Hole Made by Crutch
Fowler, who has only one leg, explained
how a hole was made in ?
the window glass back of the driv- j

me to a car where four men were
and they turned me loose."
Fowler said he lived at the Loray
Mill strikers tent colony for
four weeks but had moved. <

TY OF WARREN, N. C., FRI
Five Old Soldiers
Present At Dinner
Given By U. D. C.
Only five of the many who composed
the valiant army that marched
out to fife and drum for battle
in the defense of State's rights and
the land they loved in 1861-65, met
in the quiet and peace of the Parish
house of Emmanuel church here
on Wednesday for the annual dinner
given by the Daughters of the
Confederacy. They were welcomed
by the Rev. Dr. J. T. Gibbs, their
pulse quickened by martial music
played by Mrs. Hannah B. Arrington
and Miss Ida Allen, and their
physical comforts well looked to by
the members of the chapter who
served an excellent dinner in the
basement of the parish house.
Then they commenced reminiscing.
Veteran Mustian called the
t roil of his company from memory,
* and he was the only one to answer
2 present. He told, after the ladies
5 urgea mm to iurtner remarKS, 01
- a Yankee shell landing in the
midst 01 a trench with the fuse
burning. "A fellow hopped up,
grabbed :t and threw it out."
There was a pause of appreciation
for the story, well told.
Uncle Charlie Riggan of Vaughan,
seated between two ladies, com3
mented aloud, "That was a brave
trick."
r Veteran John W. Williams in
v answer to the request from the
'' toastmistress, Mrs. Paul B. Bell,
gave a story or two from the pages
of the past.
t
"I was in a trench one day when
one of these shells came over. It
g was fired by the Yankees and came
over in an arch?which he indicated
with his hands and arms?and
it had a tail of fire two feet long.
. I knew it was going to hit me and
g I couldn't move. It missed me by
1 about two feet, tore down the paray
pet, covered me in dirt, and I fin.
ally dug out. Here I stand today
B as a moument to God's mercy."
Veteran Joe Shearin of Sixpound
e after repeated urging took the
floor. Charlie Riggan wouldn't,
i He told of .the Crate^ about
; Petersburg. The Yankees had fine
- machinery and a branch to take
; away their dirt, he remarked. We
; had the top of the hill, giving us
; control, but we had to trundle our
-1 dirt out with wheelbarrows. "We
i, knew that they were mining and
- they knew that we were," he said.
I Their mine didn't go off as they
had planned, but went off later
'? while we were changing the men in
' the front trenches. It blew a hole
in the ground 90 by 60 feet and 30
feet deep. "I was one who escaped,"
he commented," and while I
didn't get buried in the dirt," he
r commented to Brother Mustian, "I
had 24,000 pounds of powder un.
der me."
s He won general applause. John
s W. Allen, veteran of the calvary,
_ commented that he had never failr
ed to carry out an order while in
s the army and told briefly of get?,
ting water for the men during a hot
engagement when the bullets were
.1 breezing by like hornets. "I don't
, know how they missed me," he re
marked. "The water came from
the bottom of a gulley where I
e knew that hogs had been but it
- was clear on top and all the boys
0 were glad when I got back with
s their canteens."
Pour of the six surviving veterans
were present. Austen Allen
and J. R. Falkener of Sandy Creek
were not there.
In welcoming the veterans, wives
and widows, the Rev. Dr. Gibbs
said that "character, intelligence

DAY, SEPTEMP^R 27, 192!
MACON TO DIE IN
CHAIR ON NOV. 1
Judge Small Pronounces Sentence
Of Death On The
Slayer Of Sam Pinnell
DELIVERED IN RALEIGH
Death is the penalty that the
State of North Carolina is to exact
from John Macon, slayer of Sam
Pinnell, and unless there is a stay
of execution, the switch is to be
thrown on All Saints Day, Friday,
November 1. The jury returned a
verdict of first degree last Satur
day just before 1 ociock alter an
hour and a half deliberation.
Judge Small passed sentence when
court reconvened at 2 o'clock, and
the negro was given into the custody
of the sherifi with instructions
to deliver him to the warden of the
State Penitentiary.
A few minutes later, the papers
all complete, Macon moved from
the court room with Deputies
Thomas Ellington and R. O.
Snipes. They were joined by Faulk
Alston and the trio moved away
for a rapid and uneventful trip to
Raleigh.
"It is hard for the court to pass
sentence upon you and it was hard
for the jury to place this penalty
upon you," Judge Small said, "but
the evidence has been heard and
you are found guilty." In closing the
commitment of John Macon to the
warden of the State Penitentiary,
the Judge said, "May God give you
just deliverance."
The crowd, sua tense, reiaxea
when the prisoner left the court
room. Solicitor Parker arose to
pay his respects to Coroner E. Hunter
Pinnell, brother of the slain
man, and Walter Mustian, both of
whom were present at the fatal
shooting and who captured the
negro. The fine restraint and respect
for law shown on this occasion
was commended by both the
solicitor and Judge. Joseph Pippen,
attorney with Gilmer Overby,
appointed by the court, had previously
commended the fairness of
the trial and the general demeanor
of the principals and the people of
the county.
"Without respect for the law and
officers we can have no government,"
the Judge said. "I want to
commend the officers of the court
and the citizens for their attitude
cf restraint toward the defendant."
He also thanked Macon's attorneys
for the manner in which they
had looked to his interests.
Macon, a negro of about 38, was
arrested in Warren county on the
mcrning of May 3rd after he had
fatally wounded Sam Pinnell and
shot Robert Pinnell, a brother. Officers
had gone to the home of
Baldy Mitchell near Afton-Elberon
to make the arrest. Macon was
wanted in Franklin county for
killing a citizen there about 17
years ago. When they arrived Sam
Pinnell and Robert Pinnell went to
the back of the Mitchell house.
Hunter Pinnell and Walter Mustian
to the front. Bessie Mitchell denied
that the negro was there, but
in a few minutes he ran from the
home, shooting Sam Pinnell through
the stomach and dropping Robert
Pinnell with another shot. Hunter
Pinnell ran around the house at the
sound of the gun and shot Macon
as he turned upon him. He and
Walter Mustian then handcuffed
him and rushed with Sam Pinnell
and Robert Pinnell to Henderson
where Sam died that night. Macon
was carried there too for treatment.
The last murder case from the
county was the one against W. L.
Ross several years ago. Macon, if
the appeal is not perfected, will be
the first person to be executed from
this county in 18 or 19 years. Ross
after second trial was said to be
insane.

BOY ROBBERS
IN VANCE JAIL
Davis Garvins And Robert
Marchbanks Confess To
Several Robberies
UNABLE TO RAISE BOND
HENDERSON, Sept. 26.?Davis
Garvins, 19, who said his home was
near Fayetteville, and Robert
Marchbanks, 18, who gave Texas as
his home, both white men. were in
the Vance County jail today in default
of $2,000 bond each to await
trial at Vance Superior court next
week on charges of store-breaking.
They confessed robberies here, and
at Franklinton, Norlina, Rich
Square, Ahoskie and at Jackson,
having been captured in the act at
the last-named town, and Marchbanks
slightly injured when he was
shot by the chief of police as he
was kt^ping watch while his pal
did the plundering inside. They
pleaded guilty to the charges in
recorder's court here yesterday.
The robbery here occurred last
Sunday night, as did also those at
Franklinton and Norlina, while tne
others are understood to have been
done since that time. The boys
were riding in an automobile they
j admitted they stole in Darlington,
S. C. They had robbed two stores
at Norlina and at Jackson, and
already were under $500 bond each
at Jackson before being brought
here for trial.
Practically all of the goods
stolen by them at all of these
places was recovered, according to
Deputy Sheriff J. L. Cash, who with
S. B. Rogers went to Jackson and
brought them back to Henderson.
The store robbed here is owned by
Mr. Rogers, who is chairman of the
Vance Board of County Commissioners.
Both men talked freely of their
exploits, Deputy Cash said. They
denied, however, that they were
the pair who bought gasoline at
the American Tourist Camp, two
miles south of the city on Route
50, Sunday night, and paid for it,
then bought two quarts of oil and
sped away without paying for it.
They explained that they always
paid for their gas and oil so as to
keep down suspicion. Garvins is
said to have related that he picked
up Marchbanks on the highway
and persuaded the latter to accompany
him in his robberies.

"Killed in action?Miller L. Huggins."
The mighty midget of the Yankees
lies dead today when, on the
word of Dr. Edward King, his physician,
he might be alive if the
stamina he devoted to the losing
pennant battle of his ball team
had been hoarded for the benefit
of his own physical well being.
Taxed more and more by each succeeding
baseball campaign, the
miniature commander of the Yankees
was drained of strength when
he entered St. Vincent's Hospital
last Friday, and was easy prey for
the toxins which ended his life at
3:16 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
All baseball will pay tribute to
Huggins at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon
when his funeral will be
held at the Church of the Transfiguration,
