SICK HEADACHES
Mr. Charles F. Todd, of Estes
burg near Waynesburg, Ky.,says:
"I was suffering with nervous
headaches. About once a week
I would have these headaches,
and have to quit work, and go to
bed for about twenty-four hours.
I would have pains in my neck,
and right behind my right ear.
"A merchant at Estesburg told
me to try taking Black-Draught,
which I did.
"It relieved me. From that
time on, I would take Black-
Draught as soon as I felt like I a
was going to have one of those
headaches —and they wouldn't
come on.
"Every few weeks, I take three
or four doses of Black-Draught,
and I feel so well, and do my
work, and don't lose any more
time with headache."

I
| County Historian Urges Club
to Assist in Marking Coun
ty's Historical Spots
The attendance at the Kiwanis
club Monday evening was not up to
the standard, due to many of the
members being away on vacation.
The dinner, served by Mr. Cowan
Blanton, was beyond expectation.
The program was in charge of Dr. R.
L. Reinhardt, w"no acted in the ab
sence of Mr*. C. E. Alcock.
The program was devoted to coun
ty history, and Clarence Griffin,
county historian and Courier News
Editor spoke on the historic spots of
Rutherford county. Mr. Griffin pre
sented to the club the proposition of
erecting markers on historic spots of
the county, and urged that a com
mittee working in conjunction with
other clubs of the county undertake
this laudible task. •
The first company to go into serv
ice in the War Between the States
from this county was recruited and
drilled in Forest City, said Mr. Grif
fin. Rutherford county furnished
eleven companies to the service, but
the old Burnt Chimney Volunteers,
later Company D, 16th North Caro
lina Volunteers, was the outstanding
organization recruited from the coun
ty. This company was composed al
most wholly of Forest City men and
during the four year's struggle ren
dered valiant service and participat
ed in every battle of note in the east
ern United States. When the organ
ization was paroled at Appomatox in
April, 1865, only nine men were pres
ent, out of an original number of
approximately 160 men and officers,
the remainder having been killed,
wounded or captured. There is now
only one survivor of this company,
Mr. Aaron Wall, of Henrietta.
The muster ground of this com
pany was on the square, and the flag
pole stood in front of the Farmers
Bank at the intersection of Cherry
Mountain and Depot streets, said Mr.
Griffin. A handsome shaft with a
bronze plate carrying the essential
facts of the organization of this com
pany and thefr accomplishments
would preserve to posterity the mem
ory of these gallant volunteers, and!
at the same time would beautify the
square, balance nicely with the
monument already erected at the up
per end of the square to the World
War dead, and would be a source of
pride to the city, as it would attract
attention of hundreds of tourists
passing daily.
Mr. Griffin further mentioned sev
eral other historic spots in the county
that should be marked, among them
the site of the Bechtler mint, Ruth
erf ordton; Old Gilberttown, which
was the camp of Ferguson's men pri
or to the battle of Kings Mountain,
and the place wherS the early courts
of the county were held for a long
period of time. Brittain Presbyterian
church, one of the oldest in the state,
also deserves some recognition, also
the grave of Lieutenant McCollough,
of Campbell's Corps, who was wound
ed at Kings Mountain and died at Gil
berttown and is buried in Brittain
cemetery.
These markers could be erected at
a small cost and the task would re
ceive the wholehearted response of
every citizen of the county. Mr. Grif
fin further urged that the Kiwanis
club consider the matter and take
some action on the suggestion. The
president, Mr. R. L. Reinhardt, ap
pointed a committee consisting of
Mayor Charles Flack, Prof. Charles
Erwin and Rev. G. R. Gillespie to
work with Mr. Griffin and commit
tees from the other clubs in the coun
ty, toward the end of marking all
spots of historic interest in Ruther
ford county. • '
Following this Mr. D. H. Sutton
spoke briefly in reference to the
honor that had recently come to one |
of the members of his agricultural
class, Norman Morgan, who, a few
weeks ago, was selected as one of the
seven outstanding young Tar Heel
Farmers in North Carolina.
Rev. G. R. Gillespie, who drove
160 miles from a point in Virginia
Monday in order to be present at th'e
club meeting, told of the attention
that the Forest City license tag on
his car had created. Mr. Gillespie told
of an amusing incident which occur
red a few days ago, while in Johnson j
City, Tenn., when an old negro man,
a former resident of Forest City, sat
for forty-five minutes on the curb
awaiting his return to the car in ortS-
