?/\ # ^ A WAHUJbKEh S RETURN TO HIS MOTHERS GRAVE How An Article on Mother By "W. 0.n Touched The Heart j of a Hardened Prodigal \ strange middle aged man; got off the train at Hertford: the other day. TTc looked w t- r fully at old familiar landmarks that were there a quarter of a centitrv ago. furtively scanned g the faces of those around the n railroad station and did not go J uptown with the crowds. Instead of takinc a lnis to the j In.'i ? or walking up Main St.. ho j writ np n hack street of the ' until he en me to the old cemetery, j j Entering the cemetery he went , straight to a lone noelcrfed crave. , Only a few eolored people saw him , enter the eemerery and they paid) liut little attention to him. h At the neeleetcd crave the middle', need stranger paused and removed . his hat. fie studied the anieent , cedars. lo??ked for the mock-eranco . tree over in a far corner of the: crave yard, noted the scores of new | graves that had heen marie and the . new tombstone erected in recent . years. And then, sure that he was J ( o tone anil tinol.serverl, he fell upon J | Lis knees there beside that liecleet- j, ed crave and sobbed like a heart-1 broken child. Ife ninst have spent . an honr there before he recained ; his composure, left the cemetery.'. ?walked about the town for a little while, then Iraek to the depot. tak-g jnc a Northbound train at..| i.v ? JTertforrI perhaps net again. No one in Hertford . ?'; drama that had been etc.. there ij that day. Almnt 2.1 years nco a I?.y ., left Hertford nnrler a cloud. Hej'i had been caller! a hatl hoy all bis life. He felt that the hand of every man an?I woman was acainst hint. j, Ber.plp referred to him scornfully as "Old nifei So and So's Itoy." in a ' ?way tout inferred Old Man So and So wasn't much to begin with anilj one couldn't e\*i>eet anythinc of hits. hoy. ! I The hoy left home under a ciouu , < when just an overgrown hoy nor j quite grown to manhood. lie has since led a checkered eareivr that took him to all parts of the world. Ills career has l>oon one of crime in every part of the world in which he has heen. lie has seen the inside of. prisons in many lands and been i hunted by the slueths of several eon- |i tineuts. lie has not l**m in America j for years Until the other day hej landed on his native shores under I uu assumed name. "In Norfolk. A a.. he picked up a copy of the July issue of the American Magazine. i in the American Magazine he; read an article hy W. O. Saunders, futitled "I Interview My Mother". In that article Mr. Saunders touch ed the heart of the wanderer and | turned his thoughts hack to liis own dear mother who died when he was a little boy and loft him without: that gui'lhnce that might have made a ditTereut man of him. The wand erer read Mr. Saunders' article in The American, bought a ticket for Hertford and never stopped until he knelt at the grave of his mother j and hogged her forgiveness for his ; sins, knowing that if from some other world her spirit looked down upon him and heard him there, that she would smile thru tears of love and compassion and forgive and un derstand?because fhe* Was.' htf? rather.. . * . . The- wffndiWer did nof' reveal his identity to any one In Hertford. He recognized Tmlor Winslow. 4'hnrlie Morgan, Louis Norman, t'harlie W'illiford, Ford Snniner and ! several others who haven't changed 1 much outwardly in a quarter of a ! century. Hut he did not speak to them. He wrote a letter to IV. O. Saunders telling him about about it. The letter was signed "I'hiiip Nolan." a fictitious name which he! said: "Is a pretty good name for' lae as I am a man without a conn-j try." And so the wanderer pr>--r?s ! on, again losing himself in the v;ist ! outside world.

White, who died ?it her home in Hertford early I Monday morning. left nil estate of nltonr $100,000. $50,000 of which i< in valuable Hertford real estate: the balance in stock, bonds and other securities. The bulk of this estate sees to three lieiccs. Mrs. W. (). Speight. of Fdeiiion: Mrs. Cicero Xorinan. of1 Plymouth and Mrs. I.loyd Tnrnage. ! of Aytien. She liequcnthed $10 000 io the Methodist Church: there was a bequest of $100 for a colored Moth- , adisr church and $."V> for an old ' colored servant.

So ;roos the remainder of what was onee considered a areat for-, tune accumulated by the industry.! thrift and ingenuity of one of the* nosf picturesque individuals in Per [iiinians County. Mrs. White was 7-1 years old. She was a native of Chowan County, of i very poor family. When just a rirl of 1." or 10 stunmers she mar-1 ried Matthew If. White, also of a , ry poor and unpromising family. Mnt White was lia/idicapiied by j ;oth poverty and illiteracy. Hut lie i\as industrious, ambitious, thrifty! ind shrewd. lie eoubln't keep ac-1 ?omits with pencil and paper, but ! lie bad a small, compact head that retained everything. He dug ditches, out and sold i wood, made shingles by hand, work-! Ing 1-1 to 10 hours a day t? > make | m honest penny. With hi> first savings he bought an ox to liaul 1 t- wood, traded the ox for a horse. :. I the horse 'for a lietter horse. IV became the.greatest horse trader in two counties ami from trading hi.pscs became a breeder of horses and the ? wner of a notable siring >f racing steeds that took big pur>i - in nian.y'states. lie was a born merchant. When rery young he would buy and butch er <<!ittle to sell at retail in llert fotal: but' herKi'g' a steer Friday I fviglit he would haul it t<> Hertford' before Saturday daybreak and ->!i ; it in chunks to tile townspeople in I time for breakfast. He finally bo- ) came the owner of the biggest nier- ; rantile business in Hertford and j the owner of many farms a< well, j He built what was in its day tlie j most preienrinrs home in Hertford. When he died in 101" he left an estate valmd at more than a quart re million. Mat White loved the fieshpofs and lived sumptuously when lie had icquired the means. He dr? ^s( d like a prosperous turfman, wore big din- j niomls. flashed a big batik roll i everywhere, and away from home . he was a lively spender ami a fami liar figure in the best dining places , in Norfolk. Uicl^iuond( I'.uli iucre | and Washington. l'nt the poor country girl who j had married the poor country lmy 1 never could kee p up with her 1ms ! and. Money didn't have the same menning for her that it had for him. , She loved money because of the pc.or and prestige and security it conveyed. Secretly she worshipped - It and held 0:1 to it. If her auto-1 mobile needed a change of cylinder oil. she would tell the dealer to put in a <|isart. She died Monday niorniiitr at the age of 73 years with out ever having known how lntieh fun a lone woman with not many years left to live enn get out of | life with a fortune of more than j $100,000.
