TL'a l:.nd Is a " . ! r ""if ' f "t t 3 vx - rf n i Potash these people would ,devote more of their time farming, Instead of fooling away their time In the water and woods with their guns, they could make a good liv ing. They generally plant their gardens and corn patches, then leave them, that is, the most of them do so. Right now they an soft crablng, every one, big and little, young and old, men, women and children, are In the sound from morning until night, catching crabs. It Is real odd and right funny to see the maided women, and young ladles too and girls from 5 years old up, In the water np to their knees and waists, sometimes with their crab nets scooping and drsgglng for soft crabs and pulers or busters as called, their negligees at half mast, or dresses drabltug In the water, barefooted of course, tor all go barefooted now men, women and all, would seem curiouato people not used to. such, i Then to see them using tobac- oo and anas witt. pipes tojpatch, ls the mora stranger as the parent' allow ttelf children to use snuff, smoke and chew, little girls, soma of them very good look ing, chewing tobacco and using snuff be sides smoking the pipe, and the young ladles teem not to mind going barefooted and bare legged right before you, or in the water after clams, crabs or Oysters. Such Is habit in life, we guess we could use ourselves to most anything. : One of the principal sports here now Is shooting sea loons as they fly over the ocean going north, every morning now from day llghtftll two hours by sun, nearly every man and boy, that can hold a gun, Is at his post on the beach, and the continuous noise of the pop, boom, hang, goes on like the small arms In a big battle, but we don't kill all we shoot at, quite, we venture theasserslon that last Saturday and Monday after two kegs of gun powder and ten bags of shot were thrown away at the loons, the number killed was five, so we lessened. These people lovo to shoot, kill or no kill. ; Since .our last notes thlngs"are not materially caangod for either better or worse as we boo much, though we con tinue to learn more and more of the dis positions manners sndjicustoms. We have found that nearly all of them, don't lake particular pains to confine themselves strictly to the truth in all things nor at all times, though they pro fess to be good church members, and some of them profess to be even good christians; yet If you go among them they will treat you well as ' they know how to do, they are good people In their way, and we are sorry they are so Illit erate and uneducated, and they will never have any education, unless you compel them to send their children to school, which ought to be done, as there are some bright children here that need education, we know wberof we speak, we have tried them. . J 4 Our school will close the first of June, the teacher has had a hard time trying to teach these children,; he has had no co-operation from parents, while they say they want their children to learn, they don't show It only by saying so, Some of the most promlnents ones don't visit the school or show any Inter est In It. We don't see any use of the State appropriating money for schools under these circumstsnces. Last Sunday was our preaching day, we had two preachers, J. F. Ussey and J. W. Wheeler, Ussey was our pastor here, but he and Wheeler have exchanged cir cuits, the latter has been at Ocracoke, we don't know the cause of the exchange but understood it was by mutual consent of both parties and by consent of the P. B. and Supt. A big pic nlo and banks party came off last Saturday, 1st Saturday in May from Swansboro and surroundings.. Some of our Salter Pathers participated,, one young man especially, Mr, A. W. took It In to himself right. Now he says he is to be called Mr. W. hereafter. There were about 400 people there from sev eral counties, and from all parts of Ons low county. 'r.HA UiCI v We were very sorry to hear while there, of the sudden death of Mrs. Nan cy Hatsell, wife of bryan Hatsell of Swansboro. 8he was In fair health Sat urday morning, ate her breakfast and walked out In the garden as usual, and tell to the ground with tomething like a paralytic stroke, and died almost with out a struggle. She was about 65 years old and leaves a large family of children and grand (children,' besides a husband fo mourn her death. She was a member of M. .
