There is many a hill to climb, and many a hill, to climb,; and many rough places to cross before one reaches it, but we are glad to sav that The Courier has weathered the storm, ' and judging by its patronage, has t' grown stronger as the mile posts are past! ' We feel that in many instances ' we have not given pur people as good paper as they deserved, bur we have tried to do our best 6rre thing is sure, we have t all times i 1 fried to do what was to the best , interest of Roxboro and Person county,! in this aim we have been constant in season and out of season.; We are proud to be able to say to day, as we look back over the past years, and survey the fields as we found it, and then compare it with the Roxboro and Person county of to-day, that there have been yast improvements, both in town and county. We do not believe that the 1 r j people of Person county were ever v in a better condition- than you w ill " find them, to-day, and we jkaow ; that Roxboro is in a more solid condition" than ." she ever was. This v should make every citizen in the county swell with pride. , . We have no vain promises to tnake for the future of The Courier, uther tfian to say that we shall ' ; - always work for the upbuilding of 4 "' our town and county, becausfwe -Jove them both and it is a pleasure f ; , to labor for them. It is true we ' l have some "ambition to improve ' ; the paper in many, ways, and in a measure, we shall try this year to " . . materialize this ambition. But we . realize that it takes money to buy V' - machinery and omer material for a printing office, just as it does in other lines of business. But we hope by a constant endeaver to Work the best interest of our people to . receive such a patronage that will foring the; money into the business ; that will enable us to make these improvements.

Another man gone to his long sleep and Hoiloway's has lost a good citizen. Last Saturday morning about five o'clock'while the silent shade of night sail hovered over us the death angel came and claimed, as its -victim the spirit of Rull Hayes, the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Hayes. Besides father and mother he leaves a wife, five sisters and four brothers to mourn their loss, hur we trust this earthly loss is Heav-L en s gam. Rull as we always .called him Was a dutiful son, devoted husband affectionate brother and a kind neighbor his death is a sad blow to this community, he had been sick only two day's, was taken Thursday morning witn that fatal disease brain trouble. .; Dr. Merritt was at once sum moned, afterwards Dr. Drewery from Virgilina also Dr. Long from Roxboro -but nothing that these skilled physicians nor loving hands of his people; or friends could do did not stay the hagds of the hand of death. Dr. Merritt was.preserit at the time of bis death,-: his kind ness and sympathy to the whole family will always be remembered. It seems so mysterious for bur loved ones- to be plucked so sud denly he had entered the prime Of manhood, just passed his thirtieth year the 5th of last October. Yet we should strive tov say from the depths of our hearts VThy will oh Lord not curs.be done" though it seems so hard to give him up uow' some day - the mystery will be re vealed their we can more fully u n derstand. We should remember, God is too good to be unjust and "too wise to make mistakes. "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh blessed be the name of the the Lord -And while our ; hearts are burd ened help us Lord to look up and strive to Jive such a life, that we may be able to say when our sum mons come. "All is well with my Soui.M 7: ; . Thanks be unto God while disease may destroy the body nothing can take life from the soul born in Chirst Jesus blood. Rull professed faith , in Christ when quite young and joined Olive Branch Baptist -church of which he was a member, at the time of his death was married to Miss Corinna Melton Oct. 27 1907. Jus. one week to the day he was buried he and his wife took 'supper with us and seemingly he was the picture of healthr This should re mind us that life is uncertain f and that Rull has but paid the debt we all sooner or -later will be called upon to pay. ; - ,We laid- him- tov rest Sunday afternoon at the old busyingground at G. D. Neals where many friends and relatives, in spite , of lirclement weather had gathered- to pay their last respect to this deceased broth 'ttWwSMM t MrrThos. H.
