Bertie Mourns Loss
Os Dr. L. B. Evans
With the passing of Dr. L. B.
Evans on Friday at Tayloe Hospital,
Washington, N. C-, Bertie County
lost a great and beloved man as well
as a physician. Coming from the
southern part of our State twenty
years ago and being a friend to all,
he answered calls day or night, to
the poor as well as to those able to
pay. It was he who made possible
the much-needed hospital rooms in
Windsor, and had his health permit
ted there would have been a real
hospital in the near future. It was
with bowed heads Saturday morning
that his many friends watched his
body borne from its home in a cas
ket banked with lovely flowers down
a path with flowers forming a wall.
The flowers were held by dear
friends. The body was carried to
the family plot in Fayetteville. Dr.
Evans leaves a lovely wife and three
little ones much loved by all, and to
whom is extended the sympathy of
a host of friends in their sad hour.
It is hoped that Mrs. Evans and her
children will continue to make their
home in the community.

Norbert Sawyer Knows
How Feels To Be KOed
Norbert Sawyer, fleet-footed deliv
ery boy for M. W. Jackson, can now
realize how a prize fighter feels
when he gets the count of 10.
On Monday morning while delivering
milk on East Church Street, Norbert
slipped on a porch and in an effort
to save the milk held up his hands
as he went down, striking his stom
ach on the steps. Plucky little fel
low as he is, he gathered himself
together and jumped onto the run
ning board of the milk truck, but
before going very far Mr. Jackson
missed his ace devilery boy and look
ing out the side of the truck spied
him lying on the street.
He possibly lost his grip as the
effect of the flal and when picked
up by Mr. Jackson, the boy said, “I
just had the wind knocked out of
me.” The little fellow recovered
shortly and continued with his work.

LINES
Thirty years ago, the tug J. W.
Branning, landed me at Willow
Branch Wharf on Chowan River at
daybreak.
The blushes of morning had ting’d
the blue sky.
As I gaz’d on the beautiful scene;
The wild bird was teaching its
nestling to fly,
Where the vista was lovely and
green.
On its bosom, the violet and king-cup
appeared,
And cowslips and primroses smiled;
And knots of dark blue-bells in
beauty were rear’d
And crimson tip’d daisies grew
wild.
The gold-blossom’d furze, the May
thorn in bloom,
The lark as it warbled its song:
The dark embower’d shades of im
pervious gloom,
And the Chowan as it glided along.
Were sweet to my view—e’en the
shadowy tree,
The rose just emerg’d from its bud;
The moss-cover’d bank that enclosed
the green lea
And the grass tufted hill where I
stood —
Were pleasing—and oft from the
cliffs rugged height,
Have I gazed on the scene when
alone;
Have I watched the dark Chowan as
it murmur’d in sight,
And fancied the prospect my own.
No more, through thy shades shall I
pensively stray.
While eve’ on thy blossoms shall
blow;
While night gives a charm to the
moon-beam that plays
Through the trees on the waters
below.
Farewell to thy beauties, thy blos
soms and bowers,
To a far foreign land I rove:
Still 'mid other scenes in my hap
piest hours,
I’ll think of thee, sweet Willow
Branch Grove.
