I wrote 1o Governor Stanley, laying tny case oelore him; lie sent the pass, and I came out via Swansboro. I expect ed when 1 reached there to be able to get conveyance either to Kinston or Warsaw, but upon reaching there found I would have to wait fiva days, and while it seemed good to be inside the Confederate lines again, 1 did not want to spend five days in Swansboro So I hired a boatman to take us to Sneeds Ferry via Brown's Sound. Thi* was the route that Col. Pool said two trips over it would give one the blind stagger* on account of being so crooked We left Swansboro on Thursday morn ing at eur.rne The boatman said he would nut us to Sneed’s Ferry that night, whereas v.e had to go ashore to a lerm house and spend the night, reach.ng the Ferry at one o clock on from Wilmington and with no rowans v1 rcaching there except an ordi nary isrm wagon, drawn by two mules We left there at two o’clock, tper.dir.g the n.ght on the way. and reached Wilmington at two ocIock on Saturday just one hour alter train had left lor Goldsboro. We left Wilmington at three o'clock Sunday morning, arriving at Golds bero at seven, just ninety-six hours coming from Morchead. Can make the trip now in two and a half hours. The last week in August our com pany was exchanged, and on the thirty-first we entered service again, going tc Wilmington, We camped r.l Green’s mill, one mile out from the city. About the middle of Sep tember yellow fever broke out in Iht city, and soon became epidemic, and we moved camp to Wrightsville sour.c. The day we broke camp I wont into the city three times on business and on the three trips I met eight yellow fever corpse being ear ned to the cemetery. I got the im pretfion on my nund that day that lor a place .no larger thou Wilming lon the death role was pretty large, sr.d I have never hod much desire to live there. I will hove to tell one trick I ivorkeu on Captain Andrews. Af ler being at Wrightsville a few .veins, :he men got out of tobacco, jr.d one who was over in thu jimy knows that when tobacco gives jut there is something doing among "'e men. They came to me insist rg liist J should get *0me, <1 had retn keeping it for sale) I went to rr.pt. Andrews and explained the situation, acd asked him to lei me :*>’« his horse end go to Wilming ,0.1, eight miles alter some. He told sw I was craay to ask aueh a thilVfj with the fever like it war Finding he would not gront the request. I then asked him to let me go to our! old camp at Green's Mill and get Mr. Bridger*. on old man who lived hard by, to go into town and get it lor me. The Captain finally agreed to this, so I went to Mr. Bridger*. hut he had gone into town I walt zed until about five o'clock and he did not return I mounted the horse, rode to the edge of town, tied him and went up to Market street, bought a fifty pound box of tobacco, took it on my shoulder, went back, mounted rny horse and put off for camp I knew the Captain would ask me after Bridgert’ health and I concluded I better see him before I went back, go I rode by his house and told him what 1 had done and made things straight with him, and earned the tobacco to the men In a lew weeks it was out again and I asked the Captain to iat me go after more tobacco. He says "sergeant, if you will promise to do just as you did before you can go.” I promised and it is needless to ray I carried out my promise to the letter 1 never did let the Captain know that T had been in the fever stricken city, for he would have Riven me severe punishment if he had known it. It was a wonder 1 did not get the fever. The day we broke camp to go to Wrightsville we had two men. Jessie and William Robinson (broth ers) sick in camp with high fever that we supposed was bilious. I helped them into an amublanee and drove them to the hospital in Wil mington It turned out that both these men had yellow fever In one of my trips into Wilmington that day I saw the city carts haulin' dirt from the1 gas works, putting a card load at each street corn«r as disinfectants. I took a lot of that uirt and put in my pockets and rub bed a lot of it in my hair I bpd it on me so strong that when I got to Amp the men complained of me. Haiti 1 smelt like the gas works. Whether this helped me to escape* the fever I cannot say I only kr.ovv; I did not have it and did not fer-1 j but little fear of the disease I Julian S. Fields Drowned Saturday Night in Accident Indian Syrinx* Tnonc Man Drown ed While Fishing at William* Mill WiUt Friend* Funeral services lor Julian C. Field*. 28, Wayne county farmer, who was drowned about 10:30 Sat urday night while fishing with a party of friends in Williams’ mi", pand near Mt. Olive, were conduct ed at the home in Indian Springs township Sunday afternoon. The Rev. Mr. Howard, pastor of Indian Springs Methodist church, was in charge. Interment was in the fam ily cemetery. E. G Kilpatrick, brother-in-law of Fields, narrowly escaped drown ing when the small rowboat in which the two were Ashing overturned in deep water. Other members of the fishing party icscued Kilpatrick with great difficulty on account of the quantity of moss growing in the pond. It was forty-five minutes before Dave King of Mt. Olive succeeded in locating Fields' bdoy. Mr. Fields is survived by his widow, who was before her mar- j riage Miss Mabel Kilpatrick of Wayne county; two children, J. c. Jr., and Carolyn; two brothers, J. W. Fields of Goldsboro, and A C. Fields, of Fremont; and one sister, Mrs. Russell Whitfield of Mount Olive.

I The Coach >T BE* AMES Associated Newspaper*, w.si; Service, IT WAS bad enough, Roger Ker rick decided, to lore one's girl and flunk one study without a per fectly fatuous coach coming along to bawl one out in front of tbc lean and make a general nuisonca of himself nosing into affairs that were none of hi* business' Just a* if one wasn’t likely to flunk an exam. Or stay out late a few nights. Life, h« decided, had deteriorated to a pretty mess when a fellow couldn't even see his girl and go to a few shows without getting posted. Most likely that prosey old coach had seen him with Diana and was plain Jealous. Diana was always gay. he reflect ed; he couldn't recall ever having seen her cross or Impatient with him, or with er.y one for that mat ter. She made all her classes regu larly and kept a fairly decent aver age, although the timaa she was called down In class for unprepared ness was noticeable. But did ahe answer back? Not so you’d notice It. Di wiin i me cranny cori. u any one wished to think harshly of bar they wars welcome, for all she cared' Of course. DI wasn't any thing lih« Betty. Betty was poor and had no sport car or sporty clothes to go with it, and Betty not only won wonderful mark* and hon ors, but she had made the Phi Mu and was being urged to join the Epsilons as well, besides being a guard on the basketball team and a runnerup for the tennis champion ship of the school. And the greatest difficulty with Betty was that the expected too much of a fellow. Not tha tort of things Di expected; not candy and movies and dances and dinners. Rather, Betty expected him to go out and win hts letter the first year by spectacular play; or win aucb high marks that he got some sort of medal. And jo he smiled warmly upon Di and reluctantly admitted that be had to stay in and bone up on Eng lish, adding that the fool coach threatened to remove him from the i team if he got another seventy! "Why. you poor lamb, you!” ex claimed Di in her high, shrill voice. “Come over to iny flat and have a bite to eat and let's talk it over.” But Betty Gee. Betty was dif ferent. Betty wouldn't let you have a sandwich and rake and ginger ale plus In the afternoon, not much! She’d dig out a few oranges and some other fruit and advise adher ence to diet rules as per the coach. And Betty wasn't wise to hcrrelf 1 the way Di whs. Betty was un ashamed of the dusting of fine gold en freckles across the bridge of her small nose; she called them tennis crolx de guerres. And she never used powder or rouge or any other i makeup. Somehow most ol Betty was un comfortable, he decided. For Di did not play tennis; it was messy! She hated golf; one had to practice too much. Riding horseback was too bard. And swimming—ugh! Eels end fish and bugs. So Di did none of them—much too messy. And Roger basked in the comfort able warmth of her smile without regretting too much his break with Betty. At seven he started home toward the boarding house where the crew lived, his thoughts happy and his mind pleasantly exhilarated by the plus ginger ale, and at Elm and Center streets an orange car whirred out from the murk of the avenue where Di lived and he felt a | sharp pain and then started falling Immeasurable distances through space. Di had run over him going at fifty-mile speed—it was too much trouble to watch out lor every lay walking pedestrian. He awoke in the college infirmary and Betty sat beside him holding his ^and tightly with one hand and holding a Latin grammar and | grinding out passages of Virgil from a book propped on a chair in *_tiAK Tin u)!it AftnCAlniK fit a great weight lifted from his heart and mind and vaguely recalled hav ing talked a great deal—wondered if ha had been delirious. After a while he thought of Diana and- he wondered why he wasn’t disappoint ed not to care any more for her, and then it struck him as ludicrous that be should know that he didn’t care for her without arriving at the decision through the usual devious j method of thinking. Betty saw that his eyelids were fluttering; he couldn't fake unconsciousness any more, so he opened his eyes and asked what happened. “A girl ran you down over on Center street—only a slight scalp wound. Rog; you can get right after your English tomorrow. And it may save your life—this week in bed.’’ "You darned little coachl” he muttered, bringing her hand up to his lips. ‘‘All you do Is worry about me and my grade,’’ and his eyes told her what ha couldn't say until he had won the right to ask her. "Did you think I’d bother to— coach—you if I didn't care?” she said softly, turning away to blink the unwilling tears from her lovely gray eyes. And just then the nurse came In with a box of flowers from the coach and a cheery note from the crew. Rog's eyes dimmed as he turned to Betty and It didn t occur to him to wonder why Di did not coma; he knew she loathed hospitals. . Negro Woman Shoots Two Here on Monday Fannie Carrawuy McArthur, 3a. regress, is in the Wayne jail charg ed with shooting her husband's son,! Willie I.ee McArthur, 0, and The->-‘ dore Daniels, 34. negro, at the.' home on North James street Mon I day night. Walter McArthur, hus band of the woman, is in jail as a material witness.

It was said that the woman, in a fit of jealousy about another .wo man, tried to shoot her husband, but the bullet went wild. Mayor and Aldermen! Reelected on Monday Mayor J. H Hill was re-elected without opposition in the Goldsboro city election Monday, having aerved twelve year* as mayor.
