72 years oid, had ben a member of
the Free Will Baptist Chueh, about

It become cur painful duty to
chronicle the death Mr. D. A. Jones
whom we reported ill at our. last is
sue and ho died at his home in this
tojn last Friday after an illness of
about two weeks. He had mcalci
and aftci wards contracted erysipelas
from which he died. In the death of
Mr. Jones Dunn sustains a great-loss.
He was one of those energeticcnter
prising, wide-awke men wbose place
will be hard to fill. Locating among
us at the very beginning of bur town,
no citizen ha3 done more to promote
our material growth. Mr. Jones was
a leading member of the Missionary
Baptist church here and the funeral
servicer were conducted by Revs.
Hollinian, of Apex, And Nowell, of
Smithfield. He leaves a family and
many friends who vilf mourn their
loss To the afflicted ones we ex
tend onr heartfelt fj-mpathy in this
their hour of deepest earthly sorrow.

- Mk. Editor : What about the
Dunn Fire Department. It seems as
if 'jiwas " done" sure enough. There
was a great fuss and stir made to
organize a Fir.1- Department hero.
The c:t:zen3 subscribed liberally and
the town authorities did all iu their
power under the charter to luVp.
.." The Department was organized and
equipped with a first class Hook and
Lauder Truck and a company Was
organized aiul since then (except one
or two occasi'jnr) i;cj Truck has not
beSTn .moved. .- ( -
Is, the chief of this Depart pi edt to
blame ftr this lack of interest in this
matter, or .does' the blame lie in the
fact that there being r.o fires he "don't
have a chance "to show his activity?"
He has good men good apparatus &c.
now. wr don't he practice his men?

This writer ha's intimated to the
Chief tb-rt he " should make some
move to let the people know that he
is alive and tliat his apparatus is still
ready for uss. . -
It is to be hoped lhat he will heed
our suggestion and, have the Foreman
to drill his company regular and of
ten. In a very short time the Town
Commissioners will be able to give
j this Dept. sheds, wells and other
things, and I say he must "shoot or
