electronic aids which assist the courteous people who serve you cracked and rough on the edges were more than intelligible He was of course an accomplished lip reader and he wrote architecturally about what he saw going which was everything HE HAD one woman in his the tiny town of Southport in undeveloped moss-hung camellia-blooming swamp-ridden hurricane-pestered Brunswick County He had one big enemy the comparatively large city of Wilmington across the Cape Fear River 30 miles away Old Bill was the greatest press agent for the tiny little salty town that ever was He had governors and senators In the hollow of his hand and he hammered the press into accepting the simple fact (to him) that there was one county and one city In the world The county was Brunswick and the city was Southport everj thing else was simply sticks His crowning achievement which he accom- plished almost single-handed was to get the government to build abillion-dolJar ammunition loading depot at Southport close at hand in sunny point There was some worry that all these new people and new money would absorb the pueblo But Southport like China absorbs everybody and Sunny Point's Yankees joined

was 71 years old when he lost his only battle and he was what we call a boar coon down in these parts He was a lean pipe-smoking brilliant man who put out a paper The State Port Pilot for a whole lot

the paper called "Not Exactly But there was nothing countrified about this country weekly Its format was as sharp as any big metropolitan daily and still is I FORGOT to mention earlier that Bill Keziah had been stone deaf since he had infantile paralysis or some vague brain fever when he was a nipper of 6 He passed out for a year and when he came to the lovely calling of quail and the mockingbird's sassy talk had forever gone from his ears He was deaf and he might have been dumb But somehow this remarkable man learn- ed to read while recovering and he relearned how to talk although he couldn't hear his own voice And he had been a crack reporter and writer In a major-league since he was a youngster His voice was strange to hear since he had no modulation controls but his words
