6657 New York Times, 15 Mar 2013

Cartha D. DeLoach, who as a top aide and confidant to J. Edgar Hoover was the F.B.I.'s liaison to the White House and a powerful intermediary between Hoover and President Lyndon B. Johnson during an especially tense political era, died on Wednesday on Hilton Head Island, S.C. He was 92.

The death was confirmed by his son Tom.

Mr. DeLoach, who was known as Deke, spent more than 25 years in the Federal Bureau of Investigation, rising to deputy associate director, the No. 3 position, behind only Mr. Hoover and the associate director, Clyde Tolson.

Mr. DeLoach had met and worked with Johnson in the 1950s, when Johnson was the Senate majority leader; he and Johnson helped push through legislation guaranteeing Hoover a salary for life. In 1963, shortly after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, Johnson called Hoover — Mr. DeLoach said it was the day after Johnson was sworn in aboard Air Force One — and requested that Mr. DeLoach be assigned to the White House.

"There was political distrust between the two of them, but they both needed each other," Mr. DeLoach said in a 1991 oral history interview for the Johnson library at the University of Texas. "Mr. Hoover was anxious to retain his job and to stay on as director. He knew that the best way for the F.B.I. to operate fully and to get some cooperation of the White House was for him to be cooperative with President Johnson."

"President Johnson, on the other hand," Mr. DeLoach continued, "knew of Mr. Hoover's image in the United States, particularly among the middle-of-the-road conservative elements, and knew it was vast. He knew of the potential strength of the F.B.I. — insofar as being of assistance to the government and the White House is concerned. As a result it was a marriage, not altogether of necessity, but it was a definite friendship caused by necessity."

At the time, Mr. DeLoach headed the bureau's crime records division, which was also in charge of public affairs. He was a principal spokesman for the bureau in the investigation of the murders of James Earl Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner, three civil rights workers who were killed by the Ku Klux Klan in Mississippi in the early summer of 1964. Their bodies were not discovered until August; it was Mr. DeLoach who called the president to deliver the news.

Johnson called on the bureau to perform tasks that caused friction with other agencies. Fearful of assassination, he added F.B.I. agents to his security detail, infringing on the territory of the Secret Service. And he drew the bureau into the political arena, requesting investigations into political opponents and reporters.

Mr. DeLoach was the main conduit between Johnson and Hoover, and though he acknowledged that he knew the president occasionally asked the F.B.I. to overstep its authority, he said that other presidents had done the same, and that when the president of the United States asks for something, it is difficult to say no.

"DeLoach was always at L.B.J.'s beck and call, night and day," said Tim Weiner, a former New York Times reporter and the author of "Enemies: A History of the F.B.I.," published last year. "He was a talented political hatchet man, a trusted deputy to Hoover. He was also crucial to intelligence investigations conducted during the Johnson presidency."

Mr. DeLoach became head of F.B.I. investigations in 1965, leading the bureau's assault on the Klan after the 1964 killings in Mississippi. He supervised the investigation of the murder of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968. But he had also been part of the bureau's scrutiny of the civil rights movement and was aware of the bureau's secret surveillance of Dr. King in his private life. In Mr. Weiner's book, Nicholas Katzenbach, an attorney general under Johnson, said he believed that Mr. DeLoach had offered reporters the chance to listen to tapes of Dr. King having sex with a woman who was not his wife.

Mr. DeLoach denied that accusation.

Cartha Dekle DeLoach was born on July 20, 1920, in Claxton, Ga., about 50 miles west of Savannah. His father, Cartha Calhoun DeLoach, was a "merchant of some kind," Tom DeLoach said. The father died when Cartha, his only child, was 10 and "left the family in a whole lot of debt," Tom DeLoach said. Young Cartha worked in cotton fields to help pay the bills, and his mother, the former Eula Dekle, took in boarders. He played football at Claxton High School and on a football scholarship went to Stetson University in Florida, where he played quarterback.

Mr. DeLoach joined the F.B.I. in August 1942 as a clerk and became a special agent that December. He worked in field offices in Norfolk, Va., and Cleveland before going on military leave. He served in the Navy from 1944 to 1946. During his tenure at the bureau under Hoover, its priorities shifted from ferreting out spies during and after World War II, to combating communist ideologues during the early years of the cold war, to pursuing perceived threats to the country in the civil rights and anti-Vietnam War movements.

"Deke's commitment to the F.B.I. and to the American people at large was a hallmark of his life," Robert S. Mueller III, the F.B.I. director, said in a statement.

In addition to his son Tom, Mr. DeLoach is survived by his wife of 68 years, the former Barbara Owens; three other sons, Cartha Jr., who is also known as Deke, Gregory and Mark; three daughters, Barbara Lancaster, Theresa DeLoach and Sharon Bleifeld; and "countless grandchildren and great-grandchildren," Tom DeLoach said.

After retiring in 1970, Mr. DeLoach worked as a corporate affairs executive for Pepsico until 1985 and later in banking in South Carolina. When Hoover died in 1972, Mr. DeLoach was considered a possible replacement. In 1995, he published a memoir, "Hoover's F. B. I.: The Inside Story by Hoover's Trusted Lieutenant," in which he defended the F.B.I. against its many critics.

In a 2007 oral history interview with the Society of Former Special Agents of the F.B.I., he said: "In my humble opinion, despite the good job the F.B.I. has done, it has not received anywhere near sufficient credit for doing all the tremendous investigative work, all the sacrifice, the labor, the blood, the sweat, the tears, to put it proverbially, that we have done. We have not been given credit."

6660 NEWPORT NEWS - Hazel Howard Congdon, age 98. On the sunny afternoon of June 28 1937, Hazel Howard of Mountain City Tennessee and Edmond Congdon of Erwin Tennessee left the campus of East Tennessee State Teachers College. They were married by a justice of the peace in Gates City, Virginia before returning to campus. This small school in Johnson City, Tennessee prepared both for a lifetime of teaching in the public school systems of Erwin, Tennessee, then Vinton, Petersburg, and Colonial Heights, Virginia. In 1965 Edmond was appointed director of the new technical vocational center for the Peninsula area (VoTech) and Hazel resumed teaching in Newport News Elementary Schools until her retirement. Although widowhood befell Hazel in 1997, she continued to enjoy her home, family, neighbors, friends and former students until a fall this spring forced her to leave home and be lovingly cared for by her family and devoted rehab staff until she passed comfortably on June 30, 2013, a day after the 76th anniversary of her marriage. Although predeceased by parents Roby J. and Hallie S. Howard, husband Edmond and sister, Hester Williams many are left to remember and mourn the loss.

6661 NEWPORT NEWS - Jo Farthing Polhamus Smith of Newport News died Wednesday, November 4, 2015 at age 92. Jo was born July 23, 1923, in Watauga County, NC, to the late Herbert and Stella Farthing, the youngest and last surviving of their five children. After graduating from Bethel High School in Watauga County, Jo earned a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics from The Woman's College of UNC (now UNC-Greensboro) in 1944.

This degree led her to a job with NACA (predecessor of NASA) as a "computer" at Langley Research Center in Hampton. At NACA she played on the women's basketball team coached by young aeronautical engineer Edward C. Pollhamus, and they were married in October of 1945. Jo and "Eddie" had four sons: Edward C. Polhamus, Jr. (wife Linda) of Danville, William F. Polhamus (wife Linda) of Roanoke, and twins David and Daniel who died in infancy in 1960. After Eddie's death in 2001, Jo married widower G. Bernard Smith, who died in 2009. Jo and Eddie were active members of North Riverside Baptist Church for almost fifty years. Jo was most active in the WMU and in the church library. Bernard and his first wife Jean were also long-time active members of North Riverside, so Bernard and Jo continued that involvement to the extent permitted by their health. Jo also did volunteer work with Meals-on-Wheels, at Riverside Medical Center, and at the Virginia Baptist Home in Newport News, which was expanded to become The Chesapeake retirement center, where Jo lived from 2003 until her death.

In addition to her sons Ed and Bill, Jo is survived by step-children Dick (wife Joann) Smith of Williamsburg and Kim (husband Craig) Moore of Poquoson, Ed's sons Winston Polhamus of Virginia Beach and William (wife Tara) Polhamus of Midlothian and their mother Sheila Rust of Roanoke, Bill's sons Brian Polhamus and Scott Polhamus of Roanoke, Ed's step-children Devin Laflamme of Danville and Brenda (husband Adam) Taylor of Danville, and Kim's three sons of Poquoson. Jo's great-grandchildren include Cole and Josie Polhamus of Midlothian, along with Delaney West and Ava Taylor of Danville. She is also survived by numerous cousins, nieces and nephews, and her church family. Jo loved all of her family deeply and continuously.

A memorial service for Jo Farthing Polhamus Smith will be held at North Riverside Baptist Church, 311 Selden Road, Newport News, on Saturday, November 7, at 2:00 P.M., with a private burial at a later date. The Polhamus family would like to thank all the staff at The Chesapeake who served Jo so faithfully for 12 years, the staff of W. J. Smith and Son Funeral Home, and Interim Pastor Chris Gourley of North Riverside Baptist.

6662 NEWPORT NEWS, VA- Ira David Triplett, Sr., 85, Newport News, Virginia passed away on Sunday, February 21, 2016 at his home with family by his side. He was born November 20, 1930 in Butler, Tennessee to the late John Franklin and Sarah Elizabeth Hicks Triplett. Ira married Charlene Kyte of Butler in 1959 at Hagerstown, Maryland. They were happily married for 56 years. He was passionate about his faith and devoted to his family.

Ira was drafted in the United States Army in 1952 to support the Korean War and went on to have a distinguished 20 year Career. His Military service was indicative of his life; a passion for learning. He started out as a heavy equipment dispatcher, transitioned to a heavy vehicle driver, converted to a combat medic, and finished his career as a helicopter crew chief. He served overseas assignments in Germany, Greenland, Hawaii, Italy, Korea, Okinawa and three tours in Vietnam where he earned two Air Medals for over 50 Aerial Missions in hostile territory in support of counter-insurgency operations. From 1969 to 1971, he served as Chief Electrical Engineer in President Richard Nixon's Presidential Flight Detachment, Army One and retired as a Sergeant First Class in 1972 at Fort Eustis, Virginia.

Ira began his second career in civil service at the Naval Air Rework Facility in Norfolk, Virginia, as an electrician on A-6 and F-14 aircraft after retiring from the military. He left civil service after 14 years in 1986 in pursuit of his entrepreneurial spirit. In 1986, he became self-employed and opened Big John's Citizens Band Sales, which operated in several locations in Newport News, Gloucester and Fredericksburg, Virginia. Ira sold CB radios, car boom boxes and stereo equipment at their peaks of popularity in the 1980s for a generation of customers.

In competition against big-box stores in the local area, Ira finally retired in 1995 but remained busy and connected to his expanding but displaced family by traveling across the United States to visit his sons John in Missouri and Shawn on various Army assignments.

Ira was a family man from humble beginnings in the Mountains of Tennessee that demanded a good work ethic and pursuit of higher learning from his children and grandchildren. His mantra, "to get a job, get an education, or join the military" will forever be passed down to future generations. He will forever be remembered for his love of family, strong will, and generosity to strangers. He was an avid animal lover and active member of the local American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) at 523 J. Clyde Morris Blvd in Newport News, Virginia. He adopted his three dogs, Baby, Shannon and a beagle named Hugo, from local shelters.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brothers, Robert Triplett, Dewie and Henry Hicks and his sisters: Ada Waycaster and Roxie.

Survivors include his wife: Charlene Kyte Triplett. His children: Ira David Triplett, Jr and wife Retha (Duffield) of Butler; John Triplett and wife Tammy (Hicks) of Kirksville, Missouri; Shawn Triplett and wife Isabella (Edwards), Tucson, Arizona; and Pamela Raines and husband Michael Raines, Newport News, Virginia; his grandchildren: Jordan, Deirdre, Ivan, Kyle, Kayla, Meghan and Jacob; his great grandchildren: Loki, Bradley, Jayce and Jayden and many nieces, nephews and other relatives.

A Graveside Service will be conducted at 2 p.m. Friday, June 24, 2016 in the Kyte Family Cemetery, Pine Orchard Road, Butler with Mr. Freddie Anderson officiating. Military Honors will be provided by the Tennessee National Guard.

6667 Nick was born on December 26, 1851. By the time Nick was just three years old both his mother, Mary Heaton Grindstaff, and his father, Issac Grindstaff, died. Nick and his three siblings were left orphans. Nick lived with relatives until he was 21 years old. He was an active member of the Baptist church. At age 21 Nick's parents' farm was divided into fourths for the children. Nick built a house on his fourth and began to farm the land. After five years of farming Nick sold his farm to E. S. Jordon and decided to go west.

Nick was robbed of everything he owned. He went to Benjamin Wilson in Missouri for help. Benjamin had moved to Missouri from Carter County. Benjamin sent Nick back home. After Nick return he lived with Mr. Jordan. He refused to stay with any of his relatives. After a while Nick decided to live on Iron Mountain. He went to the highest peak where Johnson and Carter Counties dividing line are and built a hut of logs and boards. Nick lived in this hut for more than 30 years. Nick stayed busy clearing land, building fences, and raising a garden. He gathered roots and herbs and traded them for supplies.

Nick defended himself with a barlow knife, an ax, and a hickory stick. Although Nick isolated himself and looked rugged from the many layers of old clothes and the long hair he wore, no one was afraid of him because of his kindness.

On July 21, 1923 Baxter McEwen went by to check on Nick. He found him dead on the bunk in his hut. His faithful dog had been keeping watch over his master's dead body for the past three or four days. The dog had to be tied before men could carry out Nick's body for burial. Nick was buried on the mountain peak where he lived the last 30 years of his life. A gravestone was erected so passersby would remember Nick. Today the Appalachian Trail passes by the area. The Cherokee National Forest maintains the monument that marks Nick's burial site.
