OS ROOFMG Better Than Shingles THOUSANDS of people buy shingles for their roofs rather than face the prospect of painting a ready roofing every year or two. Shingles are expensive, but they are actually cheaper during ten years than a ready roofing which needs frequent painting to keep it free from leaks. Amartite roofing costs less than half as much as shingles and does not need painting either. It is easier to lay and will give years of long hard service without any care. Amatite has a real mineral sur face. That's why it needs no painting. One? laid on your roof your building has real protection. Amatite is easier to lay than ever this year. The liquid cement for the laps does not require heating before use. A three-inch smooth margin h left at the edge of the sheet so that the laps will be tight fitting and easily cemented. The large headed nails which we fur nish save fussing with caps, which rust easily. Amatite is up to date. Send for a Sample and look it over. You'll never buy any other. N. JACOB! HARDWARE COMPANY.

Ser- Robeson Your powerful aid dissipated the evil influences that came over your native land.

Ynn Hpnrprl vnnr (Delivered by Chief Justice Walter fi0U0 nf k.omKlflo ,V,;K M 5 m I the AW" Clark at Lumberton May 10.) Veterans and Comrades of Camp Hoke, Ladies and Gentlemen: When I received the summons of my old comrade of Camp Hoke, as a soldier I knew nothing else to do than to obey the call. Be sides, I was glad of an opportun ity to meet again the good people of our grand old county whom I met when here 21 years ago, this month, and of whom I have al ways borne the pleasantest recol lections. I have not been here since till now and I am gratified at your marvellous growth and development. You have the lar gest county in the State and I am sure that there is none better. It lacks but little of half a cen tury since North Carolina, resum ing her sovereignty, took her stand with her sister Southern States, beneath a new flag. Near ly lour decades and a half have passed since, wreathed about with laurel and cypress, that banner passed into the eternal silence where live forever the deathless dead. North Carolina sent forth more than 125,000 stalwart sons to make her declaration good. More than one-third 43,000 came not home again. Dead by the fire of battle, dead by wounds, dead by disease from exposure and hard ship, 43,000 of our best and brav est are sleeping their last sleep at Gettysburg, at Vicksburg, at Chickamauga, at Charleston, in the swamps of the Chickahommy, around Petersburg, in the Valley of Virginia and wherever in that ring of fire, that encircled the Confederacy, we faced the fear ful odds that slowly but steadily drove us inward. In the four decades and a half since, the re lentless years have driven great gaps in the ranks ol the survi vors. Another third, and aye, perhaps hall ol the remaining third have joined their comrades in the great bivouac ol the be yond. Of that mighty host of North Carolinians, 125, 000 strong, who may well be said to have carried on their bayonet points the fortunes of the Confederacy, as well as the fame and honor of North Carolina, less than twenty thousand are still with us The sufferings and hardships endured by our glorious women amid tne trials ol those arduous years are not less worthy of com memoration than those borne by our soldiers in the field. Though we have as yet raised no monu ment to them, it was the heroic women of the Confederacy who inspired our citizen soldiery by their faith in God.by their magic influence and their immeasurable good works. And we owe it to their fair daughters, whose un shaken fidelity has preserved the memory of our glorious dead, that the monument here and many another shaft has arisen to point out to posterity the pathway to fame that our lallen heroes trod It was the oath of duty and of honor. I am glad to be with you, Vet erans of North Carolina, and onee more look into the faces of some of the survivors of that splendid soldiery whose lame is now co extensive with the world itself, Half fed and poorly clothed, your arrav of tattered uniforms and bright muskets" taught the foe that courage and fidelity to duty were inDorn in tnis boutnern race. You often marched with bare leet and fought on hall ra tions, but you marched to eter nal fame and proved yourselves in battle worthy comrades of the Tenth Legion of Caesar and of the Old Guard of Napoleon. The annals of war. soldiers, do not show your superiors. Outnumbered, not outdone, you surrendered after four years of an unparalleled struggle and your drums last beat is rolling in eternity. But your past, at least, is secure. So much endurance, so much valor, were not in vain Their memory is a rich legacy for your children s children, and the whole race wears the honor you'.have conferred, upon it. In the long centuries that are to come, legend and song in this fair Southland will keep bright the story of the Confederate soldier. His momory will sparkle in the fountain, the mountain peaks will recall remembrance of his marches "The meanest rill, the mightiest river ' 'Rolls mingling with his fame forever. ' ' Posterity will recall, too, the simple faith, and courage with which you turned your laces homeward, and there picking up the web of life where the sword had cut it, you began again where you left it four years before. grown up and your government of the bad men that had climbed to power. At your bidding pros perity again started the hum of its wheels and honor and integri ty became again the attendants of your public service. You did all this and more that will stand to your everlasting honor. In the strenuous strug gle of 1861-5 you were faithful to the highest type of the soldier and in the years following you were equal to the highest duties of the citizen. The grand old county of Robe son sent to the front 9 full com panies and parts of 12 other com panies altogether some 2,000 splendid soldiers and more men than you had voters in 1861. As the request is to address the veterans of Camp Hoke, it has occurred to me that it will be appropriate to talk to you some what about the services ol the Robeson county companies where your soldiers went and what they did. Though it will be a bare and hasty recital, it will aid to revive and freshen the memory of the survivors and will impart to the rising generation a fuller knowledge, perhaps, of the glorious record Robeson county made in those four eventful years, the memory of which will never be forgotten. The first company you sent out was Co.D., 18th N.C.Regiment, commanded by Capt. (later Ma jor) W. S. Norment. This regi ment, including Co. D., was stationed below Wilmington till November 1861, when it was or dered to Charleston and spent the winter at Pocataligo, midway between Charleston and Savan nah. In March, 1862, the regi ment was ordered back to North Carolina. In May it was assign ed to Branch's Brigade and was sent to Virginia. The Brigade was in the battle of Hanover Court House, 27 May 1862, where it lost heavily some companies as much as 50 per cent The 18th N. C, of which Co. D. was a part, was in the Seven Days fights in front of Richmond just a month later. The Brigade had become a part of Hill's Light Division in Stonewall Jackson s Corps and on August 10 was in the battle ol" Cedar Mountain, then in the march, against Pope, was engaged at 2nd Manassas 30 August then followed the enemy across the Potomac, then sudden- y recrossing the river, aided in the investment and capture of Harper's Ferry with 12,000 pri soners on 15th September. On 17 September came the bloody battle of Sharpsburg (or Antie- tam, as the enemy call it). Gen. Lee fought that battle with the Potomac river at his back and with less than one third as many men as McClellan had opposing him. At 4 p. m.the battle seem ed lost, and the enemy advancing through the gaps made in our de cimated lines were in full march for the fords in our rear to cut us off when A. P. Hill's Light Division, which had been left at Harper's Ferry, having recrossed the Potomac to the Maryland side suddenly appeared on the scene They met the advancing lines of the enemy, struck them like the wrath of God. and drove them broken and disordered back across the Antietam. While life lasts, I will hear no tones more eloquent than the steady roll of musketry which told our Army that Hill had come up" and that" we were saved. The cheering beginning on our right rolled down our lines and was only exceeded by that steady roll of musketry as Hill's Division pressed back Burnsides' Corps. The American soldier is intelligent, and when thetremen dous crash of Hill's musketry rolled down the heavy air of that summer s eve. both sides knew that there was the decision of the battle and without orders down those long opposing lines of more than two miles the men facing each other ceased firing, even the artillery became silent, When the sound of the heavy musketry moved unmistakeably though slowly eastward, down the Confederate lines there pass ed from mouth to mouth, almost as quick as a wireless message now, "we are driving them" ;and then the cheer on cheer rolled along our lines. Tne enemy un derstood, too, and sullenly, with a few spiteful shots, they with drew their lines and the day was saved. Hill's Division had marched rapidly that hot summer's day, 16 miles from Harper's Ferry and forded the Potomac. Had Burn sides moved ten minutes earlier or Hill been ten minutes later we would have been cut t 'Tfrom the fords and the capture of that Army with Lee, Jackson and Longstreet would doubtless have ended the war and Sharpsburg would have taken its place in the history of our race with the bat tles of Hastings and Flodden Field those great days which chang ed the course of History. In the gallant Light Division which thus saved the day and the Confederacy at Sharpsburg, were two North Carolina Brig ades Pender and Branch. In the latter was Co. D., of the 18th regiment, from Robeson county. They thus helped to save the Confederacy. Their general of Brigade, L. O'B. Branch, was killed there and the brigade was commanded the rest of the war by Gen. James H. Lane, except lor a short while when Gen. J no. D. Barry, of Wilmington, com manded it. We fell back across the river the night of the 18th and on the 20th the enemy attempted to fol low when they were charged by Hill's Light Division and driven into the Potomac at Shepherds town. The 18th Regiment, in cluding Co. D., charging to the bluff, shot those who attempted to cross and captured numbers who had huddled under the bluff for safety. On 13th December 1862 the 18th was at Fredericksburg and aided to drive Burnsides, who had succeeded to the command of the Federal Army, in headlong and disastrous retreat across the Rappahannock. In May 1863, the 18th N. C. was in the Chancellorsville cam paign where Stonewall Jackson was mortally wounded and whose i .ii. j .i aeatn 40 years ago toaay so lm- presseaiNortn uaronna that we have adopted that anniversary (10 May) to be observed in honor of all the Confederate Dead. Gen. Jackson had gone out in front of our lines with a numer ous staff and, returning without giving notice, his retinue was mistaken forthe enemy's cavalry. The Eighteenth fired a terrific volley, several of their bullets struck Gen. Jackson, who thus died before the war was more than half over and by the bullets of his own men, who would glad ly have died to save him. His death was the heaviest blow which befell the Confederacy. His fall saved the Union Army, who were cut off from the fords andv,rith'one hour more of Jack son" must have surrendered. The The 18th N. C. was at the post of duty when the thin lines of Lee were broken on 2 April lS(Jr. They were in the daily buttles on the retreat to Appomattox which has been aptly called the "funer al march of the Confederacy." When the surrender came, that roll call of fame, the Appomattox Parole list shows that tliere wa left of Co. D. fi "om Robeson onlv Orderly Sergeant A. E. Floyd. Corporal J.P.Inman.and Privates A. N. Prophet, K. Lovett, A. J. Thompson, and Zach.Clewis. All the rest had been killed, wounded or captured. After the battle and exposures through which this company had passed during four years, the wonder is not that so few, but that any were left. The next Company the county sent out was Co. G., 24th Regi ment, commanded by Capt.Thad deus D. Love and a part of Co.F. in the same regiment. This last was a Cumberland county com pany but had many members from over the line in Robeson. This regiment spent the summer and fall of 1861 in the Kanawha valley and other points in West Virginia under the of Robert E. Lee, then a Brigadier General. The regi ment wintered at Petersburg and in the spring of 1862 it was on the Meherrin at Murfreesboro, N. C. The 24th N. C. was then plac ed in the brigade of Gen. Robert Ransom and took part in the fa mous 7 days fight in front of Richmond, suffering heavily, es pecially at Malvern Hill 1 July.

The next month, June 1863, saw the 18th N.C. with our Robe son county company in full march cor the Potomac again. Though the Brigade had lost 800 killed and wounded at Chancellorsville in little over thirty days it was hunting the enemy on his own ground. They crossed at Shep erdstown, marched through their old battle ground of Sharpsburg and m the first three days of July were engaged in the great battle of Gettysburg. On the 3rd day their brigade was in the world famous charge of Longstreet and went further than any of Pick ettt's men in that charge, and re giment for regiment, by the offici al reports, had twice as many kill ed and wounded. The 18th N. O was the last regiment to recross the Potomac on retreat. The 18th N. C.was in the Mine Run campaign, which was the coldest weather during the war. When Grant crossed the Rapi- dan 4 May 1864, the 18th N. C with our brave Robeson county company, was in the first column that he struck. The bloody fights in the Wilderness and around Spottsylvania followed and the 18th was engaged with the ene my almost daily for bO days while Grant was swinging round the circle" (as he called it) from the Rapidan down to the James.JJur me that time.
