Last week's High Point Enterprise tails a most remarkable and Interesting story concerning the heirs of the late A. T. Stewart, the merchant prince of Ifew York. It seems that many years ago there lived In Randolph county four brothers by the name or Ldwaras who married four sisters, Hamlltons also of Randolph. All of them went Into5 business in New York moving there and were very successful. Only one child was born into the household a daughter. The property of all four brothers went to this girl at tnel death. This same girl is said to have become the wife of A. T. Stewart, the merchant king. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart were childless, all the property falling to the wife at Stewart's death. Mrs. Stewart died last winter and the heirs were adver Used for. It is now claimed that the lawful heirs ll7e in Randolph county two or three of them; one man by the name of Brewer and another named Harris, who are closely related to the original families that went to New York years ago. The matter was brought to the at tention of the heirs through a mer chant at Jackson Hill, N. C, who was In New York buying goods. He saw the advertisement for the heirs and knew them. He secured a lawyer, looked into the matter and came home and revealed it to the heirs. They have employed three other attorneys. The parties interested, say that their law yers have reported $11,000,000 already U band and that the entire estate is worth $64,000,000. The Enterprise is Informed that one of the heirs lives at Cedar Falls, another at New Salem and a third at or near Randleman. The Patriot hopes there is founda tion for the story and that these Ran dolph people may come into possession of the millions left by Mrs. Stewart. Governor Russell has pardoned Ed. pand Arthur Orrell, who were sent to the county roads a few weeks ago to serve out a sentence of twelve months for breaking into a house. They were convicted at the last December term of court, along with Charles Roberson, who has also been pardoned. An ap peal was taken to the Supreme court, where the verdict of the lower court was confirmed. Pending the hearing of the appeal the Orrell boys departed for parts unknown, returning a few weeks ago, when tbey were arrested and sent out to the convict camp. We do not doubt that the granting of par dens is just and proper in some in stances, but we are of the opinion that the prerogative Is often abused. If the lick Is to be kept up the taxpayers will begin to wonder why the necessity ex ists of putting the county to the heavy expense of detecting and convicting criminals if they are to belmmediately pardoned upon petition of interested friends and relatives.' When persons are guilty of some grave offence, and the evidence of guilt is conclusive, we are unable to see any reason for grant ing a pardon. Such action does not further the ends of justice. Mr. Nv A. Page died at his borne, a short distance west of the . Battle Ground, last Wednesday and was buried at Guilford College the day following. 'Rev. A. G. Kirkman con ducted the funeral services. The de ceased was fifty-one years old and leaves a wife and several children. He had been in declining health for sev eral months. Mr. Page was a good citizen and will be missed in the com munity. About eight years . ago he made a profession of religion and con nected himself with the Methodist church at Morehead's Chapel. He was an active worker and an official mem ber of the church, having served as steward, trustee and Sunday school superintendent. He was prepared for death and his end was peace.
