We deeply regret to announce the
death of this gentleman which took
place at his home in Charlotte on Sat

Judge Shipp has filled several posi

was elected Attorney General of
North Carolina. In 1881, he was ap
pointed by Governor Jarvis as Judge
of the Superior court, to fill the va
cancy caused by the resignation of
Judge Bchencit, and has been on the
bench ever since. His loss will be
deeply felt both as an official and a
citizen.
