Crutchfield departs to lead Hammett county high school
Mr J E Crutchfield longtime local editor and business manager of Tur Commonwrath leaves to become superintendent of the Hammett county high school at Lil lington. He leaves after assisting the paper during illness and earns praise for his intelligence courtesy and professional promise. Readers in Scotland Neck and Halifax county recall his steady contribution and farewell notes commend him as a scholarly Christian gentleman seeking success in education. A severe rainstorm then caused property damage in Scotland Neck with fallen trees, roof losses, a blown chimney flue, and a fatal accident at a tenant house as lightning struck near Mrs Margaret Leggett’s property and a large oak fell at the local school.
