At a distance of eight miles from Ruth erfordton, the cemetery of Brittain church is situated, and perhaps there are comparatively few of the people of our county who are aware of the fact that it is probably one of the oldest and largest of the country graveyards in the west- ern portion oi ims oiaie: certainly there are none other in this county to compare with it in point of age and size. And it is not only the oldest and largest, but it is also the most historic grave yard in our county as well ; it having been used for a burying ground by the soldiers of the revolution. The country church of Brittian, which is Presbyterian, was founded or organized early in the year of 1768, and it enjoys the distinction of being one of the eleven Presbyterian churches found ed before the beginning of the eighteenth century ; and m regard to age, it occu pies the fifth position in the list of the of the older churches. Since the organ ization of the church was accomplished in 1T08, it is reasonable to suppose that the cemetery was laid of at the same time, although we have no record of pnv craves having been made there at j that pariod. If there were any made dnrimr the first twelve years after the : organization of the church, they are not j marked by any inscriptions, and they j are either lost or else they have only ! small stones to show where the gaaves have been. The first two graves in tlie cemetery of which we have any definite and certain knowledge, are those of an officer and a private in the army of the revolution These two soldiers having belonged to the regiment of Coloned Campbell of Virginia, and having fought and defeated Furgerson, the brave Brit ish commander, at the famous battle of King's Mountain where they each re ceived a mortal wound, were brougnt back to Brittain, and in a little log hut, iu plain view of the cemetery, they died. They were buried side by side, the pri vate having no epitaph above him ; the officer having upon a common, granite stone of small size, the following inscrip tion, which perhaps the hand, of some loving friend had chiselled. For one hundred r.nd twenty years, a century and one fifth, the roughly hewn rock has withstood the ravaging and disinte grating influences of time, but: it still marks the grave of a soldier, and those who go there to day may read : "Leiutenant Thomas McCullock, be longing to Col. Campbell's regiment of Va.. in and for the honorable, just and righteous cause of liberty, at the defeat ing of Col. Furgerson with his famous company at the battle of King's.: Moun tain. October 7th 1780." . Among others of revolutionary times who were buried .there are: General John Carson, and Maj. George "Watson the hist of whom is the great-grandfather of our Clerk of the Court, M. O. Oickerson. Also William Watson, the' great-grandfather of Capt. James An drews ; Capt. John Watson of the revo tution, and his wife Mary ; the great grandfather of Mr. J. F. Flack; and many others too numerous to mention. There should be a nice stone erected to the memory of the two soldiers hur ried there, and the little granite st one should be preserved as a souvenir of those time3 in which our forefathers struggled to relieve themselves of the yoke of British oppression. AN AGED MAN DEAD. The Rutherfordton Dramatic Club Cancel Engagement on Account of the Weather Other News. Correspondent, The Tribune. I Cakoleen N. C, January 14, 1901. Mr. Howard Haywood, a well-known and popular salesman of the Caroleen Company Store, left Sunday for his home in Raleigh. He will be absent for several weeks. The "Col', has the uni versal wishes of the town for a good time. Miss Lucy Mallard left for Clairmont College last week, where she is doing some good work. Miss Annie Lyttou, who is taking a commercial course at Clairmont, will leave this week. Mr T. P. Reynolds, ot Caroleen, our jollv, big-hearted and popular book keeper, has assumed a most important air recently, and with much dignity speaks of the plans of "Reynolds and Sou." A number of nice new books have been added to the Caroleen School Libraty. They were purchased with the proceeds of the Christmas entertainment. 'Tis a worthy enterprise. May it prosper. Mr. and Mrs. Hemiessa have gone to house-keeping. They have the house overlooking the river, opposite Mr. S. B. MOORESBORO ITEMS. Tanner's. Mr. Hemiessa says there is A Short Sketch of His Life--His Survivors. Ex-Sheriff, Andrew R. Long, one of the most prominent and oldest citizens of Rutherford county, died at his home near Brittain on the moraintr of January 11th, at 3 o'clock. His iLbxess v,as .very short, and up to the time ol bit- 3ato sick ness, his health hud :uw;vvs rye n . good and remamedroiimpairwl, notwithstand ing the fact that- he was a vry old man. A. B. Long, Sr., wus born at the old homestead, v. here he died, on Novem ber 18th, more than 92 years ago. His record is that of a good and substantial citizen of the county, and forty or more years ago he played an active and prom inent part in its politics ; his opponent, Ex-Sheriff Martin Walker, now deceas ed. From 1846 until 185G, he was depu ty sheriff, and during the time from 1856 to 1SG0, he was twice chosen to the po sition of high sheriff of Rutherford county. Mr. Long was twice married ; his first wife was a Miss Andrews, the daughter of Benjamin Andrews, Esq., and the ceremony was performed on March oth) 1833. The children of this marriage are Mrs. Frank Logan, of Texas ; B. F. Long, of California ; and Mrs. Lou Deck, of this county, all of whom survive. The second time, he was married to UNSOUGHT ADVICE. nothing like having your own house, i the widow Long, and the surviving and he looks unusually happy. Mr. and Mrs. John Sndth were in Rutherfordton the latter part of the week. Mr. Zeno Wall filled Mr. Smiths' place during his absence. Mr. Taylor, the outside boss, is super-, intending some much needed work on the streets and is laying off sidewalks. 'Tis quite an improvement. On account of the inclemency of the weather on last Friday, the Dramatic Clab of Katherfordton could not fill their engagement here, and the people of Caroieen were very much disappoint ed. We regret that the club cannot give us an entertainment at a later date. Had the weather been good, there would have been a full house, for the play was widely advertised and had been looked forward to with much pleasure. children of this marriage are Mrs. Brack ett. of New Mexico; W. L. Long, of Charlotte; and Mrs. Joe Logan, Ex Sheriff G. W. Long, J. A. Long and L. L. Long, of this county. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Morrison, in the church at Brittain, on Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. There was quite a large caowd gathered in the church, and those who could not find seats within, stood about the windows and the doors listening to the tale of a long life, as the minister touchingly told it. After the services, the body was layed to rest in cemetery behind the church. A Telephone Company Organized New Church to be Built. Correspondent of The Tribune. Mooresboro, N. C, Jan. 14. 1901.

It says that his private benefactions were as incessant as were tlie demands nnon his liberality but that his greatest gift to the community was the Armour Institute of Technolo- ! srv. "into which he poured money like I water from an exhaustless well, and over i whoso infection and development he hovejed with parental love and solid- , tude, live to honor his name and carry : its mission of instruction in useful avo i cations on to future generations when jits founder's other claims to remem j brance have faded from memory."

No century can begin on Wednesday, Friday or Sunday. The same calendars can be used every twenty years. October always begins on the ! same day of the week as January, April ' but Congress would not have it. as July, September as December. Feb- gress insisted that there must be com ruary, March ami November begin on j petition, and then the railroads were the same days. May, June and August ; driven into consolidation. always begin on different days from But we believe that this consolidation 1 each other and every other month in the : will be to the public interest. The rail Christmas day and the first ot ( roads ot the country are ges of pooling their earnings. Quite true. Congress always makes a mess of it when it attempts to interfere with the natural laws of trade. The rail roads of the country were wrecked by cut-throat competition They hauled freight at less than the cost of transpor tation, and they went from bad to worse until most of them went into receivers' hands. By and by the managers of these roads agreed among themselves ' that the sensible thing to do was to pool, Con- salaries that would once have been fort unes; the half -competent who find pro fitable employment in hubordinate posi tions and are saved from going into bus iness for themselves and failing, as they would have failed under the old system ; and the incompetent who sit on the park benches as they have done lofore. Thiv country is so big and its trade is becom ing so vast that tig concerns are needed to handle it. No collection of small manufacturers without a common pur nose, except, to fight one another, could hone to handle such a business It requires consolidation, organization and heads callable of handling armies of t i.,,-- ;,wV..:,v..-;r the Ansel lea tne nir-n.
