree of satis
faction this year than heretofore, by
reason of the fict that they can see
visible results of their tax money in
the magnificent highways and cross
country roads constructed and being
constructed jn Transylvania.

Tanner's Slogan
men ? WOMEN ? BOYS and GIRLS? if you have
already bought a pair of Tanner Shoes, there is no
need of your reading this advertisement. I am making
this appeal to those who have never had the comfort
of a Tanner Shoe with those restful arches built-in. I
received the new spring and summer catalogue from
the factory one week in advance of the real samples. I
sold 16 pair of Men's and Women's Shoes before the
samples reached me.
Folks who have once bought Tanner shoes don't
care anything about the real samples, they know what
they are going to get and that is why you have to
advertise ONE TIME ONLY. Tanner's make all sizes
and width A to triple E ? from 8 1-2 child's to 14 men's
Price range from $2.85 to $7.95. Made tof Measure.
You may be able to buy cheaper shoes, but you c*n't
buy another pair of feet.
Remember the feet carry the whole body all
all night. Why then do we not buy shoes that will
fort the feet ? instead of imposing on them to save
a few cents. Tanner arch is the keystone of foot-ha
piness with the combination heel patterns, assuring
snug heel fit. Don't forget that with this great line of
Tanner's shoes we sell Real Broadcloth Shirts, Rolls
Royer underwear, ties and hosiery. Come give me your
order on a 7-day delivery.
