THE PILOT, Southern Pines and Aberdeen, North Carolina Page Sevefl Mrs. Julia McDougald Passes at Daughter's Home in Cameron lllne^ of Three Months Fatal to Beloved Widow of Late Neill McDougald Mrs. Julia McDougald, aged 85 years, died after an illnoss of three months at the home of tier riaujrtiter and son-m-law, Mr. and MiJ. H. D. Tally in Cameron, last Wednesday morning, December 9. Mr.^. McDou gald /was a woman of the old school, intelligent, religious and energetic, doing with her might whatsoever her hands found to do. The young people of the town found in her a ready friend, one that understood their spir it of fun and laughter; it was no un usual sight to see a bevy of younij girls gathered around her on a sum mer afternoon and hear their morry chatter and peals of innocent lauglit- er. She is survived by her only dau ghter, Mrs. H. D. Tally of Cameron; two sons, Alex McDougald of Venus, Fla., and Archie McDou^SIT^f Ham let; five grandchildren, Mrs. Harry Hendry of Ft. Green, Fla.; James McDougald of Lake Hamilton, Fla., Julian McDougald, patient at Venice Hospital, Fla., J. B. Tally of Buffa lo, N. Y., and Miss Margaret McDou. gald of Florida, whose mother died when she was an infant, Mrs. Mc Dougald became a mother to her, rearing her to young womanhood. The prayer all through the years, of this devoted grandmother was that she might be spared to see this child graduate from high school, and the prayer was answered last June when Margaret took her diploma from the Wauchulla High School in Florida. This grand-daughter assisted in nurs ing and caring for Mrs. McDougald, and for three months gave her her undivided attention. She is also sur. vived by three great grand children, Betty Jean and Maryland Tally of Buffalo, N. Y. and Donald Neil Hen dry of Ft. Green, Fla. Funeral services were [conducted last Thursday afternoon by the Rev. M. D. McNeill from the Presbyterian Church, of which she was a charter member. Pallbearers were L. B. McKeithen, L. F. Hartsell, W. G. Parker, Cone McPherson, Ira Thomas and Prof. R. F. Lowry. Interment was in the Cameron Cemetery by the side of her husband, the late Neill McDougald, who passed away some years ago.

Numerous small pieces of metal were scattered around, and in the auto mobile of one of the suspects, they found a similar piece of metal and an old hammer upon which could be seen traces of red and blue enamel- HIGH SCHOOL ENGLISH CLASSES KECEJSVE Gin'S Complete returns, now assembled, of the 1936 Red Cross Roll Call for Pinehurst indicate a gratifying gene rosity on the part of Pinehurst resi dents, as well as an unflagging effort on the part of the ladies who took ' part in the annual solicitation of I funds.

The prisoners caught are J. B. Stroud of Durham county, serving 8 to 10 years; George Andrews, Cald well county, serving 10 to 15 years for robbery with firearms, and Jack Joyner, serving 15 to 24 months for forgery. Those still at large are Le roy Batten and Oscar Hare. Only white prisoners are confined at this camp. The saw used in the escape was a crude but effective tool. A hack saw blade had been fitted into a frame made by bending an iron rod. W’here the blade was procured is not known. The men, one of whom had been ordered to bed with influenza, scaled the prison wall after sawing their way out of the building, but were seen by others at the camp who promptly gave the alarm. Blood hounds trailed the two until 1:00 o’clock Tuesday morning, but finally lost the trail upon reaching a road where there had been much traffic. Seaboard’s Income is Greatest Since 1930 operating revenues his year will be the greatest for any year since 1031 and the gross income the largest since 1930, he added. “The estimated 1936 gross income is before the deductioo for tEixes un der the railroad retirement act,” Mr. Jones declared. "The Seaboard Rail way, along with certain other large railroads of the country, has not been accruing such taxes in the belief thaM the retirement act is unconstitutionaL It will be recalled that the SupreaiB Court declared he 1934 railroad »- irement act unconstitutional.

Total operating revenues of the Seaboard Air Line Railway for this year will be about $37,800,000, and gross income available for charges will be $3,400,000, it was announced last week by R. P. Jones, chief fi nance and accounting officer. These totals are based on actual figures for ten months and estimated fig ures for November and December. The Seaboard, which services the Sandhills section, has been operating under receivership for the past sev eral years, so that the 1936 report is most encouraging to creditors and stockholders. Mr. Jones pointed out that the gross income includes credit adjust, nients assignable to prior years for taxes which are estimated at $250,000.
