Two Strange Stories.
Winston, N. C, Nov. 14. Some
thing not only strange, but remark
able, comes here from Yadkin coun
ty. An old clock, owned by a far
mer named Peter Shermer, was years
ago set aside as a worthless piece of
property. It has not been known to
run or.t strike until quite recendy,
when, to the very great surprise of
the family, it struck twice, and in just
two weeks from that day a member
of the family died. A few months
later it struck twice again, and in two
weeks another member of the family
died. .Shortly -afterwards it struck
twice again, and in two weeks the
third member of the family passed
away.
Not only the remaining members
of the family, but the 'neighborhood
are alarmed over the singulai'occur-
rence, and cannot solve the mystery,
unless it be a token of Providence.
The story is told by one of Yankin's

truthfulness. Concord Times.
