main street in the very heart of the
town. Just prior to the erection of thL
building, the Government had acquir
ed a lot on Matthews street, t lwifr
artery of Lrafiic, and had appropriated
for Kit *nd building. Mr. A>
diett said that the erection of such an
inadequaie building on a lot so dis
advi, situate-l was an out
rage. He called a ma» meeting of the
people of the city in the courthouse
and promptly secured an enlorsenient
of his viewpoint. The result was that
a committee from Congress visited
Elizabeth City, looked over available
sites, and after doing so, voted to
.•-elect the site recommended by Sir.
Aydlett and to appropriate $120,000,
instead of $50,000, for lot and build
ing. This put the postoAce on the
same block with the County cour*-

Called in the bloom of you*h
Just in the prime of lif«„^
• Away from a world of sorrow,
I To a land where all is bright.
Oh! how hart! we tried to save vau
Prayers and tears were all in vain ;
. Happy angel." came and took you
| From this world of suffering and |
pain.
No one knows the silent heart ache
Only those who have lost can tell I
Of the grief that borne in silence
Of the one we loved so well-
The midnight stars are tr learning
Upon her silent grave,
The one we love-1 so dear!y
And tried so hard to save.
