Saved money may someday be spent, but
this statement cannot be reversed. Spent
money never can be saved—by you!
But the money you spend, which ought to
have been saved, will circulate until it
reaches the hands of someone who does
save—then he will be using the dollar you
should have put away.
There’s no better habit than the saving
habit—and it’s easy to acquire once .you’re
started. A dollar will open an account
here.

‘ Miss Roberta Moore and Mrs. R.
N. Hunter, of Hillcrest, N. C., were
.investigating the case were shocke
almost off their feet this morning
when unexpected developments prov
ed their carefully drawn conclusions
erroneous and that Hamlin was in
Lancaster, and very much alive.
Hamlin’s whereabouts were ascer
tained through information secured
from the chief of police of Danville,
Va., which turned out to be the jewel
er’s home.
In the face of a strong chain of
circumstantial evidence that he Jiad
come to his death in a wood near
York last summer and that his
bleached bones now rest in a sack
here, the jeweler insisted in a tele
phone conversation with an officer
here this morning that he was still
in the flesh. This surprising devel
opment threw away the absorbing de
tective game that has been played
here for a week and brought chagrin
to local ratiocinative talent.
As for Hamlin, his whereabouts
were discovered in the nick for time
for he was in imminent danger of
being officially pronounced dead by
a coroner's jury. He accounted for
the finding of his jewelry in the
handbag beside the skeleton by ex
plaining that a considerable amount
of his jewelry had been stolen dur
ing his stay here last summer. This
jewelry constituted one of the prin
cipal links in the chain of evidence
that appeared to conclusively estab
lish the fact that Hamlin and the
dead man were one and the same,
the proof being so strong that the
most conservative investigators were
convinced. Of course there was much
more evidence.
That the dead man whose skele
ton was found near York several
days ago was none other than the
notorious Mills Moore, fugitlve lslay^

the Week-end guests of Miss Minnie
Moore.
Miss Sarah Hargrove spent Sunday
in Greenville with friends.
er of Policeman T. R. Peninger, of
Sharon, in September, 1918, is the
opinion advanced by Mills Moore’s
brother, in a letter to Sheriff Fred
E. Quinn. The Williamston man
•puts forward the theory that Mills
Moore came back to York and was
secretly lynched.
Mills Moore shot and killed Po
liceman Peninger while the latter
was serving a warrant on him for
disorderly conduct, Frank Moore,
brother of-Mills- Moore, -holding & re
volver on bystanders to prevent in
terference. With drawn revolvers
the two men backed off and took
to the woods, making a getaway.
Mills Moore was ngver captured, but
a year or more ago Frank Moore
was apprehended in Raleigh, N. C.,
brought back here and convicted of
complicity in the killing, for which
he was sentenced to serve ten years.
He escaped from the chain gang,
however, after serving a short time,
and has not since been heard of.
A man thought to be Mills Moore
was arrested in Mississippi and
brought here last spring, but it turn
ed out to be a case of mistaken
identity. Mills Moore formerly lived
in Greenville, where he has a crim
inal record, it is said, and in Shel
by, N. C., where he served a term on
the chain gang. But that the man
who came to his death in the forest
last summer is Mills Moore is a bit
too far fetched to be given serious
consideration here and Sheriff Fred
E. Quinn only smiles when queried
about the matter. With nineteen
years’ experience in dealing with
criminals, he known that a favorite
device to throw officers off the track
Of a fugitive is to attempt to” con
vince them that the person wanted
has shuffled off this mortal coil.
