LINDSAY HOLMES, INSPECTED COLORED CITIZEN, DEAD Lindsay Holmen, aged aixty-one yean, a highly respected colored •dt iaen, died at his home two miles southeast at Asheboro Sunday night following several months feeble health. He was one of the old type of Southern negroes who was energet ic, honest and straightforward. Lindsay was thoroughly accommo dating and reliable and numbered his friends among white and weH as col ored. He practiced economy and dealt fairly with everyone. He earne to Asheboro thirty-one years ago and for many years was in the employ of the Hammer family entirely but for Capt. F. C Robbins, 93, Died Tuesday Born In Trinity Township, Ran- 1 dolph County—Member Da vidson Bar 50 Years. Captain Frank C. Robbins, for 60 years a member of the Davidson coun ty bar and an active attorney for more than fifty years, , died at his home in Lexington Tuesday. Death was hastened by a fall which he sus tained Sunday night at his home. Captain. Robbins was 93 years old on July 30th, last, and Upon this occasion was honored by a number of his friends and relatives who gathered to pay tribute to his long and useful life. Funeral service was held Wednes day at the First Presbyterian church, Lexington, and interment was made in the Lexington city cemetery. Captain Robbins was a native of Trinity township, Randolph county, a' son of the late Rev. Ahi Robbins, and a brother of the iate William M. Rob bins. Captain Robbins was a law student when he left his studies to join the Confederate army with which he served with distinction. He was four tinies wounded in battle. After the war, he had for years been a prominent member of veterans’ or ganizations and for several years past was judge advocate general of North Carolina Confederate Veterans. Following the war, Captain Robbins completed his law course and began the practice of his profession in Lex ington. He was long regarded, as one of the State’s leading lawyers. For years he was a member of the Lex ington schotd board and was an elder in the Presbyterian church. Though all his life interested in public af fairs he never sought public office. Capt. Robbins was' perhaps the best known man in Davidson county for the past quarter century or more. He was a typical product of the old south, a man of unfailing courtesy,; as exemplified when Governor Mc Lean called upon him at his hdme! in Lexington last month. Although, enfeebled by his years and long ill-! ness, Capt. Robbins arose to greet bis guest and when the governor sought to assist him to his seat, insisted on! standing, saying, ’T will not be seated! while the governor of Worth Carolina1 is standing.” Surviving the deceased are the wife, two sons, Hargrave Robbins, manufacturer, oLChester, & C.; Ros well B. Robbins, register of deeds, of Davidson county, and three daugh-' ters, Miss Sue Robbins, of Asheville;; Mrs. C. F. Liowe, of Winston-Salem, and Mrs. W. C. Pancake, of Staun ton, Va.

These tire bargains were! made known to the people through a1 page advertisement in The Courier with a liberal sprinkling of page! posters over the county. These tire dealers have been surprised at the'j fast rate at winch the automobile, owners of the county have taken ad vantage of their attractive offers. It' is going to take a large number of, tires to keep the demand supplied during the 30 days, but Gamer and Ingram advertised a thirty-day tire, reduction sale, and they are going to, Stick it otft even if they have to make a special factory order for more tires. wife, ID.
