Correction
The Herald wishes to correct a
mistake In regards to the account of
Mr. W. E. Owen's death. The information
at the time of his death was
that they were T. \\\ Instead of W.
E. as obtained from his Navy discharge
and his widow.
Mr. Owen was a man of many,
friends. The tribute of his many
trienicit were spoken "wttli floMtcs
and the warm sympathy extended to
bis family.
Surviving are his widotv, four
sons, Russell, Elmer, Oscar and
Cliarlcs. all of Ki ngs Mountain, and
one- daughter, Mib. Virginia Owen
Ford, also of Kings Mountain. ' -3
C. E. Lucas of Swansce. S. C., was
the driver of the car that crashed
to the one driven by Mr. Owen.
The Herald regrets the . error of
the initials of Mr, Owen.
