LEAVES l'ROFERTY TO CHILDREN I The will of the late S. C. Vann I which was probated this week is very short and simple, giving what was left of his estate to his three children and two additional acres of land ad joining Falrview Cemetery to the ceme tery. Mr. Vann several years ago had di vided his property among the mem. bers of his family, less the amounts that he expected to give to benevolent and charitable purposes. He lived long enough to carry out personally these purposes which in cluded $100,000 to the Methodist Or phanage In Raleigh, $20,000 to estab lish the Bettie Henley Vann Fund for the colleyiate education of yraduates of the Methodist Orphanage, $10,000 do Trinity College at Durham and $300,000 for the Franklin ton Public School. 1 IN WE.HORIl .* We are proud not to realize who walks in our midst until he has pass ed. Though that Is not the case with the life which has Just passed from us, for Corblt's friends knew that his friendship was to be valued. Corblt Cash was born In Granville county in the year 1901. He did not spend a long life In this world for the sunset of his life came In 1924, making him twenty three years old. From the pen of a friend I say that his life could eaally point one to our Master, who doeth all things well, and again his death caaaee me to have a closer relation wttk the crave and the victory which la sometimes wrought by death. One who knows him does not have to ask If he were a christian, tor he waa a devoted one. Hla church mem bership was with Flat Rock Baptist church In Franklin county. There la (lory la both llfa and death Ot a believer of Chrttt. May hla par sata, brothers aaff friends realise that. My trust now la tbat vtth CttbiVa Ufa aa ?
