the air fresh and bracing, and the
people for miles uruuint ba;iii t(
pour into the ton, and the town
people were making ready to help
the visitord enj y the d.iy and make
the occasion a femperaut-e Kaliy ill
deed and in truth, and they din.
At 9:30 the Pi & train roiled iu
with three cars bided 'with men,
women and children from ail parts
of the county. The bait with the
Band and a party from Williamstou
Hiriycd about this time. The mid
day train on the A. C. L. , aud the
north bound i & brought dele
gations from neighboring towns, and
still the people came until there were
something like three thousand peo
ple on our streets.
At 11:45 twenty mounted Mar
shals and fully three hundred school
children lined up in front of the
hotel where they joined the Naval
iieserves and banu, a few minutes
later the carriage wnicn wm to con
vey the Governor and party drew up
with bunting, flags ii'id banners fly
ing. The Governor came upou the
scene and stepped into the carriage,
with him in the carrsage were: Lt.
C. Latham, of the Naval Reserves.
Chairman. V. S. Davenport, of the
Anti-Saloon League mid A, 0. Gay
lord, Esq.
The procession formed of Water
Street as follows: Chief Director of
Millitaiy Escort, Dr. A. V. Disso
sway, mounted iu full dress uniform
and eaber, commanded the parade,
Chief Marshal, A. V. Swain aud his
first assistant, M. V. Norman, led
the parade, then came the .Naval Re
serves led by the WillianistonCoruet
Band aud in command of Lt. J. L,
Phelps; then came the Speakers car
riage with a mounted escort; then
came the schools, hundreds of sweet
children, from 6 to IS years of age,
led in double file by Supt. C. J.
Jiverett and Prof- McCaniass, and
marshaled in perfect order by the
various teachers, while twenty well
mounted Marshals kept up the rear
and side lines. J he parade thus
formed moved up Water to Jefferson,
up Jefferson to ivlani, down Main to
Washington, out Washington to oth
Avenue, up the Avenue to Jefferaou
down Jefferson to Main thoncedowu
Main to the Court House, in front
of which, yet protected by the por
tico, amid festoons of red, white and
bine, was arranged the speaker's
stand, to this the great Governor of
our State was escyrted, aud then and
there, in a few well chosen words,
by presented to ihe vast audience by
A. O. Gaylord, Esq.
The fcoeuKr arose amid a great
applause, said he came h-'re to speak
but did not expect to have all tiie
people of Washington county out to
hear him. For nearly two hours he
held his audience almost epel-boum
by his powerful aud eloquent appeals
for the cause of Prohibition. By nis
iiiafcnitieent oratory he swayed the
multitude, by his powerful argu
meats ihat were undeniable, he con
vinced the vast assembly that he wu
defending the cause ot right, and as
their Chief Officer, ne was but d.nn
his sworn duty when he wm lighting
tiie de:-;mou, whiskey, that in so do
ing he was defending ti e Slate, the
best inteiests, the peace a;ui pros
perity of the people, the nomes, the
women and children, of North Caro
lina and his God.
During the entire time he wad
sptakiiig he was listened to with
such marked attention ihat he made
refrenceo it, saying ihat he nad
not only been given one of the larg
est, but possibly the most beany and
royal reception in Plymouth, that
he had received at any point in the
State. He seemed to emphasize
with pleasure, the fact thaf, though
he is the Commander-in-chief of the
millitary forces of the State, Wash
ington county is the first place he
has been recognized as such by such
a grand millitary display, he com
plimented the men and officers very
highly on the wide reputation they
Iiave won. This was not done on the
fetund, but to at the depot in a con
versation with the Beacon Man.
T h e p pea k e r d i st u sted the whiskey
question iu all its borrows in a very
forcible, yet pathetic and inolleushe
way and he challenged any may to
answer his arguments against the
saloon, sale, manufacture or use of
whiskey. He denounced as false the
statement of meu who boast that
they have had the honotof drinking
with him since he has been Goei
tor of North Carolina.
At the close of the speech all the
schools eaug appropriate temperance
songs nhrt the Ootcfnor joined with
them while he t-hook hands with all
who pissed by.
From ' he open expressions heard
on the streets after the speaking, it
is believt-d that much good will re
suit from the Governor appeal.
The people of Washington county
hud with them on Wednesday u great
nan. they had h big day, a threat
imIJv, now Ift. them keep it up until
the ":26th of May and all will be well.
