Sydnor-Spainhour
aptly borne out in the case of Mrs.
Gough. She is very active, both
mentally and physically, and is
well aware of present day pro
blems and events. She is a vorac
ious reader, and keeps well abreast
of what the dictators are doing
in Europe. She likes Chamberlain
and Daladier, but strings along
with King Zog in part in saying
that Hitler and Mussolini are
surely madmen. Mrs. Gough is
very apprehensive of the world
situation at the present time and
she fears from day to day as she
goes to her mail box to get her
morning Winston-Salem Journal
that it will bring the dreaded news
that the great countries of Europe
are again entangled in throes of
war.
Mrs. Gough was born in Yad
kin county on April 15, 1863, and
has lived her entire life in and
near Boonville. When she was a
THE ELKIN TRIBUNE, ELEXN, NORTH CAROLINA
young girl she united with the
Deep Creek church, and has been
a member there ever since. In her
young womanhood she married
Martin F. Gough who died several
years ago. He was a Confederate
veteran and fought in the regi
ment with General Joseph E.
Johnson. To this union were born
nine children, six sons and three
daughters. Eight of these chil
dren, along with her great num
ber of grandchildren were present
Sunday to pay their mother
homage.
The children who were present
Sunday are as follows: J. C.
Gough and E. M. Gough, of Le
noir; Everett Gough, of Boonville;
E. W. Gough, C. W. Gough and

and Mrs. C. E. Smith and Mrs. D.
W. Sloan, also of Winston-Salem;
