Graham 50 Year* Ago.
A letter from Dr. James A. Al
bright of Somerville, Tenu., ex
presses appreciatioD of our "60
Years Ago" sketches.
He recslls the burning? of the
Capt. Graham home. He says
that people returning from Sun
day services at Providence church
and the Presbyterian church
about 12:30 discovered the fire
and that a great crowd gathered,
and that he was present. That
Capt. Graham was very much ex
cited, while Mrs. Graham was as
"cool and calm as it was possible
to be." That a few weeks later
at the close of the Graham School
(conducted by Drs. W. S. and D.
A. Long) one of the students,
Rev. Peter T. Klapp, in his essay
at commencement on "Womau",
referred to Mrs. Graham's com
posure on the occasion of the
burning of her home and quoted
a stanza of a poem that euds with
this couplet?
"When pain and anguish rend
the brow,
A ministering angel art thou."
Dr. Jim puts the fire on a Sun
day, while Edgar Long's tradition
puts it on the 23rd of March,
1875. March 23rd, 1875, was
Tuesday according to the World
Alamanac. We are not able to
reconcile th's discrepancy just,
now, as the bound volumes of
The Gleaner or that time are
not available as we write this. We
believe we can iron this out later.
Dr. Jim Albright, who migrated
to Tenn. near 60 years ago, was
living in Graham when the writer
droppod anchor here.
Besides the things which have
come to us through the mails
about these sketches, many have
spoken to us personally about
them, all of which is appreciated
and helpful, as it is desired to
make a correct narrative.
Last week we closed on reach
ing the estate of Cap. E. S.
Parker.
During the years 1878-'9he pur
chased about 40 acres of land
lying on the East side of the road
(now N. Main St..) leading from
the courthouse to Graham station,
between Bill Wilson's place on
the South and Providence church
property on the North.
About half of it, on the South,
was partly in and partly outside
the corporate limits of Graham.
The other portion, on the North,
was outside the corporate limits.
A small area, about half An acre,
on the East side was purchased
from John W. Fianigan and wife.
The Southern portion was a
part of the Joe B. McMuray es
state. The McMurrays lived here
when the town was young.
The Northern portion was pur
chased from William Clendeniu
and his wife. "Aunt Jenny."
These were quaiut old people at
that time and had some queer
ways, some of which are tradition
al. They lived just across the
road in a little cottage.
Fifty years ago thero were no
buildings on the property except
those built by Capt. Parker. In
1879 be built a residence and
some outhouses on the most ele
vated location on the boundary,
which was around 80 feet to the
East of the home of Louis C.
Allen.
lhere was a remnant of ao old
apple orchard about where the
reeideucee of Col. Don E. Scott
and Seymour Hull now aland.
The CleudouiuB had the use of
tliia .-Id orchard for many years,
and, though they had parted with
the title to the land, they had a
certain nfhoity for the orchard,
and aa long aa there was any of
the orchard to bear Irom year to
year and the old people lived in
their cottage nearby, they availed
tlieinaelvea of the use of the fruit
without moleatation.
During the year '79 Capt. Par
ker built hia -new home on the
tract, and juat before Christinas
of that year moved in with his
family.
Capt. Parker was reared on a
farm in Harnett County (we be
lieve this is correct), and at last,
I ui a way he had returned to his
lirat love.
When he cauie into possession
of the place there were roads and
paths across it in tnaur directions
as it suited the whiins of folks
i getting from one place to another
; by the shortest route.
More about this purchase in
our next.

A THOUGHT for SUNDAY
By
Amos R. Wells
SILENCERS
for Airplanes.
Goof' n**ws comes from Hiram
Maxim's factory in Hartford,
which, since Mr. Maxim's remark
able invention, has been making
silencers for firearms. When one
of these silencers is added to a
pistol, the noise of its explosion
is only a mild putt, beard bnt a
few feet away. The invention is,
of course, most useful in war,
rendering it very difficult to
locate eueiuy batteries; also a
man uiHy be shot, and people in
full sight of the crime may hear
no sound of the firing.
This fact has determined Mr.
Maxim to discontinue the manu
facture of silencers, but he will
turn his attention to silencing
airplane eugiues. His work will
restore peace to the skies. Th is
use of the invention is a real
benefit, while the initial applica
tion of it was a curse.
How quick is theilevil to utilize
every means for evil, and how
slow are the righteous in doing
the saute! Let us become more
enterprisiug in all good. Let us
apply to Christ's work every im
provement devised by skill and
wisdom. Let us not allow Satan
to outspeed Christianity.
"A time to keep silent, and a
lime to speak." Read Ecclesiastes
3 : 1-8.
