Postmaster J. L. Williams, announc-
,' Albert T. Outlaw
BY. J; B. GRADY
Albert T. Outlaw, Register of Deeds in Duplin
County, this week announced his candidacy to
succeed himself in that office. Mr. Outlaw has
been a most, efficient Register of Deeds for many
years. In fact he bears the general reputation of
being one of the' best Registers and has one of
the most efficient offices in the state. All lawyers
and others who have occasion to use his office tes
tify to its efficiency.
Mr. Outlaw, in addition to being Duplin's Reg
ister, is recognized as .the official County Historian.
For many "years he has given unstintingly of his time
and. effort, without hope of recognition or reward,
compiling history of Duplin and its people. The
(public will never know the value of Mr. Outlaw's
! work until long after Ke is gone. This is ho reflection
in any manner but seems to be an axiom of life
that those historians who are not professionally and
officially in the business make priceless contribu
tions to mankind which are never known until the
: record of their work is fully exposed after they are
gone. Time will make Albert Outlaw immortal in
this field. Writing history of Duplin and its people
has been one of his hobbies and he has diligently
applied himself and enjoyed that work in no limited
manner or degree. He feels that this is his contribu
tion to posterity in Duplin County. I think it can
be truly said that had it not been for Albert Outlaw
there, would have been no "Duplin Story". Had it
not been for Albert Outlaw many historical facts
' about the County, that will play an important part
in the future of Duplin, would never have been
known or accurately revealed. Albert has labored
long and untiringly for Duplin and its people. If
anyone deserves the thanks and: appreciation of a
people for unselfish service it is certainly Albert T. .
Outlaw. If any office holder is entitled to his office
' by virtue of his efficiency in the job, his love and :
: faith in Duplin and her people and. his untiring
; labors to reveal to Duplin the great that is justly ?
hers, certainly it is Albert Outlaw. ; This writes
hopes no one wlil offer against Mr. Outlaw and '
that he will hold that ofice as -long as he lives.
He is entitled tq this much "TJiariks". from the peo n

lovely. The crowd was gay md

150 and 200,000. The weather was

enthusiasm at fever pitch such
bands some twenty-three of them,
the marvellously disciplined Ma

high-stepping, cartwheeling ma
