THE DAILY RECORD, DUNN, N. C.
Marshbanks
He had almost been levied upon i
and sold to settle the debts of Mars I
Hill College, of which Anderson |
was one of the founders.
TAUGHT ARITHMETIC
Marsh bank's first teaching expe
rience was destined to be the
coaching in arithmetic; of the son
of that same ex-slave.
Marshbanks had come to Mars
Hill because his father ,a small
farmer in very poor health, had
moved there at great financial sac
rifice, to give his son and five
daughters the opportunity for edu
cation. Even so, the boy’s school
ing was limited to about five
months a year. Nevertheless he
was graduated from Mars Hill in
1903. In spite of the fact that he
was a sickly boy and was particu
larly ill the summer of his gradu
ation, he decided to go on to sen
ior college.
He received his A. B. from Wake
Forest College in 1908, His M. A.
and Li. B. the following year. Dur
ing his last two years of college
he was an assistant in physics. He
also managed a boarding house for
100 guests at Wake Forest, byway
oi paying for pert of his tuiuon.
Then came the offer from Buie's
Creek Academy. Acceptance of the
job led not only to quick found
ing of his lifes worn, but also
to his companion in this work. For
it was Mrs. J. A. Campbell, wife
of the founder and president of
the Academy (later to become
Campbell College) who introduced
the young man to Miss Lottie Mae
Link.
The introduction took place at
the Little River Association meet
ing at Antioch Baptist Church in
October, 1609. Miss Link, then a
student at Meredith College, was
head of the women’s missionary
work at the meeting.
The couple were married in June
1912. They have four children.
May Marshbanks, a teacher in Cha
pel Hill; Mildred <Mrs. W. A. John
son of Lillington; Dr. B. P. Marsh
banks, Jr., a dentist in Lillington:
and Nincy Link, who has just been
graduated from Campbell College
and will entep Wake Forest in the
fall. She plans to become a doc
tor.
OVERCAME HEALTH THREAT
Mention has been made of the
ill-health which dogged Marsh
banks during his younger days. He
was thought to have tuberculosis
when he came to Harnett County.
He bought his present farm and
began spending all of his spare
time in the open air. The threat
of illness subsided and has never
returned.
Always a lover of fine cattle,
Marshbanks has built up a herd
which roams the meadows and
open woods on both banks of the
stream, which shows on the map
as East Buie’s Creek, but which
old deeds refer to as Hughes Creek.

for troops to help strengthen the
levees. '
Already 10 families on the city’s
south side had been driven from
their homes. Another 50 families
on the north side were isolated and
were forced to comirfute to their
homes in boats.
PROPERTIES SANDBAHGED
Some industries along the river
front closed down and several
plants were sandbagging their prop
erty in anticipation of the expected
high water.
Maj. E. B. Campbell said the
critical danger area on the Missis
sippi lay between Alton, 111, and
Cape Girardeau. Mo. Campbell,
acting district engineer of the St.
Louis District Corps of Engineers,
said disaster crews were on double
shifts trying to bolster the levees
in the area.
Miami, Okla., was flooded by the
Neosho River, which drove 3,000
persons out of their homes and
caused $5,000,000 damage. Gov.
Johnston Murray declared a state

Gasoline and oil poured out of

i "The situation is serious enough

Dahlin of Kansas City. Kan., said
“I don’t want a Texas City here.

PENALTY REDUCED
The officials voted to reduce
the penalty for making a left turn
ot the comer of Broad and WUson
I from $lO fine and cost to $2 50,
provided the violators wish to set
tle the matter out of court. City
Commissioner Leek Coats said he
was afraid the present high fine
| would bring hard feelings from
I visitors.
i City Attorney I. R. Williams was
: instructed to submit a city or
j dinance covering double parking
| at the next meeting of the council,
i Police Chief George Arthur Jack
; son told the board that the pre
! sent law covering double parking
1 has no teeth and cannot be en
i forced. Williams agreed with the
; chief and told the board that,
"You haven't got much law on it
now.”
The board had an anonymous
letter—apparently from a resident
of the neighborhood—requesting
that a “dead end” sign be erected
at the entrance to General Lee
Ave., off Carr St. It was pointed
out that many vehicles enter the
street not knowing it is a dead
end and that the cars have dam
aged lawns and yards of citizens.
ACTION GRANTED
Even though the letter was an
onymous, the action was granted.
