Of course the Sou man's excuse will be that his artist is sick. The tumble in the price of cotton may a good thing for the farmers, as it will to that extent lessen the temptation to over-plant for this year's crop. The way big cotton fleecing each other on the New York exchange may be giving some comfort to the small fellows throughout the country who they have been picking.

There seems to be some mys tery attached to the disappear of one J. A Walston, who has been living in Long Acre township, this county. He mys- disappeared on July and since that time no tidings of him can be ascertained by his relatives or friends. Mr. is an ex-Confederate and is about years of age. His son, Mr. John W. Walston, of Pitt county, and others, have been looking for him and en- to secure information leading to his location since his disappearance; so far they have been unsuccessful. Mr. Walston was born and reared in Pitt county. He has a daughter re- siding in Falkland, N. C. Two other children are living in Pitt county. His son has searched everywhere for his father, but without success. Walston was frequently seen on the streets of the city and was conspicuous for always a bag thrown across his shoulders. Frequently in the winter time he could be seen barefooted. His disappearance cannot be accounted for. Wash- News. King's Cross Roads, Jan. J. C.

Lawson Fleming was born in the county of Pitt, m the 1st, day of November, 1867. parents were Leonidas and Fleming. He came of a sturdy, honest, industrious, noble ancestry, and he inherited their sterling qualities. He was reared upon the farm and grew to manhood with the well oped body and independence which cornea to men possessed of such advantages. In his child- hood he attended the country schools, and there learned the advantages and disadvantages which confront the country boy in bis quest of an education. Later he attended the Greenville academy, then under the man- of that devoted tor and friend of young men. Prof. W. H. From the Greenville academy went to Wake Forest college where he laid still deeper the foundations upon Which he in after years. After leaving Wake Forest, he taught school for a year and then read law with Latham Skinner at Greenville, and at the University Law school He was admitted to the bar in 1892, and locating in Greenville, he soon entered upon a lucrative practice which steadily increased; and at the time of his death, he was in the full enjoyment of a large practice in the Superior. Supreme, and Federal courts. As a lawyer, he was true- and faithful to his C. A. White. His wife and three bright, child- now survive him. As citizen, lawyer, and tor, James L. acted well and honorably his part; and in each and all thee relations he steadily grew in favor with his fellow men.
