Written for The Democrat, John Wilfong was born in what, L S J?? W Cajawla county, April 8. Im2 and died June 18,1833, He was a soldier in the war of the Revolution. He was a lover of his country and was loved and respected by all who knew him. He was a son of pioneer George Wilfong and lived where his father lived. His wife Hannah Sigmon Wilfong died 1834 March 22nd. Age 66 years and nine months. John Wilfong was in the battle of Kings Mountain where he was wounded. He received a seyere wound in his right arm and car ried that scar to his grave. He afterwards became a great man io wealth, popularity and good deeds. He never sought political office notwithstanding he was chosen elector on the Van Buren ticket and was made chairman of the college, where the great Nathaniel Macon was his colleagne, to cast the vote of that body. He is honored on the Guilford battle ground by that patriotic company, A beautiful lake on that sacred spot is named in his honor "Wilfong Lake," John Wilfong, Daniel Whitener, John Dellinger and others fought under Major Joe McDowell in the Burke and Rutherford Regi ment in the King's Mountain battle. All the territory of Ca tawba county then belonged to j Burke county as far ?outh as Earl i Granville's line, for that was the j dividing line, at thst time be : tween Burke and Tryon counties. John Wilfong was discharged ! from the army near Wiikesboro and left the army for home. He crossed the Catawba river near j the Island Ford. He came to the house of Captain Panzle Sig mon who lived on Lyles creek ! about six miles from the river. He was exhausted from traveling ' and was suffering from his wound. He stopped to get a drink of water. Captain Sigmon called his daughter Hannah to bring the young man some water irom the spring. She soon brought the water. She was sixteen years of age. He stayed and rested all night. He left next morning. After the war was over they became husband and wife. They raised a large and respectable family of chil dren. They acquired a large amount of property. They are buried at St. Pauls church in what is now Catawba county. This church was built when the pioneer settlers same to the South Fork country. It is one of the churches in western North Carolina. The home of John Wilfong was on the east side of the South Fork of Catawba river. His home was in what is now Cataw j ba county. J. 11. SHUFORD, Kings Creek, N. C. The Late Proctor Knott. Savoyard's Estimate. The second time I saw him was at a circuit court in Adair county. : Spencer Dabney was there, and 0, the rolicking fun they did make! It was not wit that has a virus to do it and stings, and cauterizes, but it was the very unction of humor, that captures even the victim of it. There was as much difference between Proctor Knott and Tom Reed as there is between acid and ointment. Reed irritated; Knott soothed. The weakness of Knott was in his very opulence. I know of lcne in public life at this time, miess it be Martin Littleton, vho approaches him in copious ness of vocabulary. What a dif ference there was in the speech of Carlisle and that of Knott! One was arctic, the other tropic. It would be impossible to expur gate one of Carlisle's speeches; I it. would be cruel to emasculate one of Knott's. Knott was the ! tulip, splendid and gorgeous; Carlisle was the violet, simple . and odorless. Knott's English is beauty, Charlisle's is strength. Dull. An Englishwoman with a ser vicable sense of humor was she who is mentioned in a recent English bock as having aided her husband in fighting "a good fight" The two were found one day, in their old age, by a caller, sit ting one on each side of the fire, and the old man said proudly: "WehV missis and me, we've been married nigh on fiftv year, and we've never had one quar rel." The old woman looked up at the visitor with a twinkle in her eye. "It war conscientious," said she. "butvarie dool." Escaped with His Life. "Twenty-one years ago I faced an awful death," writes, H. B. Martin, Port Harreleson, S. C. "Doctors said I had consumption and the dreadful cough I had looked like it, sure enough. I tried everything, I could hear of, for ray cough, and was under treatment of the best doctor in Georgetown, S. C. for a year, but could get no ielief. A friend advised me to try Dr. King's New Discovery. I did so, and was completely cured. I feel that I owe my life to this great throat cure. "Its positively guaranteed for coughs, colds, and all bronchial aSections. 50c & $l.OO. Trial bottle free at C. M. Shuford, Moser& Lutz and Grimes Drug store. COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOu jj COUNTY NEWS. °j OOOOODOOO XXXSOOOOOOOUGOOCO Enterpiise. Everybody will sympathise with the farmers on Jacob's Fork where the crops were de stroyed by hail last week. The farmers to suffer most were D. H, Shuford, Jay Wilfong and the Dellingers. Mr. Ralph Eolick, wh-> was pardoned by Govenor Kitchin last week, returned home last Friday night from Gaston coun ty. Just a year ago he was sen tenced to two years to the Gas ten roads for shooting the two Gilberts. His pardon saved him one year. Peaches are curiosities in New ton this year. Mr. Philip Cline of St. Paul's section had several baskets full or fine Carmens here Tuesday, about a bushel in all, and they attracted much atten tion and sold readily at 20 cents a dozen. They were the first peaches we have seen this year. Newton News. The 84th anniversary of Mrs. Rhoda Cline, mother of Mr. ! Gilbert Cline of Nawton, will be celebrated at the old cline home stead next Wednesday tie 19th. Tuesday Mr. Dayid Moose, the aged father of Mr. T. R. Moose of Newton, was stricken with paralysis at his home in Alexander county. Kill More Than Wild Beasts. The number of people killed yearly by wild beasts don't approach the vast number killed by disease germs. No life is safe from their attacks. They're in air, water dust, even food. But grand protection is afforded by Electric Bitters, which destroy and expel these deadly disease germs from the system. That's why chills, fever and ague, all malaria and many blood diseases yield j promptly to this wonderful blood puri : fier. Try them, and enjoy the glori : ous health and new strength they'll j give you. Money back, if not satisfied. ! Only 50c at C. M. Shuford, Moser & ; Lutz and Grimes Drug store. I Mr. M. O. Sherrill's War Story. ! Raleigh Times. - "A Soldier's Story of Prison Life," by Miles 0. Sherrill, is an I interesting little pamphlet that has just been issued from the press. The story is on account of Mr. Sherrill's own experi i ence in a northern prison. It is an interesting side light on the | great struggle. Young people | especially will find it valuable in helping them to understand the conditions of that time and to appreciate more fully the heroic services Mr. Sherrill and his comrades gave so freely and with so great sacrifice to their country. The pamphlet is on sale at the bookstores or can be had of Mr. Sherrill for ten cents a copy. The Cause of Eczema is green life that burrows under and feeds on the skin. The way to cure 1 Eczema is to remove the cause by washing away with a clean, penetrating liquid, the germ life and poisons that causes the trouble. We have a preparation that will do this. The first application will stop the itching and give prompt relief to ;an irritated, itching or inflamed skin, j If vou are a sufferer from skin or scalp eruption in any form, try one bottle of | this clean scientific preparation, we are confident will be pleased with | the results from the use of this stand -1 ard preparation for eczema.

An Outside Interest The home woman is the indis peiisabk- wurr.:i.i. It has been wisely rem rned that we coul t do without the women who have made careers for themselves in all other directions; but without ihe home woman we should have to shut up shop at once. The home maker is the absolutely neccesspr.y element, the woman the world cannot do without. It is a pity, therefore that the home woman allows herself, so often, to fail of her full development and rewards She is apt to be so unselfish a». 1 so conscientious that she lets i.Ne four walls ot nome narrow about her. The "household" woman, as she has been called, does not get enough exercise every day, nor does she breath enough of the outside air of thoughts and action to refresh her spirit. The simplest remedy is that of at least one outside in terest. The woman who takes up one hobby, one charity, one line of work beyond the house nold cares, and follows it steadily will find that it brings freshness and power with it. It becomes both outlook and inflow to her. The study and collection of old china, reading up a special sub ject, making a garden, any one of these, if pursued throughly, will bring her in touch with oth ers and open vistas of intrest un endingly. And the woman with a hobby grows old so slowly that she often never grows old at all, but keeps to the last that fresh ness of interest which is the mark of youth.—Harper's Bazar.
