Thee di^dnguished jurists of
Moore county will be honored at
a memorial program to be hold
by the Moore County Bar associa
tion !at a date which will be sot
when arrangements are complete,
pirobably sometime this spring
Portraits of the jurists will be
hung in the courtroom! at Car
thage, to be unveiled with ap
propriate ceremony, according
to tentative plans revealed this
week by J. Talbot Johnson of
lAberdeeri, president of the
Moore Bar association.
Honored will be the late Judges
James D. Mclver, W. J. Adeims
and H. F. Seawell, of Carthage, ar
rangements for the presentation of
whose portraits are being made
by members of their families.
The project was inspired by the
fact that lawyers of this county
in their travels about the state
see in many courtrooms the por
traits of native sons who have
distinguished themselves on the
bench, said President Johnson.
They observed that the Carthage
courtroom was bare of these,
though the county’s history does
not lack for worthy subjects. De
cision to secure such portraits if
possible, and unveil them with
due honor, was made at a special
meeting of the Bar association
held a week or two ago. The fam
ilies when approached were found
to be cooperative with the idea.
Tentative plans call for an
evening ceremony, a special
“court session” to be held at a
time convenient to 13th District
Resident Judge Don F. Phillips,
of Rockingham, when the por
traits have been completed. Judge
Phillips and court attaches will
open the ‘'‘session” with the usual
legal forms. The memorial cere
mony will follow.
Selected for the presentation
speeches are U. L. Spence, dean
of the Moore County Bar, ,who
will honor his former law part
ner Judge Mclver; M. G. Boyette,
close friend and protege of Judge
Seawell, and County Solicitor W.
A. Leland McKeithen, who will
speak on Judge Adams.
Judge Mclver and Judge Adams
were superior court judges and
Judge AdEims became an associate
justice of the State Supreme
Court. Judge Seawell has served
on the bench of the U. S. Court of
Tax Appeals in 'Washington. A.11
accumulated many distinctions in
their long and fruitful lives, and
have a secure place in the history
of jurisprudence in the State
Mrs. J. C. Martin, 73, died last
Thursday morning at her home
oear Eagle Springs. Funeral serv
ices were held at the Eagle
Springs Baptist church Friday
afternoon, followed by burial in
the church cemetery.
Surviving are her husband;
'our sons, Clyde, Roy, Earl and
Lynn, and one daughter, Mrs.
jrace Cook, all of Eagle Springs;
18 grandchildren and two great

JOHN JACOB NILES
Nation’s Foremost
Ballad Singer Will
Be Here Feb. 23
The man who writes down all
those wonderful old tunes you
love is coming to sing them to
you!
John Jacob Niles, whose musi
cian’s ear sorts out America’s best
melodies, whose genius popular
izes them, and whose skillful
hands make the instruments upon
which he plays them, will be here
to give music lovers in the Sand
hills a program! of favorite songs
at the Southern Pines school au
ditorium, Friday evening, Febru
ary 23rd.
He will tell you they are just
the songs of our countrymen but
the world’s greatest artists con-
certize through them, (“‘I Wonder
As I Wander, for instancejj our
children go to bed with them
(“Frog Went-a-Courtin’); and wo
sing them (“Jack O’ Diamonds”)
when we feel good. There are so
many more. And he plays them on
a hand-made dulcimer, (looks like
a big fiddle, an over-grown ban
jo, a fat guitar). He makes these
instruments and brags that the
poor ones, “anyhow, make good
f'je-wood!”
The Sandhills Music Associa
tion will present Mr. Niles in con
cert, as the next attraction on
their series. Tickets may be or
dered by writing or calling at
