Trose Who Have Answered the Sum-mons
During the Pamt Week.
Robert M. Phillips.
R. M. Phillips, associate editor of
*he Greensboro Dai:y News, died sud-denly
at the home of his father near
Carthage, in Moore county, Wednes-day
night at 6 o'clock. Mr. Phll-lir*
had been complaining of stom-ach
trouble for some 'ime, but his
friends were not prepared for the
announcement of his death.
Mr. Phillips was forty-eight years
Of age, and had been in the news-paper
business since he was 15 years
of age. A printer for many years
he afterwards quit the "case'1 to
become a writer. He was editor of
the Greensboro Telegram for a
coupl© of years back in 18H8-1900,
and then went to Raleigh to become
city editor of the Raleigh Post. I'p-on
the death of Robert b urman Phil-lips
became editor-in-chief of the
Post and did splendid work for sev-eral
years. He a'so was editor of
the Newbern Sun. and something
like three years ago came back to
Greensboro and was associate editor
of the News.
"Bob" Phillips had many friends
and no enemy for cause. He was
sunshine, always. He was broad, lib-eral,
kind and sympathetic. His pen
never wounded any man and his
tongue spoke charily. He was per-haps
the best known and best-liked
newspaper man in North Carolina,
and the announcement of his death.
so entirely unexpected, will be a dis-tinct
shock to hundreds of people
who knew him personally or by rep-utation.
The editor of The Patriot
feels that he has lost, in "Bobs''
going, a sincere and unselfish friend.

Railroad Man Meets Trag'c Dea«h in
Greensboro Monday.
While attempting to board a freigh'
train on 'he railroad yards in Greens;
boro Monday morning at an early
hour in the hope of reaching home
earlier than to wait for passenger
train leaving several hours later,
John Warren, of Selma, sect'on mas-ter
on the Southern Railway yards
at that place, was killed on the
track near the Davie street crossing.
His body was crushed almost "n
two, when the wheels of a fre'ght
train caboose passed directly over
his chest. Death was instantaneous.
The body was moved to a local un-dertaking
establishment aid pre-pared
for burial, and a son employ-ed
in the office of the Southern at
Wilson, notfied of the distressing
accident.
The dead man was re"d ly recog-nized
by other trainmen who were
personally acquainted w'th him. He
was a man about 60 or 65 years cf
age.
The body was taken to Selma for
