INVESTIGATION IN
VIRGINIA MAN'S
DEATH CONTINUES
Suicide Motive May Be Sought in
View of Big Life Insurance
Policies
The will of Charles Hurst Mar
tin, Virginia man, whose body was
recovered from a canal at Fair
field three weeks ago, has been
probated in the courthouse at
Rocky Mount, Va., and his estate
is valued at only SI,OOO, real and
personal property. It makes no
mention of any life insurance car
ried by him, and leaves his prop
erty to his wife and son.
Investigation by insurance men
continues into circumstances lead
ing to his death. Mr. Martin had
come to Fairfield on April 5, a few
days after buying a $50,000 life
insurance policy, with double in
demnity clause. It meant SIOO,OOO
for accidental death. His total life
insurance was reported at a quar
ter million dollars.
Early on Sunday morning, April
6, he left Lindsay Sadler’s Motel
at Fairfield, where he had spent
the night, saying he would return
shortly for breakfast. He was not
seen until his body was brought un
from the bottom of the Fairfield
steamboat canal on Sunday, April
13.
The body was inside the 1950
Plymouth which Mr. Martin had
borrowed from a dealer in Martins
ville, Va., saying he had to make
a quick business trip to North
Carolina while his Cadillac was
being repaired.
It developed his Cadillac was in
hock for $1,700 and he was three
months behind in his payment.
Also he was being sought by Fed
eral officers in connection with a
big distillery operation in Balti
more.
His wife reported to officers
that she dreamed he was dead in
the bottom of a canal. She and
Mr. Martin had both lived at Fair
field two years ago.
His son and Jim Watson of
Fairfield saw tire marks on the
road, which indicated a northbound
car had run sos the road some two
miles north of Fairfield. They lo
cated the car by punching around
with a pole.
Jesse Taylor, Belhaven garage
man lifted the car from the deep
canal, and inside was found Mr.
Martin’s body.
Mr. Taylor says there was noth
ing apparently wrong mechanical
ly with the car, other than the
left front tire had gone flat during
the week from a slow leak. Also
that brake fluid had leaked out.
It would have taken a right hand
flat to run the car overboard.
Mr. Martin had been a big oper
ator in trucking, lumbering, farm
ing and real estate development
in Sydnorsville, Va. and nearby
points.
STATEMENT BY
DAVID STICK
FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER
ATLANTIC TOWNSHIP
I have filed as a candidate'
for Commissioner from Atlantic!
Township subject to the Demo-1
cratic primary.
I am associated with no political |
clique, nor am I bound by promises
to any individual or special group,
and except for my wife no one
has been consulted concerning my
candidacy.
In the event the voters of Dare
County should elect me to this
position, I promise them simply
that I will not come under the
domination of any so-called politi
cal leader; that I will do my best
to approach each new problem
with an open mind; that I will
make my final decision in each
instance on the basis of what I
feel is best for the prosperity,
progress and well being of Dare
County as a whole; that I will
state my position clearly on each
issue as it arises; and that I will
conduct my public business in pub
lic and not behind closed doors.
As a resident of Dare County
since 1929 I have attempted to
participate in civic activities when
ever called on, to keep well inform
ed on county affairs, and to learn
as much as I could about the pres
ent and future needs of the county.
I feel that my past experience as
a reporter covering the county
government in Manteo, the State
Capitol in Raleigh, and the Na
tional Capitol in Washington, and
as a writer concentrating on the
history of Dare County, would be
useful to a member of the Board
of County Commissioners.
I do not solicit the vote of any
individual who would expect spe
cial consideration from me in ex
change for such support.
On the basis of the above state
ment I submit my name to the
voters of Dare County.

WATERWAYS WILL CONTINUE TO BRING
TREASURE TO THE PAMLICO REGION
OSfck
HOME INDUSTRY, and HOME RESOURCEFULNESS should be
watchwords for progress for any region on which* nature has smiled so
favorably as upon the Pungo-Pamlico area of the N. C. Coastland.
From earliest days our waterways have yielded rich treasures in fish
and oysters; these waters have borne our commerce in and out when
the rich harvest of the forests were shipped northward from the lum
ber mills, and our supplies came in at low rates.
Our waters will continue to bring us profits, if we adapt them to
today’s needs. For every fishing or oyster boat that a depleted industry
has caused to depart these waters, there have come a dozen other craft,
making their way to and from New York and Florida and points in be
tween. Often they stop over at our inland waterway points, and the
business from yachts is now rapidly increasing in importance in our
income. Belhaven is doing much to capitalize on the needs of boatmen,
what railways and marinas, its hotels and stores get new
business. Newest accommodation for yachts in Belhaven are the greatly
improved and enlarged facilities of the Jordan Oil Company, now near
completion.
CRAFT SHOP SPONSORED BY
ST. ANDREWS AUXILIARY
For some time, there has been
an increasing demand from the
tourists to. this area, for locally
made crafts. The visitors are
especially interested in articles
made by the native people—gifts
which are indicative of this area
and have a flavor of the sea.
The “Native Craft” Shop will
open on' June first in Manteo,
across from the Court House, and
will operate during the coming
summer months. The shop will be
sponsored by the Woman’s Auxil
iary of St. Andrews by the Sea,
Episcopal Church in Nags Head.
The women of the church have
as their motive, a desire to stimu
late in the people living on the
Outer Banks, air interest in the
making of handcrafts, not only as
a source of earnings, but as a
worthwhile occupation of their
spare time, particularly during the
long months of winter.
Many people in this area are
skilled in working with their hands,
but have never had a market for
their crafts. Many more would like
to learn the various crafts, but
have never had an opportunity to
discover for themselves the fasci
nation of turning out attractive
and useful articles at practically
no cost.
The “Native Craft” shop will
serve as a market for crafts made
not only in this area, but from
other localities as well. All articles
will be accepted for sale on con
signment only.

hand weaving, braided cotton rugs,

SPEEDING MOST
EXPENSIVE THING
DRIVER MAY DO
Raleigh.—Some Tar Heel motor
ists seem to feel a childish urge
now and then to show off by
tramping on the gas and roaring
down the highway at breakneck
speed, Major W. B. Lentz of the
State Highway Patrol declared this
week.
“But, if these show off motorists
would consider what their speeding
is costing them in the terms of
dollars, it might make better and
more careful drivers out of them,”
he added.
Major Lentz is head of the pa
trol’s communications and trans
portion division. He was speaking
in behalf of the Motor Vehicles De
partment’s year around campaign
against excessive speed.
“The slogan ‘Speeders Lose’ is
true in every sense of the word,”
Major Lentz said. “Not only do
speeders endanger often lose
their lives, but they always lose
money. At the pocketbook level,
driving costs go up every time the
driver steps too hard on the accel
erator.”
The most immediate added ex
penditure is for gas and oil, he
pointed out. When speed is increas
ed from 40 to 65 miles an hour
(illegal in North Carolina), gaso
line. costs per mile jump almost
30 per cent. The amount of oil
consumed goes up almost four
times for the same increase in
speed.
“Tires will wear out much faster,
when a car is driven at high
speed,” Major Lentz said. “Wear
and tear on tires is two and one
half times more per mile at 65
miles an hour than at 40. And high
speed driving depreciates a car
more rapidly, too.”
The patrol executive pointed out
that used car dealers often stress
the good treatment given a car
they are offering for sale. They
like to emphasize the conservative
speed at which the car has been
operated—a fact usually obvious to
the prospective buyer because of
the good condition of the car.
“Speed plays a definite part in
the car life—and lower operating
speeds make your car worth more,”
he said.
“When the Motor Vehicles De
partment stresses safe speed year
in and year out, it is to help you,
the driver, save —your pocketbook
and your life,” he concluded.
CARD OF THANKS
I wish to extend my heartful
thanks to the many friends for
their visits, cards, flowers, and
prayers during my stay in the Al
bemarle Hospital. Thanks to every
one

FIRST 1958 CHANNEL BASS
LANDED IN OREGON INLET
The first channel bass catyh of
the 1958 season by anglers trolling
at Oregon Inlet was made on Sun
day, April 27 by John Wood and
Joe E. Green of Princess Anne,
Va. They were fishing with Capt.
Omie Tillett aboard his cruiser
“Jerry Jr.” Also aboard to see the
first catches made were Captains
Chester and Gilbert Tillett.
The Princess Anne anglers each
landed two large channel bass—
the legal limit for this salt water
game fish that has brought fame
to the Dare Coast waters in the
piscatorial world. They ranged
from 26 to 44 pounds each. The
anglers were using Pfleuger No.
7 spoons, a popular trolling bait
for big channel bass at Oregon In
let.
Monday Catch
On Monday, also from Capt. Til
lett’s Jerry Jr., two Columbus,
Ohio, anglers, Paul Mosley and
Robert Mayer each boated their
limit of channel bass ranging from
30 to 45 pounds each. They too
were using Pfleuger spoons.
The Columbus anglers planned
to tiy for channel bass again on
Wednesday but a shift of the wind
made inlet trolling unfavorable so
they went to Kitty Hawk Bay in
the Colington section and caught
four - largemouth bass, of fair size,
using Johnson Silver Spoons and
porkrind as lures.
