Drowning Victim
* * Early Wednesday
No Formal Inquest Held for
Johnny Wilder Who Lost
His Life Saturday
—- ■•»
The body of Johnny Wilder, 35
year-old colored man who drown
ed in Sweet Wai«>r Creek near
here last Saturday afternoon, ,was
• recovered early Wednesday morn
ing. The body surfaced after of
ficers, relatives and friends had
dragged the creek and dynamited
the water in an effort to find the
missing man.
Going to the creek about 5:30
o’clock yesterday morning to con
tinue the search, Eddie Sheppard
and Floyd Gorham found the body
^ which had surfaced sometime dur
ing the night and held to about
the same spot in the creek where
he is believed to have drowned.
The body was turned over to the
Everett Funeral Home.
Making an investigation, Coron
er S. R. Biggs said he was satis
fied that the victim had not en
countered foul play, that there
were no bruises on the body
which was described as being in a
state of decomposition. No formal
inquest was ordered held.
Wilder, a native of Bertie Coun
ty, went fishing vyith James Wal
ston Saturday afternoon. Using a
boat they set two or three trot
lines ,and started home late m the
day. Wilder told Wilson to take
the bicycle they had used jointly
4 on the trip to the creek, explain
ing that he preferred to walk. He
added that he would get the bi
cycle at Walston’s home later.
Walston said that Wilder had been
drinking, but declared that he was
“not out of the way.” *
Wilder was reported to have
been seen a short time later in the
boat just below the bridge with
his head between his knees as if
he was sleeping. That'was the
last time he was seen alive.
Officers are of the opinion that
Wilder went back to fish the trot
hnes, that he encountered a wasp
nest in a tree top that had fallen
into the creek, and that he fell out
wasps. K? was wearing a pair of
, boots while fishing, but they were
missing when the body was re
covered, officers stating that the
man could have pulled or kicked
them off after falling into the
water.
The body was found just a few
yards above the bridge and not far
from the spot where he was last
^ seen alive.
His was the fourth life to have
been lost by drowning in county
waters since last spring.
Employed by White’s Tin Shop
here for a number of years, Wild
er was recognized as a dependable
worker. He was a son of Guy
and Ellen Dunstan Wilder and is
survived by his widow, the former
Roxie Everett, three daughters
and a small son.
^ Funeral services will be held
Fr'day at 2:00 o'clock.

Polio Victim
Has Operation
While interest is centered in the
current spread of polio, work con
tinues almost unceasingly to re
store those victims who came
down with the malady one, two
and three years ago. In some in
stances the work, made possible
by the March of Dimes, is still cur
rying on with even older cases.
Young Miss Joyce Christine Lil
lcy, lulling victim of the disease
several years ago, just recently
underwent a major operation in
Duke Hospital. ‘ Surgery consist
ed of left subastragular arthrode
sis, achilles tendon lengthening
and transplantation of posterior
tibial tendon," the report recently
received by the Martin County

young girl has the limb in a cast
but the operation and treatment
are expected to restore most of
| her faculties in time. The bill for
$884 is being accepted by, the

More recently a patient was
hospitalized in a Durham hospital
1 It was first thought the child had
I polio, but a complete diagnosis re
I vealed the child was victim of an

There are other old cases re

Bond Set In Gun
Attack at Hearing
Tuesday Evening
Unable to Raise $500 Bond
Bill Winbush Continues
In County Jail
Charged with firing two loads
of gun shot into Jimmy Bryant’s
baqk early in the morning of July
18, Bill Winbush was piaeed under
bond in the sum of $500 at a pre
liminary hearing held before Jus
tice R. T. Johnson in the court
house here Tuesday evening. Un
able to arrange bond, Winbush
was returned to jail to await trial
in the superior court during the
term opening the third Monday in
September.
Evidence offered at the hearing
was contradictory, making it ap
pear that tempers, aggravated by
hot weather, and the free use of
intoxicants played a part in the
attack. The witnesses could not
agree on but one thing; all of them
declared that when Winbush yell
ed "gangway" David Bryant ran
all over ^himself to make room,
that he did not stop until he fell
into a canal ditch near a tobacco
barn where the attack took place
on the Harrell Everett farm.
The victim of the attack said
that he went to William Purvis'
tobacco barn on the night of July
17, that he and Winbush played
cards with others. “Winbush bor
rowed 25 cents from me and paid
It back. I lost it and wanted to
borrow from Winbush. Some
words followed and Winbush
went to his home half a mile
away, got his gun and returned.
I got up and started to run, Win
bush firing on me when I was only
a few steps away. He reloaded
his gun and shot me again," Bry
ant said, pointing to a plaster cov
ered wound on his right shoulder.
Bryant later said that they had nc
words, that Winbush shot him for
no reason at all.
David Bryant, cousin of the vk
tim, could tell little about thi
trouble and attack, but he gave a
good word description of his ac
lions when W-inbwsh • yelled
.,‘Vlflngwa^^ _ .—in..
Justice Johnson said it was hard
to believe that a man would walk
a long distance for a gun, return
and shoot a man without some
provocation. He then asked Win
bush ll he cared to tell his side oi
the story. •
"I went to Purvis’ barn about
5:30 Saturday afternoon and
Johnny came along about dusk
staggering from one side of the
path to the other,” Winbush dc
j dared. “He called me and threat
'ened my life, but I told him to
leave me alone and we returned
to the tobacco barn where I sat on
one end of a tobacco truck and
Bryant on the other. Something
was said about cards and Bryant
went to his home and got a deck,’
Winbush said.
Something was said about Bry
ant having a “corner” on the
queens in the deck, but despite
that he lost over $(j. Winbush
then said, "Bryant took cards and
went into the barn yard, but came
back and he wanted to borrow the
30 cents I had borrowed and won
An argument followed, and I told
him he had been nagging me long
enough, and I got up and went foi
my gun.”
Aftei the hearing revealed only
confusing accounts of the attack,
a discussion was centered on the
$500 bond and Winbush’s release,
Landlord Everett stated he was
ready to sign Winbush’s bond, but
Bryant said that if Winbush went
back to the farm lie (Bryant)
would • throw up his crop ' and

Closing Swimming Pool As
A Polio Precautionary Step
Meeting this morning, members
of the local recreation committee
decided to close the municipal
swimming pool as a precautionary
measure against the spread of
polio. The pool will suspend op
erations possibly for the remain
der of the season Saturday even
ing. It was learned that the pool
has had very patronage these past
few days or since the board of
health suggested a voluntary
quarantine on the movement of
children sixteen years old and un
der.
The extension of the quaran
tine on a voluntary basis is being
considered, but it will not effect
assemblies in Sunday schools and
other public places immediately,
it was reliably learned Some ac
tion of a more or less definite na
tun; is expected next, week with
the possibility that a lan h strict
ban on assemblies will go into el'
feet.
It was pointed out, that the
swimming pool offered the great
est danger and the authorities dal
not. hesitate to call for its dosing.
At the same time it was pointed
out that confusion would result if
I assembly is continued in some in
stances and banned in other in
stances. Apparently there is no
determined opposition to tile vol
untary ban, but leaders in various
fields are of the "opinion that the
ban should be observed not after
a haphazard fashion.
No eases of the disease have
been reported, but should polio
make its appearance in the coun
ty health authorities can be ex
peeted to clamp down with a ban.
Congregation Ban
Has Some Effect
—*— -
A limited quarantine advanced
on a voluntary basis as a precau
tionary measure against the
spread of poliomyelitis in tins
county is havint! some eftect, but
is not measuring up to expecta
tions, according to an unofficial
report heard here today. Whether
an iron-clad quarantine will be
clamped on the movement of ehil
dren sixteen years of age and un
der depends on the response re
reived by the appeal. No cases
have yet been reported in near
by counties. Should the disease
make us appearance in this court
ty it is cuite likely that a quarun
tine would be ordered.
The t umber of polio cases is
pushing on toward the 1,000 mark,
but health authorities believe a
climax has been reached. How
ever, the epidefflfi*' rs’TTRWJ: (fT
count 1,200 victims before it is
more or less fully checked by
cooler weather in September and
Octobr r.
"'SO' far tins’ year, 8,t>t)3 c,,..i
f,wstrf, "i c'pvrrt cal nr this coon
try, the count being the greatest
since 1931 when 4,138 cases were
reported. The worst epidemic on
record was recorded in 191(1 when
there were 9,345 cases. Authori
ties are of the opinion that the
total number of cases this year
will exceed the count recorded in
1931.
The National Foundation for In
fantile Paralysis is sending to this
State $100,000 to help in the pres

Painful I v Hurt In
Farm Accident

Mrs, Lizzie Rogers was painful
ly hurt in a farm accident in the
Bear Grass community late last
Tuesday afternoon. Pitching in to
help with the farm chores while
others were busy with the tobacco
harvest, Mrs. Rogers was leading
a cow to the barn when a dog
frightened the cow and the animal
