Ti his doubt sadden the heart of many who knew |0gal- him as a soldier. During the last days of the ^ig in- Confederacy he was chief actor in a somewhat f0rt. his thrilling incident that occurred near Golds"Iflsbboro, N. C. It is known to some of us as the

"White horse fight" and Is as full of interest ^rand to those who engaged In it, as Is the "whitet hat horse sermon" has to many of Associate Re- rathey formed Presbyterians. For several days the cflThey pickets of the 1st North Carolina cavalry 8lcon- came in wounded-many with sabre cuts; c|intry they explained it by saying they were being iajllnh- badly used up by a finely mounted New York ^1955. regiment that charged their pickets every af

:vllle evening led by a man riding a white horse. efGeneral Hampton relieved the 1st North Car- p(

esers, olina cavalry with 2od South Carolina cavaihighry. We were well warned as to what werecia- might expect about 4 p. id. and that the while rLAfter horse rider would be In the lead. Sure wller & enough at the usual hour five or six hundrediture, strong swooped down upon fifteen or twenty .r»t be- of us, shooting and yelling like Hying demgoodons. Seeing T.J.

Tor (ho State Convention. Iilltor Press and Banner: ^It is conceded by the dominant party thatle political outlook is somewhat gloomyoking.Questions are propounded and opinnsaired profusely as to the final destiny ofle State government.
