J. M. Vaughn last week showed us an interesting relic. It was an |old bil for sundries purchased at a general store in North Carolina, dated March 21, 1776, and was on paper bearing the English tax stamp. Among the entries were; 12 needles, 6 pence; paper pins, 1 shilling, 4 pence; 100 nails, penoe. It was evidently not a dry county as there were several en- tries of runi which was 1 shilling, 6 pence per pint. Salt was 3 shil- lings per peck and powder 9 shil- lings per pound. Collections must have been slow in those days as the account ran from March 21, 1767 until some- time 1771 before it was all paid. Assistant of Commerce and Labor Killed in ‘Auto Lord Mayor of London To British People to Starving in Belglum. London, Sept. 24., (2:10 a. m.) +-The lord mayor of London to- day appeals to the British people to come to the aid of the starving people in Belguim, of whom; he says, a million and a half are ut- terly destitute. ‘We are not yet half awake to the tragedy of Belguim,’”’ says the appeal. ‘Even Mr. Hoover’s wonderful efficient neutral com- mittee cannot feed one and a half million destitute people on less than 5 pence per head per day, which amounts to no! less a sum than 218,570 pounds ($1,092,850) per day. “T am convinced that the city of London will not rest content until it has taken the place it us- ually occupies in every great be- nevolent movement.”’ The lord mayor then announced the formation of a strong commit- tee, including Vis¢ount Bryce and a host of other prominent men, to manage tht fund, and appeals. to people of every class to subscribe, “There is no doubt if food is not sent,’’ the lord mayor adds, “the Germans will allow the Bel: giums to starve.or will shoot them down if hunger riots occur.” Prominent Montrose Citizen Dead |} “Jas.
