Claimed By Death
John F. Ferguson
John F. Ferguson, 76, of Parkton,
died Sunday evening in Moore
county hospital following an illness
of several months.
Funeral services were conducted
Tuesday at 3 p. m. from Parkton
Presbyterian church, of which he was
a life-long member by his former
pastor, Rev. T. A. Guiton of Lil
linglon, assisted by Rev. T. G. Davis
of Southern Pines. Interment was in
Parkton cemetery.
Surviving are his w'TeTfiv? sons,
John A. of Southern Pines, William
of Rocky Mount, Ernest of CamcHn,
S. C, C. J. of Wilmington and Sgt.
Boyd Ferguson stationed at Kelly
Field, Texas: and two daughters,
Mrs. L. M. Powell of Parkton and
Cpl. Mary F. Brown of the WAC
Air force, stationed at Bradley field,
Conn.
V.'e were sitting around after
chores the other night talking
about the progress of the war.
Chad Davis was saying how, In
ri:e of Germany's defeat, there
was still the German under,
ground to cope with.
"I don't worry about them,"
says Sober Hosklns. "So long as
we got our own underground In
working order."
"What do you mean-our un
derground?" says Chad. And
Sober points out to the fields.
"There It Is," he says, "under
that soil lies the most important
weapon that we've got Ameri
can crops from American fields
strengthening our position
overseas in a way no other un
derground can shake."
From where I sit, Chad's abso
lutely right. Whether it's for the
glass of beer that cheers a tired
soldier's spirits, or the bread
that feeds our armies and oar
allies, every bit of grain that
American farmers harvest is a
part of America's great strength.
