I Our Heated Reply 1 To Mr. Prevatte? ( Methinks he doth protest too much. |' \ i Judge E. //. Cranmer t^tHEN he learned Sunday of the death c \\/ - - . "ti /-<?_.T c w 01 Judge Ei.n. V/raumci, uutvuw. M. Broughton said, "The death of Judge f E. H. Cranmer removed from active public life another of the outstanding judges J and public leaders of our state. Judge f Cranmer served with distinction as a Su-1l } perior Court judge .... His record is f notable and his death is a distinct loss to *3 the state." t The truth of what North Carolina's chief executive has said with regard to ( the state as a whole, must be multiplied ( a hundred fold with regard to the life of service lived by Judge Cranmer in his ' home county and in his home community, j t Truthfully it may be said of him thatj t he never did a thing that was in compro-je mise with the high position of honor and j, trust in which he was placed repeatedly! by the voters of his judicial district; and* proudly may it be remembered that" al-*i ways he lived up to the finest expecta-ji ' tions of his family, friends and well-wish-!? , ers. , Possessed of a keen sense of humor, |. the justice he meted out was tempered i . . with mercy; and although he occupied a j1 " high place in public trust, he never lost1 f * his common touch. Like all good men who have achieved ; s - a measure of greatness, there will bej stories that will live after him; but it is 11 likely that all of the acts of charity andil thoughtfulness that were his practice will ever be brought to light. Well may it be' said that the good that he did will live I after him; and as a final benediction! upon his life there can be no other nor; higher reward for him than "Well done,! thou good and faithful servant." |i WATTS DEATH | miliary, Rev.

Johnson presented the Bible, and Ftev. H. S. Strickland gave the j charge. Then came the ordination i prayer, in which the candidate j kneeled and the presbytery placed! their hands upon his head, the j pastor of the church leading the prayer. While singing "Have' Thine Own Way, Lord." the con- j jregation came forward and shook j Mr. Peterson's hand.

While I have not! oeen in Brunswick Ccntv only a j little more than three years, I lave learned to love the people j lere. I feel that they are my! friends and I am sure that they j place me in the same category. J It has never been a policy of | mine to nlace undue hardships on : my of our good people. Each of j js has a great responsibility at this 'time in winning this war. | May I. therefore, request that we jear our responsibilities and sacri-1 fices in this war together. I do lot want to avoid any part of the sacrifices and I am sure that ill of our good people join with me in this same attitude. Tf I was wrong in not holding court that morning, then I did it in the interest of our war program. Assuming that attitude, I do not feel that my criticism was well founded. I was of the opinion that [ had sufficiently explained this to the editor of the paper before lie published his last issue and [ am at a loss to understand why tie wrote the editorial in the face if the explanation. Surlely the sditor is also primarily interested I in the war program. "E. J. PREVATTE. "Acting Judge of Brunswick County Recorder's Court." .
