JOHN AOELL Proprietor. HOr.TG FIRGT: ABROAD NEXT. OI -OO Per Year in Advanco Tol XXIV ROXBORO, NORTH CAROLINA, Wednesday . Evening May 15: 1907. tfo 20 THE RE-UNION According to the previous . an nouncement the Confederate Vet erans met here last Fridavand were addressed by Mr. R. O. Everett in the court house. Mr. Fverett' de livered a carefully prepared address on the incidents in the life; and the character of Gen. Robert F. Lee. At the close of the address Cross es of Honor were presented , to the old veterans who failed to get them last year. The presentation speech was maue uv uur. luwnsuicii ivn . S.G- Winstead ami it was a gem. J Mr. Winstead is oneof our young attorneys, and he did himself greaft credit by this speech and - the speech showed thegoo,d jndge ment of the Daughters of the C6nr federacy in selecting him for' this part of the program. After the exercises at the court house were completed the old vet erans formed in line in front of the square and marched to the Pioneer Warehouse where a sumptuous dinner was spread for them . by trie Daughters. These re-unions are a source of much pleasure to the old men, and the ladies are due many thanks for bringing them together. The one saa thought at these meetings is the fact that the number is gradually growing smaller, and every year faces are missed that were seen t the meeting the year before some have srossed over and will attend no more re-unions here. The Roxboro colored band made the music for the occasion, which added spirit and enthusiasm to the gathering. I A Narrow Escape. G. W Cloyd, a merchant,, of Plunk, Mo., had a narrow escape four years ago, when he ran aj;m son burr into his thumb He says, "The doctor wanted to amputate it but I would not consent.
