Dear Robesonian: After a long silence, I. beg leave to re open correspondence Since I was in Lumberton and in your well-furnished office, a little more than a year ago, many changes have taken place, some of the saddest kind. Rufus Freeman, a dear friend of my boyhood, and Berry Godwin.with whom I spent many pleasant days, both of whom I had the pleasure of meeting last year, have crossed over the river and, I trust, are. resting beneath the shadow of the trees celestial One by one, we pass away; but the good "shall live forever." It is a source of great pleasure to the Christian to feel assured that he will meet his friends in the great hereafter. I shall never forget the cour tesies and kindnesses shown me by Messrs. E. B. Freeman, Piof. Peterson, The Robesonian folk and many others. At Red Springs, I met many old friends and made quite a number of new Ones. I found Hamilton McMillan, a delightful companion, and his' family, like himself, intelligent, entertaining and hospitable. A noble wifp and mother has been transferred to a higher clime from that home since my visit to the good land of my boyhood days- My reticence is the result, in a great" degree, of the infirmities of age. I spent the six months, beginning Mch.l2th.,as local edi tor of a papetfin New Decatu r.This time was completely occupied. Taking a severe cold, followed by a protracted attack of bron chitis, I resigned and requested my employer to supply the va cancy, which he reluctantly did Some of my friends have been receiving tne Morgan uounty Times in lieu of private letters I have more leisure now and in vite correspondence. Our crQps are cut off about 33 1-3 per cent., and perhaps it is well; tor it is impossible to hire the help necessary to gather them. My brother, Rev. John S Davis, reached his 79th birthday Nov. 4. He is strong, fleshy and somewhat active for one of his age. My brother, Caft. F. M. Davis, in his 77th year, has suffered a great misfortune. About three weeks ago, wnile returning to the home of his daughter, Mrs. M. B. Kim bell, a block away be was taken with vertigo, and finding that he was falling for ward, he ran, hoping to catch up, and to prevent falling, caught a barbed wire of a fence near the side walk, which he turned loose, but the effort to prevent the fall threw him with great force upon his sfde, crushing the femur just below the hip joint. Having heart trouble, he could not take chlo roform, and the limb could not be set. Hence he is suffering most intensely, and his physician thinks that he can not live long. I never saw such suffering as he endures. He is kept under the influence of morphine most of the time. Three of his children who had been in Mexico City for some years; the two daughters, teachers in the Methodist Mis sion College, his son, a type writer, stenographer, etc., for a railroad company, are with him much to his comfort. Hi3 daugh ter, Mrs. Kimbell, has a broken arm, wmcn is most uniortunate. A. L. Davis. Later: Today, Nov. 12th Capt. M. Davis, my injured brother, is much worse- It is not thought that he can survive more than two days. Trinity, Ala., Nov. 10th. AFTER THE NEW COLLEGE.
