Bro. Henry T. KING, of the Tarboro “Banner,” spent Sunday last in this city.  There seems to be some attraction down here for him.  He wants a Queen and came to this town to Hunt(h)er.  Well brother you are on the right track and if successful you could not find one more queenly, but we would regret to give her up even to a King.
