Probably Fatal Accident at Rai Iroad Crossing
Drowning of Engineer
In Harrington Creek
{ Shrouded In Mystery
Body of Lee Harris, of Hertford, Recov
ered from Water of Harrington Creek
After Disappearance from Home of
Host on Southern Avenue
i in' ixxiy 01 i-iv Mams, aliout -1 r> years old, employed
until recently as an engineer at the plant ol" the Knstern Cot
ton Oil Company, in Hertford, was recovered shortly after
noon Friday from the waters of Harrington Creek, at the
Southern avenue bridge, in this city. .Many elements ol mys
tery surround the tragedy.
Mr. Harris had conic here
Thursday from Hertford to
seek work in this city during
tho summer shutdown in ac
tivities at the oil null. He
spent the night at the home
of David Simpson, on South
ern avenue, about half a mile
from the point where his
body was found. Members of
the Simpson family stated
they retired for the night at
about 10 o'clock, but Mr.
Simpson declared that Mr.
Harris got up about 1 o'cloik
saying he was going out on
the porch to enjoy a chew of
tobacco.
a When members of the Simpson
I tkmlly arose Friday morning, Mr.
Jfarrls failed to appear. They
^nade a search of I he premise*
without result. and upon Inquiring
in t It** neighborhood were in
formed that Nancy Matthews, col
ored, living on Dawson street,
near Harrington Creek. had heard
"groans from the direction of (lie
bridge late in the night.
Fire Chief Jerome Flora was
notified of the occurrence, and be
gan dragging the waters near the
cre^k bridge shortly before noon.
In less than 30 minutes, the grap
pling hooks caught iu the clothing
of a drowned man, and the body
was dragged out. It was Identi
fied by Jim Caddy, saw filer at
the Kramer mill, on Southern ave
nue. Mr. Caddy formerly was em
ployed with Mr. Harris in the oil
mill at Hertford, and said he was
positive of the identlflcaton.
Pending n coroner's Investiga
tion, the supposition of Mr. Simp
son and members of bin family
was that Mr. Ilurrifl bad been
taken 111, mid had walked down
to the bridge. The structure Is
partially torn up while workmen
are instating a sewer line under it.
and the assumption is that Mr.
Harris, being unfamiliar with it.
might have stumbled overboard,
or else, while ill, might have fal
len into the creek and been unable
to save himself. Mr. Simpson
stated he was apparently all right
when he went to bed.
Mr. Harris bad been employed
by the Eastern Cotton Oil Com
, pany in Hertford fur .iIh.im mm
ktttonths. Before then, he bad
Rserved as night engineer at the
Thunlelpal light anil power plant
In Hertford, ills wife died about
a year and a half ago. and ho
leaves no children. He had he
roine acquainted with Mr, Simp
son during a recent revival at the
I'earl Street Assembly here.
The body was found Just under
the edge of the bridge, and on the
east side of It. When dragged
momentarily to the surface, it was
identified by Mr Caddy, and then
was fastened to a small dock,
while still In the water, to await
the arrival of Dr. I. Fearing, cor
orner. George Koch, a member
of Ihe fire department, was using
the drag wlieu the body was re
covered.
Tending a coroner's examina
tion. wild speculation was current
over the possibility that the man
might have been knocked In the
head and robbed, and his body
tlirown overboard, at the lonely
f|mt where the brldice Is situated.
Mr. Harris Is described as hav
ing been a temperate and intense
ly religious Individual.
Mr Simpson and hi* family be
come alarmed for Mr. Harris'
syelv when, upon entering bis
Jpdrooni. they discovered that he
left practically all of bis j
?^thlng there, and his suit cane.
Vrlhe event that he had suddenly
decided to leave, they figured he
Lwouid have taken his belongings.

in connection with the recent let
ting of contract by the city for
000 to 4?.0?U tons of gravel to
he used in street work, was made
by City Mauager Miles W. Fereln-e
today.
Mr. Culpepper, lu admitting that
he had written a letter to Mi
Freeman requeuing a l!?-eeiit
commission per ton on gravel to
t>e sold the city, embodying an as
sertion that five cents of the com
mission wan tu go to Mr. Ferehee.
claimed yesterday that he had
made that propositiou at the city
manager'** Instance.
"I never heard of any letter be
ing written to Mr. Freeman by
Mr. Culpepper until Guy Hastings,
of Hastings Brothers, and It. T. j
Hooker, of Hitter & Hooker, told'
me about It on Tuesday of this
week," Mr. Ferehee declared.
"Ah rood as I rould spare the
lime. I went to Norfolk and asked
Mr. Freeman about It. He told
me all about the letter and added;
rotislderable other information
that will come out later.
"1 realized before I undertook ,
to expose this condition that I
would he subjected to various
kinds of untrue and defamatory
charges. Exposing graft in this
city Is no easy job, but it is the
duty of every city manager to keep
it out of his admlulstrutiou, and
1 a m giving all the people notice
that I intend to keep It out of
mine.
"With reference to Mr. Culpep
per's charge that I went to him
and asked that he see how much
we could get out of the gravel
ileal, that is absolutely untrue. I
must say that I would havn had lo
have been in a very liberal frame
of mind to have proposed, not on
ly to split a profit with him, but
ulsn to have reserved only one
fourth for myself, when It would
have been for safer for me to have
dealt directly with Mr. Freeman
find kept all the profit for myself.
"Also. I would like to know how
Mr. Culpepper's brother, George,
and his partner, W. L. Jones, fig
ured In It.' '
With reference lo Councilman
Morgan's contention that Powell's
Creek gravel cotild have been pur-l
rhased and delivered at points of
utilization for 92.10 a ton. In- 1
*?ead of $2.25, the price paid by.
the City Council, Mr. Ferehee ex- '
plained that Mr. Freeman offered
lo deliver It here at $1.60 per
Ion. using Hay badges, with very;
leep holds, rendering unloading1
expensive.
The best hid available for un
loading from these barges, he said,
was -15 cents per ton. leaving only ?
10 cents per ton difference in the I
prices as an allowance for hauling
Mr. Ferehee declared he was prac
tically certain the haullnc would
*o*t more than that. Adding the
possibility of demurrage and de
lays, he expressed the opinion that
he cost of the grave) on that
l?asls might be much more.
Under the contract entered Into,
t>y the Council, the contractors, i
Kilter # Hooker, assume nil re
sponsibility for delivery of the ma-j

ilreets, when and where needed in!
