DEATH OF AN AGED LADY.
Irs. Stephen Brewer Passes Away
After a Lingering Illness.
Mrs. S. D. Brewer, relict of the late
tephen Brewer, who for a number
i years was sheriff of Chatham coun
, died at the home of her son,
George Brewer, in Pittsboro, at 11
o'clock on Friday night, December
\ 1922, after an illness of some two
ears duration, being 78 years old.
Mrs. Brewer was the daughter of
'irs. Matilda Paschal, who died on
August 8, 1922 near Siler City. She
came from a family of long lived peo
tle —Mrs. Paschal lacking only a few
months of reaching her 100th anniver
sary.
Four brothers survive Mrs. Brew
er: R. L. Paschal, Fort Worth, Tex.,
Dr. George Brewer, Wake Forest, J.
T. Brewer, of Goldston, and R. F.
Brewer, of Siler City, and three sis
ters, Mrs. Lydia Caviness, of Mineral :
Wells, Tex., Mrs. R. D. Smith, Siler
City, Rt. 1, and Mrs. Dora Johnson,
oi Greensboro., She also leaves two
sons and one daughter: Fred Brew
er, Knoxvville, Tenn., and George
Brewer, Pittsboro, with whom she
made her home, and Mrs. Jacob
Thompson, Pittsboro.
Mrs. Brewer was well known in
Chatham county. She was a woman of
lovable disposition, kind-hearted and
free from all affectation. A good wo
man has passed over to the other side
and all of her friends and relatives
will sadly miss her. It might be said
of her that “her hair was silvery grey
but she had a heart of gold.”
The funeral sendees were held at
the First Baptist church in Pittsboro,
of which she had been a long and
faithful member, being conducted by
her pastor, Rev. R. R. Gordon at 11
o’clock Sunday morning. The large as
semblage of friends and the many
floral offerings, attesting the high es
eem in which she was held
Among those from a distance who
attended the funeral were Mrs. Chas.
3rewer, Henderson, Mr. and Mrs.
red Hunter, her nephew, of Mar

’'OUR OF INSPECTION IN NO. 4.
i. M. Berry Writes Interesting Ac
count of The Highways.
In a long article on the highways
of North Carolina, H. M. Berry, who
made the trip on a tour of inspection,
writing to the Greensboro News Sun
day, Dec. 24th, he says:
“The second day of inspection, still
aining at intervals, takes us south
rst on route 75 from Durham to
dhapel Hill over 12 miles of hard sur
face, eight miles of Kentucky rock
4phalt xmd -four -miles __ of ,concrete,
yjhis road is subjected to perhaps
leavier traffic than any other 12
niles in the state —local, state and
oreign. State maintenance is in evi
lence even now on this newly con
structed road. The shoulders are in
excellent condition and along the high
embankments guard rails have been
erected and painted white, giving an
iir of neatness and finish to the road
■g well as a sense of security to the
raveler, particularly on dark nights.
A few years ago the journey to the
State University was a nightmare
whether made by the slow, painfully
•reaking process of “Captain Smith’s
)us” or the jolting, jabbing, nerve
acking process of Pendergraft’s jit
ney. Today it’s a 20 or 30-minute
-ide of comfort and delight, the only
Irawback being the motorist who for
gets there is a speed limit.
Passing through the University
;own, now astir with all kinds of con
struction, we continued our journey
southward on route No 75 over a re
;ently constructed sand-clay project
;o the Chatham line and then over a
'eteral aid project, sand-clay, through
the cotton mill village of Bynum
to the ancient capital of Chatham,
Pittsboro A splendid concrete bridge
a thousand feet long is under con
struction over Haw river between
Bynum and Pittsboro now about 75
pr cent complete. This bridge is well
up to the standards in bridge con
struction established by the state
uighway commission, which includes
beauty of design as well as excellence
of construction
No. 75 now turns westwards over
a federal aid top-soil project and
akes us to Chatham’s industrial me
tropolis, Siler City, where one finds
s umiture factories, wood-working es
ablishments, cotton mills and a chick
n ranch which is supplying a large
erritory with “baby chicks.”

' | Getting over Christmas is kind ’o
like getting off a long jag, you have
to go .slow and take it easy. About
,' the first week in December, everybody
and everything gets into a trot and
by Christmas Eve it is a regular run
! away. But everybody has had Christ
mas and now we are taking a new
hold and will next begin the steady
poll for 1923
Looking back o’er the year that
is gone, we all must admit that we
j did not make half as much out of it
fas we could or should. Everybody
makes mistakes except the fellow who j
j won't admit it, and you can usually I
size him up as the biggest fool in |
the community The opportunities we 1
had for advancement or helping out j
a worthy neighbor or telling some-;
body how much they helped us, ai*e
all gone and gone forever.
A new year and another chance is
given and while I never did put much
store in making New Year’s resolu- j
tions, it won't e out of pla~e to
make determination is v e •nd now
that we won’t let 1923 go by wit.: as
1 t’e done as wo find when we take
account of what 1922 ha: meant to
us as i.'divi v.ls an* as a community.
Most of us had rat. or .ell sor. hody
e’se of mistakes than to • dmi-. our
c n tut I for one wcu'd like to : 'e
a Irtti ■ more neighborly .tei .st and
v ot less fault finding ar.d ick
irg going on in our eom 'unity. There
is about to.i . r maybe a ew more fel
lows in i u town who are leva s soie
avci who a. gc.ng about kicking on
h or tax' s, poor officers, and ail sorts
of things which are not up to their
liking. It is a great pity that they
can’t be put to some useful employ
ment but we don’t have any law’ for
it and the only way they can be han
dled is to make it convenient to miss
them when they come around.
I did no go up on the river to see
my old neighbors this Christmas, but
if the roads dry up a little the com
ing v’eek, I have promised to spend
one night with Jim Young’s folks.
There is really no leisure time any
rnore’-wHh anybody, hut- at Jjlyit I am
going to get my share of back bone
and sapre ribs before it all gets eat
up, and I have not had a fill on crack
ling corn bread since new r meal come
in.
Here’s washing good luck to all for
a good 1923.

Buried at Pleasant Hill Methodist
Church on Last Sundiy.
Mrs. J. D. Womble, aged 66 years,
hocmeily Miss Addie May, a native
oi Chatham county, gently passed
away at five o’clock at her home in
Pittsboro on Saturday morning, Dec
ember 20, 1922. She was thus releas
ed from suffering which she had
dured for a number or weeks.
The funeral was conducted at 12
o’clock Sunday at Pleasant Hill Meth-
I odist church of which she was a faith
! ful member, the services being con
ducted by her pastor, Rev. J. J.
Boone.
Special music was rendered by the
Pleasant Hill choir, ably assisted by
Mrs. Henry Bynum and Mrs. W. P.
Horton, of Pittsboro.
Surviving are her husband, J. D.
Womble, five daughters: j Mrs. C. K.
Wrenn, of Siler City, Mrs. R. L
GtAdstorry Blair,
' Pittsboro, Mrs. W. J. Myers, View

Mrs. Womble a woman of
splendid attainments and she number
ed her friends by the score. Her vir
tues and splendid qualities is strong
ly manifested in a family of sturdy

be la-ting as the years go by, and
even ur.to the end of time.
Her death w r as caused by heart
trouble, and for many weeks she suf
fered with Christian patience and she
came to the end with that same sim
ple faith that she had cultivated in
her Christ, and she passed away as
if in the sleep of those only who

fihe writer has known Mrs. Wom
ble but a few months, but he real
ized on first acquaintenance that she
was a woman of strong influence, of
keen intellect and firm in her convic
tions for the right. She was ever
ready to minister, her services were
free, her love and devotion to home
and loved ones, and her constant at
tention to all were but emblematic
>i a noble life, a splendid woman, and
Chatham county suffers with her lov
'd ones in her passing.

ABOUT CHATHAM ROADS.
New Roads and Changes on Old Ones
is Information Now.
Information comes from the office
of Highway Commissioner John
Sprunt Hill, of the fourth construc
tion district, that Route 60 is to be
relocated from Goldston, via Gulf, to
; Sanford. Project 402. in Chatham;
\ county, from Siler City to the Ran
;! dolph county line, 6.9 miles, is now;
, under construction, and something
! ! like 50 per cent complete. Nc. 405,
1 Siler City to the Lee county line,:
i some 19 miles, and 499, Lee county!
line from Gulf to Route 50 intersec- j
tion (three miles north of Sanford)
are being surveyed, and sometime in
the new year contracts will be let for
construction, giving a twenty-five
mile stretch cf Route 60 in both Lee
and Chatham. From Siler City to
Gulf the new route will follow closely
that of the present road; beyond Gulf,
in the direction of Sanford, the new
bridge over Deep river will be cross
ed; thence directly to the three-mile
post north of Sanford, No. 60 being
straightened, and shortened about
five miles Siler City to Sanford is
provided for out of the existing au
thorization, for first-class gravel con
struction. There is plenty of gravel
to be had in the district, a material
much superior to any sort of soil
type construction.
The route coming from the Wake
county line, through New Hope town
ship, via of Pittsboro, through Oak
land township, to Sanford, is now hav
ing its final survey south of Pitts
boro. This road will also be of the
top-soil gravel type south of Pitts
boro at present, but eventually will
be of concrete construction.
This new highway will leave the
New Hope road near JMr. Beard’s res
idence, entering Pittsboro just south
of the residence of Capt. J. F. Als
ton, on East street, going out South
street to the south of the Courthouse.
The new survey that is presumed will
be accepted goes west a great dis
tance to the old route, passing to the
rear of the M. H. Harris farm, run
ning south through the woods by the
old Clapp place, following almost a
direct course to Sanford.
All these roads will be graded and
opened to the public early in the year.

WHAT ILLICIT LIQUOR WILL DO.
Some Dreadful Crimes During Xmas
Holidays Traceable ti Liquor.
According to .the Raleigh Times
D. C. Winston, a farmer living in
Wake county, criminally assaulted his
! 17-year old daughter on Tuesday af
ternoon, Dec. 26. He is now in the
Wake jail for awaiting trial by the
j superior court charged with the capi
tal offense. Winston had been on a
spree for a week and pretends that
he does not remember anything what
ever regarding his crime against his
i own child The girl was to have been
• married the day before, but on ac
count of the office of register of deeds
being closed for Christmas, was un
able to secure license
Back in the woods somewhere in
Wake county is a miserable, cowardly
violator of the law that is responsi
ble for this dastardly crime. It must
be broken up. Whose duty is it?
In Cumberland county during the
same time, the legally constituted of
ficers of the law were after liquor
makers, with the result that one of
the deputies was shot seriously, mak
ing the seventh man to be shot from
the sheriff’s office within six years.
During the same week two were
killed in Raleigh, there was a hold
up and an incendiary fire in the same
city, all the result of illegally made
liquor.
In New York there were eight men
killed as a result of liquor and it
was proven that more than four mil
lion dollars worth of whisky was sold
in that city during Christmas.
The hospitals in New York report
ed more than a hundred deaths as a
result of alcoholism, more than ever
before in the history of the hospitals
at Christmas time
The daily papers of North Carolina
were filled with accounts of fights,
shootings, murders and disgraceful
law violations all over the State, and
it was the same evverywhere in the
south.
The question arises, are we trying
to blot out illicit distilleries, or are
we just lagging along with the sup
position that it is “not bothiuf*ng:i«l*k
and I’ll let it au>re?”
The Ku Klux may b? organized in
such a manner that it leases a loop
hole for others to do mischief, but
if one of their missions are tu blot
out the liquor business, then we shake
lw»*ter£ei: sejgoii aj Jeast.
CRUEL, HEARTLESS WOMAN.
Abandons Infant on Train in Siler
City Friday, Dec. 29.
A young girl, apparently about 18
years of age, left the afternoon train
going north, in Siler City on Fri
day, Dec. 29th, leaving on the train
a wee infant, just a few days old.
The girl boarded the train in Fay
etteville and had suit cases and oth
er baggage with her, all of which she
carefully took off the train, but the
small girl baby she left to the mercy
of the the charity of the good people
that happened to be on the train.
As soon as the conductor was in
j formed, he was too far away from
I Siler City to do any good toward trac
' ing the heartless mother, but he wired
to Greensboro, where John J. Phoe
nix, supt. of the Children’s Home So
! ciety awaited the arrival of the in
fant and has since cared for it.
The infant had been woefully ne
glected, was undernourished and very
weak, but since getting into the hands
of good people it has developed won
derfully.
It is useless for this paper to de
scribe a woman that would wilfully
and intentionally abandon her off
spring in this manner. We can’t very
well do it and print the words in this
paper, but no stone should be left
unturned to learn the name of the
cruel, heartless wretch, and mete out
to her such punishment as would be
permissable under the law, and if
be no law to meet the emergen
cy, then we had best ask Greensboro
to loan us their K. K. K. just for a
few hours.
. (Since the above was nut in tynp
we are informed that the girl who
! abandoned the infant has been arrest
ed in Fayetteville, and will be brought
;to Chatham county to stand trial We
trust that all the guilty parties to the
plot will be caused to suffer for the
heinous act. —Ed.)
