of Mortimer Jirooks in
!iirccl at littsboro.
Kaleigh News-Obaerver.
At 9:40 yesterday morning the
special train for Pittsboro, having
i on it Mrs. Morliuier Brooks, wife of
I . . . .. ..

V " ' "

i?iiK, a maiu, a trained nurse and
Mi? Brook's body .servant, reached
lialteik Break las t for the party
wy &i?ut to train from the Yar
borougiVlipuse and here the party
was joined by Mr. C. II. Gattis,
traveling passenger agent of the Sea
board Air Line.
The special,. in charge of Engineer
M. V. Tighe, ol Kaleigh, and . Con
ductor liaddoek made a record
breaking run. Before it was turned
over to these gentlemen it had left
Jersey City at 11:30 on Fiiday night.
At ltichmoud about haii-past six
o'clock pesterday morning, the train
was turned over to the Seaboard and
was in charge of Superintendent C.
H. Hix, who accompanied the train
to Kaleigh, Eugineer Tighe1 making
the run with engine 631 in three
hours, or rather the 1G8 miles h 1G0
minutes, as stops were made,aud
twice the train slowed down to ten
miles an hour. There were
stops on the trip and at HendWson
coal and water was taken.
The average speed exceedeol 75
miles an iiour for the train, which
consisted of the engine, tender, couch
and Pullman. From Norlina to Ka
leigh the sixty miles were made in
sixty minutes with a stop, il'euder- j
son to Kaleigh, forty-four miles, was
made in forty minutes, while from
Frauklinton to Kaleigh, twenty-seven
miles; the time was nineteen min
utes. It was a race that in its speed
was as against the onward rush of
death feared at Pittsboro. and in
making this dash the Seaboard Air
Bine broke all records for fast time
in the South, being the first and
only train ever run special solid
from Jersey City as iar South as
Pittsboro.
Here the engines were changed at
Johnston Street Sation and Engineer
Muse, with engine 607 and with the
same conductor, Haddock, made the
balance of the trip. Others joining
the tiain here were Mr. C. H. Gat
tis, traveling passenger agent, and
Mr. G. A. Gore, trainmaster. The
run to Moncure, thirty-one miles,
was made in thirty-two minutes, in
cluding a delay of six minutes at
Merry Oaks, where a stop was made
fn passing the local en route to Ka
leigh, so as to carry back to Pitts
boro Drs. Hubert A. Koyster and
MacNider, who were returning irom
Pittsboro. The party reached Pitts
boro at 11 o'clock and conveyances
at once took them five miles in the
country to the home of Mr. C. T.
Bynum, where the injured man is
receiving attention.
The condition of Mr. Brooks is re
garded as favorable, but he cannot
be moved the five miles through the
county. For this reason the special
stands at Pittsboro, that in case of
death the body may be taken by
special to New York. The special
waits also the time when he may
be moved to New York City with
safety.
There was an incident here that
shows appreciation on the part of
Mr. Reginald Brooks, He was im-
pressed with the quick work done
over the Seaboard and handed $20
to Engineer Tighe, $10 to the fire
man and $5 to the porter.
The special train from Raleigh to
Pittsboro for Drs. Royster and Mac
Nider cost $112.50 and the special
fcom New York cost 1,253.80 besides
heavy cost for holding the train. The
return trip will cost the same.

His Fireman Instantly Kill
ed: IJeen In Continuous
Service of Company
Thirty-Five Years.
This community was startled and
painfully shocked shortly alter 10
o'clock Tuesday morning, as the news
was heralded from mouth to mouth
that the shoofly going south this
morning had been wrecked at War
saw and that engineer Guilford
Home, who ha been in the service
of the Atlantic Coast Line ever since
the war, and was greatly esteemed
in this city, where he at one time
lived when the transfers were made
here, years ago, had been instantly
killed, together with his colored fire
man.
It seems that as the train was ap
proaching Warsaw it ran into an
open switch,, which instantly over
turned the engine and entire train
and besides killing Mr. Home
and his fireman, badly shook up
and more or less injured a number
Hgllingbs-;
How the switch became open is
entirely unaccountable at this writ
ing, as it had not been in service, we
learn, for over six months, and
trains have been running over it
regularly everyday almost hourly.
So complete was the overturning
of the engine that Mr. Home was
pinioned beneath it, and his dead
body could not be rescued until the
arrival of the wrecking train, some
hours after the accident. -
Mr. Home has a son, William,
about 24 years of age, who has just
entered the service of the Coast Bine
as an engineer, and the too passed
each other on the line this morning,
the son going north with a freight
train, and it is said that he went
through here on the wrecking train
from Rocky Mount, which passed
here about 12 o'clock in charge of
engineer Marion Pe -cock, of this
eity.
The terrible accident has cast a
gloom over our community and all
along the line of the road between
Wilmington and Weldon, where the
dead engineer was highly esteemed.
His wife and several children survive
him, resident in Wilmington.

Elizabeth City, N. C, Dec. 12.
The seventy-fourth session of the
Baptist State Convention ndjourned
last night at nine o'clock, to meet
with the Baptist Tabernacle, Ra-
leigl , c,n Wednesday, alter the first
Suiictt. in December, 1905. The
session was harmonious and un
eventful, moving quietly on to the
end.
Elizabeth City added, if possible,
to her fame as host by her generous
and boundlebs hospitality. The mes
sengers and visitors take leave of
her to-da with nothing but praise
for her excellent people. Resolutions
expressive of the deep appreciation
of the royal kindness accorded to all
in attendance were unanimously
passed by the convention.
All the protestant pulpits of the
city were occupied yesterday at both
W "-T- UM"'. m.Hne dedicator.-. xer
of the Blackwell Memorial
! church took place, Dr. H,
W. Battle preached the sermon and
spoke for a collection to meet in
part the indebtedness of the church.
It was desired to raise a thousand
dollars. The giving was so liberal
that in a few minutes $1,635 had
been secured.
It was a great event in the life of
this excellent church led so hero
ically by Rev. W. A. Ayers, that
progressive pastor. This congrega
tion has the prettiest house in the
city and will douhtless have much
to do in shaping the religious life of
he place.
