Reunion and Recep--' -'' Hon Follow (Special Correspondence) Greensboro, N. C May 31. Chief of "oli'v K ti has received a letter from f ).. .ft H !eigh in which she says, that f tM -u lhed reports of what John B. McMillan said about himself before he died, that he spent some time in Rali eigh last fall.-: He gave his name there aa John Southall, Saying his mother was dead and he had two sisters living. He tried to induce her son, she says', to travel with him, offering him good pay, but never told his business. In McMil lan's effects, has been found a most friendly and affectionate letter written the day after the Btory of his exploits and arrest in Greensboro was printed last fall This letter is from a promi nent young lawyer of Raleigh. The writer was evidently well acquainted with McMillan, and had confidence in him, since he offered to come to Greens boro and conduct the defence if desired. It is not thoroughly well established that the unfortunate young man, as his dying declaration, gave only one of half a dozen aliases he had used in his check ered career, the name Brett Moreybe- ; . i , 1 1 i . wit- . uig us upucurypai aa uiai oi racmiiian. fhe proprietor of a hotel here had Mc Millan's trunk which he turned over to them for an unpaid board bill. The trunk and its contents have never been examined, or if papers found there have revealed the secret of hia identity those learning it have very properly re spected the dead man's secret. Editor Joe Reese of the Record, re ceived today an interesting letter from an old GuHford resident, who is now a United States officer at Borneo. The writer says that in his travels about the antipodes, he frequently meets people, who on account of his name, who ask him if he is from North Carolina. Re cently he says, such an enquirer find ing he was from North Carolina asked at once if Jimmie Morehead was still living. The man's name was Walker, and said he went to school with Jimmie Mofehead, and that he was one of the most fluent and brightest young men he had ever known, He was much grati fied to learn that Jimmie Morehead was not only living, but had developed into a tried and brave soldier, a distinguish ed statesman and lawyer. Col. James T. Morehead. The writer also says, that once du ring his career, on fals'e charges, he was tried before a court martial. That CoL Calvin J. Cowlee, attracted by his name, asked if he was from North Car olina, and finding that he was, volun teered to conduct hia defence, and he was easily acquitted of all charges. The writer is a nejrro, Col E. L. Gilmer; of Greensboro, That name Gilmer does the work. V "viMr. T. A. Gillard, of Siler City died yesterday at St Leo's" hospital, where he was under treatment. His remains were shipped to Siler City- for inter ment. He was' 85 years old.' Heart disease was the cause of his death.
