is of the "missing link" variety.
The apple is of a reddish brown

Hicanoca as Name
For the New Park.
Mr. Gilbert Suggests New and
Striking Name.
To tlie Editor of the Democrat
I wish to suggest a name for
our new park, which is new and
unique. Besides being original
it smacks of Indian, in keeping
rith Catawba. In short it repre
sents the first in Hickory (HI),
first in Catawba (OA) and first
in North Carolina (NO CA)
HICANOCA, pronounced as its
several parts are pronounced in
the words from which they are
taken HI CA NO-CA and accen
ted on the first and third sylla
bles.
Some one may say this is not
patriotic and that it should have
the name of our distinguished
citizens, and the like: but who is
more patriotic than he or she who
who can truly say "This is my
own, my native land"? and if
Hicanoca does not stand for that,
what does?
Are you progressive? Have
we up-to-date ideas? Do we
want to flatter men by using
their names, when, no doubt, it
would not voice the sentiment of
the majority of our people? I
say no. Nor do we want such
common-place names as Fern
•'ell etc
' Call it HICANOCA P \RK, and
let everybody vote for it on July
4th. Then no one will have
cause to complain or feel slight
ed.
Of course the Civic League
wishes to raise that S3OOO, and it
is honed that Hicanoca Park will
be the magic words that will get
the money for them.
Yours for progress,
W. L. GILBERT.

IN MEMORIAM.
(Mr. Monroe Townsend.)
Monroe Townsend, son of Ja
cob and Cardine Townsend, was
born the 13th day of March, 185b
and died June 12th, 1911, aged 5o
years and three months. _
He was born of Christian b? 1
ents and brought up * n
of the Tennessee Synod. 1 here
fore his parents had him bap
tised in early infancy, In his
early youth he received his ch»t
echetical instruction, and having
acknowledged his baptismal vow
he was confirmed to the Evange
lical Lutheran church by the im
position of hands and prayer on
the 26th day of November, 1871
by Rev. C. Moretye, pastor of the
Evangelical Lutheran church,
n this faith he lived a faithlul
member to his death.
He was born and died in Watau
ga county in which he knew no
enemies. He stayed with his
mother till he was 19 years of
age. His mother says he was a
dutiful and loving t>on.
At the above age he came to
Catawba county and was joined
in holy wedlock to Diana C. Hol
ler in 1876 in which union he
lived a kind, faithful and loving
husband to. his death. There
now lives to morn his absense a
wife, mother, step-father, 3
brothers and 5 sisters with many
other relatives and friends.
He strived to live obedient
to God through all; temptations.
He fought sin on every hand
with a soldiers bravery. He
loved peace with all men, met all
with a hearty greeting and a
joke for all, large or small. If
he had a foe he knew it not.
He often expressed to his wife
readiness to die when God saw
fit to call him out of his misery
on earth to his other home in
the mansions on high.
The evening of his death just
before retirring for the night he
discussed of the doctrine of the
Church and asked his wife to re
main faithful in her faith in God;
then spoke of his pastor and of
the able sermons he delivered on
Sunday evening at Mt. Olive
church and how he hoped those
reckless young men would heed
to his kind warning and take
hold of the mighty truths set
forth them and £ght voliantly
for the blessed reward promissed
to all who will come. And now
here we will say adieu to this
dear one of whom we have no
fear but that he is witn his God
in peace. This by,
His dearest friend.
