The enemy was so situated on a mountain in the rear of Gettysburg that after many attempts to drive them, our troops were compelled to de sert—though not 'til the hardest fighting I ever heard, had taken place. On the 3rd of July there was a continuous roar of artil lery and small arms. More than two hundred pieces of artillery were in use at some time and slaughter was terrific on both sides.

Blonde Barbara Pepper, Tom Keene and Karen Morley are the principal leads in the story of city folks who have returned to the soil to make their living in the world. Expecting to find peace and happiness, they are surprised to encounter the conflicts of farm life.

OBITUARY OF LOWERY DULA Who Died At His Home In the Ferguson Community February 28th Lowery Diila, .son of Jefferson and Allle McGee Dula. was born near Elkville, Wilkes county, on June 6. 1842. and i«ssed away at his home in Fer.gusoP. N. C.. on February 28, 1935. Tile end came peacefully as he had lived. .Mr. Dula was a rona.genariai, having lived 92 years, S months and 22 days. He was a grand son of Bennett Dula. who with two brothers. William and John Dula, came from the state of Virginia sometime about the close of the Revolutionary war and settled in the valley of thi! Yadkin river which has tor sev eral generations been known as “Happy Valley” in Wilkes and Caldwell counties. At that time, of course, it was jknown as Wilkes county. A wide and in fluential connection in the civic and social life of this section of the state sprang from these stur- to which Mr. Dula dy pioneers belonged. When the clouds of the Civil war appeared in ISGl. Mr. Dula organization as a charter member family altar throughout all th and throughout the years the tenents of the church were near and dear to his heart. He cher ished the resurrection hope aod looked forward to the day when the graves shall surrender their dead and he would be privileged to again mingle with his loved ones. Industry, honesty, temperance and simplicity characterized the life of this good man. He was a gentleman of the old school, a most pleasant host and one who greatly enjoyed his friends and their visits. He maintained a years of his married life, and could boast of the proud record of never having been under the influence of strong drink, nor having used tobacco, nor allowed to fall from his Ups profane language or slang of any kind. Elkin, March 8.—Homer Allen, 32, young farmer of Hampton- ville, lost four fingers from his left hand yesterday while operat ing an electric feed machine at his farm. After receiving first aid from a physician he was taken to a Winston-Salem hospital.

We are now prepared to supply you with all kinds of FIELD AND GARDEN SEEDS volunteered in defen.se of his country, although but a youth of 19 summers. He gladly offered his services for the cause he thought was right, having vol unteered at Wilkesboro in a com pany organized by Captain Wil liam Barber, who later was pro moted to colonel, and who was fatally wounded in service. Mr. Dula served in a number of major engagements throughout the four years he was in the Confederate army. He was with General Jackson at Manassas, was also in the Battle of Fredericks burg, Cedar Mountain, Seven Days, Spottsylvania Court House and the New Bern skirmishes. During the Battle of Fredericks burg he was wounded, captured and carried as a prisoner to the federal hospital in Washington, D. C., where he received treat ment and was later exchanged and allowed to go back into the service of tlie southland. A woun ded and disfigured hand, a me morial of those dark and fearful days, lies now in a grave at Bea ver Creek church, Wilkes coun ty. The throbless heait of this patrlutic son of the Confederacy is still forever. When Mr. Dula returned from the great war he met the girl of his choice in Wilkesboro, who was Miss Martha Jane Harris, and they were united in marriage shortly following the war, and for more than 60 years they voyaged together over the matri monial sea in a most happy and congenial manner. To this union were born nine children, seven boys and two girls, fleven of which survive, namely: J. W. Dula and Q. E. Dula, of Danville, 'Va.; C. R. Dula, John Dula, S. H. Dula and L. C. Dula, of Win ston-Salem, and Mrs. W. V. Wil liams, of North Wilkesboro. Two children, Hackett Dula, a son, and Mrs. Kiter Dula Harris pre ceded him to the grave. Mr. Diila’s faithful companion also preceded him to the grave about five years ago. He is also sur vived by a 1 arge number of grandchildren and also before he died he had the privilege of holding in his arms a great, great grandchild, which is an unusual experience for anyone.
