Wade Wishart, Esq., of the Lum lerton "bar, writes as follows "to the Robe son! an of this week: The recent death of Mr. Nathaniel "Jacob!, of Wilmington, recalls an in cident in the life of that good man which should never be forgotten by the -people of Robeson county. Shortly after the close of the Civil war, in the days when the Freedman's Bureau flourished, a number of men from this county were carried to Wil mington to answer charges" peculiar to that, period before a United States commissioner. While there they were required to give bond for their appearance at a future time, and be ing unknown in that city, it looKea as if they would be locked up for want of a surety. Although they were strang ers to Mr. Jacobi, be knew the char acter of the charges against them, and he was one of the men who came forward and made their bonds, thus causing them to be spared the humil iation M going to jail. The names of the men are unknown to this writer, hut they were of oUr people, and this act of. Mr. Jacobi's should ever be held In grateful remembrance by the people of this county. Wade Wishart.

Contention of Attorney Who Applies George L.

Neal and ask for a habeas corpus for his client, whom it is alteged is wrongfully detained. The contentions of Mr. Peschau are that the warrant alleges a criminal violation whereas the 1907 law Is a civil provision; more- over that the question involved is ex post facto in that the defendant is charged under a law that was enacted two years and more after the alleged violation ws committed. Deputy Sher iff A. T.

The result of the case will be made known today. W. L. I. ELECTION. Vacancy Caused by Resignation of Lieutenant Thos. R. Orrell.

One reached Albemarle j Island aftet seven days of rowing and the ten men on board were eventually taken off by a schooner and brought into this port s on the 11th of June.
