“Motion pictures, I believe, are the
most influential form of expression,”
Mr Zukor said in a statement. “In
number of patrons it is rivaled only
bv the press. But it has far more fol
lowers than books, magazines, the the
ater or any other medium you might
suggest.”
“Consequently the movies are not a,
private enterprise but a public insti- j
tution. The producers keenly feel their
responsibility and for the last year
have concentrated on ways and means
to elevate the screen both intellect
ually and morally.”
Among the productions for the com

COLORED WOMAN ASKS HELP.
One of The Old Slavery-Time Women
Seeking Relatives and Friends.
The letter below was mailed to us
by Col. Fred A. Olds from Raleigh,
in the hopes that we could help “aunt
Tabitha” a bit. If anyone knows any»
thing of the folks she wants to hear
from The Record will be glad to have
it, or it can be mailed to Mr. Olds,or
the writer of the letter.
Here is the letter:
Col. Fred A. Olds,
Hon. Sir: —Your name has been
given to me for an assistance on ob
taining all necessary information I am
seeking for. Seventy-two years ago
my mother was taken and brought to
this state. She /was living near a town
called Pittsboro, a place called Chat
ham, I suppose a county. She was
then 12 years of age; at the time she
was living with a man named Joe
Thomas, whose wife was named Chris
tine. There were two children when
she left them, George a boy and An
nie, a little baby girl.
Her mother was taken away from
her, Mahala was her name, 84 years
of age. Mahala’s mother was named
Lidda. She remembers her mother did
live with a family by the name of
Avings, but iwas sent away from there
but not very far off, but she did not
learn the name of her last owner. Ma
hala’s father was named Handy and
he lived with a family named Cox.
There were four Thomas brothers—
Joe, Baxter, Luther and John. Their
neighbors at that time was a family
named John Warmack, Alvis Avings
and George Avings. If there were any
more children borne by Lida after Ma
hala left her, I would be more than
glad to trace them up, even if there
is one in the state of North Caro
lina.
I have been informed that you are
historical and are able tp give account
of many years passt(k,
I am not exn|a|h|giipl%ear of Han
dy or living at this
time but perhaps some of their de
scendants.
If by any cause you can not give
me no information concerning them
please consult some one that has lived
in Chatham and Pittsboro, one that is
passed eighty years.
Please remember I am seeking rel
atives of Mahala Walters who was
brought from North Carolina about
the year 1841.
Please see stamps for reply.
Yours eagerly waiting reply,
TOBYTHA BRANTLEY,
Wrightsville, Ga., Rt. 2, Box 57.
P. S. —Please give me some history
of the Thomas brothers. What became
of them and their children; also the
Coxes, the Avings, the Warmacks.
DEATH OF MRS. HATCH.
Mrs. Martha Hatch, widow of the
late Lamey Hatch, passed into etern
ity at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
R. B. Lineberry, at Winton, Tuesday
of last week, aged about 74 years.
Her death followed an illness of five
/weeks from paralysis.
Mrs. Hatch was well known in Pitts
boro where she resided nearly all of
her life up to about three years ago,
when she left to live with some of
her children. .
Before moving to Pittsboro she
made her home at the Hatch farm,
about a mile from town. It seemed
hard for her to give up the old home
place and time and again she, with
her daughter, Mrs. Eva Lineberry,
would go out there and spend the sum
mer. Even during last June the two
spent several weeks there together.
Following their return to Colerain,
where Mrs. Hatch’s daughter was then
living, later moving to Winton, this
good woman was stricken with paraly
sis and never fully recovered, suffer
ing three strokes before the end came.
For five week Mrs. Hatch lay helpless
not being able to move her body, and
her daughter and friends at Winton
did all that love and sympathy could
do to relive her of pain and worry.
She passed away fully conscious of
the nearing end, although she was not
able to speak or raise a hand.
Her remains were brought to Pitts
boro Wednesday, August 22nd, and
were immediately taken to Hanks
cemetery, where she was laid to rest.
The funeral was conducted by Rev.
R. R| Gordon, assisted by Rev. Jonas
Barclay, amidst many sorrowing rel
atives, her children and kinsfolk.
Mrs. Hatch leaves two sons, Robert,
of Gainesville, Ga., and Mack, of Char
lotte, and two daughters, Mrs. G. R.
; Underwood, of Bennett, Mrs. R. B.
Lineberry, of Winton and many other
relatives to mourn their loss.
Relatives from Burlington, Pleas-;
ant Garden, Ramseur and other towns
were here to attend the funeral.
Truly, it can be said that that a
good mother and a good friend will be !
missed.

Improving The Goldston Road.
Mr. Alfred Johnson, overseer, with
his road force of men, h«ve moved
from the eastern part to the county
home and will put in a lot of work j
on the Goldston road to the river, j
widening and top soiling it. People
living along the road have agreed to
furnish teams to help do this ,work.
THE MEETING AT GOLDSTON.
Interest is Increasing and People are
Attending From Many Miles.
Rev. C. H. Matthews is having good
success with his meeting at Goldston,
and much good is resulting from the
services that are being held. On Sun
day night there were seventeen bright
boys and girls that presented them
selves at the altar, repenting of their
sins and resolving to live better
lives. At almost every service there
are many to come to the front and
express themselves as being touched
by the power of God and the meeting
will prove a great benefit to that en
tire section of Chatham county.
The seating capacity of the tent has
been taxed on more than one occasion, •
and folks are attending from near and
far. Some have come as far as 18
miles in a private conveyance.
Engineer A. R. Brothers and C. Ed
die Ruffin, both of Raleigh, are assist
ing Mr. Matthews in the night ser
vices and will be there during the
week. Those who would be glad to
hear Mr. Ruffin, can have the privilege
tonight (Thursday) as he will preafch
: at 8 o’clock on the “Second Coming.”
; Mr. Brothers will be there on other
| nights.
; A service is no>w being held in the
: afternoon at 3 o’clock. Inasmuch as
‘ the protracted meeting near Goldston
1 have closed, and there is no interfer
ence, Mr. Matthews has decided on an
' afternoon service as well.
There will be a special service held
r on Monday night, September 3rd for
! the colored people. All churches are
requested to come and bring their
■ choirs and songs. It is hoped that the
1 colored people will all be prepared to
’ sing some of their old time songs.
