Mr John B Prockett died
suddenly Wednesday at rnrds
- j
night at his home on Fearing
street. Mr. Brockett was a very
prominent and useful citizen of
Elizabeth City and has been
quite successful in his business
affairs since locating here, hav
ing moved to this place when
quite young from Camden Co.
He always took an active part
in anything that would help to
build the town. He was ex
ceedingly charitable and the
general expression f sorrow
er in tne ribs. His condition is
serious.
The safe on which the burs
glars were working was in the
cotton office, and working was
in the cotton mills office, and it
is supposed that the burglars
thought that the post office
money and stamps, as well as
the funds of the manufacturing
concern, were in thrs sale The
post office money was in anoth
er safe. The Faruuinsville Cot
ton Mills' safe contained about
50, the other safe about $2. By
the time the men were discover
ed, several holes bad been drill
ed in the safe. These had been
filled with dynamite and the
fuses attached.
