Allen Glasgow Named Winner of $500 Scholarship Allen D. Glasgow, a freshman at Chowan College, recently won a $500.00 college scholarship as a national winner in the 4-H Elec tric Program. He won the award at the National 4-H Electric Con gress in Chicago. The $500.00 scholarship award is one of six scholarships given an nually by the Westinghouse Edu cational Foundation which has sopnsored the project for 28 years. Glasgow was one of 49 state winners in the 4-H Electric Pro gram who won an expense-paid trip to Chicago to attend the five- day annual National 4-H Congress. Allen qualified for the scholarship by completing 52 electrical installa tions at home and repairing 83 electrical appliances. The Chowan freshman is a na tive of Halifax County. History (Conf'd) Dr. Moore was the father of a large family, six sons and three daughters. One son and a daughter died while quite young. All five living sons served in the Civil War. James, one of the sons, returned home on leave of absence in 1862, but died of a heart attack before seeing his father. His father found him dead at the front gate. Dr. Moore’s oldest son, John W. Moore, the historian, married the first graduate of Chowan College, Miss Annie J. Ward. One of the daugh ters of Dr. Moore married Samuel J. Calvert of Jackson, N. C., and to this marriage five children survi ve, — May, Paul F., L. M., Mrs. Sallie Parker and Julia. These all live in Jackson except L. M. who is in Norfolk, Va. The Reverend James A. Delk said of Godwin Cotton Moore in his obituary in the Chowan Association Minutes of 1882; "Truly and well did he honor every station in life he was called to fill, leaving the world better for having lived in it. As a man he was genial, courteous, benevolent, just. As a husband and a father affectionate, kind and true, and a Christian gentleman of the highest type. His influence for good was widespread and helpful. He died (May 16) 1880, loved and lamented by all who knew him.” I close with these lines from Longfellow’s “Psalm of Life”: Lives of great men all remind us, We can make our lives sublime; And departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. Diagram Chowan College Campus 'McKnight and Creech, A His tory of Chowan College, p. 19. -By way of explanation, "Mul berry Grove” occurs many times in this paper. It was the name of the Cotton home place, located three miles west of St. Johns. It has been called “Mulberry Grove” because twelve mulberry trees, in two rows, stood in front of the house; and because it became so well known as a center of outstand ing service in the area. History bears out the fact that the trees were there in 1782, and certainly much before that, as well as after that time. ^John W.
