Stockings Worn
3 Generations

Asheboro, N. C., July 15. -- (AP) -- Stockings made in 1812, now the property of the third generation of the family since they were made, are the cherished possession of Mrs. S. R. Henley of Randolph county.

The stockings were made for Darius Hinshaw by his aunt, Mrs. Hannah Hinshaw, when he was only a few days old.

His daughter is Mrs. Henley, who is one of the older citizens of the county.

Mrs. Hinshaw raised the cotton, spun the thread and knitted the hose.    The stockings were worn, Mrs. Henley says, by her father, his children and his grand children.

Another prized possession of Mrs. Henley is a red silk bandanna handkerchief which belonged to her brother, W. B. Hinshaw, 80 years ago.
