THE HONORED DEAD.
in
the unveiling of the tablet, in
MEMORY Or THE HON. JUDGES OF
EDENTON, AT THE COURT
HOUSE MONDAY, APRIL
4TH.
Monday last, the 4th inst, was a
day lon to be remembered in the
history nf thin ancient and honored
town, the occasion of a beautiful
marble tablet in the Court House
4 'To the Honorable Judges, of Eden
ton, N. C," upon which we see in
scribed the following names:
Christopher Gale,
James I red oil. Sr.
James Irdeil, Jr.
Augustus Moore,
Robert II. Heath,
Thomas C. Manning,
Edmund W.Jones,
William A. Moore,
Henry A. Gilliam,
For some time past it has been a
cherished wish of some patriot 'ladios
living hero, daughters of the Hon.
Aug Moore and sister
to the late Hon. Wm. A. Moore, to
offer some appropriate memorial to
the memory of their distinguished
fattier and brother. When the
thought occoured to them that as a
number of others had gone from this
historic town to adorn not only the
Bench of this State but the highest
judicial seats in other States, as well
as the Supreme Court of the United
States, it would bo eminently proper
to communicate their wi8h and pur
pose to those descendents of other
Edenton Judges whom they knew
tuat they might unite with them in
. -. . A - . - I . 1 . I
presenting me memorial mat w&s
unveiled on Monday.
Letters were accordingly written
to various persons living now in
different parts ot the Union, who are
tlio lineal representatives of the dis
tinguished names inscribed on the
t iblet, inviting their co-operation Jin
their patriotic effort. Favorable
responses were received from several
and a handsome fund having been
collected the commission to execute
thy work was given co Mr. Jno. D.
Couper of Norfolk, Va., who gave
them. in truth a most beautiful and
ar istic piece of workmanship. It
wm.s recently received and placed in
rear of the Judges seat on the
morning of Monday last.
Notice of the ceromonies to take
p'ace at 3 p. m. was given and letters
of invitation to the bar of this section
and the Supreme Court and Judges
throughout tbi State to attend was
duly extended.
At the appointed hour. His Honor,
Judge Shuford, having kindly con
sented to suspend the session of his
Court until the exercises were con
cluded, the Court House was well
filled with a large and intelligent
audience to witness the ceremony
Hon. W. D. Prudcn, in a felic
itious manner presented the tablet,
dwelling briefly but forcibly n the
lives and character of many of the
honored names chiselled upon the
marble, and concluded by introduc
ing Thos. S. Armistead Esq. of Ply
mouth, who hid accepted the invi
tation, to receive it. Miss Mary
Armistead Righton, a grand daughter
of Judge Aug Moore, drew aside tha
veil when the beautiful gift stood
unveiled to the admiration of the
assembly.
Mr. Armistead received the mem
orial for the town of Edenton, com
mending the patriotic spirit which
prompted its erection, deploring that
North CarolimVbsd preserved so few
testimonials in monument or tablet
of her reat events and honored dead
anil nrf.Dz as a solemn and honored
duty which we ove to ourselves and
to the State to discharge, that tho
example eel by Edenton in the days
exercises should be followed through-
lout the State, until every where in
i North. Carolina vrhero sreat aQd heroic
jiDcidcat had birth or honored names
I have lived, some shaft of stoae or

should arise to keep the memory of

After sinking the Old North State
.the audience dispersed, and His
Honor and Solictor Blount resumed
the duties rf the Court.
What a debt of gratitude the world
owes to euch men as Drs. Ayers and
Tenner the latter for'tue great dis

Let us Reason.
If any one who suffers from Rheu
matism would stop and reason a mo
ment betore they decido to purchase
some remedy, they could not he'p
avoid any so-ca'ied care that is sold
for 81. t Figuring the retailers, the
jobbers, and the manufacturers profits
out of thai soli'arv dillar, and there)
is left not over 20 cents for the medi
cine. Aside from its reputation, and
the fact, Dr. Druuimodd's Lightning
Remedy appeals to one's good sense.
The price is ,35 per bottle, and to any
one suffering from Rhsuaaalism it is
Cj
as cheap as it is ood and effective.
