An Interesting Letter From Miss
: Flora Creech, Telling of tiw Splen
did Time She and Her Party Are
.Having m Their European Tour.
Miss Flora Creech, . who won The
Evening Times European ' contest.
and who, with Mrs; Horace Do well,
is now . enjoying : the pleasures of
travel in the Old World, writes most
interestingly of her trip.
The letter is of a personal nature,
but her many friends will be glad to
hear from her, , so we publish it,
She writes from' London, July 10.
Her letter follows:
Letter From Miss Creech.
Dear Mr. Sims: '
This is really the first opportunity
I ve ad of writing you since I be
gan this delightful tour. Now it is
Sunday evening, and I'm quite weary
from "seeing and going" so much all
day, so fear I cannot give you as full
an account as I otherwise would, but
we had so much mapped but for to
morrow I shall not defer It longer.
To begin with, we had a beautiful
trip from New York to Montreal. We
left New York at 9:30 a. m., on a
through train, and reached Montreal
by 4:30 p. m. The scenery along the
Hudson and on the edge of Lake
Champlaln was beautiful beyond de
scription and the approach to Mon
treal, just after sunset, was more
than grand. We went direct to the
Windsor Hotel (which, by the way,
is one of the best I've ever seen) and
remained until Wednesday night,
when we boarded the steamer Ionian
of the Allan Line, for our European
tour. '
While in Montreal we visited the
large stores and took a ride to Mount
Royal; . also visited Notre Dame
church (one of the most beautiful
edifices inside I ever saw) and later
St. Mark's Cathedral, which I under
stand is similar to St. Peter's in
Rome, only on a smaller scale.
We found Montreal full of tour
ists, most of whom were going in Dr.
Pratt's parties. We met several of
the conductors at the hotel and
many pleasant people who were going
over on our steamer. Most of the
parties were from- western states:
Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa,
Colorado, California, and some from
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania; a
lady from Kentucky, a ' gentleman
from Tennessee, and Mrs. Dowell
and myself composed the band of
southerners.'
We boarded the steamer on Wed'
nesday night and sailed next morning
(the 3 Oth J for Glasgow. It was very
exciting after we got on the steamer
and took quite awhile to v get us
straightened out. . The next morning
we were up early and out on deck
and I think everybody was in a good
humor and fine spirits. The officers
of the boat were all most courteous
and accommodating and we had
very gallant captain named Castaway.
ihe menu each day was all that
could be desired and I think everyone
am justice to about five meals a day
For three days we were on the beau
tiful St. Lawrence, and I don't be
lieve any route In the -world can be
so lovely as the one we took to Glas-
gow. ' The sunsets were gorgeous be
yond description, and up to Saturday
night when we struck the ocean, no
sailing could have been smoother.
Saturday It was bitterly cold, but we
braved the weather and sat on deck
to watch the beautiful scenery. We
were wrapped In our steamer rugs
and coats and it did not seem one bit
like July.
On Saturday we passed the coasts
of New Foundland and Labrador and
saw a huge iceberg, something like
400 feet, and my! It looked cold but
we were so glad to have an oppor
tunity of seeing one.
The officers of the boat said it had
been many years since they had seen
one so large. -
After we passed Belle Isle and got
into the ocean we began to miss a
few of the passengers, for that well
known malady,' "sea-sickness" got
hold of them. But nobody was serl
ously sick, and altogether the voy
age was a most delightful experience.
We formed many pleasant friend
ships and hated the parting of ways.
Ours is "Tour C", which includes
England, Holland, Germany, the
Rhine, Switzerland, Italy, Munich,
Oberaumergau (Wednesday, August
3d), France, and Port of Wales. We
are divided up in parties of about 20
each, and our conductor is Dr. Hub
bard, a most polished gentleman and
quite a scholar. He studied in Lon
don two years, then.- occupied the
chair of .history in some university
for awhile, and has been conducting
parties for several years.
On Thursday, about noon, we saw
"land", and .there was great rejoic
ing aa the rugged coast of old Ire
land came In view. The twilight was
so long as we heared Scotland it was
nearly 10 o'clock before it grew dark.
We sat on deck every 'minute possible,
sometimes with a hot-water bottle at
oar feet, for it was very cold after the
first three days. -
During the voyage several enter
tainments were given and Mrs. Dow
ell was In demand, (or. all, enjoyed
"hearing her sing.
The toarth. of . July wai very-cow.
bat there were celebrations of vari
ous kinds appropriate for the day,
and at night quite a display of fire
works.
' - The Marconi operator,- or -"wireless
man", as we called him, was kept
busy sending and receiving messages,
and', was one of the most popular
"officers" on the boat since he was
"single and good-looking". He is
native of South Africa, by the. way
and his father took part in the Boer
war.
' We landed in Glasgow Thursday
night, but did not get off the boat
until Friday morning. We had early
breakfast and all was excitement
until our "luggage" was inspected
-by the customs officer. We had
a ride through . Glasgow on
"Brakes" and took a special train for
London about 2:30 p. m. It was the
most comfortable traveling I ever ex
perienced and was almost like a fly-
ing machine, .for some times we went
at the rate of "80 miles an hour"
but they had such splendid road-beds
(I believe that Is what you call
them).. Dr. Pratt chartered this train
for his party (about 200 I should
say), and. we had a dining .car at
tached. They served a very elab
orate dinner about 7:00 o'clock and
I think we sat at. tables fully two
hours.
Scotland is truly a beautiful coun
try : and we enjoyed immensely the
views of old castles, private .homes,
thatch roofed cottages and the lovely
farming lands with mountains In
the back-ground. :
We did not make many stops, but
passed through Dumfries, Gretna
Green, Leicester, Carlisle, LeedB,
Sheffield, etc.
It was midnight when we arrived
in London, ant our parties divided
up, going to different hotels. It was
hard to realize we were really here,
but the scene at the station looked a
little out of the ordinary.
The next morning, Saturday, we
visited the British Museum, and I got
so interested I felt as If I would -like
to spend weeks there. It is truly-the
centre of learning for the whole
world. We spent an entire morning
there and I was loath to leave even
for lunch. Among the Interesting
things was a letter from Sir Walter
Raleigh that I intend to copy and
bring home with me. In the after
noon we took a ride around the city
saw Buckingham Palace, where the
king died, Marlborough House, the
American embassy, parliament build
ings, etc. That night a few of us
went to the Royal Opera House to
see grand opera, and heard "Tetraz
zimi" the great Italian singer, in the
opera "The Huguenots".
She was wonderful, and the stage
setting and costumes were, most for-
geous. There were about 400 on the
stage and the ladies in court dress
were most imposing. The box occu
pied by the king and queen, of course,
was vacant, but there were - some
dukes and duchesses present, and
could at least look across at their
jewels. , We could get standing room
only, but a kind old Englishman and
his wife seemingly took a fancy to
Mrs. Dowell and me (noticing our
enthusiasm,-1 suppose), and shared
their seats with us. Everybody Is so
good to us I hardly know what to say,
but-1 try to show my appreciation in
every way that I can.
Today, Sunday, we had late break'
fast and then went to St. Paul's Ca-
thederal, where we fortunately ran
across one of our Raleigh girls, Miss
Ruth Hughes, who Is touring Europe
with another party.
This afternoon we went to West
minster Abbey, and tonight to the
City Temple, where we heard Dr.
Campbell, the noted minister. We
also took in Hyde Park his afternoon,
so you see how hard it is to write
letters for we are on the "go" con
tinually. ' ,
Tomorrow we visit the Tower,
Houses of Parliament, etc. We leave
Tuesday night for Holland, but will
stop here on our return to Liverpool,
from which place we sail home.
Many Interesting things have hap
pened that I do not know how to put
down on paper, but I have tried as
fully as I can to give you the details
of our trip so far. I shall let you
hear from us by card anyway, as
often as I can, and if there is any
thing of Interest in this letter that
you care to publish or tell our friends,
you are at liberty to do so. -
I am very grateful to you and all
my good, friends in Raleigh for mak
ing it possible for me to come, and I
thank you for your efforts in trying
to arrange a nice trip for us. I am
having the time of my life and" shall
ever feel thankful for the lovely tour
of Europe I am now having, and ex
pect to have until the end.
Though quite a distance from
home my thoughts are often with my
dear friends left -behind, and I just
wish all could share It with me.
With kind regards to- Mrs. Sims,
also Mr. Morris and yourself, I am, ;
Very sincerely, ; '
- FLORA E. CREECH.
P. S.r forgot a very Important
item: On Saturday afternoon while
out riding we saw a suffragist meet
ing In Iravalgae Square, and we at
once got ' out and mixed with -. the
crowd. It was quite an enthusiastic
meeting and, both men and omen
were speaking. They were carrying
long white poles with branches of
green attached, tied wit red ribbon
(their colors and presented as with
one, but we didn't have the courage
to ride through London aa members
of the band of ''voters", but it; was
very, very exciting. It was a national
meeting and very largely attended.

While in the city Judge A. W. Gra
ham, of Oxford, expressed himself as
well pleased with the chances of Gen.
B. S. Royster, who is a candidate for
the congressional nomination in the
fifth district. He says he is sure the
general wtll win the nomination. He
classes as absurd the idea that Dur
ham and Granville are at outs ami
says he feels sure this county will
give loyal support to the Granville
candidate. . He thinks Durham will
give Royster a majority of her vote
and says the reports that have gone
forth over the district about this
county, which say that Royster would
be chucked over by the Durham dele
gation are false.
Durham Health Conditions.
The attention of the board oi
health has been called to two frog
ponds in the heart of the, down tovn
business district, which are the breed.
ing place of mosquitoes and malaria.
These ponds are located behind a, bill
board on Main street, not a hundred
feet from the tuberculosis exhibition
and on East Chapel Hill street. A
number of other unsanitary spots
about the city have been pointed out
and the board of. health and the
health officer are asked to clean thorn
out. Although no one is accused ot
being neglectful in his duty, condi
tions here are far from ideal and the
death rate Is alarmingly high.
Pleased the Conference.
News ' comes from. Pelham, where
the Durham District Methodist Con
ference was held, that Dr. . Kllgo
charmed everybody by the manner in
which he presided over the confer
ence. Dr. Kiigo'B address on evan
gelism is classed as being superb and
in ' the , words of a lay member,
"Touched all phases of evangelical
work." The discussion on Epworf.h
League was lead by. Rev. W. P. Con
stable, of this city. , Rev. Mr. Con
stable is enthusiastic in league work.
The league in West Durham, under
his guidance, has grown steadily and
rapidly. Durham was well represent
ed at the conference. Mr. H. N. Snow
gave valuable sugestlhns in regard to
Sunday school work and Rev. R. (J.
Beaman made a strong talk on "The
Tower of the Holy Spirit"
Typewriter Exchange Bankrupt.
Another Durham concern went Jo
the wall when Judge J. C. Biggs sign
ed an order appointing Attorney J. K,
Pegram receiver for; the ' Durham
Typewriter Exchange Company. The
company has been , doing ; business
about a year but owing to heavy ex
penses It was not found to be profit
able to continue. The assignment U
voluntary and the officers requested
that a receiver be appointed. . The pfT

in company with his niece. Miss Lola

was hot running the ear but Mr. H.
C. Goode, of Connelly Springs, who
Is also the owner , of aa automobile,
was at the wheel, he and Mr. Aber
nethy being on the, front seat.
' The party had gone about six miles
in the direction of Friendship, when
the automobile, which was going at
a rate of pe reaps orty miles an nour.
skidded In a long sandy stretch and
became unmanageable. The machine
swerved quickly tothe .right, took a
'sudden , lurch Into the opposite direc
tion and shot over a bridge across a
ditch about ten feet wide and as deep,
throwing the front part of the ma
chine into the ba'hkV while the rear
trucks stuck ub almost' straight. 1'he
entire party were thrown with a ter
rifle force out of the automobile. Mr.
Aoernethy turning a somersault in
tne air and landing clear over an ap
ple tree in an old corn field. He
turned in time to catch 1iis niece,
Miss Lasley, who was. thrown in the
same direction fro mthe rear seat of
the machine. The two Goodes wei.t
fifty feet in an opposite direction and
fell n a heap with Miss Riggs hurled
between them. : 1 :
Miraculously no one was hurt ex
cept from the severe shock. The ma
chine was prized .out on skids and. set
in shape and the party returned home
apparently as happy , as when thny
started. Every one in the party de
nied anything had happened, but this,
morning a promiscuous appearance
of black eyes and bruises revealed
the truth. The car was unhurt.
