THE CASE OF JOHN FWSBY
t iil li 'II' '
MISTRIAL
Special Term Of Court Set For
' September. 24th
Due to the 'illness oi bne of the
jurors sitting on the case of John
Frisby, charged with the murder of
his son, Ema, last week, court ad
journed Friday afternoon In the hope
that the juror, Mr. Carlos, Carter, of
Mars Hill, would be able by Satur
day morning for the case to be re
sumed. However, he was not able
to return and Judge McElroy order
ed a mistrial.
Right much of the evidence had
been heard and the illness of Mr.
Carter was quite a disappointment
to the immense crowd . attending
court, as much interest was evident
in the case. Of course the people
sympathized deeply with Mr. Carter,
as his illness was quite unexpected
and was said to be of the nature of
acute indigestion. A special term of
court has been set for' September 24
and the list of jurors for this term
atears elsewhere in this paper.
Thirteen prisoners were taken
from the county jail herd Monday to
the Henderson county, roads where
they are to serve sentences imposed
at the August criminal term of court
which adjourned Saturday here.
Three men - were taken from here

On 'Thursday, August 23, we an

We 'want you to know that the ad

ing the new line has produced ex
ceedingly satisfactory results.
It has been the policy of Frigidaire

One hour was taken Thursday
morninir of court week, from nine to

Board of Health, now head of the i ,. . . " , ... , . ii
Duke Foundation fund for North Car- this field can be credited in no small
olina. Dr. Rankin discussed the need (measure to the use of adequate news
of a hospital in Madison County and.'Bper advertising space.
icrificei
Judge McElroy ably backed up what
he said by appealing to his hearers to
support a bond issue for this purpose
rather than let our people go on suf
fering and dying as in the past.
i Dr. Rankin, introduced to the au
dience by Mr. Guy V. Roberts, made
a fine impression upon his audience.
He explained why Mr. Duke gave his
money, from a cold business stan 1-
point and not from sentimental im
pulses, to establish hospitals in rurall
communities instead of giving it ton
schools, churches, or other charitable
organizations. Sickness and suffering
is a common enemy of all, regardless
of everything. Everybody great , or
small, rich or poor, must suffer some
time. The average is 40 sick abed alt
the tin in every 1000 population,
besides those who are sick in various
ways but able to be up. He said that
ten per cent of the forty are hospital
cases, but many die because they are'
not able to go to the hospital.
He told of how the best physicians
leave the country and go to the cities
where they have hospital equipment
to work with and how impossible it Is
for one physician to equip a hospi
tal. He showed how hopitals are sel
dom self supporting. He said. that the
Duke fund is available if the Count
will pat up half the cost of the build?
ing and that a hospital to take care
of the. needs of this county will cosM
equipped, in the neighborhood of
$70,000, one half of which will .be
forthcoming from the Duke fund..
This fund also provides $1.00 a day
for every charity case in the hospi
tal. The need of it can hardly be ex
plained in the space we can give It
now, but the law of the matter ia'
tnat to call an election, a petition
shonld be circulated and as many .as
200 freeholders must sign to call an.
election. Such a petition has already

and church on time, and he has
found a good many Scriptural ex
amples that justify his exhortations.
In his calendar of January 29, he
gives these excellent citaitons:
Abraham rose early to stand be
fore the Lord (Gen. 19:27.)
Jacob rose early to worship the
Lord (Gen. 28:18.)
Moses rose early to give God's
message to Pharaoh (Ex. 8:20.)
Moses rose early to build an alter
to God (Ex. 24:4).
Moses rose early to meet God at
Sinai (Ex. 34:4.)
Joshua rose early to capture Jeri
cho (Josh. 3:1.)
Joshua rose early to lead Israel
over Jordan (Josh. 3:1.)
Joshua rose early to take Ai (Josh.
8:10.)
Gideon rose early to examine the
fleece (Judg. 6:38.)
Hannah and Elkanah rose early
to worship God (1 Sam. 1:19.)
Samuel rose early to meet &aui
(1 Sam. 15:12.)
. David rose early to do as his father
Uid him (1 Sam. 17:20.)
Israel rose early ana founa tneir
job rose eariy to oner
for his children (Job 1:5.)
The Son of God rose early to go
to a solitary place to pray (Mark
1:36.)
Jesus rose early to go to the
temple to teach (John 8:2.)
The people rose early to go to
hear him (Luke 21:37.)
The women rose early to go to the
sepulchre (Mark 16:2.)
As an old writer puts it:
The morning is the gate of the day
and should be well guarded with
prayer.
The morning is one end of the
thread on which the day's actions
are strung, and should be well knot
ted with devotion.
If we felt more the majesty of
life, we should be more careful of
its mornings.
He who rushes from his bed to his
business and waiteth not to worship
in prayer is as foolish as though he
had: not put on his clothes, or wash
ed his face, and as unwise as though
he dashes into battle without arms
or armor.
Be it ours to bathe in the softly
flowing river of communion with
God before the heat of the wilder
ness .and the . burden of the way be
gin to oppress.
How better can we do this than by
rising early, being on time at God's
house for the study of his word in
the Sunday School and for worship
in his house? Baptist Courier.
