? Goshen Medical Center Hires Physician Assistant David Reeves, P.A. A physician's assistant can treat about 80 percent of the patients who walk through the doors of a family prac ) titioner's office, said David Allen Reeves at Goshen Medical Center in Faison. Reeves is a 1978 graduate of Duke University's physician assistant program. ""The theory behind the physician assistant is to free cnntp nf ?has H/tMnr'c iimo ""???V u? l"IV uuviut J I1IIIV IU spend with the sicker oatients," Physician's Assis tant David Reeves said. "A physictan'i assistant is trained to diagnose and pre scribe treatment of most common complaints and ill nesses and refer the patients with more serious illnesses to the physician. And, part of the same theory is to try to improve the quality of medi cal attention without in creasing the cost to the patient." Reeves began work with Goshen Medical Center this month after five years of work with an arthritis spe cialist in Asheville. Reeves is a native of Beaumont, Texas. At the medical center. Reeves works with internist Dr. Jeff Margolis. "Work with Goshen Medical Center is the type of position I wanted when 1 graduated, but at the time, a physician's assistant was salaried less than a regis tered nurse," Reeves said. "At Goshen I treat a diverse spectrum of diseases and illnesses in all ages of people. And. most of all I enjoy seeing more children where I rarely saw young sters during my years with the arthritis specialist." 'Vmong the patients treated i by Reeves are the migrant youths, which he said are similar to his experiences while working with an ar tillery medical station during the Vietnam conflict. Reeves *served 19 months as an Army clinical specialist which, he said, gave him the ex perience required for accep tance into the Duke Univer sity Physician's Assistance Program. "1 speak Spanish, so I understand many of the mi grants," Reeves said. "But when you don't speak their language it is difficult to understand and prescribe treatment. We (Dr. Jeff Margolis and Reeves) are very concerned about AIDS among the migrants because the disease seems to be striking people whose de fenses are down. We are very aware of the problem and are staying on our toes in our treatment of the mi grants and hoping it does not show up in the migrant population of this area." Reeves is married and has three daughters. He met his wife, Nhut, while in Viet nam; she worked as an inter preter. In 1971, Reeves was awarded the Bronze Star Medal for Meritorious Ach icvent in Vietnam and he graduated Magna Cum Laude from thf physician's assistance program at Duke University. He is a member of the N.C. Academy of Physician's Assistants, the American Academy of Phy sician's Assistants and the American Rheumatism Association. The Reeves family resides in Faison.

I 1 THIS IS THE LAW UNORDERED MERCHANDISE Sometimes an unscrupu lous company will deliber ately send merchandise to a person who never ordered it and then demand that he pay for it. If such merchan dise is received, does the re cipient have to pay for it? And if he doesn't want it, must he hold it for the sender to pick up? The answer to both ques tions is no. If unordered goods are de livered to a person, he has a right to refuse to accept them. If he does accept them, he is under no obliga tion to return them to the sender. If such goods are addressed to and intended for the recipient, they are deemed to be a gift to the recipient and he may use them or dispose of them in any way he chooses Merchandising fraud can arise in many forms. But the law always seeks to pro vide a means to counter act it. Sponsored by The Lawyers of North I arolina. Inc. j Everything TV for y?ur floral \ needs This That &> the Other Kinston blvd.

The Duplin Rifles organized in 1859 as part of the first regiment of North Carolina troops in the Con federate Army. Historical . accounts pub lished in the September 1, 1950 issue of THE DUPLIN TIMES recall Duplin and Southern states' concern at ^ the time Abraham Lincoln was elected President of the United States. Shortly after his election the Southern states began to secede from the Union and when North Carolina pulled away, the Duplin Rifles formed from local volunteers. The Civil War began and by .1862 the town of New Bern had been captured by ^ Yankee troops and was used ? as a military headquarters. The Yankee troops were sent from New Bern throughout the eastern part of North Carolina to raid Confederate storehouses. One such raid was made in Duplin County on July 4, 1863, the day after the battle in Gettysburg which was the final con frontation begun by the armies of the North and ^ South. The raids were described in a news report dated July 8, 1863 and a federal account was made in military records. The news report goes as follows: "The Yankee cavalry at New Bern made a raid on Kenansville and Warsaw on last Satur day, burning the sword fac tory at the former place and ^ taking S25.000 from the pro prietors. They also captured Captain Lane's company of cavalry, only five of them escaping. At Warsaw they tore up the railroad tract for a quarter mile, cut the tele graph wires and burned 20,000 pounds of bacon. Groups of Yankee raiding parties have been operating in the vicinity of Trenton, ^ Kenansville and other towns in thai part of the State. These raids, extending over a period of several months, are rapidly devastating the section and there is dire want and distress among the people, having been forced to give up everything to the invaders. Our troops thus far have been unable to check these raids but more soldiers are being sent to the eastern part of the State in the endeavor to bring a halt to these depredations." The account made in Federal reports goes as fol lows: "The force left here (New Bern) on the morning of July 3, and reached Trenton that night: starting the next morning for Kenansville, via Comfort and Hallsville, driving in the enemy pickets, arriving at which place they surprised a company of cavalry there, capturing their arms and equipment, some horses and six prisoners. At this place (Kenansville) an armory was destroyed which contained some 2,500 sabers and large quantities of saber-bayonets, bowie knives and other small . arms, a steam engine and implements for manufactur ing arms. A store house full of implements and materials, a manufactory of knapsacks,' and some commissary store houses were burned. A large Confederate flag and some cavalry guidons were also found."
