 FOREWORD 
 
 N the return to his home city for the 
 preparation of the drawings and 
 sketches for "WHO'S WHO IN 
 RALEIGH," the author has known pleasure 
 and pain — pleasure, because of the realization 
 of an early desire to try his hand on the like- 
 nesses of the men whose faces were the first the 
 artist knew, and because of the compliment each 
 of them has paid to him by their moral and 
 financial support in making this work a success; 
 pain, because this will be the author's farewell 
 cartooning to the city of his childhood and the 
 people who first lent encouragement and confi- 
 dence. 
 
 The efifort has been to reflect the person- 
 ality of the men ' 'off guard. ' ' Whether success 
 has been realized is left to you.

 RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 
 
 WiiKx Qvv.F.^ Elizabeth, surrounded by her courtiers, was lialted 
 bv a mud jmddle in Ikt )iath Sir Walter Raleigh realized tiie emergency. 
 He didn't go into any leughty discussiou as to whetiicr the queen should 
 take another jiath or wait until the puddle had dried. Instead he took 
 off his coat, spread it over the mud, and thereby became a great favorite 
 with her majesty and a much talked of personage for centuries after. 
 That sjiirit of "take oft' your coat and do it now," first evinced by Sir 
 Waller Rah'ifih, was handed down wilii the name to the Capital City 
 of North Carolina. Xot only iiave her sons displayed the same chival- 
 rous instinct tliat marked the beginning of the rise to fame of Sir Walter 
 Raleigh, hut they h;ae also literally taken oft their coats and tackled 
 ])robleins, large and small, with resourcefulness ty])ieal of the name. 
 
 The city of Raleigh dates its history back to the year 1792 when a 
 l)oard of commissioners, ap]iointed by tlie Legislature of North f^irolina. 
 
purc'liased a tluiusaiid acres, at what was then called Wake Court-house, 
 for the location of a State capital. The plan of the city was adopted in 
 tlie same year. In 1857 the corporate limits were extended a quarter of 
 a mile in each direction. Later extensions have given the city an area nf 
 four square miles. 
 
 Raleigh is the ediU'ational center of Xoi-tli Carolina, and is surpassed 
 by few cities in the counti'v in educational interests, there being twentv- 
 eight institutions of learning located here. Among the most |)rominent 
 are the North Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical College, St. Mary's 
 College, Peace Institute, and Meredith College, the last three, schools 
 for girls. 
 
 In addition to the State Capitol the city is graced hy the State 
 Building, recently erected ; the State Agricultural Department and State 
 Museum, the Governor's Mansion, the Xorth Carolina Confederate 
 Soldiers' Home, the North Carolina Experiment Station, and the State 
 Fair Grounds. Here also are located the State Hospital, State Peniten- 
 tiary, State School for the white blind and the State School for the 
 negro deaf mutes and Mind. 
 
 Ealeigh, which can he reached by four railroads, has five first-class 
 iiotels, two ]:)ublic libra I'ies, a scoi-e of churches and foni'teeu niiles of 
 street railway lines. Prominent anunig her public buildings are the 
 City Auditorium, the Federal Building, and the Wake County Court- 
 house Building, buili (ui the site where stood the court-house of a 
 hundred years ago. 
 
 Wide awake, liustling and progressive, Kaleigh's advance has been 
 steady in coniniei'cial as well as dther lines of progress. There are 
 located iiere thi'ee cotton mills, a fertilizer woi-ks, hosiery mills, an iron 
 works, now engaged in making aniniunition for the Uniteii States 
 (Jovernment, and nniny lesser industries. Surrounded by a rich farming 
 district, the chief crops of which are cotton and tobacco, the citv is 
 nevei-theless not wholly ile|iendent upon farming interests. Her eighl 
 liaiiking institutions have an average of a millinu dollars cacli in de- 
 posits. 
 
 Thei'e are never any strangers in Kaleigh. When I he wayfarer enters 
 her gales he is at once matle to feel that he is among friends whose aim 
 it is to sho« that there is no other lown quite so good as a |)lace of 
 business or I'esidence. And one is not hei'e long before he is ready to 
 agree with them. Every citizen is a booster and all pull together in 
 working for I he city's slonnu, "A Biggei', Husici-, liellcr lialeii;h." 
 
WHO'S WHO IN RALEIGH 
 
 MAYOR JAS. I. JOHNSON 
 
 Jamk.s 1. JoHNsox brouglit to the Dfhci' of mayor uf the city of Raleigh 
 the same eharapteristics that liad distinguished him in commercial life, 
 lioiiesty and U])rightness. Xever forgelful of that ])oliey, he has coupled 
 with it understanding and apjireeiation of tlie manifold duties of Mayor 
 and City Commissioner and has ])r('sidod over the destinies of Raleigh for 
 nine years in a manner that has hrouglit lionor to th(> city :in<l untold 
 credit to his administration. 
 
 James Tredell Johnson was born in lialeigh, November t, lSo-1. His 
 father was Charles Earle Jolmson and his mother, Miss Frances Lenox 
 Iredell. After attending tlie jiublic scliools and Lovejoy Academy, Mr. 
 Johnson became identified with the drug business. In 1885 he engaged 
 in business on his own account in the Woodward building, at which 
 location he remained until 1903, when lie retired in order to give his 
 entire time to Iiis official duties. During his career as a druggist, Mr. 
 Johnson prepared the formula for Anticephalalgijie, a remedy for head- 
 ache and neuralgia, which he manufactured and distributed on a large 
 scale. 
 
 The Mayor first enlered politics in 1!I0;] when he was elected aldernuin. 
 In 1905 he was clioser. ilayor and was re-elected in 1907 and 1909. He 
 held no public office from 1911 to ]9i;i, but in the latter year, which saw 
 the birth of the commission form of government in Raleigh, he was again 
 chosen as the city's chief executive and was re-elected in 1915. As 
 Mayor he is Commissioner of Public Accounts and Finance and is also 
 ex-officio Chairnum of the Raleigh Township School Board. 
 
 In February 1885, Mr. Johnson w^as married to Miss Rebecca Mur- 
 ray. They liave three sons and one daughter. Mr. Jolmson is a mem- 
 ber of the Ejiiscopal Church, the Country Club, the Renevolent Protec- 
 tive Order of Elks and the J. O. F. A. M. He is greatly interested in 
 all outdoor sjjorts, especially baseball, football and liunting. To the 
 latter he was, until a few years ago, passionately devoted and had a 
 statewide reputation as a A^imrod. 
 
 The seven years of Mayor Johnson's administration from 1905 until 
 1909 and from 1913 to the present time have been the most prosperous 
 in the history of Raleigh. The re|)aviiig of the principal streets, which 
 has been accomplished during his tenure of office; the sale of the old 
 Market House property, the erection of a new and thoroughly up-to-date 
 market; the construction of two new modern fire-proof office buildings: 
 the erection of a new Court-house; and the remodeling of the Post 
 Office and Federal building are only a few ste])s in the (inward march of 
 this city's )irogi-ess during liis administration.

 J. R. CHAMBERLAIN 
 
 TiiK YEAK IS61, which saw the break in rehitioiisihi)) hctweeii tlic 
 States of the Xorth and those of the South, plunging tiie two sections 
 into a struggle that is now history, also saw the birth of a child, who a 
 quarter of a century later was to invade the southland on an entirely 
 diifereut mission. In the years between the advent of Joseph Redington 
 Chaniberliiin into this "vale of tears" at Kanona, New York, Septem- 
 ber 22, 1861, and his apijoarance in Raleigh, the conflict of '61 to '65 
 had all but been forgotten and his arrival here was as welcome as the 
 resistance to the northern troojjs was bitter. 
 
 Mr. Clianiberlain came to Raleigh immediately after his graduation 
 from Cornell University in 188.8, as agriculturist of the North Caro- 
 lina Experiment Station. In 1889, with the opening of the Agricultural 
 and Mechanical College, he was made head of the department of agricul- 
 ture, live stock and dairying. This position he held for several years. 
 
 Professor Chamberlain was married in 1891 to Miss Hope Sum- 
 merell of Salisbury. Tliey have one daughter. Miss Mary Mitchell 
 Chamberlain, and throe sons, Jesse Mark, John Summerell and Joseph 
 Redington Chamberlain, Jr. 
 
 Prof. Chamberlain is a member of the Seaton Gales Lodge of Odd 
 Fellows, the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, the Capital Club, the 
 Country Club, the Rotary Club and the Milburnie Fishing Club. He is 
 an ardent fisherman and enjoys nothing more than sitting in a boat or on 
 the bank of some quiet stream waiting for a tug at the line. He o^vns 
 a tract of seven hundred acres near Method, and on this farm spends 
 much time comnmning with nature. He has done considerable scientific 
 work in biolog;^- and has always been a thorough scholar and thinker. 
 
 He is president of the Caraleigh Phosphate and Fertilizer Works 
 and is also ])resident of the Farmers Cotton Oil Company of Wilson, and 
 the Kanona Com])any, and the Farmers' Guano Company of Norfolk, 
 Va. He is president and a large stockholder in the Caraleigh Cotton 
 Mills Company, vice-president of the Capudine Chemical Com]iany, and 
 a director of the Raleigh Banking and Trust Company. 
 
 The Caraleigh Phosphate and Fertilizer Works, one of the few con- 
 cerns in North Carolina manufacturing sulphuric acid, is one of the 
 most comi)lete plants of its kind in the country. The output is between 
 twenty-five and thirty tliousand tons each year. 
 
 Mr. Cliamlierlain, always interested in this city's welfare, has been 
 for twenty-five years a most enthusiastic supporter of every progressive 
 movement inaugurated here. He represents some of Raleigh's luost 
 important industries and has long been recognized as a conspicuous figure 
 in the business life of North Carolina.

 MILLARD MIAL 
 
 Born of a family of lovers of nature and tillers of the soil for many 
 generations, it is only natural that Millard Mial should be first, last and 
 always a farmer. Although a county official for a number of years, with 
 duties preventing him from spending as much time on his farms as he 
 would like, Mr. Mial has not lost one whit of interest in things agricul- 
 tural nor neglected to get close to nature in field and wood whenever 
 possible. 
 
 As to Mr. Mial's age "the deponent saith not," but it is known that he 
 was born in Mark's Creek township, descendant of two of the oldest and 
 most prominent families in North Carolina. His father, Alonzo T. Mial, 
 was an extensive planter and a man well knowTi for the deep interest he 
 took in the political, educational and religious life of his community. 
 His mother was before marriage Miss Victoria LeMay, daughter of 
 Thomas J. LeMay, who more than seventy-five years ago, was editor and 
 publisher of the BuJeigli Star and North Carolina Gazette, one of the 
 leading Whig papers of the State. 
 
 Mr. Mial as a youth attended the country schools and Trinitj- College, 
 from which he graduated in 1872. Like his forefathers he was inter- 
 ested in agricultural pursuits and after leaving college took up farming. 
 This vocation he followed continuously until 1891, when he was ap- 
 pointed by the Board of County Commissiojiers to fill an unexpired term 
 as Register of Deeds of Wake county. So well did he fill the office that 
 he was urged by friends to become a candidate in the following election. 
 He was elected and served until 1894. In 1898 he was appointed county 
 commissioner, and was elected a member of the board two years later. 
 He served as a member of the Legislature from Wake county in 1907 
 and was elected Clerk of the Superior Court of Wake county in 1910. He 
 was re-elected in the election of 1914 and is now seizing his second term 
 in tiiat office. 
 
 Although in the public limelight for many years Mr. Mial has never 
 been a seeker after office nor used his positions of trust as a means 'of 
 personal aggrandizement. Throughout his career both public and private, 
 he has always maintained an honorable standard and in the discharge of 
 his official duties has been faithful, exact and systematic. 
 
 Mr. Mial is by faith a Methodist and is affiliated with the Methodist 
 Episcopal Church, South, of Mark's Creek Township. He is a member 
 of the Seaton Gales Lodge of Odd Fellows and of the Raleigh Country 
 Club. He has extensive fanning interests in Wake and Johnston counties 
 and is numbered among the most advanced and prosperous agriculturists 
 of North Carolina.

 FRED A. OLDS 
 
 Frederick A. Olds was born under the American ting, how many years 
 ago does not matter, and has lived the greater part of his life in Raleigh. 
 To use his own expression his age is of no importance as Metliusaleh 
 will probably continue to hold all records for longevity. After gradu- 
 ating from the "University of Hard Knocks" he became a newspaper 
 man, and since 1877 has been a regular contributor to the daily and 
 weekly papers of the State. He was at one time connected with the old 
 Raleigh News, then with the Xewn and Observer from its first issue, 
 and for several years has contributed regularly to the Raleigh Times. 
 He has ser^'ed a number of newspapers as their capital city correspon- 
 dent, notably the Charlnllr Observer, witli which he was connected for 
 over 20 years. 
 
 Colonel Olds has been greatly interested in military affairs and went 
 on the general staff when the State Guard was organized- in 1877. He 
 was for six years secretary of the Chamber of Connnerce and put forth 
 conscientious efforts in behalf of this city and its interests. He is a typi- 
 cal Xorth Carolinian in that he has always put love of his home city and 
 State above all else. He loves the old North State from the foaming sea 
 to the lofty peaks of the Blue Ridge and is always happy to discourse 
 on his favorite subject — North Carolina. 
 
 Colonel Olds is director of the North Carolina Hall of History, the 
 only State institution of its kind in the country, and of which he was 
 tiie founder. 
 
 The Hall of History came into being through the donation by Colonel 
 Olds to the State of a large number of historical relics, which he had 
 been collecting since 1885. With tlic addition of a wing to the agri- 
 cultural building space was given there by the State to tlie exhibition of 
 tlie objects donated. In 1914 the State Administration Building 
 was completed and two halls on the second floor were ])rovided as 
 the "Hall of History." In the meantime contributions liad been re- 
 ceived from not only all parts of North Carolina, but the entire 
 coimtry, until more than 1,000 historical objects were ready for installa- 
 tion. Since that time many others have been added tmtil now there is a 
 most wonderful collection of relics dating from the first settlement of 
 this State in 1584, until the present day; every one bearing directly upon 
 some phase of North Carolina history. 
 
 Colonel Olds is a great lover of children and is often seen surrounded 
 by a bevy of youngsters in his walks about the city or in the surrounding 
 country. He is known by perhaps more people than any other man in 
 Raleigh, and they all love him, for he is truly "One of Nature's Noble- 
 men."

 MAJOR W. A. GRAHAM 
 
 From thk rock-l)iiiUKi cdast of Ilatteras to the towering peaks of 
 Mount Milcliell tliere is no fifrurc tliat has stood out more prominently 
 in North C'aroliiia history than Major W. A. Graham. For more than 
 half a century he has served his State as warrior, citizen and statesman 
 with a Spartan-like courage, untiring zeal and consecrated devotion. 
 The son of a beloved governor of this commonwealth, he was bred in an 
 atmosphere of patriotism the effects of which have grown stronger every 
 day of his well spent life and have served to keep him young in mind 
 and spirit while Father Time has wrinkled his features and whitened 
 his locLs. 
 
 William Alexander Graham was born at Ilillsboro, N. C, Dee. 26, 
 1839. His early education was received at Ilillsboro and Kaleigh. He 
 also attended the Union Academy at Washington, D. C, and the Univer- 
 sity of North Carolina. Me graduated from Princeton University in 
 the class of 1860. 
 
 Wlien ill 1861 tiie kSoutli was roused by the call to arms, Major Graham 
 became a cavalryman. He was made Captain of Company "K" of the 
 19th North Carolina Regiment, and displayed such remarkable courage 
 that he was commended by General Lee as being one of the most efficient 
 officers in the Confederate Army. He was wotmded in the battle of 
 Gettysburg in 1863, and was later appointed Major and assigned to duty 
 as Assistant Adjutant General of the North Carolina troops. He was 
 the last North Carolinian in office after the surrender of the South. 
 
 Major Graham was married in 1864 to Miss Julia R. Lane, of Vir- 
 ginia. To them were born nine daughters and two sons. His wife 
 having died in 1909, Major Graham was married in 1914 to Mi.ss Sallie 
 H. Clark, sister of Chief Justice Walter Clark. 
 
 Major (Jrahani represented his district in the State Senate in 1874 and 
 in 1878, receiving every vote cast. This stands as a record in the politi- 
 cal history of North Carolina. In 1S89 he was elected a member of the 
 State Roai'd of Agriculture, and in 1904 he served as a member of tlie 
 Legislature. 
 
 In September, 1908, he was appointed to fill an unexpired term as State 
 Commissioner of Agriculture, and was elected to a four-year term a few 
 months later. He was re-elected to that office in 1912 and is again a 
 candidate for re-election in 1916. 
 
 In his religious affiliations Major Graliaiu is a devout Baptist and is 
 connected with the First Baptist Church of this city. He has been a 
 conspicuous figure in Baptist State organizations for many years. 
 
 Major (Jraliam has contributed a number of very interesting manu- 
 scripts to North Carolina literature, among them being a history of the 
 State Adjutant General's office from 1863 to 1865, a history of the 2nd 
 Regiment North Carolina Cavalry during the Civil War and a preten- 
 tious work cniiilcd "General Joseph Graham and his Revolutionarv 
 Papers."

 No MAK in public lite has taken a deeper or more unselfish interest in 
 everything that tends to jironiote the welfare of North Carolina than 
 Colonel J. Bryan Grimes. Born June 3, 1868, the son of Major General 
 Bryan Grimes of the army of the Confederacy, he has proven as con- 
 spicuous a figure in times of peace as did his illustrious father in tlic 
 stirring days of '61. 
 
 Colonel Grimes received his early education from private tutors, from

 To BE A truly jiroijrfssive citizen and evince an interest in everything 
 tendinji toward the civic, eoininercial and spiritual advancement of 
 Raleigh has ever been the aim of Carey J. Hunter, whose record dur- 
 ing the twenty-eight years in wliicli he has made this city his home is 
 witness of how well he has lived up to ideal citizenship. As a leader in 
 industrial, educational and religious work, lie has long been recognized 
 as an im])ortant factor in the onward inarch of jirogress of the Old North 
 State and its capital city. 
 
 Carey Johnson Hunter was horn near Apex, June 1, 1857. His 
 father was Joseph C., and his mother Pianctta (Beckwith) Hunter.

 fecting a great organization there, and looking after his conipany's busi- 
 ness in Virginia as well as North Carolina for several years, he relin- 
 quished all territory except North Carolina. He wrote the first policy 
 issued by the company in this State and to him is due much of the 
 credit for the remarkable showing made by tlie Fiiioii Central in North 
 Carolina and Virginia. 
 
 In addition to otlier interests, Mv. Hunter is a director of the Com- 
 mercial National Bank, the Mechanics Savings Bank, the Caraleigh 
 Cotton Mills, the Cajindine Chemical Company and the Melrose Knitting

WHO'S WHO IN RALEIGH 
 
 JOSEPHUS DANIELS 
 
 On the ISth clay of May, 1862, in the town of Washington, N. C, 
 there was given to the State, the South and the Nation a life that in 
 after years was to do much to rebuild that which the year of his birth 
 saw devastated. And the boy was named Josephus. 
 
 At an early age young Daniels displayed a tendency toward exi)Ound- 
 ing his own oj)inions. At the age of eighteen he was publishing in the 
 town of Wilson his first paper, Tlic f'dniiiropiti, and since that time 
 he has continued to expound and expand. 
 
 On May 2, 1888, he was married to Miss Addie Bagley, daughter of 
 Alajor W. H. Bagley. Mr. and Mrs. Daniel.s are the parents of four 
 sons. 
 
 The mile-posts, as they stand out in Mr. Daniels' past, are as follows: 
 State printer for North Carolina 1887-1893; Chief Clerk Department 
 of the Interior 1893-1895; trustee of the University of North Carolina; 
 member of the Democratic National Conuuittee for twenty years; 
 nominated, confirmed and commissioned Secretary of the Navy March 
 5, 1913; received the degree of LL.D. from Davidson College, the Uni- 
 versity of North Carolina and Ohio Wesleyan University, and the degree 
 of Lit. D. from Washington aud Lee University. 
 
 Back of Secretary Daniels' remarkable success is the man himself. 
 He has an especial genius for journalism, his life work, and is fearless 
 in his espousal of great issues. His life is a moral force behind his paper, 
 aiW he is always to be found on the moral side of any issue, pressing it 
 to the front. His position is the same in his battles for Democracy, and 
 he takes advanced positions in having his party serve the people. 
 
 Secretary Daniels has never sought office. In fact, he holds that no 
 editor can do his best who is a seeker after ofHce, and so, while he has 
 given freely to advance other men's fortunes, he has sought none for 
 himself. His devotion to his party is recognized not only by the State, 
 but the entire nation as well. He has been a member of the Democratic 
 National Committee longer than any member from any other State 
 except one. In the cami)aign of 1908 he was chairman of the Literary 
 Bureau and in the campaign of 1912 was chairman of the Press Com- 
 mittee, which provided for the newspaper men at the Baltimore conven- 
 tion and was Chairman of the Publicity Committee in the campaign 
 which followed. After all, and in conclusion, the story of the life 
 work of Josephus Daniels, is but the story of a determined life. The 
 success achieved by a man of real character who has dared to do as he 
 believed. Standing by principle constantly, Josephus Daniels has won 
 the confidence, the esteem and the love of the people of North Carolina 
 and the United States.

 "Robert W. Wixstox, a graduate of the University of Xorth Caro- 
 lina; ail eloquent .speaker; a brilliant lawyer; an intrepid judge; a cul- 
 tured and patriotic citizen, with varied gifts and cosmopolitan interest; 
 in season out of season, giving himself without stint and with mar- 
 velous eflFect to constructive work for his State and his people. It is 
 my privilege to present this loyal and distinguished son of our common- 
 wealth for the degree of Doctor of Laws." These words, used by Wake 
 Forest College in conferring the degree of LL.D. upon Judge R. W. 
 Winston, sound the keynote of his life. 
 
 His hope is to see his native State take a high place among her sister 
 States. He has ever been a friend and advocate of the common people, 
 is interested in the prompt dispatch of business in the courts of his 
 State, the development of rural communities; in good roads; in better 
 schoolhouses, and consolidated schools; in farm-life schools; in sanita- 
 tion and in rural credits. 
 
 Judge Winston is the trusted counselor of many banks, insurance com- 
 panies and other corporations and has an extensive clientele in this and 
 other States. His advice is sought in the settlement of large estates and 
 in great financial transactions. He has clients in Granville and Orange 
 counties who have employed him since he was a boy. His practice ex- 
 tends from the trial courts to the Supreme Court, and from the U. S. 
 District Court of the Court of Appeals at Richmond and to the U. S. 
 Supreme Court. 
 
 Bom in Windsor, in September, 1860; educated at the Horner School 
 and at the University, locating in Oxford where he was State Senator in 
 1885, Judge of the Superior Courts at 29 ; resigning from the bench in 
 1895 and removing to Durham; removing to Raleigh 1909 and joining 
 Grovernor Charles B. Aycock, in the practice, and now associated with 
 Judge J. Crawford Biggs, and all the while much interested in political, 
 financial and legal affairs and deeply concerning himself, since becoming 
 a citizen of Raleigh, in her progress and development, his has been a 
 busy life indeed. 
 
 Judge Winston has two sons and two daughters. His oldest, James 
 H. Winston, is a member of the firm of Winston, Payne, Strawn k 
 Shaw of Chicago ; Miss Gertrude married Frank B. Webb of Durham, 
 and R. W., Jr., a promising young attorney, and Miss Amy reside with 
 their father. Some four years ago, when Mrs. Winston died, the family 
 circle lost its chief ornament, the model home-maker, mother and 
 Christian. 
 
 Judge Winston is a Xorth Carolinian to the core. He loves her 
 people from mountains to sea — their saving common sense, their indi- 
 viduality and their uniform conservatism, and daily exclaims, with 
 General Lee, "Thank God for Xorth Carolina.'"

 GRAHAM H. ANDREWS 
 
 Theke is no record tlwit April 21, 1S.S3, was observed as a holiday by 
 the officials of the Citizens Xatioiial Bank, but could they have looked 
 thirty years into the future, there is no doubt that tlie date would have 
 been fittingly recognized and emissaries dispatched with congratula- 
 tions to the home of Col. and Mrs. A. B. ^Viidrews. Since they were not 
 prophets, the day passed unnoticed, and it was not known until a quarter 
 of a century later that Graham Harris ^Vndrews, who was ushered into 
 the world on that date, was to become a guiding hand in the destinies of 
 one of the city's time honored financial institutions. 
 
 His father before him having been a great financier, as well as one of 
 the most prominent railroad officials of the South, it was but natural that 
 one of his sons should have a leaning toward financial affairs. So when 
 the time came to choose his life w-ork, this boy's thoughts turned toward 
 the banking business, in which he was advanced from one position to an- 
 other until the age of thirty found him not only occupying a position as 
 Cashier of one of Raleigh's .strongest banking institutions, but al.so a mov- 
 ing spirit in the financial life of the Old Xorth State. He takes a great 
 interest in the North Carolina Bankers Association, and when the group 
 system was adopted, he was elected as the first Chairman of Group 
 Number Four. At the present time he is a member of the Executive 
 (^ommittee of the Association. 
 
 Mr. Andrews received his early education at the Raleigh Male 
 Academy, later entering the University of North Carolina, from which 
 he graduated with a degree of A. B. in Jime, 1903. Just after his gradu- 
 ation lie became connected with the Citizens National Bank and he 
 devoted his mind to mastering the intricacies of the banking sj'Stem witli 
 the same diligence that marked his college life. 
 
 Mr. Andrews was married November 6, 1907, to Miss Eliza Humphrey 
 Simmons, daughter of United States Senator F. M. Simmons. They 
 have two daughters, Julia Johnston and Mary Simmons, and one son, 
 Graham Harris Andrews, Jr. He and his family are members of the 
 Church of the Good Shepherd of which his parents were among the 
 founders, and he is now Senior Warden of that parish, having been a 
 Vestryman for a number of years and active in the erection of their 
 beautiful new church. He is also a Trustee of St. Mary's School. 
 
 He is a member of the Capital Club, the Raleigh Country Club, the 
 Neuseoco Fishing Club, the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, and 
 the Knights of Pythias. In his college days he was initiated into the 
 mysteries of the Sigma Alplia Epsilon fraternity, to which he is still 
 loyal. 
 
 In addition to his connection with the Citizens National Bank as 
 Cashier, Mr. Andrews is Vice-President and a Director of the Raleigh 
 Savings Bank & Trust Company. He is also Secretary and Treasurer and 
 a Director of the Raleigh Cotton Oil Co., and a Director in the Raleigh 
 Real Estate k Trust Company, the Atlantic Fire Insurance Co., and of 
 the Raleigh Building and Ixian Association.

 He had no experience in coninu rcial life, and his first few years here were 
 lean ones. However, he had three attributes of which successful men 
 are made: he was God-fearing, conscientious and diligent in his busi- 
 ness. His name is C. R. Boone, and lie is now among this city's leading 
 merchants and well known as one of the most religiously charitable men 
 of his means in the country. Since establishing the men's clothing and 
 fnrnisliing business which bears his name, Mr. Boone has conscientiously 
 laid aside one-tenth of his profits to be donated to Christian work. From 
 this he maintains a missionary in China, and is coutemplating sending 
 another versed in medicine to the same district. Tn addition to his 
 doiiiitions to religious work in foreigii fields, Mr. Boone is also charitable 
 in other respects, giving generously to many worthy objects. He is 
 l)roud of the fact thai by his commercial prosperity he is in a position 
 to render financial aid to the cause of Christianity, and is as careful in 
 kee])ing an account of the ten per cent donated to religious work as he 
 is in seeing that the books of tJie business are balanced.

 26, 1879; the son of Kobert and Easter Ann ( HoUcman) Boone. He 
 attended the C^layton public schools and worked on his father's farm

 spent with the W. E. Jones Dry Goods ('ouipany, he entered the men's 
 clothing and furnishing business, where he remained until he went into

 ferent sense. 
 
 Born and reared on a fai'ni foni- miles sonth of this city, he was a 
 typical country boy having all the energy and imagination with which 
 truly rural youth is gifted. While he dreamed of some day becoming 
 a landowner it was not a vision of fields of waving grain that he saw 
 Init more valuable pro])ei'ty that lies in and aroiuid an already poiuilated 
 city. He has realized that dream, fur today lie is one of the most suc- 
 cessful and best known real estate o])erators in the city of Raleigh. 
 
 Virgil Otis Parker was born Nov. 23, 1871, the son of II. N. and Mrs. 
 Mary Waitt Parker. He spent his youth between the ploughshares and 
 gained his primary education in tlie country schools. He attended the 
 Wakefield Academy and afterwards Wake Forest College. Upon his 
 graduation he became a teacher in the public schools of Sniithfi(dd, later 
 removing to Clyde, in Haywood county, where he continued to follow 
 that vocation. In 1903 he decided that it was time to put his "back 
 to the soil" ])olicy into effect and to ilial end came to Raleigh and cnti'red 
 the real estate business. 
 
 In 1904 the firm of Parker and Hunter, Real Estate and Insurance, 
 was formed, and later the title (duuiged to Parker-Hunter Realty Com- 
 ])any, with Mr. Parker as Secretary and Manager. A short time after its 
 organization the firm undertook the subdividing and sale of the property 
 now known as Cameron Park. The project was a great success and not 
 oidy materially benefited the owners and sales agents of the property, but 
 opened np a new and beautiful resi<leiu-e district, which is a ci-edit to 
 the city of Raleigh. 
 
 Fishing and farm life are Mr. Parker's ideal recreations. He owns 
 the farm on which he was born and is liaiipy when wandering in tiie 
 fields and woods. 
 
 Mr. Parker is a believer in the Baptist faith and a mendjer of the 
 First Baptist Church. He has for many years been prominently identi- 
 fied with the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce, and is at present Director 
 of the Publicity Department Committee. From the moment he took 
 up his residence here he has been an ardent supporter of every move- 
 ment for the betterment of the city's interests and his progressive spirit

 B. S. JERMAN 
 
 TliK YEAR 1801, which saw the beginning of tlic end of the Old South, 
 also marked the birtli of many men who in after years were to build 
 better than their fathers knew. It was as though fate, relentless in its 
 destruction, made amends by giving to the scene of devastation lives that 
 were destined to become important factors in the rehabilitation of the 
 land of their birth. Of these there was born at Ridgeway, Warren 
 county, X. ('., on Xovember 4th of tiiat eventful year, Beverly Sydnor 
 Jerman, son of Doctor Thomas Palmer Jerman and Lucy Beverly 
 Sydnor. 
 
 Yoiuig Jerman attended tlie Kidgeway public schools and Williams 
 Academy. He came to Kaleigh in 1881 and became an employee of the 
 Citizens Xational Bank, with which he was connected for ten years. 
 
 In ISOl Mr. Jerman, with J. J. Thomas and H. W. Jackson, organized 
 the Commercial and Farmers Bank of Raleigh and became Cashier. In 
 inOS, following Capt. Thomas's death, Mr. Jerman was elected Presi- 
 dent of the institution which was that year converted into the Commer- 
 cial National Bank of Raleigh. It has gi-own steadily since the day of its 
 organization, the capital stock having been increased from $50,000 to 
 $300,000 with a surplus of $140,000. In the past six years the deposits 
 have doubled. To the guiding liand of its President is due much of this 
 success.

 State, was erected. 
 
 In addition to his banking interests Mr. Jerman is connected with

 GOVERNOR LOCKE CRAIG 
 
 LocKK Ckak;. (Jovc'Dior of A'orlli ('ai'dliii.i, u;is Ixirii in l!cilii' cuuuty, 
 August 16, 1860, the son of Andrew Murdnck and Relx'cca Gilliam 
 Craig. It is ])ossil)l(' to trace his ancestors back tlirough four genera- 
 tions, his great-grandfather having come to America in 174!), from Ire- 
 land, although he was a native of Scotland. 
 
 Governor Craig after attending the public schools of Bertie countj- 
 became a student of the Horner Academy at ITeuder,son, later entering 
 I he Univcr.<it_v of Xorth Carolina. From there he graduated in 1S80 
 aufl soon after took up the ])ractice of law. In ISS.'J he moved to Ashe- 
 \ille, where lie soon l)uilt \i|i an extensive jiractice. In 1892 he was a 
 Democratic elector from wliat was then the Xinth District. He made 
 a brilliant canvass of the State for Bryan in the Presidential race of 
 1896, from wliicb he gained a State-wide reputation as an orator. While 
 absent from his iiome city on a campaign tour in 1898 he was nominated 
 by the Democratic ])arty as their standard bearer in the Legislature for 
 the coming term. After a whirl-wind cam])aigii he was elected by a 
 majority of .seven hundred, reversing a liitherto IJepublican majority 
 of si.x hundred in liiat counly. Tiiis Legislature of 1890 was one of 
 the greatest that ever met in tiie State Capitol, the counties having 
 selected tiieir most eminent thinkers to jiass on the proi)Osed suffrage 
 amendment to the (\)ustitntion. (Jovernor Craig was recognized as one 
 of its ablest leaders. In 1900 he was again elected; this time by an 
 increased majority. He was a candidate for the United States Senate 
 in 190.'!, but was drfcated by Hon. Lee S. Overman of Kowan county, 
 after a most thrilling contest. Governor Craig was designated as pilot of 
 the Ship of State by his inauguration as Governor on July 1."). 1911'.. His 
 administration will be remem1:)ered for its thoroughness of detail, syra- 
 palhetic understanding of localities and openness to reason. The (Jov- 
 crnor's Democracy has ])ervaded every department of State othcial life. 
 
 As a public speaker Governor Craig is admittedly the equal of any 
 produced by the Stale during the present generation. He is magnetic, 
 intensely and oftentimes thrillingly elo(|uent. 
 
 lie was married to Miss .\nni(' Hurgin, of McDowell counly, Novem- 
 ber 18, 1891. They arc the parents of four sons, Carlyle, George 
 Winston, Arthur and Locke Craig, Jr. Governor Craig is a member of 
 tiie Baptist Chui'ch, the Ma.sonic Order, llie Knights of Pythias, the J. O. 
 IT. A. M.. the Woodmen of the World and the Benevolent Protective 
 Order of Elks. He is an ardent lover of nature and enjoys climbing 
 his native mountains. 
 
 Governor Craig's jwlitical success can well be attributed to his stand 
 for justice as evinced by his favorite slogan, "Plqnal rights to all 
 — special |irivileges to none."

 A. and ^I. Collcp', ^\■hpre he graduated with a degree in Mechanical 
 Engineering. He took high rank as a student, and as a member of the

 tial spirit by serving in the National Guard and the Third Regiment 
 Band. After graduation Mr. Park took a special course in mechanics 
 in the Kensington Technical Institute of London, England. In order 
 tliat no part of his education be neglected he acted as fireman on ship- 
 lioard, an experience wliicli jirovided the subject for many stories after 
 his return. 
 
 He next became an instructor in mathematics at the A. and M. College, 
 where he remained four years. Tlien desiring to enter the business world 
 he became part ownier and manager of the North Carolina Garage and 
 Machine Company. In 1911 he organized and became general manager 
 of The Raleigh Times. He had always felt a longing to engage in 
 newspaper work since his college days when he had been the business 
 manager of the college magazine Red <ind White. In the newspaper field 
 Mr. Park has found his life work as evidenced by the great success, 
 which has attended his efforts almost from the moment he entered 
 journalism.

 county. They have three children.

 ternity. He acted as chairman of llie committee wliich successfully 
 launched the commission form of government for Raleigh and led 
 the fight for a bond issue which resulted in the present beautifully 
 j>aved streets. 
 
 Mr. Parks was elected President of the Raleigh Chamber of Com- 
 merce in Se])tember, 1915, and so successful was his tenure of office 
 that he was imanimously re-elected at the time of the reorganization

 A. TELFAIR HORTON 
 
 "Ptt ai.l voir eggs ill one basket and watch the basket," is said to be 
 the advice given young men by Andrew ("aruegie. Some one must have 
 repeated this excellent doctrine to Telfair llortoii, t'oi' al an early age 
 he decided he would put all his eggs in one basket and locate that recep- 
 tacle at No. 10 East Martin street. In order to guard the treasure it 
 was necessary to be about the premises, so he secured employment with 
 the firm then known as Whiting Bros. This occurred when he was 
 12 years of age, and to ])rove that Carnegie was right Mr. Horton has 
 only to point to his name at the top of the Whiting-IIorion Conipany's 
 stationery, behind which is the word President. 
 
 Alexander Telfair Horton was born at Smithfield, Johnston county, 
 the son of Col. S. P. and Mrs. Rebecca Horton, April 2, 1S76. He 
 came with his parents to Kaleigh when he was three years old and a 
 few years later agreed that they had made a wise move in coming hei-e. 
 He has never entertained the slightest idea of living elsewhere, for he 
 had that basket to watch. Between his watchful waiting and boosting 
 for Raleigh at every opportunity he has been a busy man, but not too 
 busy, as is shown by the fact that he is a member of the Edenton Street 
 Methodist Church, a Past Master of the Raleigh Lodge of Masons, a 
 member of the Seaton Gales Lodge of Odd Fellows and a national repre- 
 sentative of the Junior 0. U. A. M. 
 
 Mr. Horton and Miss Lizzie Manin Murphrey were married July 18, 
 1899. They have two sons, Alexander Telfair, Ji'., and Harold Whit- 
 ing, and one daughter, Miss Elizabeth Horton. 
 
 He is interested in all athletic s]iorts, especially bowling, at wiiicli 
 he is adept. 
 
 Mr. Horton, after serving the firm of Whiting Bros, conscientiously 
 and well for 20 years, during which he rose from messenger boy to head 
 salesman, bought the interest of the late S. W. Whiting and became a 
 partner in the business. Upon the firm's reorganization he was elected 
 President. He is justly proud of the fact that he has spent twenty- 
 eight years in business under one roof with the prospect of continuing 
 many more years in the same location. He is an intensely enthusiastic 
 Raleighite, a firm believer in the future of this city and North Caro- 
 lina, and at all times keeps in mind the motto which has meant his suc- 
 cess, "Put all your eggs in one basket and watch the basket."

 Here by business ability and courteousness he established a large and 
 remunerative patronage which he retained until his retirement from busi- 
 ness three years ago. Mr. King opened a drug store in the Ma.sonic 
 Temple building, when that structure was completed, and conducted a 
 very successful business there until it was disjjoscd of by sale. A short

 location until lie retired to give all of liis attention to official duties. 
 
 Mr. King was elected one of three Police Commissioners of the city of

 sion form of government adopted by city of Raleigh in 191.^. He was 
 elected and. in a])|ireciation of his promotion of the general safety, was

 regarded by his |irofession as one of its leaders, Dr. Albert Anderson, 
 SnpcrinfendenI of llie State Hospital. 
 
 His removal to Raleigh in 1!)()7 as medical director of the Jefferson

 Superintendent of the State Hosjiital in 11>!:!. and tinder his manage- 
 ment the hospital has enjoyed the most remarkable success in its history. 
 
 Shortly after taking th(> management, Dr. Anderson introduced voca- 
 tional occupations for mental treatment, universally regarded as the 
 most successful remedy for mental disorders. 
 
 It was through Dr. Anderson's influence that Raleigh secured the 
 Mental Hygiene exhibit, held here three years ago under the auspices 
 of the National Committee on Mental Hygiene, and it was through him 
 that the State Society for Mental Hygiene was formed. 
 
 Dr. Andersoi\ was born at Eagle Rock, October 18, 1859, the son of 
 Jesse and Mary Anderson. He attended country schools, when not 
 engaged in farm work, and later entered the Raleigh Male Academy.

 Academy, at Middlcburg, North Cavolina. While there he took up the 
 study of medicine, in which he later graduated from the University 
 of Virginia. In 1889 he attended a course in post-graduate instruction 
 in the New York Polyclinic.

 In 1903 he was elected a meniher of the house of delegates of the 
 Atnerican Medical Association and in the following year was one of the 
 representatives of the State Medical Society in the National Association.

 founded by him and Dr. C. E. Moore in 1898, which has been most 
 successful in the treatment of acute medical and surgical cases. 
 
 Dr. Anderson was married Deceml>er 12, 1888, to Miss Pattie R.

 with more honor during the times when men's souls were tried than a 
 boy who at the age of 14 years journeyed from the Hillsboro Academy, 
 where he was a student, to become a member of a military company 
 being organized in Kalcigli. That company became a part of the army 
 of the Confederate States of America, and three years later the boy 
 had become Lieutenant-Colonel Clark, the youngest officer of that rank 
 in either the Confederate or Union forces.

 as a man of peace who, since the regeneration of the South, has found 
 his life work. He is now the most eminent jurist in Xorth Carolina, 
 having ser^-ed as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the State for 
 the past fourteen years.

 the degree of LL.D. in 1888. He took up the practice of law which 
 he pursued until 1885, when he was elected Judge of the Superior 
 Court of Wake county. In 1889 he was elected Judge of the Supreme 
 Court of North Carolina and Chief Justice in 1902, which office he 
 still holds. 
 
 Judge Clark was married to Miss Susan W. Graham, now deceased, 
 a daughter of former Senator and Secretary of the Navy W. A. Gra- 
 ham. He has two daughters, Mrs. J. E. Erwiu of Morgantou and 
 Miss Eugenia Clark of Raleigh ; and five sons, David Clark, Editor of the 
 Textile Manufacfurer; W. A. Gi'aham Clark of Boston; John W. 
 Clark of Durham; Walter Clark, Jr., and Thorne Clark of Raleigh. 
 
 Judge (Mark has for many years enjoyed a national reputation as an 
 author of legal documents and his articles are given welcome space by 
 United States Government publications. He is the author of the Anno- 
 tated Code of Civil Procedure, now in its third edition, and he also com- 
 piled and edited the North Carolina State Records in sixteen volumes. 
 He has written a history of the North Carolina regiments of the Civil 
 War in five volumes and translated Constant's "Memoirs of Napoleon" 
 from the French.

 CAPTAIN J. W. HARRELSON 
 
 "I didn't isAlsE my Liov to lie a soldier" was not a |io|uilar song- wlicii 
 John William Ilarrelson was born June 2Stli, 1^8"). Even though 
 those words had been sung in his youth they would have fallen on 
 deaf ears as far as he was concerned, for he took a different view of a 
 martial life. To him there was nothing quite so thrilling as the beat 
 of the drums to the aocompaniment of the tramp of boys in bine, 
 while he gazed upon the heroic figures in youthful ra])ture. 
 
 At the age of thirteen years young Harrelson entered the Piedmont 
 High School, of Lawndale, Cleveland county, North Carolina, he hav- 
 ing entered life's battle in tliat county. Tliere he received a prepara- 
 tory education before entering the North Carolina College of Agri- 
 cultural and Mechanic Arts at Raleigh, in 1905. Four years later 
 lie graduated with ihe degree of Raclielor of I]ngineeriHg and tiie 
 distinction of being first in a class of sixty-five students. 
 
 It was while in college that Captain Harrelson. received his first 
 martial training, serving in all capacities of college military life from 
 l)rivate to ca])tain in the A. tV M. College battalion. After his gradu- 
 ation he jjassed a competitive examination at Fort Monroe, Virginia, 
 for appointment as Second-Lieutenant in the Coast Artillery Corps of 
 the United States Army, but declined the a]j])ointment to become assis- 
 tant instructor in mathematics ;it iiis nhnti nutter. In 1915 he was 
 made assistant professor of mathematics of the A. i: M. College, which 
 position he still holds. He has, since 1910, been graduate manager of 
 college athletics, a subject in which he has always been dce])ly interested. 
 During the collegiate year of 1915-16 he served as President of the 
 General Alumni Association of the college. 
 
 From 1907 until 1910 Captain Harrelson served in Company G, of 
 the North Carolina National Guard at Shelby. Entering the company 
 as a private, he was several times jjromoted until during the annual en- 
 campment of 1910 he served as Acting I>ieutenant. In Octolx^r, 1915, he 
 was commissioned First Lieutenant and assigned to the First Company 
 of the Coast Artillery Corps stationed at Kaleigh. He was promoted 
 to the captaincy of the company August 1st, 1916. 
 
 Under the National Defense Act of June 3rd, 1916, creating the 
 Federalized Militia, Captain Harrelson was a|)pointed recruiting 
 officer for all branches of the Xatimial Army and Navy Service as 
 well as the National Guard. 
 
 While still a young man. Captain Harrelson, is exceedingly well 
 versed in military matters, a fact to which his rank bears witness. 
 
 Captain Harrelson, during the eleven years in which he has called 
 Raleigh his home, has made a host of friends who admire him for 
 many excellent traits of character. He is an honorary member of the 
 Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity, is listed among the membership of the 
 Raleigh Countrj' Club and is a prominent member of the Masonic Order, 
 being High Priest of the Raleigh Chapter of Royal Arch Masons.

 The EDfCATiOiNAi. iiitcrcsts of Xdi-lli Caniliiia lost one of its bright- 
 est young workers when B. T. Cowper forsook the school-room for tiie 
 insurance field. However, he maintains that he is still an educator, al- 
 though along a different line. Certain it is that there arc few insur- 
 ance men in the State who have done more than he in the past feu- 
 years for the enlightenment of the masses in regard to life insurance. 
 
 Bayard Tlmrman ('nwper was horn June 26, 1879, at Gatesville, 
 X. C. .\flei- atlending the (iatcsvillc schools he entered the Univer- 
 sity of Xorrli Carolina, from which lie graduated in 1001. His first 
 work was as an educator in the public schools of Gatesville. He later 
 taught at Williainston and was Superintendent of the public schools 
 there for two years, resigning to take up insurance work with the 
 Southern Life and Trust Com])any. In less than two years from his 
 advent into the insurance field, Mr. Cowper was made Assistant Super- 
 intendent of Agencies for that company, with headquai'ters at Greens- 
 boro. He resigned in 1914 to accept the general agency of the Mary- 
 land Life Insurance Com])any of Baltimore, and two years later moved 
 to Raleigh. 
 
 As general agent, he has brouglit the development of local agencies 
 up to a high standard. He is an cniliusiastic and indefatigable worker, 
 and this, together with a like sjiirit uhicli he has engendered in his 
 co-workers, has resulted in the wonderfid increase in business done in 
 this State by the Maryland Life since he took the general agency. 
 
 Mr. Cowper has contributed a number of well-written articles to 
 l)i)th educational and insiirance magazines, lie is the author of a 
 treatise on "Different Methods of Teaching," and has been especially 
 active in literary efforts touching on life insurance. A nnndier of 
 articles of the latter cliaracter hav(> a]ipeared over his name in Tin- I it- 
 suranre Field, a national magazine devoted to the cause of insurance, 
 one of the most prominent bearing the title, "The Evolution of the 
 Interview." He has also written much of the literature, descri]itive 
 of life in.suranee, published by the Maryland Life. 
 
 Ml-. Cow])er has been twice married. His first wife was Miss Jennie 
 Moore of Williamston, whom he married in 1904. By that marriage 
 he has two .sons, Bayard Thurman, Jr., and Roscoe Cowper. In 
 1915 he was married to Miss Delzelle R. Woodard, of Wilson. An 
 Episcopalian by faith, Mr. Cowper is connected with Christ Church. 
 He is a member of the Raleigh Country Club, where he secures 
 recreation from his business labors.

 KARL G. HUDSON 
 
 Kesidents or Union coiiiitv, who knew Karl G. Hudson as a boy, arc 
 fond of telling how lie began trading marbles at the age of six and 
 that as far as memory runs lie then showed ability that would have done 
 credit to one much older. While at work in his father's fields a few 
 years later it is said he displayed his connnereial spirit to the degree of 
 tarrying at the end of a cotton row while he endeavored to beguile 
 some other rustic into exchanging ])ossessions. The fact that neither 
 owned any trading material did not deter him from his purpose, for 
 lacking other valuables he would propose an exchange of shoe laces. 
 And it came to pass after many years that he rose up and went into 
 a far county where he realized youth's dream, for he is now- Manager 
 of the Hudson-Belk Department Store of this city. 
 
 Karl Green Hudson was born iu Monroe county, near Union City, 
 March 11, 1889. His parents decided that he should at least have 
 instruction in reading, writing and arithmetic in order that he might 
 not be too badly handicapped in his business dealiugs with a cruel 
 world, and to that end sent him to all the country schools thereabouts. 
 In the classroom he divided his time between poring over chapters 
 devoted to the world's commerce and trading jack-knives with his 
 school-mates. When his school daj's were over he went to work in a 
 blacksmith shop, but finding no opportunity to exercise his commer- 
 cial proclivities there he gave up the job and became a cotton buyer. 
 
 Hut cotton buying did not quite satisfy young Hudson, who wanted 
 continuous trading the year round, so he betook himself to Waxhaw. 
 N. C, where at the age of nineteen he entered the employ of the R. .1. 
 Belk Department Stores Co. Here he reveled in the knowledge gained 
 through experience and association with the business world and in a 
 few years was made store manager. He later managed the Gastonia 
 store of the same company, which has a chain of twelve department stores 
 in this State. 
 
 Mr. Hudson came to Raleigh in 1915, o]iening a branch store of the 
 Belk Company. Besides the Raleigh store the company now operates 
 in Charlotte, Monroe, Gastonia, Salisbury, Statesville, Waxhaw, San- 
 ford, Greensboro, Concord, Wilmington, Rockingham and Yorkville. 
 Sovith Carolina. 
 
 The Belk Company's policy is to sell at one price and for cash, and 
 this, with Mr. Hudson's untiring energy and progressiveness, has al- 
 ready assured them and him of a successful business career in Raleigh. 
 
 Mr. Hudson is a member of the Edenton Street Methodist Church. 
 Pie is thoroughly progressive and a firm believer in a brilliant future for 
 the business interests of Raleigh. He is nniuairied and has no hobby 
 unless it be his work, foi' he is, first, last and ahvavs, a trader.

 Storr. After attending the public schools, he secured further educa- 
 tion at the Eaton and Burnett Business College of Baltimore, and 
 later entered the mercantile business with his father, receiving parental 
 instruction in buying and selling. He decided to become a traveling 
 man and followed that vocation for twelve years, being a representa- 
 tive of the Thomas A. Edison Company, manufacturers of Edison Dic- 
 tating Maciunes, with headquarters at Charlotte, before coming to this 
 city. Although he had spent but little time here Mr. Storr, when looking 
 for a live city to open a live business, was not long in deciding u])on 
 Kaleigh, and he has had no occasion to regret that choice. 
 
 Mr. Storr is President and General Manager of the H. S. Storr Com-

 R. H. WARNER 
 
 While a youth Kobert Haiuer Warner was alwaj's fascinated by the 
 art of stone cutting. For hours he would stand spellbound while he 
 watched the chips of granite fly while a busy workman applied chisel 
 and mallet, and it was then that he decided upon his life-work. 
 
 R. H. Warner was born at Laurinburg, Xorth Carolina, September 
 I3th, 1S83. After attending the public schools of his home town he 
 enrolled in the Cary High School, and later the A. & M. College. After 
 leaving the latter institution he entered the marble and granite business 
 in Raleigh, sending twelve years in that trade. In February, 1914, Mr. 
 Warner, with W. K. and Paul Campbell, formed the Campbell-Warner 
 Company, dealers in marble and granite. While they make a specialty 
 of monuments, having erected more monuments and tombstones than all 
 other firms in Raleigh combined during the past two and a half years, 
 they also do an extensive business in building granite. They furnished 
 the granite and built the base for the State Building and for the Murphey 
 School Building now in course of construction. At their yards on West 
 street the Campbell- Warner Company has the latest machinery for the 
 cutting and carvijig of stone and granite, pneumatic tools having super- 
 seded the chisel and mallet of Mr. Warner's boyhood days. Their busi- 
 ness is not confined to Raleigh and vicinity, but embraces the entire 
 State. 
 
 Mr. Warner was married September 18th, 1906, to Miss Rosa Phil- 
 lips, of this city. They have two daughters : Misses Emily Rose and 
 Eula Elizabeth. He is a member of the Baptist Tabernacle Church, 
 and of the Woodmen of the World. He is a football enthusiast, but 
 aside from that sport finds his sole recreation in selling monumental and 
 granite works. 
 
 W. R. and Paul Campbell, the other members of the firm, inherited 
 their calling, being descendants of two generations of stone cutters. 
 Their grandfather, Donald Campbell came to this country from Scotland 
 about 1830 and was employed in the construction of the State Capitol 
 at Raleigh. He later engaged in the marble and granite business here 
 for many years. During the civil war he was employed by the Confed- 
 erate Government in the construction of locks in Deep River at Lock- 
 ville, and after the close of the war was superintendent of the building 
 of the stone wall around the State Penitentiary, a work which required 
 several years for its completion. His son, Hugh Campbell, followed 
 the trade of his father and was well known in this vicinity as an expert 
 stone and granite worker. His sons, W. R. and Paul Campbell, took to 
 their father's and grandfather's business when they were large enough 
 to lift a mallet. They have been engaged in monumental and stone con- 
 struction work in some of the largest cities of the country, and are 
 thoroughly experienced in their line.

 is Howard White. 
 
 Born in Matthews county, Virginia, A])ril (Jth, IssO, he received 
 his early education in the [)ublic sclipols there and in the Portsmouth, 
 Va., High School. In October, 1906, he was married to Miss Annie

 Line Railway as accountant and later with the Xorfolk and Sotithern 
 as tie and timber agent. In this capacity he had charge of the pur- 
 chasing of a greater part of the ties, bridge timber and lumber lused in 
 the construction of the road. In 1909 he decided to go into the lumber 
 business on his own account and chose thi.s city as his future home, a 
 choice wiiich was fortunate, not only for him, but for Raleigh as well. 
 During the seven years that he has had offices here, Mr. White's busi-

 l)leasure in making extended automobile trips through territory to 
 which he is a stranger. As a baseball fan he has no peer in the State. 
 He is intensely interested in that sport and never misses an opportunity 
 to root for the Raleigh team. 'I'o him as much as any other one nuin

 Jesse Lee OC^uinn was born in Harnett counly, February 16, 1858,

 Kaleigh, where he secured employment in a floral establishment. Since 
 he had no knowledge of botany from books Mr. O't^uinn decided to 
 take lessons from nature. 
 
 He also kept an eye on the commercial possibilities of floriculture 
 and six years later decided to go into business for himself. This 
 was in 1897. 
 
 From an inauspicious beginning, at which he had only two green- 
 houses, Mr. O'Quinn has built up an establishment in which there are 
 thirty-five thousand feet of glass, covering flowers of almost every variety 
 grown in the United States. From the humble daisy to the beautiful 
 orchid, that rarest of flowers, every member of the floral kingdom is 
 either grown or handled at his nurseries. There are twelve acres of 
 growing plants, roses, carnations, potted plants, bedding stock, ornamen- 
 tal shrubs, shade trees and liedge i)lants. A specialty is made of carna- 
 tions, a favorite flower with Mr. O'CJuinu and one which he has featured 
 for many years. 
 
 Associated with Mr. O'Quinn in the ownership and management of 
 J. L. O'Quinn Company, is E. L. (.'oble his son-in-law. Mr. Coble 
 is a graduate of the agricultural department of the A. and M. College 
 and is an enthusiastic floriculturist. Li addition to their greenhouses the 
 company has a down town store. As members of the Florists Telegraph 
 Association, they are able to sujiply flowers in any town or city in the 
 United States or Canada. 
 
 Mr. O'Quinn was married in IMMi to Mrs. Emma Myatt. Their 
 (laughter Miss Willie M. O't^iiiiin was married in li>14, to Mr. E. L. 
 Coble of Guilford county. 
 
 Mr. O'Quinn was an organizer and is a Director in the Merchants 
 National Bank. He is a member of tiie Boyal Arcanum, the Jr. O. U. 
 .\. M., the Jiotary Club, the Chamber of Commerce and the Merchants 
 Association. He has always been intensely interested in civic affairs and, 
 by his co-operation and eflForts, aided every progressive movement in 
 the past twenty years of Kaleigh's history.

 by the Supreme Court in 1882. He immediately formed a partnership 
 with his brother, A. W. Haywood, then a member of the Raleigh Bar, un- 
 der the firm name of Haywood and Haywood. This partnership was dis- 
 solved in 1895 when A. W. Haywood retired from law practice to enter 
 the cotton mill business at Haw River. Since that time Ernest Haywood 
 has continued the practice alone. His legal business is restricted to civil 
 matters, he making a specialty of commercial, corporation and real 
 estate law and the settlement of estates. He has a large and lucrative

 city, as well as being one of the most able and successful in his particu- 
 lar line of practice.

 and at one time seldom missed a day from his favorite recreation. He 
 also took great pleasure in hunting when the fields surrounding Raleigh 
 were better hunting grounds than they are today. During recent years 
 however he iuis iiad no time for pleasure other than that which he 
 finds in his work.

 soii Foy Giles, a son of M. 1). and Julia (iibbs Giles, and he is tiie 
 Wake County Superintendent of Public Instruetion. After an early 
 education in tiie schools of McDowell county, he attended Trinity Col- 
 lege at Duiliaui and the State Fniversity at Clia])el Hill, North Caro- 
 lina. So ijreat was his love of education that bis career as a teacher 
 was planned liefoi-e leaving the rniversity, from wbicb he returned Jo 
 his home county. He first taught in the McDowell County Public Schools 
 one year, before being Principal of the Xebo High School, where 
 he ])resided four years. His next ijosition was that of Superintendent 
 of Public Instruction of McDowell county, at which he spent eight 
 years, tlic last three of which he also served as Superintendent of the 
 Marion City Scliools. A distinctive feature of Mr. (Jiles's educational 
 work in McDowell county was his organization of a school .system con- 
 sidered inie of I lie best of any county in the State. 
 
 As a member of the Slate Senate of 1915 from McDowell county Prof. 
 Giles served on a ninnber of ini])ortant committees, among them tiie 
 Senate Committee on Education, of which he was Chairman. 
 
 The record of the Wake County Schools under Superintendent Giles's 
 supervision has been a brilliant reflection of his character as an educator. 
 Material ])rogress has been made in all branches of the county school sys- 
 tem, a testimonial to his earnest am] intelligent efforts. In the past school 
 year there were two new tax districts added and two new dormitories se- 
 cured for the Farm Life Schools of Cary and Wakelon. Through his 
 efforts a teacher of Home Economics has been ajipointed for domestic 
 science work in rural communities. This teacher visits country homes, in- 
 structing girls in various domestic work and forming Flomemaking and 
 Canning Clubs. 
 
 Superintendent Giles has formidated an extensive i)lan for school 
 supervision in Wake county and has divided the county into three dis- 
 tricts, in ea(di of \\liich there is a supervisor, whose duties consist of 
 visiting the different schools and supervising the teaching methods 
 used. Tiie county schools, in thirty-four of wlii(di high school courses 
 are taiiglit, had a remarkably good year in point of attendance in 1915 
 with bright prosi)ects for a continued increase in enrollment. The 
 annual County Commencement held in Italeigb in .Vpril, I!) Hi, was tiie 
 greatest in attendance and enthusiasm in the county's history.

 "As 1 iiK -i-wk; is uk.m', llic tree is inclined." 'riicrc is im belter illiis- 
 ti'Mtion of this old proverb than Thomas Walter Bickett, the present^ 
 Attorney-General and Demoeratic eandidate for Governor of the State 
 of North Carolina. He first saw the light of day in Monroe, X. f'., 
 February the 28th, 1869. When thirteen years of age his father died, 
 leaving him the oldest of four children. He grew up with this early 
 responsibility in a home full of fine forees which make for manhood. 
 After gradtiatiug from the Jlonroe High School he entered Wake Forest 
 College in 1886, and in spite of the fact that he was compelled to work 
 his way through that institution, he gained a place as leader in college 
 life. He was Chief Debater in the graduating class of 1890 and did 
 the honor accorded him with gracious dignity. From 1890 to 189.'? 
 he taught in the graded schools of Winston-Salem. During these two 
 years he devoted his leisure time to the study of law in the office of his 
 uncle, D. A. Covington. Later he took a finishing course in the Univer- 
 sity Law School, and was admitted to the bar in 1893. He located at 
 Danbury, Stokes comity, where he practiced for a year and a half. In 
 1895 he moved to Louisburg, and has lived there continuously since. 
 
 Although actively interested in ])olitics, he never allowed his name to 
 be used until he consented to become a candidate for the Legislature 
 from Franklin county in 1907. He was elected by a majority of seven- 
 teen hundred and fifty and served with distinction. He was particularly 
 responsible for the big advance made in the care of the State's unfortu- 
 nates. 
 
 Ill 1908 Mr. Bickett was urged by friends to become a candidate for 
 Attorney-General, but he declined that honor until in the Charlotte 
 Convention the pressure became overwhelming, and he finally consented 
 to his nomination. He was elected and entered office in 1909. At all 
 tin)es he has sacrificed his personal self for duty and his office has been 
 maintained with traditional dignity. He has argnied before the Supreme 
 Court, in behalf of the State, more than three hundred cases, and in 
 the opinions of the court are found frequent quotations and appreciative 
 allusions to his argtunent. He has been adviser to every department of 
 the State Government. While his o])iiiions are highly regarded because 
 of their legal authority they have been, ]ierhaps, of greater value because 
 of the clear and common sense way in which he approaches all ques- 
 tions. As Attorney-General he has been called upon to appear in most 
 important ca.ses. His description of the dissolution of the American 
 Tobacco Company was so apt that it was used throughout the country. 
 
 Xorth Carolina is fortunate in having as prospective Governor for 
 the ensuing tci-m so representative and forceful a character. A lawyer,

 In the place of his birth \V. (_'. J)oughiss liad no choice, but he did 
 select the State in which to make his future home, North Carolina being 
 accorded that honor. He lived for many years in Montgomery and 
 Moore counties before coming to the conclusion that while he had chosen 
 wisely as to this State, he had overlooked Kalcigh as its ideal city. 
 This error of commission he rectified in 1896, when he moved here and 
 became a member of the Kaleigii Bar, he having been engaged in the 
 practice of law twenty years ]ircvions at Ti'oy ;iii(l Ciu'thage, North

 CHIEF C. F. KOONCE 
 
 From a i'hi.ntkk'.s dkvii, t(j Chief of Police, .sums iiii the life story of 
 C. F. KooiU!e who has found time, when not engaged in those vocations, 
 to set type, edit a newspaper, solieit newspaper advertising throughout 
 thirty-two States, engage in the furniture business and serve as Magis- 
 trate. In his spare tijne lie has developed into a fairly expert fisherman 
 and hunter, become as.sociated with more than a dozen fraternal organi- 
 zations and made all with whom he has conic in contact call him friend. 
 
 Charles Franklin Koonce was born at Eichland, Onslow county, 
 September 4th, 1875. His parents moved to Raleigh when he was a 
 mere child and his first memories are of this city. While still a boy 
 he decided to become a printer, a trade at wliich he worked in Raleigh 
 for a number of years before going to Kinston, where he founded and 
 was one of the editors of the Morninij Xfiirii. He retired from the news 
 end of the newsjiaiK-r field to become connected with the mechanical 
 department of the Mutual Publishing Company. He was later asso- 
 ciated with the Progressive Farmer as Advertising Solicitor, in which 
 capacity he traveled over the greater part of the United States. In 
 1907 Mr. Koonce entered the furniture business with his brother in 
 Raleigh. He followed that vocation until 1912, when he was elected a 
 Magistrate of Raleigh Township. In N'ovenilier, 1915, he was elected 
 Chief of Police, of the city of Raleigh, by the Board of Commissioners 
 and is now serving a two year term in that office. 
 
 From pieing type to stalking the wary criminal is a far cry, but 
 Chief Koonce entered upon his duties as the head of the Raleigh Police 
 Department with the same energy, earnestness of purpose and supreme 
 confidence in himself that marked his entry into his first newspaper 
 office. The result is shown in one of the most efficient police adminis- 
 trations that Raleigh has had for many years. To him is due great 
 credit for the present very comprehensive traffic ordinance and its en- 
 forcement. 
 
 The Raleigh Police Department now has tiie most thorouglily dis- 
 ciplined force in the history of the organization. It is composed of 
 thirty-two officers, with two captains. The work of patrolling the city 
 is divided into three reliefs of eight hours each. 
 
 Chief Koonce is a member of the National Association of Chiefs of 
 Police, an organization whose aim it is to further the betterment of police 
 administration throughout the country. He is a member of the Masonic 
 Order and is a Shriner, and is a member of Manteo Lodge and of the 
 Encampment of Odd Fellows, the Knights of Pythias, the Junior Order 
 of United American Mechanics, the Modern Woodmen of America, the 
 Royal Arcanum, the Raleigh Typographical Union, the Chamber of 
 Commerce and the Raleigh Funiitui-e Dealers' Association. He is con- 
 nected with the Central Methodist Church. 
 
 While living in Kinston Chief Koonce was married to Miss Lossie 
 Linwood Moore of that place, in January, lOO:]. They have one son, 
 Charles Franklin Koonce, Jr.

 C. TRENHOLM McCLENAGHAN 
 
 What the akciiitectikai, profession and the State of South Carolina 
 lost the insurance business and Xorth Carolina gained when C. T. 
 McClenaghan decided to make Raleigh his home. And this city and 
 State have cause to feel proud over the acquisition of a citizen who has 
 created so ])rofound an inipi-ession u])i)n the business life of his adopted 
 home. 
 
 Although a South Carolinian hy birth, Mr. McClenaghan is a descen- 
 dant of North Carolina's early .settlers, which probably accounts for his 
 leaving the State of his nativity to nuike his home here. This was in 
 1904, the year of his graduation from the Porter Military Academy at 
 Charleston, S. C. He had taken a course in architecture and mechani- 
 cal draughting, but after visiting Raleigh was so impressed with this 
 city's advantages that he reconsidered his determination to become an 
 architect and instead came here and went into tiie insurance business 
 with John C. Drewry. His first efforts were devoted to life insurance, 
 which he handled exclusively for five years. He next took up casualty 
 and fire insurance, in which he found that his knowledge of architec- 
 ture stood him in good stead. So diligently did he apply himself that 
 from a novice in the insurance field he worked his way to the Chief 
 ( 'lerksliip of Mr. Drewry's office. 
 
 Mr. McClenaghan is now General Manager of the Tar Heel Company, 
 which sells every form of insurance issued, including life, fire, burglary, 
 casualty, liability, health, bonding, automobile and scores of others. 
 
 C. Trenholm McClenaghan was bom in Florence, S. C, November 
 5, 1886 ; the son of J. II. and Portia Bacot McClenaghan. He is a 
 nephew of the late Col. William J. Saunders, of Raleigh, with whom 
 he was visiting at tlie time he decided to make this city liis home. He 
 was married here April 14, 1914, to Miss Amelia Whitaker. They 
 have one daughter, Miss -Marian Trenholm McClenaghan. He is an 
 Episcopalian by faith and a member of Christ Church. 
 
 Hunting and fishing are Mr. McClenaghan's favorite diversions. He 
 is especially fond of goose and duck hunting along tlio shores of Eastern 
 Carolina, a sport which he maintains ecpials that to be found in any 
 l)art of the world. 
 
 Mr. McClenaghan is a Thirty-Second Degree Mason, an Order which 
 has conferred a number of honors upon him. He is a Past Master of 
 the William G. Hill Lodge, No. 218, and is District Deputy Grand 
 Master of the Fifteenth Masonic District which embraces Wake county. 
 He is an enthusiastic worker in the Chamber of Commerce and gets 
 his recreation at the Country Club, of which he is a member. He is 
 active in the Y. M. C. A., and an ex-member of tlie Board of Directors 
 of that organization.

 A. H. COBLE 
 
 A'ati're was especiai.i.v generous witli A. H. Coble, eiidowiMg him 
 with both artistic and imisieal talent, and lie in appreciation has de- 
 veloped them both until now he is not only an artistic photographer 
 but a thorough musician. While he does not have the time to devote 
 to music that he would like, Mr. Coble is recognized as one of extraor- 
 dinary ability as a ])erfornier on both string and wind instruments. 
 Although a stranger to Raleigh until a few months ago, he has by his 
 pleasing personality, his artistic sense, and his unusual inclinations, 
 become well and pojnihirly known in tlic brief time he has made this 
 city his home. 
 
 Albert Henry Coble was born at Vanceboro, X. C, September 28, 
 1880, the son of Wesley Milton and Georgia (Culpepper) Coble. He 
 attended the public schools of Vanceboro and the Trenton, X. C., lligli 
 Scjiool before taking uji the study of pliotography under his father at 
 Kinston. Tlie ])liotographic instinct was natural with him, his father 
 liaving been in that business for thirty years. He does not know from 
 whom he inlierited his musical talent, but at an age when most boys 
 are ))laying marbles young Coble was endeavoring to become a musician. 
 That he has succeeded is evident from the fact that lie is not only an 
 accomplished performer on the violin and cornet, but is also acquainted 
 with a great many other musical instruments. He was Chief Musician 
 of the Second Regiment, North Carolina Band, stationed at Kinston be- 
 fore coming to Raleigh. This position he held at the encaiii]Mneiit of 
 the Xorth Carolina troops in 1914 at Augusta, Ga., at which time the 
 Augusta ])apers jiaid the band the compliment of being the best regi- 
 mental l«iiid ever iieard in that city. 
 
 Mr. Coble was married in October, 1904, to Miss Zula Rogers, of 
 Swansboro, X. C. They have two sons, Albert J. and Vernon Ferrall 
 and two daughters, Mis.ses Catherine and Georgia. 
 
 Mr. Coble's avocations are music and baseball, but while he is very 
 fond of cheering for the home team nothing (piite approaches liis love 
 toi- music. He is a member of tlie Woodmen of the World ami in his 
 religious affiliations is a Methodist. 
 
 Mr. Coble came to Raleigh as successor to the late M. W. Tyree, 
 who was conceded to be one of the most artistic photographers of the 
 South. To u])liold that reputation was the task confronting Mr. Coble 
 on his arrival, but with no misgivings as to the outcome he took charge 
 of the business, retaining the name "Tyree Studio." Since that time 
 lie has not only proven his ability, but has made a host of admirers who 
 see in his work most beautiful e.NanipIes of modern ]ihotography. With 
 liim it is not only a business but an art, with every subject pre.seiiting 
 an oii])ortunity for an artistic triumph. He is an idealist, a lover of 
 tlie beautiful and a true artist.

 J. E. O'DONNELL 
 
 J. E. O'DoNXELi. may well have !h'<'1i the subject of the poet's song 
 when he sang "My father and mother were Irish and I am Irish, too," 
 for, notwithstanding I he fact that he was born on American soil, the 
 names and birthplaces of both his parents bear witness to his being a 
 son of Erwin. His father, ilichael O'Donnell, hailed from County 
 Clare, while his mother, Margaret McGinness, was born in County Gal- 
 way, made famous in Irish songs and stories. They arrived at about the 
 same time in the land of the free and were married in New York State, 
 later moving westward and settling near Ada, Michigan. It was here 
 that John Edward O'Donnell was born, February 28, 1S66. His early 
 years were spent in tilling the soil at such times as he was not attending 
 the public school in Ada. He then attended the Grand Rapids High 
 School and, believing his business education incomplete, he became a 
 student in a business college at the same place. 
 
 From 18.S6 until 1S99 Mr. O'Donnell engaged in the retail shoe busi- 
 ness in Grand Kapids. In the latter year he joined the sales force of 
 the National Cash Kegister Company of Dayton, Ohio, and was given 
 the State of North Carolina as his territory. At that time the company, 
 which has since achieved a world-wide reputation, was but little known 
 in this State, and to Mr. O'Donnell was assigned the task of introducing 
 their product in North Carolina. How well he has made good can 
 easily be appreciated by the fact that since his occupation of the terri- 
 tory he has in one year sold over one hundred thousand dollars worth 
 of cash registers. This concern manufactures ninety per cent of the 
 cash registers used throughout the world and has steadily grown from 
 one small building into a plant covering many acres and furnishing 
 employment to thousands of people. The local office, of which Mr. 
 O'Donnell is at the head, has grown with the industry, and now has a 
 force of eight salesmen covering sixty counties. 
 
 The National Cash Register Company was not alone in its good foi-- 
 tune when J. E. O'Donnell joined its ranks, for by so doing he became a 
 citizen of Raleigh and mie of whom this city and State may be justly 
 proud. 
 
 Mr. O'Donnell is, in its strictest sense, an apostle of the simple life. 
 He gets the utmost enjoyment out of his familj' associations and spends 
 much of his leisure time in their midst. He enjoys outdoor sports, 
 especially horse-racing and baseball, and is also an ardent devotee of 
 Nimrod. He loves nature and owns a farm near Grand Kapids, which lie 
 often visits. 
 
 In July, 1900, Mr. OT)oniiell was married to Miss Queenie Winn, 
 of Grand Rapids. They have two sons, John Burke and Hubert Hay- 
 wood, and three daughters. Misses Margaret, Kathleen and Dorothy 
 O'Donnell.

 He believes that it is life that really nialtei-s and refuses to allow liis 
 business associations to cliange his view[)oint or make him dilTereni 
 from his fellows. 
 
 The business is one that lias been handed d<iwn from father to son 
 through three generations. It was established in l.SISO by his grand- 
 father, 11. J. Brown, and has been known since as the H. J. Brown 
 Company, Funeral Directors. It passed from him to John W. Brown. 
 who conducted it for forty years before his death in 1914. Again the 
 concern pa.ssed from father to son and Fab I*. Brown took u]) its 
 management. 
 
 Before that time he had been engaged in the real estate business and 
 for seven years was Secretai'y of the Raleigh Real Estate and Trust 
 Company. 
 
 Fabius Porter Brown was born in this city. .Viigust 2:i, 187;!, the son 
 of John W. and Anna Bell Porter Brown. He attended the Raleigh 
 public schools, and the Morson and Denson Academy, where he received 
 his mental i)rei)aration for Trinity College at Durham. He graduated 
 from that institution with a degree of A.B. and considerable prestige as 
 a football player, having been a half-back on the eleven the year that 
 Trinity was conceded the football championship of the South. While 
 he is very modest in that regard, it is said by his friends that Fab was in 
 a great measure resjionsible for the fine showing made by his team that 
 season. 
 
 Mr. Brown has been twice married. His first wife, who was Miss 
 Lena Wynne of Raleigh, died in 191,3. He afterwards married Miss 
 Flo Broome of Wa.xhaw, N. C. He, like his forefathers, is a Methodist 
 and is a member of the Edenton Street Church. 
 
 Mr. Brown takes an active part in the work of the Raleigh ('hamber 
 of Commerce, the Merchants ^Association and the Rotary Club. He is a 
 member of the Cajiitol Club, the Coinitry Club, the J. 6. U. A. M., and 
 is also an Odd Fellow. 
 
 Fishing, which probably has more followers than any other sport in 
 this section, claims Mr. Brown for one of its own. and it is doubtful if 
 there is a more enthusiastic angler in Xorth Carolina. It is with pure 
 delight that he shoulders his rod and hies away to some placid ])0ol, 
 and be it said to his credit that he seldom returns empty-handed. 
 
 As a member of the Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club he has 
 proved by his untiring zeal in every progressive step made by the city 
 in many years, that there is no more enthusiastic -citizen or one who has 
 the interest of Raleigh more at heart than Fab P. Brown.

 Fko.m Bi vixu cottox to selling life insurance may seem a far cry. but 
 it was ouly a logical step in the career of E. C McGinnis. General Agent 
 of the Xew England Mutual Life Insurance Company for the State of 
 Xorth Carolina. In 1912 Mr. McGinnis, who had until that time been 
 engaged in cotton brokerage in Charlotte and Raleigh, became interested 
 in the insurance business and cast about for a company representing his 
 ideals. In his search he found that the Xew England Mutual Life had 
 been represented here in 1905 and 1906, but had withdrawn from this 
 State. The more he considered the matter the more firmly he became 
 convinced that it was the coni])any with which he wished to become 
 associated. A trip to Boston, the company's home, followed, and after 
 a thirty-five days persuasion the Xew England company was again in 
 Xorth Carolina with Mr. McGinnis as (Jeneral Agent. Xeither it nor 
 Mr. McGinnis has had reason to regret the second invasion of the 
 insurance field in this State, their business during the past four years 
 having exceeded the fondest expectations. By the exercise of untiring 
 energy, progressiveness and thoughtfulness of detail, Mr. McGinnis has 
 built for his company and himself a clientage that speaks volumes for 
 the company's princi]des and his business ability, and predicts for him 
 a most successful career in his chosen field. 
 
 In seeking connection in the insurance business Mr. McGinnis was 
 careful to select a company that represents what he believes to be the 
 highest form of life insurance: mutuality. This feattire is emphasized by 
 the Xew England Mutual Life, every policy liolder being recognized as 
 a member of the company. 
 
 The Xew England Mutual Life is tiie nldest mutual life insurance 
 company in this comitry, having been chartered in 1.S3."). During its 
 long career, wonderful |>rogre.«s has been made along all lines of insur- 
 ance practice, as is evident from a comparison of the policies of present 
 issue and those issued twenty or more years ago. 
 
 Eugene C. McGinnis was born in Mecklenburg county, August 26, 
 1872. Before engaging in the insurance business he had Ix-en a cotton 
 broker of Charlotte and Kaleigh, and has been well known here for 
 fifteen years. When not talking insurance he occasionally finds time 
 for hunting, of which he is very fond. He also enjoys baseball and fre- 
 quently plays golf at tlie Country Club, of which he is a memlx>r. He 
 belongs to the Capitol Club and is a member of the Masonic Order, and 
 is a Shriner. 
 
 Since choosing this city as his home he has evinced great interest 
 in the civic welfare. He is thorougiily progressive and a valuable 
 acquisition to the business life of Raleigh as well as to the Xew Eng- 
 land Mutual Life" Insurance Company.

 Legislature at 25, Clyde A. Douglass has, in the six years in wliieh he 
 has been in the pnblic- eye, achieved a State-wide prominence that pre- 
 dicts for him a brilliant future in the legal and political life of North 
 Carolina. Mr. Douglass, who lias not yet attained his 27th birthday, is 
 known as one of the brightest and most thorough students of law among 
 the younger members of the legal fraternity of Raleigh, with the ])r()s- 
 pect of a life of great usefulness to the city, the State, and himself. 
 
 Clyde Augustus Douglass was born at Carthage, North Carolina, De- 
 cember 23, 1889, tiie son of William C. and Josie (Tysor) Douglass. 
 When he was six years of age he moved with his parents to this city 
 where he attended the public schools and the Raleigh Male Academy. 
 Inheriting a love for the law from his father, he entered the law dejjart- 
 ment of the University of North Carolina, from which he graduated in 
 1010. He was admitted to tlie bar in Pebruary, 1911, and at once be- 
 came associated witli hi.s falher under the firm name of Douglass & 
 Douglass. The junior -membor of the firm was licensed to appear before 
 the United States Supreme Cotirt in 1914, as early as he could possibly 
 secure that honor. 
 
 Mr. Douglass is a member of the State Legislature, having been elected 
 for the term of 1915 and 1916. In the 1915 session of the General 
 Assembly he was a cous])icuons member of the Hou.se of Representatives, 
 serving as Chairman of the Committee on ('orporations, besides being a 
 member of a number of othci- important committees. He attracted con- 
 siderable favorable attention by his o])position to the bill allowing women 
 to serve as notaries public. The bill wa.s passed by one vote, the count 
 .standing 52 votes for and 51 against the mea!sure. In the first instance 
 of a woman being appointed a notary public, a test case was made in 
 which the State Supreme Court ruled the law unconstitutional, thereby 
 upholding his contention. 
 
 Mr. Douglass is a member of the North Carolina Bar ^Association, the 
 Independent Order of Odd Fellows, the Royal Arcanum and of the 
 Raleigh Chamber of Commerce. He is affiliated with the First Baptist 
 Church. As diversions, he is fond of baseball, hunting and fishing. The 
 last-named sport he likes particularly well and spends several weeks each 
 year at Beaufort, angling for mackerel, trout, blue fish, and sheepshead. 
 He has a motor boat at Beaufort and spends the greater part of his 
 vacations on the water.

 DR. HAROLD GLASCOCK 
 
 On June 27, 1!)()4, a young juiin sU'pped from a train onto Ralcigli 
 soil for the first time. He was from Missouri and was seeking a loca- 
 tion in North Carolina with a "show me" attitude, which is said to be 
 an attribute of the people of that State. So well was he shown that Dr. 
 Harold Glascock decided that the evidence was all in favor of Raleigh 
 and immediately opened an office here for tlie practice of osteopathy. 
 
 One of the pioneers in osteoi)athic practice in Xortii Carolina, Dr. 
 Glascock was the first prominent member of that i)iofession in Raleigh. 
 He was at first handica|)]>('d by traditional prejudice, but by his sincerity 
 of purpose, thorough skill, and charming personality stirmoiuited all 
 obstacles until now liis name is known tln'oughout tlie State as a leader 
 in his profession. 
 
 Dr. Glascock was born neai' Hannibal, Mis.souri. May 14, ISSO. Hi 
 attended the public and high scliool of Hannibal before entering the 
 American Scliool of Osteopathy at Kirksvillc, Missouri. In 1910 he 
 entered the Chicago College of Medicine, from which he gradiuited in 
 1913, thus giving him the degree of M.D as well as D.O. During 
 the past three years he has specialized in surgery, a science in which 
 he has a State-wide reputation. 
 
 Dr. Glascock was one of the founders and charter members of the 
 North Carolina Osteopathic Society, an organization which he has 
 served as President. He is also a member of the American Osteopathic 
 Association. It was in a great measure due to his enthusiasm that the 
 bill recognizing the practice of osteopathy in North Carolina was 
 passed by the Legislature in 1907. Prior to that time there was no 
 legal recognition of the profession, although osteopathy had been 
 practiced in this State for a number of years. Dr. Glascock has the 
 honor of having been a member of the first State Board of Examination 
 and Registration in Osteopathy.

 file most ettieient boolv and catalogue |)rinting plants in the Soutii. 
 Early training in life has enabled him to de\'ote attention to the more 
 artistic side of the ])i'inliiig business, as well as the proi)er methods of 
 efKcieney and ottice nianagcinent, tiiat insure siu'cess in all manufac- 
 turing enter])rises. 
 
 Although dobn Willis Weaver can trace his ancestry back to Scliatf- 
 hausen, Switzerland, and can point to the oi'iginal jjapers signed by 
 William Pcnn granting a tract of the "garden s])ot" in Lancaster county, 
 Pa., to his ancestor Hans Weber (being translated, John Weaver), 
 "the emigrant," eight generations back, he chose Gloucester county, \'a., 
 as a better plaeeto be born, March 31, 1870. 
 
 He was educated at Summerville Academy and at Squires English 
 and Classical School in Ricliuiond, where he also studied art, under 
 Miss Beruice Knott. In order that the mechanical part of his edu- 
 cation be not neglected he took a course in mechanical engineering 
 with Scranton College, of Scranton, Pa. His first work was with the 
 Richmond Cliriaiicni Ailrocide and he was later connected with the 
 mechanical departments of the Richmond Times, the Baltimore Ameri- 
 can and Whittet A: Shepjicrson, of Richmond, Va. 
 
 Mr. Weaver came to Raleigh in 1905, buying a half interest in a small 
 plant, which was incor])orated two years later as the Commercial Print- 
 ing Company. Under his skillful guidance the company has risen in 
 size and importance to a place among the leading printing establish- 
 ments of the South, and has turned out 'some excellent specimens of the 
 printer's art, "Who's Who in Raleigh" being an example. Possessing 
 decided literary talent and inclinations, Mr. Weaver has been a fre- 
 quent contributor to magazines jiublishcd in the interest of better print- 
 ing, and has devised numerous efficiency schemes, charts and labor saving 
 methods of determining costs in manufacturing printing. With him the 
 pi-inting art is not solely a commercial proposition, the success of which 
 can be measured in dollars and cents, but the means of realizing a 
 highei' ambition. 
 
 As a member of the Chand)er of Commerce, in the Business Council 
 of which he represents the ])rinting industry, and the Rotary Club, Mr. 
 Weaver has taken a dee]) intei-est in all uuitters [jcrtaining to the gi'owth

 "Apparkl oi't' rKoci.Ai.Ms THK MAX." siiid Williuui Shakespeare hun- 
 dreds of years ago, and he must have known whereof he spoke, for his as- 
 sertion has been repeated thousands of times. In fact, that is putting it 
 too mildly, for in Kaleigh alone the expression has been used more than 
 that by A. C. liinton. Being engaged in the nierchaut tailoring busi- 
 ness he also knows what he is talking about and can cite proof witiiout 
 end to u]>hold his eontentiou. Granting the remark is true, it follows 
 that Mr. Hinton is "some" iiroelaimer, since he has been furnishing 
 fastidious youths and their more dignified sires with outer garment's for 
 many years, lie is ]H'culiarly adapted to his business in that he is a 
 lover of the refined and an excellent judge of styles. With him the 
 fitting of men's garments is not only a business, but a pleasure and an 
 artistic achievement, the accoinplishinent of which is accompanied by 
 a feeling of sartorial triumph. An evidence of the appreciation of his 
 efforts to projjerly and fashionably clothe Raleigh's citizens is the fact 
 that he is North Carolimi's foremost tailor, turning out more clothes 
 each season than any other in the State. 
 
 .\ddison Caswell Hinton, was liorn A|)ril i;]tli, isy.j, in Chatham 
 county, tlie son of John Langdoii and Jose])hine (Johnson) Hinton. He 
 was left an ori)han early in life, his mother having died when he was 
 but a few weeks old, and his father following her within a few years. 
 Young Hinton spent most of his early boyhood at Eagle Kock, Wake 
 county, where he attended the public and private schools. At seventeen 
 years of age he selected Raleigh as the scene of his life-long operations, 
 and in casting about for a vocation recalled Shakespeare's words of 
 wisdom regarding num's apparel. He decided that any subject worthy 
 of notice by the bard of Avon would also interest him, and therefore 
 entered a men's clothing establishment where for twenty years he de- 
 voted himself to that trade. 
 
 In 1902 he determined to go into the tailoring business for himself, 
 and sincei that time has, by unfailing courtesy, fair dealings, and exact- 
 ness as to detail, built up a clientage surpassed by few like establish- 
 ments in the South. 
 
 Mr. Hinton was married to Miss Bessie Seawell, of this city, in 1890. 
 They have two daughters; Mrs. John D. Coo])er, Jr., of Henderson, 
 North Carolina, and Mrs. Thad S. Page, of Washington, D. C, and 
 three sons; Richard, Jack and Andrew Hinton. 
 
 Although his business is one that requires close attention and necessi- 
 tates his spending much time indoors, Mr. Hinton is greatly interested 
 in all forms of outdoor sports, especially baseball and football. He 
 is also a devotee of wrestling and is a frequent attendant at contests of 
 that character. However he ])Uts tailoring above all else, and is never 
 so happy as when quoting Shakesj)eare on the necessity of being well 
 dressed.

 FIRE CHIEF CHAS. D. FARMER 
 
 A DKscKXDANT OF firc-figlitcrs Oil botli tile iiaternal and maternal side 
 of his family, there is little wonder that Charles I). Farmer deeided to 
 become a fireman almost as soon as he was able to distinguish the sound 
 of a fire alarm. He realized his ambition in 1904 when he became a 
 volunteer in I he IJaleigli Hook and Ladder Company. One year later 
 he joined the Capital Hose ( 'nni|iany, of which organization he remained 
 a member until becoming an official of the Fire Dejiarfment. In 1907 
 he was Captain of tlie Capiliil Hose Company's racing team, which won 
 the first prize at the Firemen'.s Tournament at Wilmington. In 1912 
 he was elected to serve as Assistant Chief, and later in the same year, 
 when the paid Fire Department was organized, he was elected Assistant 
 Chief. In August, 1914, he was made Chief of the department. 
 
 Chief Farmer was born in Raleigh, February 13, 1882, the son of 
 John Thomas and Eachae] Ann (Keuster) Farmer. His father was for 
 many years a member of the Rescue Steamer Company, while his grand- 
 father, Charles Keuster, saw service with the Raleigh Hook and Ladder 
 Company 50 years ago. With this fire fighting heritage and an experi- 
 ence of 12 years in every position of the Raleigh Fire Department, the 
 present Chief is every inch a fireman. He is attentive to duty, alert to 
 the possibilities of his department and strict in the enforcement of 
 discipline among its members. 
 
 Chief Farmer is at the head of the best equipped fire deiiartment 
 in the State, and one that compares favorably with that of any city 
 in the country according to population. The de]iMrtiiiciit numbers 2S 
 men and has four motor-driven trucks. 
 
 During his regime there have been only two coiifiagrations of conse- 
 quence in this city. In each the flames were aided by a strong wind 
 and it was only by valiant work on the part of the fire department 
 that the flames were cheeked before many other buildings were destroyed. 
 
 The Raleigh Fire Department works not only in the interest of fire 
 protection but also fire prevention, there being a rigid inspection of the 
 fire district of the city every 30 days. A member of the department is 
 on night duty in every hotel in order that the patrons may have the 
 very best protection. 
 
 Chief Farmer was married in August, 1905, to Miss Ada Virginia 
 Wrenn of Goldsboro. They have one daughter. Miss Louise Elizabeth 
 Farmer. 
 
 Chief Farmer is a member of the J. 0. U. A. M., and the B. P. O. 
 Elks. In addition to his love of fire fighting he is very much interested 
 in baseball and in fact all outdoor sports. However, nothing enthuses 
 him as does the heritage that has made him above all else a fireman.

 schools of Raleigh before deciding to take up pharmacy as a profession, 
 his first experience in that business being at Louisburg. He also served 
 in the drug business in Kaleigh and Greensboro before being licensed

 of Philadelphia, as a traveling representative. With this firm, wliidi 
 has a national reputation, he covered the State of North Carolina and 
 the western part of Pennsylvania. 
 
 In 1910 Mr. Leavister retired from the road and opened Leavisicr's 
 Drug Store on Xorlh Person street, where he remained in business 
 four years. In .hdy. 1014, lie purcha.sed the Cajiitol Drug Store, on the 
 corner of Salisbury and Ilillsboro streets, from the late Pohert Simjjson.

 versed in his profession both he and liis store have the confidence of 
 the people of Raleigh. 
 
 As a sequel to his year's stay at Pinehurst, Mr. Leavister was mar- 
 ried in April, 1900, to Miss Caroline Damond, of New Hampshire, whom 
 lie met during his stay at Nortli Carolina's famous winter resort. They

 several years he nevertheless still takes great interest in the pastime. 
 
 Mr. Leavister is very fond of making trips to northern points an<l 
 several times ea(di year visits some of the larger cities in quest of new 
 ideas in the drug business. He takes especial interest in the annual 
 meetings of the National Druggists Association in Madison Scpnirc 
 Garden, New York City. Thoroughly progressive and up-to-date in 
 his ideas he finds great pleasure in association with men of national 
 prominence in the drug trade and retunis from those gatherings with 
 renewed confidence in the future of the jiliannaceutical business and 
 its kindred lines. 
 
 Since his boyhood days Mr. Leavister has been a strong booster for 
 Raleigh, with great faith in this city's commercial, industrial and civic 
 advantages. He is a member of tlie Raleigh Chamber of Commerce and 
 is ever among those whose watchword is "A Bigger, Busier, Better 
 Raleigh."

 Notable a.mo.\« thk sons of the "Old Xorth State" who in the past 
 quarter of a century have, through their ability and energy, placed 
 Xorth Carolina in the forefront of material progress is William Holt 
 Williamson, a native of Alamance county, but for the past twenty-four 
 years a conspicuous figure in the industrial, religious and social life 
 of the Capital City. Born at Locust Grove, Februarj' 4, 1867, the son 
 of James X. and Mary E. (Holt) Williamson, he early learned the 
 lesson of self-reliance, a quality which lias been a marked characteristic 
 of his life. 
 
 The son of one of the most ])rogressive cotton manufacturers of his 
 day, he early in life cliose the business of his father as his own life-work. 
 After attending preparatory schools at Graham and High Point he 
 entered Davidson College, at Davidson, Xorth Carolina, before he 
 attained his sixteenth birthday. In 1884 lie entered the offices of the 
 Ossipee Cotton Mills, in Alamance county, where his diligence was re- 
 warded four years later when he was given an interest in the business. 
 
 In 1892 Mr. Williamson built the Pilot Cotton Mills, of Raleigh, which 
 started operations in March, 1893, under the name of Jas. X. and W. H. 
 Williamson. In 1907 the business was incorjiorated under the name 
 of the Pilot Cotton Mills Company, with Mr. Williamson as President 
 and Treasurer. The principal product of the mill is the well known 
 Pilot brands of chainbrays for work shirts and coar.se dresses. Other 
 fabrics are made for export to the Philippines, South America and the 
 West Indies. The mill has made an excellent record for working time, 
 having an average of about 300 working days every year since it was 
 started. Mr. Williamson is also interested in the Harriet Cotton Mills, 
 of Henderson, of which he is a Director, and of the Jas. X. Williamson 
 & Sous Company, operating the Ossi])ee and tlie Hojicdalc Cotton ilills

 all matters pertaining to the industrial, religious and educational life 
 of Raleigh. He has since his collvgc days been a member of the Alpha 
 Tau Omega Fraternitj-. 
 
 The Raleigh Country Cluh when first opened had as its President Mr. 
 Williamson, who was in charge of the construction of the club grounds 
 and who more than any other one man is resjionsible for tlieir attrac- 
 tiveness. He is a member of the J. O. U. A. M., being affiliated with 
 the lodge of his employees at Pilot Mills, ample evidence of his democra- 
 tic spirit. 
 
 Mr. Williamson has a beautiful winter home at De Land, Florida, 
 where he spends several montlis each year, enjoying golf, motoring and 
 quail shooting. He was married December 7, 1897 to Miss Sadie

 great measure responsible for the paving with asphalt of the principal 
 streets and for the installation of modern street cleaning machinery.

 partnership. In 1.S!I4 he came to Raleigh and, with his brothers, T. K. 
 and G. W. Cooper, purchased the Raleigh Marble Works. For twenty 
 years they have conducted with great success one of the most complete 
 and extensive monumental works in the South. Several years ago the

 lu UK TKi siKt: OF ii luillioii dollar estate al 1 weiity-eight year.-; of 
 age is ail honor accorded to but few young men. But more important 
 than the honor conveyed is the sterling character of Oary K. Durfey, 
 who in an eight years business association with Mrs. Florence P. Tucker, 
 rose from collector to a trusted assistant, and wdiose honesty, ability and 
 energy was so marked as to cause her to name him as one of two execu- 
 tors and trustees of her estate at her death. A few months after her 
 death the other trustee died leaving Mr. Durfey in complete charge. In 
 the seven years which have since i)asscd he has ably justified the con- 
 fidence reposed in him, lia\ing handled the estate with such Imsiness 
 foresight as to greatly enhance its value each year. 
 
 Cary Kennedy Durfey was born at Wilmington, Xorth Carolina. 
 December 28th, 1882. lie s])ent most of his early boyhood al Wilson, 
 where he attended the public school. He moved to Raleigh when he 
 was sixteen years of age and accepted a position as clerk, where he 
 worked until January, 1902, when he accepted a position with Mrs. 
 Tucker as collector. Absolutely trustworthy, capable and courteous, he 
 steadily grew in her confidence until several years before her death 
 he virtually managed the estate, which includes a variety of business 
 interests from farm land to an office building. 
 
 In addition to his trusteeshi]) he is President of tlie Capital Insurance 
 and Realty Company, President of the Highland Farm Company, Secre- 
 tary and Treasurer of the Central Building Company, and is a Director 
 in the Raleigh Banking and Trust Company, the Raleigh Building and 
 Loan .Association and tlie Atlantic Fire Insurance Company. 
 
 Always a young man of deep religious conviction.s, Mr. Durfey is a 
 Deacon in the First Presbyterian Church and is very much interested 
 in Sunday School work. He is an enthusiastic Young Men's Christian 
 Association worker and is Treasurer of the Raleigh Association. He is 
 a member of the Masonic Order and is prominent in the activities of 
 the Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club. While unostenta- 
 tious in his dealings he is one of the most inflneutial young business men 
 in the city. He has been associated with many financial propositions 
 that would have taxed the ability of much older men, and has met every 
 business obstacle with the same clear-headed judgment and foresight 
 which were responsible for tlie trust reposed in him when he was a mere 
 youth. His success is the natural result of a combination of con- 
 .scientious industry and integrity. While other boys enjoyed what is 
 called superior advantages, and were spending their time in idle pleas- 
 ures, he was building a character foundation for his present position of 
 prominence in the business life of Raleigh. 
 
 Mr. Durfey was married April, 1914, to Miss Margaret W. Allen, 
 daughter of Mrs, T. W. Allen, of this city. They have a daughter. Miss 
 Frances Alston Durfey.
