RUTHERFORDTON, N. C.
three unmasked men had held him
up on the mills gap road and re- ■
lieved him of the money.
In his confession Downey told of- i
ficers he had given the money to ■
Alex Ballenger, negro, who is also :
held in jail, to hide for him. \
Little credence is given his state- \
ment connecting Ballenger with the i
affair and officers expressed the!
belief that Downey concealed the
money himself. ■
Under constant grilling which
continued throughout the greater
part of Wednesday night, and which
was resumed Thursday morning,;
Sheriff N. L. Bennett succeeded in
exacting the confession.
He said he had been pondering
the scheme for a long time and only
Wednesday was he able to summon
courage enough to put it into effect.
He arranged with Ballenger, he said,
to take the money and hide it un
til the affair had "blown over,"
when they would divide it.
Downey had been employed by
the mills for several months. Lately
he had been engaged as truck driv
er and made regular trips to this
city from Fingerville to get sup
plies.
Wednesday he was sent to town
for a load of feed and mill officials
who had frequently entrusted hirn
with the payroll sent in the regular
checks.
He secured the money at the Cen
tral National bank and at the ap
pointed place in the road leading
to Fingerville, he was met by Bal
lenger, officers said he confessed.
Downey is a native of Rutherford
| county.

A TRIBUTE TO MRS. LONG
i !
j On December 1, Adams' Missionary
circle had to give up one of its best
members, Mrs. J. B. Long. # She had
been in failing health for eighteen
months or more. She attended every
meeting of the circle as long as she
was able.
j She was a great Bible reader and
! church goer, was good among the
sick and when she went she knew
what to do.
The chairman of her circle gave
each member a quarter in January to
be used as "talent" money and to
be taken up in December. The last
work she did was making handker
' chiefs to sell for her talent box
and when it was opened it contained
' ten dollars.
! We will miss her but our loss is
; Heaven's gain.
j May God's richest blessings rest on
' the feeble husband and the five chil
' i dren is our desire.
