Cape Lookout Scene Of Lively Battle J (By Jimmie Guthrie) I don't know anything about the battleof Bull Run only what I read, but if the Battle of Cape Lookout which occuredearly and lasted late last Wednesday Night, did'nt beat 2 to 1 then T will hoist my White flag at-Sand give up the ship.

The Musicians who were John U. Rose, Thomas Rose, Ivey Scott and Jot Ros. could and always courteous ly entettained one and all who visit i that portion of the Eastern Shores of North Carolina uMng every kind of instrument from a pipe organ to an j o; . Hilary ten cent pan, until last Wednesday night when the boat that J belongs to the people of the State of j North Carolina, and called Capt. J. j A. Nel--n glided so leisurely along, the salt caked beach of Cape Look- ( out, and dropped her anchor inside the old Wreck Point where the turtle can be seen to rise with several inch- es of sticking mud on his back. Pos:-ib'y those mud Turtles a rose to catch the first glimpse of the occupants of this beautiful and well dressed ship of the state. I wonder if those turtles realiized the fact that the Red whiskey float- d g0 brisk,y above them we goon to cause a fuss and cuss and bruis ed faces, eye bones broken, women fainting and everthing, as it did. I do not know those men who were in the big yacht, therefore I call no names but if I did know them and heard what I have, were it my brother Mart I would tell the people , his name. The whiskey what g; ve so many black eyes was not H. B. Hunter as some may suppose, neither was it of the compass signal station boys, accrding to reliable reports it was of the big boat who, we would be glad, if they want another spree that they go to Ocra oke where the people do not fight while drinking. Of i oui se Capt John was not on the boat therefore did not have an acting part in this affray, Nevertheless it is an impossibility for the Governor of I this State to rid its people of this stuff if they continue taking several J gallons of it to them, as has been re- j ported, and as is the general talk. ! Many times have I been told those j w ho tell we the good and bad news, that those folks who visit on the State j Boat are nice gentlemen of high reputation, they are those who lead whilewe follow. But sure to God in the case of last week battle at Cape Lookout among the silent beautiful grass hills, where the roar of the white capped billows pass over the face of the visitor a lullaby, those brave men of State, if reports are true, made a road that I would not I like to walk. Those who did walk this road are now all beat up and have families who were thinking at the time their husbands and daddies were to get bread, clothes books and school supplies from them. Were this a club's yacht or any privite concern that has acted in this manner then we would be helpless, but if those boys did get poisonous drunk which caused all this trouble grief on board the Fish Com mission Doat, the boat tnat wa3 to : protect us, to be to every beck and call, then we as a people protest, as rightfully we should. Such men are only servants of the people supposed to be looking after the best interest of same. As sure as I live today, I thought ! that the Governor of each State had j instructions from the powers to clean , upthis stuff so far as was in his power. I was a big vote last time for you all better be careful. lTf te, f aU ebout t I 44iia fe a TJffTa a a T nan foil The boat can only be known among: (we people as the booze yacht Last Sunday night while Capt.
