Mr. K.M. Barnes and son, Master John Rhodes, Mr. F.P. Gray and son, Master Pendleton, and Mr. H.E. Stacy spent a few hours in Tarboro yesterday with Rev. Dr. R.C. Beaman, former pastor of Chestnut Street Methodist Church of Lumberton, who has been in failing health for some time. They found Dr. Beaman very thin, emaciated and weak, but Mr. Gray thinks his condition has improved somewhat since he visited him several weeks ago, and that Dr. Beaman is more cheerful. He is confined to bed but sat on the side of his bed a while and talked with his visitors. Owing to the absence of Dr. Beaman’s son, Mr. Southgate Beaman, who was in Norfolk consulting a specialist, Dr. and Mrs. Beaman’s proposed move to Lumberton was not discussed. It is understood that their residence at Pine and Fourteenth will evacuated Wednesday or Thursday of this week and that Dr. and Mrs. Beaman will move to Lumberton as soon as Dr. Beaman’s condition will permit.
