North Carolinians bave long been
proud to remember with honor. Henry
Wyatt, of Company A. First North
Carolina Regiment, and to recall that
through him: North Carolina. sled the
first blood on the battle fields of Vir-
ginia, Junie 10, 1361. Now comes an
intimation that he was not a native of |
North Carolina. Will some one, tell the
{uth about it? Perhaps at this day
tie truth carbe fouad anly in Edge-
combe, the. county ia whichT he enlist-
ed."~The Charlotte Observer.
This qvestion was discussed by
years ago. Qur recollection is that it
was shown that young Wyatt was a
North Carolinian by birth, but bad
lived in Richmond several ye rs. He
was in Noth Carolina when the war
breke out and there enlisted.
We believe Wyatt was not the first
Contederate soldier kitled by the Fed-
eral troops'in Virginia; but.we think it
has been, established that he was first
soldier killed. in this) State in line of
battle. He had near relatives ane many
dear friends in Richmond, and his body
is butiea in Holly wood Cemetery: here.
We write from memory-"-not a safe
thing to dowhere a historical point is
i volved, but we venture to do it, rather
than search our files for many years |
past."Richmond Dispatch,
Perhaps the ~RerLECTOR can give
these brethren some light upon this
question, not of its own knowledge but}
from people tamiliar with the circum-
alanuces.
Henry Wyatt was not a pative ot
North Caroliva, but was born in the
House as Wide as His Boby.

Joseph Richardson, an eecen-
tric millionaire, died here today .
| He made his fortune in railroad
building and was closely sassoci-
ated with the Vanderbilts and
Geulds. He constructed large
sections of the Union Pacific,
Missouri Pacific, Iron Mountain
and Mexican Central Railroads-
He came as a poor boy from
England. Mr. Richardson's for-
tune las been estimated at $20,-
000,000. | |
He dressed more like a tramp
I than a wealthy man and lived and
died in a stone house which was
only tive feet wide and three
stories high. It was built because
the surrounding property owners
refused to meet RichardsonTs
terms for the narrow lot. He
afterwards refused fabulous sums
for the little piece of ground on
which his house stood, amid the
tall bnildings on the best part ~of
Lexington avenue.
He wili be buried in a coffin he
sélected 32 years ago. It is com-
posed of one-in¢t plank. His
greatest boast was, oI am a
workingman. I want no fuss

Trinity Has a Future,
Dr. Kilgore, in speaking of the
things accomplished at Trinity
during the year, yesterday,
among other things, spoke of the
increasing prosperity ot Trinity
College and her bright outlook
for the future. He stated that
during the past year gifts to the
amount of $140,000 haye been do

most notable of which, of course,
was the gift of $100,060 from Mr.

Henry Wyatt grew up in Greenville,
and was nearly grown when the war
came on. When companies were be-
ing organized here he wauted to join
one of of them but his father objected
because of his age, Young Wyatt!
then ran away and went to Tarboro
where he joined a company.

Writing the Editor.
In conversation recently with
the editor of .one of the English
magazines Mr. Munsey learned
that it is the custom with the
English people to keep them-
selves in close touch with the
publications they subscribe to,
That is to say, they write to the
publisher with a frequency and
frankness that the American
public never dreams of. ~!hese

A gentleman from Vance town-

not far from the Union county

The chiidTs grandmother, discov-

found that the child had bitten

broken off some distance from the

into the hollow of the stem."
