WE WILL APPRECIATE YOURm%
BUSINESS WHETHER LARGE

Two men died aboutltbree years~ago, both leaving
considerable property. One had a will and
the other had not- .
Today, the family of the man Who left no will is
in needy circumstances, having lost their property by
bad investment and unwise management.
On the other hand, the widow and young ^n of
the man who made the will have more property tJian
ever, because of the safe and expert service of the
Trust Company which was named as Executor of the
will, ‘ _ . ■
This comparison tells its own story.
It is typical of conditions today everywhere,
it is of such common occurrence that people cease
to be impressed by it. i
_ HOW ABOUT YOU? ,
. If you love your wife and children you should, by all
itneans, throw around them that strong safe^^d. that
staunch friend of widow and orphan, —THE WILL—
and think! it will not cost you a penny!
When you appoint us as your executor, you may select
"iny lawyer you wish to draw your will and we will pay
his fees.
Better be safe than sorry.

FayetteviUe Bride Elopes.
Fayetteville, Aug. 2—D, W.
Woodall ran away with his broth
er’s pretty wife yesterday and
the brother, Frank Woodall today
published a legal notice that he
has applied for a divorce. Wood
all and his wife had been mar
ried but four months. Mrs. Wood
all is a daughter of J. B. Matt-,
hews, a butcher, of this place.
The elopement, which leaked
out to-day was partly by buggy
and partly by train, it is alleged.
The couple drove from here to
Lakewood, a flag station, a few
miles from Fayetteville and there
caught an Atlantic Coast Line
train. Nothing has been heard of
them since. The train they caught
was going towards Greensboro.
The divorce action is retuniable
at the October term of Cum
berland court.
Your discretion might look like
cowardice in another.
