RODANTHE.
Kodanthe, N. C, April 30.
Correspondence of the' Tar Heel.
Dear Sir: -I am well, pleased
with your paper and am glad to
get every issue for it gives all the
home news. . If you have never
visited Kodanthe I will try to give
you some information of it. It is
a narrow neck of land half mile
wide,sbound on the east by the
Atlantic Ocean, on the west bv
Pamplico sound. The length from
New Inlet to Hatteras is forty miles
so you see that - we are . shut "out
from, the. outside world only by
water and there is little transpor
tation, only sail boats. The people!
here are mostly fishermen and they j
often charter, sailboats from $3 "to
$5 ie'r day .or sell their fish,' oyster
arid clams at - very ': lo wr prices, so
you see that wo need a steam' boat
lirie to run alonjr these banks from
Rodantha to Hatteras so that the
fishermen could ship their own fish,
oysters, clams, fowls and produce.-
We should have at least three mails
a "week 'but wo think that we aro
doing well to get two. We should
have daily mails. The are .8 Life
Saving Stations and G post offices,
so you see that there is lots of
official maiL"
The need - for better mails im
proved transportation- facilities is
apparent .We long , for the ac
quisition of both. ,

the People or Gates County,-
It is well known that, T hnvft fio.
quently stated during the past six
lnonths, that I would not be a can
didate this year for re-election to
the office I am now holding, if my
candidacy would come in the way!-
of any one else , who might be the
choice of the people, ior would in
anywise be inconsistent with party
harmony. My .object has been,
and is now, to ask in. , ;v manner
that will promote the interest and
welfare of the Democratic party.
It appears to : me that ttid, ap
proaching campaign will be one, in
which individual drsire should be
j sacrificed, for party success. -There
has never beeii r time when , Deni
ocratic; unity was more essential.
Lt every man subordinate his de
sirea and ambition to party fealty
and success awaits us. 5
At the, solicitation of my; many
friends, and yielding to what
seems to be a popular demand. I
how declare myself -a candidate be
fore the Democratic: conventipn of
Gates county for the office of Reg
ister of Deeds. My record as a
piablicofficial in Gates county is
well known, and should the duties
of the office again devolve upon
me, it will, be my. earnest endeavor
to render such service as f' will be
acceptable to my people, i
Respectfully, -

the passenger boat Huron, Mr.
Poyner worked very faithfully re
moving the bodies of the drowned
and he provided a home for several
of the officers. For these acts of
kiudness the government awarded
him a .very handsome gun, worth a
hundred dollars. It is still in his
possession and is kept as a sacred
relic. It will, no doubt, je hand
ed down from generation to gen
eration. On January 31, 187$ the Metro
