On inquiring from one of the local policemen when he could catch a bus to Salisbury, he was interrupted by a tourist inquiring the way to that city. The policeman asked the tourist if he would not car ry Mr. Blackwelder who would show him the road. This \vas agreed to and Mr. Blackwelder vanished in a car with' a Tennessee licence. The fact that he did leave in a tourisfcis automobile gave rise to all sorts of strange rumors in Concord when it was learned that Mr. Black welder had disappeared. One man even went so far as to declare that be passed him on n road just at the North Caroliua-Teuuesaee line. Ilis family feared that he might have met with foul play. When he left the cjty there was in Ills pocket, only seventy dollars. He is one of the more prosperous fanners in the community but believed that would be sufficient to take h : m to Mo line and keep him till he had secured work. Going to Salisbury, he there pur chased a ticket direct to Moline by way of Chicago. Food was high on the train and so lie ate but little. However, when he reached his desti nation, he procured n good boarding place which gave good meals so he lived high while there. After a day’s stay in Moline, Mr. Blackwelder, in pursuance of his plan to see the west, went over to St. Louis where he remained a day. Then he retilfned to Moline where three days were spent in looking for work. The nearest he could come to getting a job was a promise of work on the week following but this seem ed too far away so he pulled out and went to Indianaiiolis. From Indian apolis he went on to St. Paul, where lie eventually ran out of money and wired home to relatives for money with which to return home. As Mr. Blackwelder took no bag gage, he had to purchase underwear and shirts as he traveled, and he also procured a small hangbag in which to carry the soiled ones. Leaving St. I*aul Monday night, he reached Salisbury in the middle of the afternoon and as there was no train till night, he rode n bus to Concord, daughter had been in the city looking for him but when he did not come in on the train, she went back home. As soon as he could get to a telephone, he called the home and told them to come get him. Tis grandson. Elba Faggart, a boy in his teens, reached his grandfather first. The two shook hands and Mr. Blackwelder said: “Hello Boy.” lie then resumed his conversation with the people gathered around. His daughter. Miss Vernie Blackwelder, next came up and they shook hands. “Well, pa,” she said, “aren’t you glad to get home?” “I don't know,” he repelied, “not so glad. I guess,” Later, the family was all seated on the porch of his home and the ‘con versation was only partially concern ed with Mr. Blackwelder’s trip. Mrs. Blackwelder told of her journey to Texas and Oklahoma. She was in terested. however, in learning about his food and water. He declared that the water was almost as good as it was at home except for the fact that it was “awful warm.” He just didn’t see how they could feed like they did for what they charged. Why. he said, he could get a square meal for 35 or 40 cents anywhere and it was just a plenty. They had chicken but he did not eat that because he want ed something lie didn’t get at home. Only odee did lie eat a drum-stick. On his trip, he was lost a number of times in the cities but it was easy to get right, he declared, because he would ask a policeman who was al ways nice about directing him. Ev erybody was friendly, said Mr. Black welder. and helped him on his trip. It seemed like he had known the people he met all his life, they were so nice. He wouldn’t live in any of the cit ies if he had a chnftce, he added. They were just too dirty aud crowd ed. And it was so easy to get lost. St. Paul was an old. dirty place, he said, in recalling incidents of his journey. Indianapolis was a clean place with wide streets aud he was only lost once. Had he not lost his nerve, he would have gone to New York. He had al ways wanted to go there -but he was just a little afraid to try to get there. Mrs. Blackwelder wanted to know if lie had enough money for the re turn trip. “I sent him .$3 more than lie asked for in his telegram,’’ she said. , She then told of how on the Sat urday afternoon when he left, she looked for him about dark but con cluded that he must have waited for some of the neighbors, who were re turning late. Once a car stopped at the foot of the hill and she thought he had come back. When he did' not come, she sent two of her children to look for him, thinking he might have lmd a stroke of apoplexy. When he failed to come back by morning, in quiries were begun and it was dis covered that he had disappeared. And all the time Mr. Blackwelder was gone, we were that worried, said she, that there was hardly a thing eaten. AH the. pies just had to be thrown away and the chicken would last #a couple of days. Mr. Blackwelder, on his part, said lie was feeling fine and declared that, as soon as he had a bath and put on clean clothes, lie would be all right. The Furr Reunion.
