ofOregon, brings a feeling of pe
culiar aadoBis to the hearts ot
those who are in any wise aenti
mental. At the time of his clstb
he was still a member of the na

TbeKaleigh Times says, "There
is mnoh feeling at Lumberton over
the inexcusable aot of a sheriff's
deputy, who shot and killed a
negro prisoner while the latter
was trying to make good his ee

The Guilford battle ground is the
only battlefield of the Revolution
preserved iu its entirety, This has
been made possible by some of
Greensboro's patriotio citizjns.
The battle of Moore's Creek was
one of the first of the war. Both
battlefields ought to be preserved
and to be made Meccas for pa
