A Remarkable Coincidence.
Several years ago six young men
composed the graduating class at
Wake Forest College. The first
child of each one of these classmates
was a girl, and all died of membra
nous croup when six months old.
Good Cotton.
The most prolific stalk of cotton
that we haye seen this year was sent
us last week by Mr. Augustus Alston,
of Hickory Mountain township. With
a few acres of such cotton a man
might laugh at hard times.
Apportionment of School Fund.
The State Board of Education has
apportioned the public school fund
among the several counties, by which
apportionment the sum of 1,933.25
is Chatham's share. The number of
children in this county between the
school ages is
7,738.
Pay of Prayer.
Last Tuesday was observed in
many places as a day of fasting and
prayer for the recovery of the Presi
dent. The churches were opened and
business suspended. The day was
suggested by the Governor of Perm
sylvania, but the notice was so short
it was not generally known. At
llaleigli, Wilmington and a few other
places in fins State, the notice was
received in time and the day duly
observed.
Circus and Drought.
In view of the unprecedented
drought that now afflicts our people
and the fears of a famine, it would
seem natural that everybody would
spend money only for the necessaries
of life, and yet thousands of dollars
will be squandered on circuses. Hun
dreds of people from this county,
who will probably suffer during this
winter, will attend the circus to-morrow
at Raleigh or on Saturday at
Sanford. Well, such is life, to-day
we dance, to-morrow we die !
The Drought.
The drought still continues. If,
weeks ago, we thought it was so very
dry, what shall we say now ? It is
not only dry but it has been oppres
sively, hot for the past week even
the nights being hot, whereas last
month the nights were quite pleasant.
No amount of rain could now save
our crops they are parched op but
would be a blessing to man and beast
by furnishing drinking water. Yes,
it has become a very serious matter
to get water enough to drink. The
people of Chatham will have cause to
long remember the drought of this
year. It is beyond all doubt the
B-ycrest that has ever been known in
this county.
A Double Runaway.
A "runaway" couple met with a
runaway accident in this county last
week. A certain young lady's father
objected to her marrying her lover,and
so they determined to run away, and
it turned out to be a double runaway,
for after they had successfully eluded
the old gentleman and were riding in
a buggy to the preachers house the
horse took a notion that he too would
runaway: so off he started, broke the
buggy all to pieces, threw out the
happy couple, and came near making
a tragic end of their trip. Fortu
nately the lady was not injured at all,
and though the young man was bad
ly bruised, they went on and were mar
ried We would call that a double
runaway.

Soldiers' Reunion.
We have been requested to publish
the following correspondence relative
to holding a reunion of the old sol
diers of Company "G" 26th Regt.
It would doubtless be a most inter
esting occasion both sad and
pleasant for the surviving members
of that gallant old company to once
more meet together. The writer of
the first of the following letters was
a Lieutenant in the company, and
the writer of the second was the Cap
tain, and afterwards became Colonel
of the regiment :
Marley'b Mill, N. C. Aug. 24, '81.
Col. J. R. Lane, Dear Sir: On the 10th
day of June last, as I was pursuing my
usual vocation, I was reminded tbat that
was the twentieth annivereary of a very
interesting: and important event to a por
tion of- the young men of Chatham and
also of Randolph. My mind was carried
away hack yonder to the 10th day of June.
1661, when there was an assemblage of
persons of all ages and both sexes on the
beaut if al grass-plot in Capt. Matthews'
yard at Matthew s' Cross Roads.
Conspicuous in that group were about
one hundred young men, who had met
there on that day lor the purpose of or
ganizing themselves into a company ioi
the Confederate service, which they did.
and styled themselves "Chatham Boys,"
afterwards Company " G.' 26th Reg. N. C.
T., ex-Governor now Senator Vance's Regi
ment. After thinking of the many hopes
and fears, disappointments, bereavements,
&c, and the many, many changes that we
have all experienced since that time, these
reflections took on a practical form which
wish to send to voa.
I suggest that at some time during the
pleasant part of this year, at as leisure a
time as can be selected, tbat the survivors
of Company 'G." meet at Capt. Matthews'
and appoint committees on various o meets.
let every member of the company be on
some committee, these committees to re
port on the 10th day of June next at tbat
place.
I will name some of the objects, which
you will please revise : One committee to
ascertain how manv of Company " fell
in battle, also by disease, and their names:
committee on the number living and their
names: committee to get up the number of
messes in the company, and who composed
each mess (they were numbered you re
member 1. 2. 3. &c.1 : committee on the
camp changes and names of said camps
committee on the changes of officers of
Com pan v "G." Ton can suggest others
At our anniversary next June, let the
survivors take their rations, and act out
camp life and take them picnic fashion
On that occasion have the roll of the com
pany called as we did in the army, the ab
sentees noted and accounted for, and in that
exercise let any member of the company
make any remarks proper about those who
nave passed away, and also relate any
pleasing and interesting incident that came
under his observation during the war.
I offer these thoughts for your consider
tion. You may deem the matter unwise,
impolitic or untimely. With much respect,
I remain your obt. serv t.
Geo. C. Underwood.
Brush Creek, N. C, Sept. 1, 1881.
Mr. Geo. C. Underwood, My Dear Sir
I am in receipt of your's of the 24th Aug
I can say to you that I heartily concur in
the suggestions named. I think a meeting
of that kind would be attended with good
results. I will take great pleasure in doing
anything 1 can to carry out your sugges
tions and do hereby invite all the Com
pany, who are friendly to your proposition
to meet us at Capt. Matthews' on Friday,
October 7, 1881. And we would also be
clad to see as many or Company as
could attend. At this meeting we can ar
range our plana.
Having a high regard for the whole
command, whose history I would not be
asnamed. but proud to see published, I will
suggest that all the other companies of the
jvtst OrtrV Dn.!mat4 IiaIiI aSmlv moatSniH
and at their meetings appoint a corre
sponding Secretary whose duty it shall be
to ascertain the propriety of having a meet
ing of the whole Regiment at some conve
nient time and place, where we can invite
our old Colonel, now Senator Vance, to be
with us. This would be a sight I would
be pleased to witness, before we " pass
over the river to rest under the shade.
Yours moat truly,
John R. Lane.
The Fall Term of Chatham Supe
rior court will begin on the 19th met
OM Chathaniite Interviewed.
We have had the pleasure of meet
ing here on a visit to his old friends,
Mr. Thomas W. Harman, of Madison
county, Indiana, an old Qiathamite,
who removed from this county just
thirty years ago this month. Prom
Mr. Harman we learned many points
tbat may be of interest toL our readers.
When he removed to Indiana the
county, in which he lives, was almost
a wilderness, only a few clearings, no
public highways, and wolves, deer
and game of all kinds were plentiful.
Now, two railroads run within five
miles of his farm, and another is
building still nearer. In the neigh
boring village of Elmwood are a two
story brick public school-house, four
churches, three steam saw-mills and
other industries. Land is worth from
twenty to sixty dollars an acre. The
average yield of corn per acre' is fifty
bushels, and of wheat twenty bushels.
Corn is now selling at 40 cents and
wheat'$1.25 per bushel. Thousands
of hogs are raised and are shipped
alive to Cincinnati. The hogs are
frequently fattened by turning them
into the corn-field, instead of gather
ing the corn and feeding them. No.
fertilizers are bought, and, instead pi
railroad stations being crowded wjfch
piles of gnano, they are crowded with
piles of produce which bring money
into the country instead of carrying
it off, as is the case unfortunately
with lis.
The most improved farming uten
sils and labor-saving machines are
used, such as sulky plows, wheat
cutting machines, &c. Our farmers
might learn much useful information
from Mr. Harman.
Mr. Harman has been a subscri
ber to the Record ever since its es
tablishment, and says its weekly
vists are most welcome like letters
from home.
General News.
Carrard county, Kentucky, distil
era will use wheat instead of rye, the
crop of the latter being unusually
short.
If you get hold of a silver dollar of
1804 remember it is worth $800.
There are only eight known to be in
existence, one of them being in the
British Museum.
In Davis county, Iowa, Hiram
Brooks, a youth of 18 years, shot his
father. The elder Brooks was beat
ing bis wife, and the son interfered
in behalf of his mother. The old
man pursued the boy with a club,
who beiog pushed to the wall, shot
his father. He is now in custody.
A powder explosion occurred on
the 6th in the packing house of the
Lake Superior Powder Company.

News and Observer : Trains on the
Oxford and Henderson Railroad now
run regularly, leaving Oxford at 8
a. m. and connecting at Henderson
with the train on the Raleigh and Gas
ton Railroad going north.
The Oxford Free Lance says that
the corn in Granville has been
cut for forage, with scarcely a sign
of an ear on the stalk, and that the
tobacco crop is so signal a failure
that the celebrated Granville nne
wrappers will be off of the market
entirely next year.
The Fayetteville Examiner says:
During the cotton year fast drawing to
a close, (Sept. 1, 1881,) there navejbeen
sold in the Fayetteville market, about
25,000 bales of cotton, against 17,-
000 sold here last year. This is an
increase of about forty five per cent
in the amount. For this cotton more
than one million of dollars have been
paid out.
News and Observer: Saturday
nicht Mrs. G. B. Powell, of New
Light township, went from her house
to that of a neighbor's to attend a
prayer meeting. While sitting in the
house she complained of a sudden
and severe pain in the regions of the
heart, and then, in faint tones, asked
for water. A glass of this was hand
ed ner, but ere she could take it her
head fell forward slightly, and in a
few moments she was dead, never
having spoken another word.
Newbern Nat Shell : The citizens
of Salisbury have stated to Presiden
Best, of the Midland Railway Com
pany, that if he will build the machine

they will subscribe the magnificent
sum of $60,000 to aid in their con
struction and equipment. We also
understand that Mr. Best prefers to
utilize the shops here and to add to
their size and efficiency as the work
on the line progresses, and makes
more work room and more workmen
an indispensable necessity.
Raleigh Visitor, 7th inst: We learn
that on yesterday afternoon Mr.
David Andrews, who lives about six
miles south of this city, accidentally
shot himself and died instantly. We
learn that the young man had just dis
charged one barrel and was standing
.1 1 L
m tne aoor, anasome one standing near
by heard himsay as he went to blow
in the muzzle, suppose the gun goes
off, and instantly the report of the
gun was heard and the person saw
him fall forward, the load passing
through the upper hp and lodging in
the head, only slightly disfiguring
the mouth.
News and Observer: At a meeting
of the Cotton Exchange yesterday it
was resolved to prosecute all par
ties who sell "Xalse packed cotton
in this market, and also any parties
who pack such cotton. This is a
proper plan to pursue. By false
packed cotton is meant cotton which
is of two grades, low grade in the
middle of the bale and good cotton
outside.
It is said that a pious (?) member
of one of our Chatham churches was
guilty of such a trick, a few years
ago. Such rascals ought to be sent
to the penitentiary Ed. Record
Statesville Landmark : On two
hills, within "hollering" distance of
each other, in Turnersburg township
this county, there live two neighbors.
They have thus lived for thirty-four
years, their fences joining, and the
usual neighborly relations, such as
borrowing and lending, being all the
time maintained. There has never
been a quarrel or a difference, great
or sm all, between them. Thev have
voted at every election for thirty-four
years; neither has ever asked the other
in advance how he expected to vote,
and yet thev have never voted dif
ferently. We commend their ex
ample to all neighbors. Ed. Record.
Charlotte Observer : Redmond, the
famona moonshiner, passed through
the city yesterday, going from Green
ville to Albany, New York, to begin
to serve out a sentence of ten years
which he received at Greenville a few
days since, lie was neatly dressed
and looked cheerful and talked freely.
He said, with a smile, that he
hoped President Garfield wonld
get well speedily' as he thought
the President's recovery would
shorten the time he would have
to spend in prison. He was con
fident that he would not serve out
his entire term, anyway. He ex
pects to be pardoned and come back
and be a gentleman, he said. He
held one of the sensational histories
of his life in his hand and remarked
to the gentleman from whom these
facts are obtained : "There is one
word of truth in this," holding up the
book, "and that is my name.
Moore Gazette: Some time ago, in
Ben Salem township, while Mr.
Josiah Allen was going across Cabin
creek, about the plantation of Mr.
ockey Allen, he found a snake about
three feet in length, in color unlike
any he had ever seen before. He
approached and struck it with a
stick, wounding it, and at the wound
young snakes about six inches long
began to crawl out and lick out their
tongues at him. Mr. A. made use of
his stick, killing all that came
numbering 55. He then went on to
the barn, where a number of men
were threshing, and told his story.
Four others went back with him to
see the curiosity, again struck the
old 'snake, and there crawled out 66
more, which were served like the
first Mr. JL W; Dunn put them on
his hat carefully a one by one, and
carried them to. the . barn that all
might see them 121 snakes killed
in one spot! Who can beat this?
Reidsville Times: We hear that
one old native of Buncombe, a Mr.
Pullman, speaking of Judge Merri
mon, told Mr. J. R. W ebster that the
first time he ever remembered seeing
Merrimon was one day at Merii-
mon's father's saw mill, when he
noticed him a mere boy dressed
in a tow shirt, tow pants, a chip hat
and barefooted, sitting on the end
of a log reading a Webster's dic-
tionarv. The next time he heard of
him some gentleman was speaking
of a distinguished Senator who was
said to have few equals in ability
in the united states, ana, on in
quiring who it was he referred to,
was told Senator Merrimon. Uoys
there s a lesson for you. Not col
lege bred. No dancing master to
