Burke grave fixed up by Historical Society Governor Thomas Burke’s Quarter - acre grave site, some two miles northeast of Hillsboro, just off Highway No: 57, was put in spick and span condition re cently by Hillsborough Histori cal Society committee John W, Carr, Dr. and Mrs. H. W. Moore, Mrs. Erie G. Hill, and Mrs. Rob ert T. Murphy. Governor (Burke (17474783), North Carolina’s lit tle known, restlessly brilliant third governor, was the sub ject of an address last week .by Professor Walser of N. C. State College, recent editor of Burke’s POEMS, at the Society's spring dinner meeting Friday evening, May 25, at 6:45, at the Colonial Inn. The grave site committee set to work to put Burke’s grave in order before that event. Assorted litter of every kind —beer cans, discarded car parts, bottles, motor oil cans — as well as a dense tangle of underbrush and fallen tree trunks all but obscured the wooded area (once a part of Burkle’s plantation, “Tyaquin” in which the gray granite tombstone stands. The grave itself is enclosed by two semi - circles of low stone wall. Its cast - iron foot marker has been defaced and broken. The Historical Society com mittee .carted away truckloads of debris, cut up the fallen tree trunks with a power saw, and brought in a tractor and work ers to clear out the underbrush and relay the stone wall. All is in order save the broken plaque which must await a directive from the State Department of History and Archives in Raleigh. For the moment* at least the grave of the Irish statesman who helped draft the State Constitution, who helped devise the State’s Great Seal, and who represented North Carolina with energy and marked distinc tion in Provincial and Continen tal Congresses presents a neat, well-tended appearance. 3 Orange farmers in tobacco experiment Three Orange County tobacco [farmers, working with the Coun ty Agents and the North Caro lina Slate Experiment Station, are experimenting with three dif ferent tobacco problems.
