Turner Huhinson.
Says the Monroe Enquirer: A yea
ago, during the terrible scourgi
of influenza, seven members of tie
family of Mr. Charles Querry, of San
dy Ridge township, were stricken
A son and two daughters died. A
' one time there was not one under th<
roof of that home able to civo :
drink of water to another. The wholi
neighborhood was panic stricken
with the exception of Turner Robin
son. colored, and his wife. They lTv
ed near the Querry's, and, learning
conditions, they threw fear to th<
winds, left their own children witl
the aged mother of the father ant
vent to the stricken home of theii
white neighbor and there in the verj
gateway of death battled for four Ion?
veeks with the disease. They spent
deepless nights, prepared the meals
built the fires, fed the stock, administered
the medicine and when death
'ante they prepared the bodies foi
burial and never left until some mem
bers of Mr. Querry's family were up
and able to attend to the sick ones
Robinson and his wife did not do theli
work for reward, but were moved by
that high devotion to duty whlcli
makes the patriot "march like a bride
groom to the belching cannon's
mouth." A few days ago fire came
and destroyed the humble home in
which Turner Robinson and bis family
lived and they saved nothing but a
bed and a quilt or two from It. Robinson's
mother is eighty years o)
and is helpless so far as making a
living is concerned and she lives with
him and ho has not done like some
white men in far better circumstances
than he is have done, sent ihe old
mother to the county home. Hut
enough has been said about Turner
Robinson. Something should be done
for him and his family. They are
worthy of it. For one the Knqulrer
man does not want to appear at that
great covin where the questions put
to his uncovered soul will be about
giving loaves of bread, cups of water
and clothing to the needy ones rather
than about creeds and puzzling questions
of theology, until he has helped
Turner Robinson and his folks a little
along the rough way they are going.
Common Pleas Court Next Week.
The court of general sessions having
adjourned Thursday night when
it was to have taken up the whole of

convene next Monday, October 27.
No court is being held this week

in the outcome throughout the Carolinas.
The recall of the mayor and
some of the commissioners was asked

Next Sunday, October 26, Is the ^
time for running back the clocks an ^
hour, the daylight saving law ceasing lie
at midnight on the last Sunday in ^
October. Promiscuous turning back
r of the hands of the clock should be 3Q
e avoided as it damages the running bn
? gear of the machine and will perhaps
. land it with the repair man. The safe
plan is to stop the clock for an hour ifc
