DAVID WORTH AND WIFE EUNICE, WHOSE MAIDEN NAME WAS GARDNER. vi "Was born June 28, ISll, in Guilford County, near Centre Church. Graduatetl at the Louisville (Ivy.) College of Med- icine. In is8-t he was married to ^liss Sarah Dicks, daugh- ter of Peter Dicks, and settled at Xew Salem, in Randolph County, where he practiced medicine. He was afterwards a citizen of Montgomery County, and was engaged in the practice of medicine, also mining and merchandising. From 1852 to 185G Dr. Worth was Senator from Mont- gomery County. About 'ii^iy'o he settled in Asheboro as a merchant and a man of genei'al enterprise. From 1870 to 1875 he was Senator from Randolph County. From Novem- ber 22,1876, to January 21, 1885, he was State Treasurer. In 1877 and 1878 we rind him representing Randolph in the House. Dr. "Worth did more, perhajis, than any other one man to get the State debt consolidated, thus forever securing his fame as a financier. He is a man about eighty-three years old, and is still full of energy, enterprise and i)ublic spirit. < d o o o u Q -J a O -J u o o uS D _l a. cc D O O O O O h- co _J < < o CO o cc < > o o o o o _ ^ -I tu Q:: < > is Z Q. < S LlJ CO Q Z < I 5o o ^ O CO UJ _i < CD O O o > ^ U.

It has been a real "labor of love" for me to compile this Business Directory of my native county — the home of my childhood and youth; hence many little historical shetches appear in the book. "Reminiscences of Randolph County," by my life-long friend, J. Adtlison Blair, aided me very greatly. Mr. Blair calls up — then beautifies and sweetens the old-time memories. The county has not only held her own, but has gone for- ward handsomely during the thirty-eight yearsof my absence. Randolph now feels the quickening pulse of 76.45 miles of railroads, as follows : North Carolina Railroail .70 mile. Cape Fear and Yakin Valley Railroad 30.10 miles. High Point, Randleman, Asheboro and South- ern Railroad 26.65 " Factory Branch (C. F. & Y. V.) Railroad 19.00 " Total 76.45 " The county has 720 square miles of territory. She now has fourteen cotton factories, and these not only beautify and enrich, but they render musical the very air of the county. This is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful sections of the State, and a grand future is in store for the laud of our birth if we still remain true to her destiny. Randolph has furnished the State two State Treasurers and one Governor. I here return my warmest thanks to many prominent citi- zens who have aided me in compiling this book. At some future time I hope to publish a revised edition that shall be larger and better in every way. LEVI BRANSON. Raleigh, N. C, June 23, 1894. CONTENTS. PART I. The Postoffices, page.

H.), \ Seventy-two miles west of Raleigh, is the county seat of \ Randolph County, and was built on land purchased from Jesse Henly in 1793. Mr. Henly gave two acres of land for public buildings, and the first court was held here June 12, 1793, in a small wooden house. The present handsome brick structure was erected in 1835, under the supervision of Jona- than Worth, afterwards Governor of North Carolina. In July, 1889, the High Point, Randleman, Asheboro and South- ern Railroad wys completed to this place, since which time the population has increased rapidly, and is now estimated at 1,500. Asheboro was named in compliment to Samuel Ashe, a distinguished soldier and statesman of the American Revolution, and who became Governor of the State in 1795. The courts of the county were first held at Abram Recce's house (1779), about half way between Brown's Cross Roads (old Johnsonville Court House) and Randleman Factory. Courts were held afterwards (1786) at Johnsonville, until June 12, 1793, when the first court was held at Asheboro. ASHEBORO, Asheboro Township. Mrs. E. B. McCain, Postmistress. Popu- lation, 1,500.

Foust, Washington Brower, Henry Kivell, Dennis Curtis and Dan- iel Kime. They called it Columbia Factory. The town is situated on Deep river, a short distance below the mouth of Sandy creek ; and since June 26, 1890, has been the terminus of the Factory Branch of the C. F. & Y. V. Railroad. In 1879 the property changed hands and is now owned and ope- rated by W. H. Watkins, A. W. E. Capel, T. L. Chisholm and J. S. Spencer. The population is estimated at 900. The Columbia Manufacturing Company, witli a capital stock of $90,000 and a surplus of $85,000, is the leading enterprise of the town. The Alberta Chair Works, S25,000 capital, is next in magnitude. The town has also two good churches, one good hotel, one high school, under management of Prof. F. S. Blair, several large stores, a handsome depot, also a splendid bridge across Deep river. Ramseur is withal a model town for industry, push, pluck, high morals and christian living. Hardly any place in the State would seem to have a brighter future. Not far below Ramseur, on Deep 52 RANDOLPH COUNTY river, was the birthplace of Braxton Craven, D. D.,. LL. D. He was brought up largely by Nathan Cox, a Quaker of undoubted honesty. Dr. Craven lived to beau honor to the entire County, to the State and to the Nation. Many good and really great men have lived along U[) and down Deep river within tiie bounds of Randolph County. Of the towns that have sprung up along the river, perhaps none have a more hopeful future in prospect than Ramseur. Tlie owners of the factories are all faithful workers in the church and benefactors to humanity. RAiMSEUR, Columbia Townshij), is the terminus of Factory Branch C. F. & Y. Y.

It is the largest manufacturing town in the county, and, in fact, has the largest population. Long ago Peter Dicks had a grist mill and an oil mill at this place, which was then called Dicks. In 1818 Jesse Walker, William Clark, Joseph Newlin, James Dicks and William Hinshaw erected a cotton mill here and called it Union Fac- tory. In 1866 John Randleman and John H. Ferree acquired control of the property and the name was changed to Ran- dleman. The Kandleman Mills, including the Quinn Mill, are now owned and operated by John H. Ferree. Naomi Falls Factory (owned by a stock company), Powha- tan Plaid Mills and the Randleman Hosiery Mill (making six cotton mills) are all within the corporation, and Worth- ville Factory is only two miles down the river. In 1885 the Randleman Mill was burnt, but it was immediately rebuilt, and is now one of the leading manufactories of the State. The town has four churches, two hotels, a graded school and many other signs of prosperity. The High Point, Randleman, Asheboro and Southern Railroad has a fine depot here, and reaches the town by a loop, giving) a beautiful view as the train sweeps around the brow of the/ hill overlooking the place from the west. Within the town limits is Naomi Falls, named after Naomi Wise, who was drowned here by Jonathan Lewis about the year 1808. Naomi Falls Factory was also named for the ill-fated Naomi. It was built by J. E. Walker, John H. Ferree, J. 0. Pickard and Amos Gregson in 1879. Dr. Braxton Craven, after an able discourse, dedicated this factory building to "Almighty God, for the purpose and uses of Christian work." This was a new departure and a good example, and it is remarkable that the factories of Randolph County are conducted almost entirely by Christian gentlemen of very high type. RANDLEMAN.

The calculations of this Almanac are made in mean solar or clock time, which is indicated by a well rej^ulaled clock or watch, and does not correspond with the sun precisely, except on four days of the year. Apparent time is that which makes the Sun come to the meridian at I2 o'clock. No good clock will run with the Sun; if set with the Sun on the 2d of January, the clock will seem to be one minute too fast on the 3d of January. To adopt the calculations of this Almanac to apparent time, use the minutes in the column marked " Sun slow" or "Sun fast;" add them when fast, sub- iti tract them when slow. ^ The calculations are made for the Latitude and Longitude of Raleigh, N. C, O but the times, phases, &c., will vary only a few minutes for any part of North 2* Carolina, South Carolina, (jeorgia, Tennessee or Virginia. pL| RISING AND SETTING OF THE SUN. ^ The Almanacs generally used have made the rising and setting of the Sun C together equal twelve hours. This is incorrect. During some portions of the 5 year the .Sun changes so rapidly in Right Ascension and Declination that it ^ makes a material change in the Diurnal Arc during the day. The times here g given have been rigorously calculated and compared with the authority, and are S true to the nearest whole minute. g TWELVE SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC. The Head snd Face sign.

In the year 1894 there will be four Eclipses — two of the Sun and two of the Moon, and a transit of Mercury over the sun's disk. I. A partial Eclipse of the Moon March 21st, not visible in North Carolina. II. An Annular Eclipse of the Sun April 6th, not visible in North Carolina. III. A partial Eclipse of the Moon September 15th, visible more or less in North and South America. Moon enters shadow 3:35 A. M., leaves shadow 5:27 A. M. IV. A total Eclipse of the Sun September 29lh, not visible in North Caro- lina. A Transit of Mercury over the Sun's disk November lOth, visible generally to North and South America. The Transit comes on at loh. 56m. a. m , and goes off at 4h. 12m. r. m. It commences on the Eastern limb of the Sun. TIDES. The time of tide can readily be found for the following places by adding the hours and minutes opposite the names to the time when the Moon is South on the day to which the tide is sought. The time when the Moon is South is given in the Calendar for every day. The next tide can be found very nearly by adding 12 hours and 29 minutes to the time of the one previous. The tides are given in local time — add 12 minutes for Eastern Standard. H. M. ; H. M.

HERSCHEL'S WEATHER PROGNOSTICATOR For Foretelling the Weather through all the Lunations of the Year. ttf) OS 09 o g QQ This table and the accompanying remarks are the result of many years actual observation, the whole being constructed on a due consideration of the attrac- tions of the Sun and Moon, in their several positions respecting the Earth, and, by simple inspection, it shows the observer what kind of weather will most probably follow the entrance of the Moon into any of its quarters, and that sa near the truth as to be seldom or never found to fail. If the new moon, first quar- ter, full moon, or last quarter, happen — OS Between midnight and 2 in the morning Fair.

The nearer to midday or noon the phase of the Moon happens, the more foul or wet weather may be expected during the next seven days. 4. The space for this calculation occupies from 10 in the forenoon until 2 in the afternoon. These observations refer principally to the Summer, though ^ they affect Spring and Autumn nearly in the same ratio. © 5. The Moon's change, first quarter, full and last quarter, happening during OQ six of the afternoon hours, i. e., from 4 to 10, may be followed by fair weather, but this is mostly dependent on the wind, as is noted in the table. 6. Though the weather, from a variety of irregular causes, is more uncertain in the latter part of Autumn, the whole of Winter and the beginning of Spring, yet, in the main, the above observations will apply to those periods also. 7. To prognosticate correctly, especially in those cases where the wind is con- cerned, the observer should be in sight of a good vane, where the four cardinal points of the heavens are correctly placed. BRANSON'S NORTH CAROLINA ALMANAC. FARM AND GARDEN. Farm and Garden Work for January. — Plant peas, beans, beets, onions. Irish potatoes, horse radish; sow turnips, spinach, lettuce, radish, parsley, carl rots, salsify. Plant early peas; artichokes must now be dressed, also asparagus beds; this is the proper time to sow early spring tomatoes, etc. Prepare land for the next crop, if not done. In the low country, if mud marsh or rushes are used, this is a good lime to haul out and spread in the alleys, and throw upon it a slight listing. Repair fences, plow, ditch, drain and manure. You can sow oats for a first crop. Farm and Garden Work for February. — Continue to sow peas, and such vegetables as were omitted in January. Plant pole beans, first crop (in the low country); full crop Irish potatoes, beets and carrots; dress artichokes and aspara- gus. Tomatoes, peppers a^d cucumbers sow in hot beds; put out mangoes. This is considered the opening month of the planter's year. Continue pre- paring as in January. Sow oats for a full crop in the low country; plant Irish potatoes; make up sprout beds for sweet potatoes. Plant root crop of sweet potatoes. Farm and Garden Work for March. — Plant bush squash, pumpkins, water and muskmelons. okra. Guinea squash or egg-plant, sugar beets, carrots, beans, peas, radishes, lettuce, corn, celery (first crop), tanyah and mangoes in the low country and elsewhere as soon as danger from frost is over. This is the first planting month for cotton, corn and rice. Plant your high lands first; leave the low lands for April. Plant rice about the 20th of the month. Farm and Garden Work for April. — Whatever has been omitted in March, do not neglect any longer. Sow green glazed cabbage, pickling cab- bage, full crop of cauliflower and brocoli. okra. tomatoes, peppers, beets, car- rots, leeks, melons, cucumbers, celery. Full crops of corn, cotton and rice should be put in during this month. Plant your lowland corn. Commence early to hoe your young cotton, and thin out to stand. Plant pumpkins for a field crop. Farm and Garden Work for May. — Plant snap beans and squashes. Sow cabbages for winter use, cauliflower, brocoli, celery, beets, carrots, salsify. Plant cucumbers, melons and pumpkins for late crop. Gather herbs for drying; always dry gently in the shade. Look well to your hoeings and plowings. Continue to plant corn in low lands. Sow first crop of early cow peas. Rice planting is generally postponed until June, as the birds are very bad in May, and the May bird is exceedingly destructive. Farm and Garden Work for June. — Sow full crops of cabbs>ges for fall and winter use. Cauliflower and brocoli may yet be sown, also a few carrots. Continue to sow tomatoes, okra, radishes, snap beans. Transplant leeks; pull and dry onions, garlic and eschalots. A few cucumbers and melons plant for a late crop, and a few ruta baga turnips. Keep constantly at the plow and hoe; this is the most important grass month! If the vines from your sweet potato sprout-bed are fit you can draw and plant out first good rain. Sow cow peas between your corn hills and rows. The end of this month is a good time to put in the first crop of standing field peas. Farm and Garden W'ork for July. — Sow cabbages, but protect from hot sun when young. Water at night. Plant snap beans and a few Irish potatoes. Continue to sow radishes, lettuce, endive, cresses, mustard and small salading. The early Dutch turnip is the best to sow for the first crop; follow with the yellow Swedish or ruta-baga. Now do not omit to sow full crops of standing cow peas. .Sow a few turnips, carrots and beets as field crops, though the hot suns are apt to destroy them; should they escape they will be fine; the next month is the best for these crops.

" Jesus, lover of my soul," Rose the words, sweet and clear. From the lips of a little child, Drifting fast to the other world. " Let me to thy bosom fly," She repeated, o'er and o'er. While her sweet brown eyes beheld Visions on the other shore. " While the nearer waters roll," And her voice was fainter still, But her echo rang more clear Far beyond the heavenly hills. " W^hile the tempest still is high," When the angels took her home, And Jesus bade her sing the rest As she stood before the throne. " Hide me, O my Saviour, hide," Thus we sang while bending low O'er the empty casket left For its precious gem had flown. " Till the storm of life is past," Came these words from trembling lips As the sweet, white lids were closed Over eyes with love once lit. " Safe into the haven guide," We sang the hymn soft and low. While we laid our darling's form Far beneath the drifting snow. " O receive my soul at last," Swelled this plea from aching hearts' As we turned in blinding tears From that low and sacred spot. But the Saviour heard our cry Ere we reached our darkened home. And he gave us strength to say, "Thy will, O Lord, not mine be done." And as we sat that night alone. And thought of her safe in the fold. We sang her hymn with happy hearts, "Jesus, lover of my soul." October 5, 1893. L. II.
