In fact we do not. believe a more
honest .and honorable man ever
lived in North Carolina. When
in Congress it w"os this writer who
bestowed upon him the sobriquet
of 4Honest Joe. We caught the
word from the name given to Sen-
tor John Davis, -of Massachusetts,'
when we were a lad. Our Davis
deserved the title as much "as tbe
mau from Massachusetts deserved
it... -r.--.- -
Not being of the law we give no
opinion of Justice Davis's opin
ions while -on the "Bench. He
delivered "honeat judgments we
know.-
no was married twice, his,, sec
ond wife being Miss'Louisa ; Kit
trell, of Oxford, who aurvivea him.
She ia a sister of Mrs. Gilliam, rcl-
ictbf the late admiral Jude Rob
ert B. Gilliam, of r Oxford. The
last time we gra.ped his hand and
bade him' good byo waa in onrown
home after spending an evening
with us, for he was the best man,
at the marriage of Mwifo and" I.
We saw no decay no sign that-in
two yeais.he would pass and never
more should we greet each other
in this world, lie talked much
that nightTlo be ever, remembered
by -us of the condition of our coun-
try;' and feared coming evil.- His
waa a lofty soul, and he was every
inch a patriot and a. man. We
have had. to writewith exceeding
hnrryjand'nnder ,heavy. pressure
of other duties , of the -.office, and
not as we would like "to write of
oue'r of . the -truest, eafest, .most
devoted friend we have had in a
long life-'We shall cherish his
memory. May. God "bless the be
reaved ones hia wife, and chil

' .Tho Oxford Ledger pys:
When a man's life has. been' auch
that he has received apd deserved
the prefix of honest to his - name,
hia death calls for more than a
"passing notice.'
Such an one has Jutt paseed
sembling that of Colonel Walter L.
Steele and General. Scales, both
of whom were his devotedfriendj.
When the greatest speakers of
he- Republican party in the raet-
ropolltian district opposed tira on
he stump, his friends feare d that
he coald not meet their wit and
jest; but when he stood up before
the inimitable Ike . Young and
poured Into the Republican party
the withering sarcasm born of hon
est contempt -of . their methods,
Isaac's jests and gibes and qulbs
went for naught, aud the people
whooped and voted for Honest Joe
Davis.' "
When Judge Ashe died,. Gran
ville Saperier court was io session,
and our bar thought Capt. Davis
should succeed him. A apoutane-
o;is effort was made in his' behalf.
and Gov.. Scales wisely appointed
CapC Davia to our Supreme bench.
On this exalted plain ho .so con
ducted himself as to ,gtva . great
satisfaction to his friends and to
uphold the etandard of rarity of
the bench , "
Bntwit!i th.e things ho waa
cot engrossed withal.- It was his
home and his family and hit town
and his poor neighbors and, the
canse of Christ that most engaged
his time and hls sympathy. , Ha
knew not lh love nor valaa of
