Edgecome embraced what is now Nash. War. ren, Halifa, Granville and Vance counties; so some of ithe oldest rtcoraa can be found in all of these counties. Granville was formed from Edgecombe-her first bff-spring-in 1746. In 1758 Halifax ana uute were formed from Granville making them gTand-daugh a Vl r.uKecomoe, and m 1779 Bute was divided into Warren and rankhn, making them great grand-daughters of Edgecombe. So the history of Warren is linked un in the earlier dav of our country with a vast territory, and the records prior to 1758 may oe iound in Halifax, Edgecombe and Granville court houses, ttuu ijrooaojy m iNasn county.

In our last issue we gave -tfie names of the children of Joseph Speed Jones 4 and Mary Ann Fort. Mary Speed Jones 5, daughter of Joseph Speed Jones and Mary Ann Fort, married Dr. William Parker Mercer, of Edgecombe county. A tribute to this worthy couple appeared in a recent is sue of The Record. They have an elegant home, which is the abode of hospitality and refinement. Dr. Mercer is a wide-awake up-to-date physician, a fine diagnostician. The writer built for him the first telephone line ever constructed in Edgecombe county and was associated with him for years in the ownership of the va rious rural linen and the Wilson telephone system.

In discussing with him the talents exhibited by his wife, he re marked: "Yes, she has what some one has called 'omnibus' tal ents'can do any and all things well." Mrs. Mercer deserves great commendation for the good work she is doing at Temperance Hall Sunday-school. She is musician and superintendent and goes faithfully Sabbath after Sabbath and is laying up for herself ''Treasures in Heaven." The you npr people of the school are de voted to her and many in after years will rise up and call her blessed.- Her eood husband with his purse aids her in all her good deeds. We acknowledge our indebtedness to them for many pleasant hours spent under their roof. They are the parents of the following children: Margaret Estella 6, Mary Fort 6, John Routh 6, Routh Speed 6 and Lenoir Cook . Margaret Estelle Mercer 6 married T Clyde Tilghman, of an old Maryland family of that name, and has the following children: T. Clyde 7, and Rose 7.

On the evening of December 3rd, a large audience was delight ed at the splendid presentation of the play "Just For Fun,"giyen under the auspices f the Graded School Faculty. Many of those present joined in saying that it was one of the best amateur thea tricals they ever attended. The two young ladies were attractive ly represented by Misses Hayle and Chinault, while Lord Chelsea and his friend were, represented by Messrs. Henry White and Opie. But no less interesting and amusing than the principal characters" were "the aunt." Miss Jessie Stockland and "Jane." Mrs.; M. H. Hayes. These truly delighted the audi ence with their faultless presen tation of the parts assigned them and the whole play was well ren dered. Between the acts music was 'rendered ,by Miss Carrie Dunn and Mr.,tVbite. On December 17th, theladies of the place will give a bazzar and supper, on the " second floor of the J. R.

Our townsman, Mr. Tasker f Polk, is in great demand as a public speaker wherever "wit and worth and words, wisdom and eloquence and the power of speech to stir men's blood" are appreciated. He has just re turned from Goldsboro where he delivered an -address on Elks Memorial Day to a large and cul tured audience. We copy the following justly deserved-tribute from the Goldsboro Argus: After these ritualistic ceremo nies, in a most pleasmg and at tractive manner Mr. J. JL. Bar ham, of this city, introduced the Tas- letter Not Get Dyspepsia If you can help it." Kodol prevents Dyspepsia, by effectually helping Nature to Relieve Indigestion. But don't trifle with Indigestion. . B. B. WILLIAMS, Attorney - at - Law, Warrenton, IT. C. T. W. BlCKTT, Looisburg, N. C. M. J. Hawkins, Uulgeway, N. C. HAWKINS & BICKETT, Attorneys at Law. R. M. DUNN, orator of the occasion, Hon. ker Polk. . ' V In the history of Goldsboro there have been many great and beautiful speeches made by dis tinguished men, but we do not believe there has ever been made in this city a more beautiful, a more eloquent speech than was delivered Sunday afternoon at the Opera House by Hon Tasker Polk, on the occasion of the an nual meeting of the Lodge of Sor row held by the Lodge of Elks of this city. - It was a splendid audience that looked into the face of the orator as he stood before them, and an nounced as his subject, "Am I' my brother's keeper?" From the first utterance to the last word Mr. Polk held the great audence speil-bound. ' Logic, pathos, and eloquence were the qualities that went to make up this great oration, which showed to men and women their duty as they never before had seen it, edified them, and caused them to go away from the audi torium resolved thatrin their fu ture lives tliey would never lose sight of the fact that "I am my brothe'rs keeper.

Use Kodol and prevent having Dyspepsia. Everyone is subject to indiges tion. Stomach derangement follows stomach abuse, just as naturally and just as surely as a sound and healthy stomach results upon the taking of Kodol. When you experience sourness of stomach, belching of gas and nauseating fluid, bloated sensation, gnawing pain in the pit of the stomach, heart burn (so-called). diarrhoea, headaches, dullness or chronic tired feelingyou need Kc . dol. And then the quicker ycu take Kodol the better. Eat what you want, let Kodol digest It. Ordinary pepsin "dyspepsia tab lets," physics, etc., are not likely to be of-jnuch benefit to you, in digestive ailments. Pepsin-is only a partial digester and physics arc not digesters at all. Kodol is a perfect digester. If you could see Kodol digesting every parucie or rood, or all kinds, in the glass test-tubes in our laboratories, you would know this just as well as we do. Nature and Kodol will always cure a sick stomach but in order to be cured, the stomach must rest. That is what Kodol does rests the stomach, while the stomach gets well. Just as simple as A, B, C.
