Description An account of the resource [page 28] [corresponds to page 26 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Resolutions We recognize that education must include three phases of life, the physical, the mental, and the moral. Each must be developed to make the perfect man. The Board of Education has observed with pleasure the splendid work of our basketball team in the tournament just closed, and we desire at this time to express our appreciation of their great achievement in this, the greatest contest of its kind ever held. We watched eagerly game after game in which D.H.S. participated during the two days and evenings of the southern division contest. With enthusiasm unbounded we saw the Orange and Black emerge victors over the crack teams of Piqua and Xenia. At the end of the sixth round of contests, with seventy-seven teams of this division defeated, there remained but two undefeated teams, Delaware and Greenfield. This of itself was a signal honor for Delaware and for each member of the team. Probably the hardest fought game of the tourna- ment was the Delaware-Piqua game. Piqua came to Delaware with the season's record of unbroken vic- tories. Having vanquished everything she met in southwestern Ohio, she came with high hopes of state championship honors. Perhaps the greatest exhibition of individual self-control and skill ever seen in a high school basketball game was shown by Captain Turney at the close of this battle. The score was a tie. Piqua fouled Delaware. The pis- tol cracked. Time up. And in the presence of 2500 people Captain Turney took his position in front of the basket. The fate of Delaware rested on his ability to drop the ball through the basket. Indif- ferent to the breathless condition of his tense audi- ence, and with the utmost skill and precision, he dropped the ball through the center of the basket, thus winning the game for Delaware. The defeat of Greenfield by Delaware and the Mt. Vernon championship game are fresh in the minds of all. To stand with one foot on the top- most round of the ladder and have the vanquished host of more than one hundred and fifty of the best teams in Ohio look up at you with admiration, is an enviable position for any team to attain. Every member of the team deserves his full share of cred- it. Such eminence in athletics can be attained only by the best team work. We realize that no school can put such a team in the field without a faithful second team ever ready and willing to scrimmage with the first. With all these things our efforts would come to naught without a competent, en- thusiastic coach. This we have had in the person of Mr. Mahon. The loyal support of the student body has also been an important factor. You have brought honor to your high school and to the city of Delaware. Therefore, be it resolved by the Delaware City Board of Education, that we extend to the Delaware High School basketball team and Coach Mahon our heartiest congratula- tions for the excellent record you made in the re- cent basketball tournament. We want the boys and girls to know that we are deeply interested in your welfare and will do everything in our power to ad- vance the interests of this high school and its in- ter-school contests. C. A. MORRISON, President. CHAS. S. MASON, Vice President. R. K. WILLIS, Clerk. Next Year's Captain Next year's football captain, Scott Radcliffe, was chosen at a banquet given by Coach Mahon soon af- ter the close of the season. Scott, who is well known for his ability in breaking up the opponent's plays, is a find selection for the captaincy, and, because he is athletic editor of the Bulletin, nothing was said about his good work. There will be five "D" men missing from the squad next year, but if everyone takes the interest that I know the captain and coach manifest, there will be another successful football season. -HAROLD SPAULDING, '22. 26 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 28) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/ad76d025b7bb785290a54e80837a660d.jpg 057c5ab29f632dbc5c9eec645e63c12b Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 30] [corresponds to page 28 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin [photograph of basketball team] Basketball '21-'22 Delaware High started its 1921-1922 basketball season under the direction of Coach Mahon with three "D" men, Captain Spaulding, Turney, and High- warden. With this firm foundation upon which to build a team, the prospects for the coming season looked very bright. The first game was played with Hyatts on the Delaware court. Spaulding was the only man on the Delaware team that could locate the basket, and due to the exceptional playing of Hill from Hyatts, the home team was sent down to defeat. The next game was played in Crestline where Delaware, with Perry as star, was victor by a 21-14 score. The fol- lowing week we suffered defeat at Galion in a close- ly fought contest, which was won only after a neces- sary overtime period. Following our defeat at Galion we made a great comeback and defeated both Ashland and South High of Columbus on our own floor. Perry was high point man in the Ashland contest and Turney proved best in the South High game. Following this last game our team became se- verely crippled. Perry and Highwarden were tem- porarily unable to play, and Spaulding was forced out of the game for the rest of the season on ac- count of illness. We suffered several straight de- feats, and only rallied in the last schedule game of the season, defeating Harding 33-13, thus revenging ourselves for our defeat at their hands earlier in the season. After the close of the schedule season the team worked hard for two solid weeks in preparation for the tournament. This extra training was not in vain, for Delaware won six straight games in the prelim- inaries of the southern division and came back the next week-end to play in the finals. Piqua and Xenia, two of the best teams in the southern divi- sion, fell prey to our superior team work. Turney was the main factor in pulling us through, and his ability at shooting baskets, as well as his exception- ally fine floor work, won him a place on the All- State team. Commendable mention must also be made of the unusual guarding of Highwarden which placed him securely on the second All-State. In the game for the championship of Southern Ohio the following week we were matched against the strong Greenfield aggregation. here again Turney played one of the best games of his basketball ca- reer, and we emerged with the long end of a 34-14 score, leaving us to play Mount Vernon in the finals for the championship of Ohio. The championship game was played before the largest audience ever assembled in Edwards Gym- nasium. We have no alibi to offer for our defeat. Mount Vernon had the better team, and won the game and honor by a 33-17 score. We are proud to have met such a team as Mount Vernon, for they deserved their victory; at the same time we cannot forego an expression of our own pride in the team that won the championship of Southern Ohio. -SCOTT RADCLIFFE. 28 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 30) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/662d4120cf2d7561bef720fc0ee7a332.jpg 563a47bd3df1eed8b899e4f54b23908d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 31] [corresponds to page 29 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin [photograph of football team] Football, 1921 A promising outlook greeted the opening of D.H.S. football season: Seven "D" men with a host of new material, many of whom had played before, reported for the first work-out. In past years we had great difficulty in securing a coach, and generally took whomever we could get. This trouble was obviated by the election of Mr. George Mahon to the faculty corps. This former Wesleyan star joined our school as teacher of Mathematics, athletic director and coach. Under this new system, both coach and stu- dents have taken greater interest in sports. After two weeks' hard practice, we were met by the strong aggregation from South High of Colum- bus, and defeated 7-0. The following week, we went to Columbus, where we played Aquinas, another Capital City team, and, through a few costly fumbles, we came home with the small end of a 13-0 score. Smarting under our two defeats, we prepared for the Ashland game, with the determination to bring about a vicotry--and so we did--for they were put away with a disheartening 28-0 tally. The stellar playing of Turney and Highwarden brought about this victory. Next came Mansfield. They were determined to avenge the defeat of their neighbor, Ashland, but in this they were disappointed, for we tucked them away with the stinging defeat of 24-19. This was one of the best games played on teh local field in years, and the team received great praise from the papers and from the town fans. The exceptionally good playing of Turney and Spaulding was the fea- ture of this contest. The following week we played Galion in another home game. We were unable to repeat the work of the preceding Saturday and they were our victors by the unhappy margin of 28-7. Through the good work of Spaulding and Highwarden, we succeeded in getting one touchdown. Because of a heavy snowfall, it seemed as if our season were temporarily at a standfill. This condi- tion hindered our practice but little, however, and the fellows, determined to put Bucyrus under cover, practiced early and late, regardless of the weather. The contest was staged at Bucyrus on a snow-cov- ered field. Unfortunately, the team was greatly crippled by the absence of Highwarden and Sands, who were laid up on account of injuries received in previous games. The loss of these men drove the team to fight harder than ever to overcome this de- ficiency, and although Delaware outplayed their op- ponents, they lost their only chance to score when Turney collided with the goal post. The game ended with a 0-0 score. We journeyed to Zanesville the following week, where we played in a sea of mud; but the boys didn't seem to mind this, and, due to the ability of Turney and Spaulding to cross their opponents' goal-line, we brought home the bacon. The ensuing Saturday we met Marion on their home field and suffered our first defeat from them in years. We finished the season by defeating the Alumni 7-0 in our annual Turkey-day game. -SCOTT RADCLIFFE. 29 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 31) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/9055f23d08e01c127fbf0931f163f565.jpg b3703889693d3fc565a9ea4a40164be5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 32] [corresponds to page 30 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin [photograph of girls' basketball team] Girls' athletics in D.H.S. started off in fine shape under the direction of Miss Marjorie Crimm, our coach of 1921. After many hard practice games, teams were picked from the excellent material of each class squad, all working hard to perfect their passwork and basket-shooting in anticipation of the third annual basketball tournament. This event was started by a series of preliminary games, played every week. The first two were played between the Seniors and Juniors, followed by a Sophomore- Freshman game. The outcome of these games was in favor of the Seniors and Sophomores. The sec- ond two games of the series were between the Se- niors and Freshmen, and the Juniors and Sopho- mores; in these contests the Seniors again were victors and the Juniors on good footing. Next came the semi-finals, which were played with much pep and enthusiasm by all classes. The upper classes, kept always on the jump, won by hard playing, thus bringing them together for the final and decisive game. Everyone on the teams adhered to strict training; more careful practice and coaching was gone through, and much interest displayed. In the last and long looked-forward-to game, the Junior team won by a score of 14 to 8, thus winning the championship. A consolation game followed be- tween the Sophomores and Freshmen in which the "Sophs" got the long end of a 12 to 2 score. The usual stunts between halves showed much originality and humor in their portrayal of old- fashioned customs, a mock girls' basketball game, and a pipe-organ performance.

Description An account of the resource [page 34] [corresponds to page 32 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Affirmative Debate Team [photographs] Dorothy Whipple Beverly Kelley Elizabeth Hoffman Harold Stephens The past debate year in Delaware High School has been successful from two standpoints: first, in the number of points scored, and second, in the devel- oping of six excellent debaters. The goal of the debaters and coaches has been not to win decisions alone, but the important aim was turning out from D.H.S. clear thinkers, and young men and women who would understand the value of hard work as well as constructive mental discipline. This we believe has been accomplished. In following this as a purpose we were most for- tunate in having Mr. Harold W. Roupp from Ohio Wesleyan University, who is an experienced debater, as our coach and instructor. Although we did not win the silver cup we scored four out of a possible six points. There is a gen- eral feeling among the High School students that the decision of the Marion-Delaware debate was un- warranted. However, the team offers no apology, believing with the audience, that they had won the debate even though the decision was against them.

And feeling as we do about it, we wish to urge more students to go out for this forensic activity next year. It is important that the school show well in mental as well as physical com- bat. There are three chief reasons why Delaware High was successful during the past year: first, we receiv- ed excellent coaching from Miss Phillips and Mr. Roupp; second, the teams were not afraid of hard work; and third, we knew that the school was be- hind us, wishing us to do our best and win. The year of 1923 will see three seasoned debaters back in school. Our best wishes to next year's team. We hope they will be even more successful than we have been, and win the silver loving cup for Dela- ware High. -JOHN BEAL.

In order to be truthfully rated as a first class high school we should have such a library. We consider the action of the recently graduated class- es in devoting their money to the equipment of a high school reference room as very commendable. Our aesthetic sense has been cultivated by the pic- tures and statues which former classes have donat- ed, and now we are glad for the practical develop- ment afforded by the funds raised in more recent years. Many school activities have contributed to this cause, and the collection is growing quite large. The class of 1918 gave four beautiful oak library tables. One hundred and ninety-four dollars was donated by the class of 1919 for books. Among these volumes is a set of New International En- cyclopedias, a Dictionary, and forty dollars worth of other books. The Bulletins of the years of 1919, 1920, and 1921 have altogether given $333.33. The interest from the high school Liberty bond is being used for the collection. We must not overlook the manual training boys who have made the fine book shelves. The total sum amounts to $626.45. Thus we see that the library is well under way, and we expect that it will be in good working order by next year. The Hayes Centennial When the news came that Warren G. Harding had been elected by an overwhelming majority to the Chief Executive Office, enthusiasm and excite- ment prevailed here not only because another Pres- ident had been added to Ohio's long list of famous sons, but because his residence is only twenty miles away from our city. That was all very well; but we cannot help wondering whether or not one hundred years from now Marion will have forgotten that she was, in 1921, the center of the nation's interest, and will have allowed her now most honored residence to be neglected and run down. This will be the case if Marion follows the example of her neighbor, Delaware. It seems to us that since this is the cen- tennial anniversary of the birth of Rutherford Birch- ard Hayes, the citizens of Delaware should begin to recognize that his birthplace is here, and in a very deplorable condition. Surely all right think- ing people will realize that this fact does not re- flect credit on our town. Patriotism to our nation as well as to our city demands that we remedy this condition. Are the pupils of Delaware High School going to allow our old time rivals to get ahead of us even in showing respect to a native President? We think that our point will be appreciated if we conclude this article by the familiar phrase, "Yea Delaware! Beat Marion"! Tennis Courst for the High School Tennis, one of the most interesting games in the great field of athletics, is becoming more and more popular in this country. Courts are being construct- ed in every vacant lot and old garden patch. There are many things to recommend this game; one is that anyone can play it. It does not take a robust person; neither does it take a tall one, as do other sports. Tennis is a game every student should play for mental reasons as well as physical.

Description An account of the resource [page 38] [corresponds to page 36 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin mind is needed to understand and play the game well. To be a good player one must be accurate and must use very good judgment at all times. Physically, it gives every muscle its proper exercise. It occasions no overdoing, strained muscles or brok- en bones as do almost all other athletics. An acci- dent can be blamed on no one but the player him- self. What would be better for the high school than good tennis courts? The school has access to a very good football field and a fine basketball court; and now that tennis is becoming so popular, why not have courts? The question, that might enter one's mind, where can ground be found on which to construct them? can be thrown aside. The high school owns a lot back of the building which is large enough for two good courts, and is in a fine location. What good is that idle ground doing for us? Why not have it changed into something use- ful and helpful to the student? A Young Genius An event took place on the evening of May 2 which once more justifies Delaware High's reputation for contributing to the world and which gives the class of '23 ample cause to be very proud of a fellow mem- ber. This event was the piano recital given by Dale Bartholomew at Sanborn Hall. From the first ex- quisite note until the last, the large audience was literally held spellbound. Dale conducted himself like a true virtuoso, with not a trace of self-con- sciousness in his manner, holding the instrument al- ways under perfect control. Beginning with Rach- maninoff's "Prelude in G Minor," he played selec- tions from Chopin, Schumann, Rubenstein, Liszt, and Grieg. His fingers touched the keys lightly or firmly as his interpretation of the selections varied, but there was always that fullness and delicacy of tone which mark the true artist. His technique throughout was practically faultless. There were present at the concert several in- structors in music of the college and they were equally well pleased with the success and well-de- served praise of the young musician. We of Delaware High School appreciate more than ever before Dale's talent and ability and his ser- vices in the Choral Class and Glee Club. He is un- doubtedly destined for the highest success in the musical world, and he has the very best wishes of both the faculty and the pupils of Delaware High School for the coming years. Honor Member of Class of '22 It is not very often in a life time that one finds within his own circle of acquaintances a young ge- nius so brilliant that he is recognized by those ex- perienced in his art, and is given an opportunity for a swift and remarkable career. This was the reali- zation to which the students of Delaware High School awoke when Bernard Schweitzer appeared suddenly as one of the brightest and most promis- ing among the young explorers in the realm of mu- sic. The student body has twice had the opportun- ity of hearing Bernard sing since he took up his study in Chicago, and has been delighted to mark his progress. We are very proud of him because he is one of our number, and because he received part of his training, and, we hope, a great deal of his inspiration while under the influence of our own school. Had Bernard remained longer with us, he would have graduated with this year's class. After hearing him render most inspiringly the famous "Hosanna" anthem, the Holy Name Cathe- dral of Chicago succeeded in securing his services. To appreciate the honor implied in this, we must consider that the very greatest of singers have ac- cepted invitations to sing in this cathedral. So, fellow classmate, we wish you a realization of your greatest hopes. We also look forward to that day when we shall hear you in a greater hall than the chapel of D.H.S.

Description An account of the resource [page 40] [corresponds to page 38 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin A Fantasy Prone on the sun- warmed sand, just out of reach of the breakers, A Boy with a Suf- fering Heart lay thoughtfully gaz- ing upward. Sprinkling the stones with dew and filling the air Back of the first great dune in a cottage low in the valley, Sick, and dying with care, his mother lay stricken with fever; Hers was the grief of the world, the down-trodden world of the helpless. All night long he had watched, till his eyes grew heavy with vigil, And now, as at length she slept, he lay thinking and pond'ring and planning. Was there not some way he, though his years one might count on ten fingers, Might bring, in his own small way, glad joy to the heart of the sufferer? Coax long-vanished smiles to her lips, as his own smiles might seem in reflection? Wearied with sorrow and care, and lulled by the swish of the sea-surf, His thoughts turned to happier paths, and his eyes closed gently in slumber. Suddenly faint in his ear a weird cry roused him to action. "Look!" it cried, "Look, ye, lad, for magic abides in yon castle!" The Boy with the Suffering Heart first glanced, then gazed in amazement. Afar, where the dune had been a castle rose sheer to the heavens. Silver and gold were its walls, and its windows gleamed brighter than jewels. Its towers were wreathed in mist that sparkled like dew on the hawthorne. Nearer and nearer he drew. Urged on by a great fascination He mounted its Parian steps, and paused not, but en- tered its portals. Suddenly, born on the breeze, came the same weird voice from the ether. "Mortal, guard well thy tongue, for ne'er since the last king of Egypt Died by the hand of the dream folk, those guardians who watch o'er the castle For sland'ring the name of the wardens, has mortal e'er glimpsed this great vision. Thou of the Suffering Heart must cherish and honor the privilege. What thou wilt see beyond is not for the scorn of the rabble. Its sight must be earned by faith and kindness and thoughts of endearment." Urged by the same fascination, and quickened by glad expectation That some how in some strange way the dream folk would answer his problem, He raced down the long light hall till two doorways rose, thwarting his passage. One opened on sunlit halls where fountains played gayly and lightly, Sprinkling the stones with dew and fillin gthe air with sweet perfume. Round it the flowers sprang, holding their cups to its showers, Like a rare rug for the trees, which teemed with the sweetest of songsters. Rose and lily and fern played hide and seek with the thrushes. Gayly in and out, in the shade, 'mongst the birds and the flowers Dancing in gay attire were the mystical, care-free dream folk.

For as he gazed within, till his eyes grew used to the dead light He saw not a thing but space, as black as a cellar at midnight. Gradually came into view the skull of a man, with its jaw bone Cruelly broken across, and beside it a chest filled with treasure; Here hung a hang-man's rope still looped in the death-knot of slaughter; Here was a gibbet; beneath, the mouldering bones of its victims. Turning away in disgust, he stepped toward the doorway of dreamland.

He sank to the floor in his grief, and his sobs broke the silence of ages. "Why can't it all be like that, all beauty, and glory, and radiance?" An agonized sigh shook his frame, his heart was breaking with sorrow. Suddenly faint but clear, the weird voice, softened to music Fell on his heart like balm, then ceased he his weep- ing to listen. "Oh, Boy of the Suffering Heart, hearken to all that I tell you. You in your innocent grief, have stumbled on life's greatest lesson. The castle you now are within holds the secret of human endeavor; Yon rooms were the souls of men, some good, some teeming with evil. "Long ago in this hall, ere began the great cycle of ages, The wrong of the world was confined, till arose a great monster named Rumor Who broke through the heavy barred walls and freed from their bonds of confinement The spirits of evil and sin, who now roam the wide world at random. But alas, as he broke through the wall, a stone shak- en loose from its moorings Stopped up the door of gold, and blocked that pas- sage forever. Wearily watching and waiting, year after year with- out number, The guardian sprites of the hall have searched for a mortal, a human Who could roll the stone from the door and free all good from its burden. Thrice have they tried and failed, thrice turned anew to their mourning. "Now we have welcomed you with the hope which seems beyond hoping, That a Boy with a Suffering Heart, urged on by un- selfish emotions, Might say the potent word that would loose the stone from the portal. Speak the wish nearest your heart. I go, for I dare not stay longer." A cry of joy on his lips, the Boy, no longer dejected, Sprang like a dart to his feet--"Aid, help for my suffering mother!" A flash of light, a whirl, a sound of echoing music, A blurr of mingled hues as the dream folk rushed on toward the doorway. Blinded and dazed and stunned, the Boy fell tremb- ling, startled. The harsh stones turned to sand he was back again by the sea side. The breakers were loud and fierce, steadily rain- drops were falling. Stumbling and weak in his haste, the lad rushed on toward the cottage. The dream folk were free at last, but where, oh, where had they vanished? "Look," came the low weird voice, "Look to the west- ward and southward." He turned then stopped in amazement, a glad cry burst forth from his bosom, "Mother, oh, mother, look, the dream folk, high in the heavens!" High in the arch of ether, where the clouds were broken asunder, The sun shone through on the mist, and the air was tinted to purple, Azure and saffron and rose, with the green of wee leaves in the springtime. His mother turned on her couch, with the weary look of the dying, But as she looked at the tinted arch, her pain be came gladness, The gray lines left her face, she sank back pale and exhausted But now to grow stronger each hour, for a promise of good everlasting, A token of dream folk faith was this rainbow arch in the heavens. Prone on the sun warmed sand, just out of reach of the breakers, A Boy with a Happy Heart, lay thoughtfully gazing upward. Back of the first great dune, in a cottage low in the valley, Weak, but happy, and stronger each hour, his moth- er lay sleeping. The Boy with the Happy Heart as he lay there lulled by the sea surf, Freed from his heavy care, closed his eyes softly in slumber. Faint through his dreams, there came, the low weird tones of the dream folk, "Saved by his generous wish, we promise him peace everlasting." Ages have come and gone, but oft in the sky of a summer, After a heavy shower, comes the rainbow, the pledge of the dream folk. -CHARLOTTE RICE, '22. 39 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 41) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/6bc3ed7b96bcd4bf4baf7f5ad9684004.jpg 255dfbeb84f569bae351670c94743865 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 42] [corresponds to page 40 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin The Amateur Househusband Henry Obstinate, a father and husband, who be- came exasperated because Mrs. Minerva Obstinate put in a plea for a clothes-wringer and, having re- ceived it, untactfully sent in a similar plea for a washing-machine, quite boldly declared he could take care of the house as a recreation. Wise Mrs. Obstinate refrained from pressing her desire and Henry went to his club; but when he returned to his peaceful realm, he was informed by note that his practical wife thinking he needed a period of re- creation, had gone to her old home in order to per- mit him to enjoy the needed rest. She left the chil- dren, Mary and John, to keep him from getting lone- some during the many hours in which he would be unoccupied with household duties. Monday morning dawned radiant and calm, but Henry slept serenely on. At the late hour of eight, John and Mary anxiously arose and surveyed their audacious parent. Why hadnt he called them? They dressed for school with unusual hilarity. Presently, vociferous sounds issued from above. "Why hasn't Minerva called me?" shrieked Henry as he came panting down the stairs. Then he re- membered his spouse had departed for a time. Well, he would show "Min"! He commenced his "recrea- t'on" by laboriously trying to comb and braid Mary's hair. What a mess! How did "Min" do it? He final- ly disposed of that incident by leaving her hair un- braided and tying an awkward-looking bow around it. Much to his chagrin, he discovered that it was too late for the children to go to school. After one-half hour of swearing and wrestling he had three eggs fried, but Mary and John refused to eat theirs because he had stirred the fire with the egg-turner, then turned the eggs! In the midst of the confusion of the children's crying, the eggs pop- ping, and Henry hopping around with his hair in his eyes, at the same time nursing a burnt hand, the tele- phone rang. "Hello! Hello!! Hello!!!" shouted Henry. Slam! Went the receiver followed by a tor- rent of profane language. "It is ten o'clock and you haven't started the washing yet. 'Min' always had it done by nine o'clock," reminded Henry's conscience. He dutifully gathered up as many dirty clothes as he could find, promising himself he would wash the breakfast dishes with the dinner dishes. He had a vivid recol- lection of a boiler of water which he had been in the habit of putting on for "Min," so he put a boiler full of water on the stove and piled the clothes in. By the time this was accomplished it was time to get dinner in order to give the younger Obstinates something to eat before they started to school. With one hand burnt and his disposition badly injured, Henry rumaged through the cellar and pan- try in a frantic effort to find a cook-book and some- thing to cook. He found some canned goods from which he selected a can of peaches, a can of sweet- potatoes, a can of peas, and a can of salmon. As the "amateur househusband" began slashing reck- lessly into the top of a can, the can-opener undiplo- matically slipped, causing the wielder to gash his hand on the ragged edge of the lid. Howling in anguish, he bound up the cut and proceeded more slowly. Having completed his task, he called the children in to partake of the "tin" dinner. The peas were partially prepared but since the cook couldn't find the cook-book he was not to be censured if things weren't altogether edible. The remainder of the victuals was cold. The younger inmates disposed of, the washing was resumed. As Mr. Obstinate turned to the boil- ing clothes, he looked with awe upon the strangely colored water. He gingerly picked up a garment and after careful inspection recognized his ex-best white shirt, ex-best--for, alas--one sleeve was a dingy black and the front was an elegant mottled red. He limply stood gazing at his neighbor's beau- tiful white shirt, tauntingly waving on the line. Mystified, he hunted for the wash-board and tub; then he went to work. After hours of real labor at the wash-board, in which the only thing that was accomplished was the further disfigurement of his hands and what appeared like the last stages of lumbago in his back, he gave up in despair. He sat down, gazed from the best suit of clothes all wet and dabbed with flour, to his hands all red and blistered, then to the kitchen which looked as though a small tornado had just passed through it. As the victim was brooding over some of the evils in life, the lesser Obstinates trooped in. As usual, they were on the brink of starvation and since it was nearly five o'clock, supper loomed up before Henry's eyes. Supper is generally a soothing thought to most people, but to Henry it was a dancing figure dressed in red and possessing two extremely long, pointed horns which protruded from above either eye. Mary produced a cook-book and Henry donned the chef's cap once more, armed himself with spoons and flour, then proceeded to make biscuits. Now, the neighborhood owned in joint-partnership, three common black cats which had just discovered the Obstinate family's bowl of milk that Henry had so innocently placed on the porch to keep cool. 40 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 42) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/da2d71dfeae1e148a83fa6a6c5e0d166.jpg b0bd343d816db1ed5fb9476c8adc91ad Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Henry ran back into the kitchen--but, alas!--his culinary art, the biscuits, were perfect pictures of mud turtles huddled under their shells, and in fact they felt much the same too!

Sheer Luck Combs An Original Story of Deductive Reasoning By the Author THE MISSING SPARK PLUG Sheer Luck sat in his den deeply engaged in study and profound reflection. He had, just two days be- fore finished deducting the facts in the case of Elu- sive Killem, which on the previous day had led to the arrest of that gentlemen; and now he was try- ing to solve the problem of the capture of Slim Jim by the Bingville police force. The butler entered and handed him a card an- nouncing Miss Billionaires. "Show her in," said Sheer Luck. She entered, tall, stately, and handsome, wearing a dress of the latest production of the designer's art. "What's the trouble?" asked Sheer Luck Combs, unconcernedly. "May I speak confidentially?" asked the beautiful blond. "Sure." "Well, then, I have come to have you solve the intricate problem concerning the missing spark plug in my limousine. You know I had a car made to order with a peculiar spark plug, which cannot be duplicated. If you can keep a secret, I shall tell you one. The Count De von Marrymoney, of Bo- logne, and I were to elope in this very car, so it would be quite provoking to spoil all the romantic sensations by using any other now. My father does not favor my marriage with the count, but of course it would not be romantic if father and mother both agreed to the union." "I see, I see." "But about the spark plug," continued Miss Bil- lionaires, "I always carry that on the end of a gold chain about my neck so no one can drive the car but myself. The plug resembles an antique locket. At night I place it in a small vault which no one knows about except myself. It is in my own room and impossible to be seen, since it is so well con- cealed." "Well, then, you mean to say that it was stolen from your vault last night at twelve o'clock by a person who entered--you know not how--and van- ished even more mysteriously when you sat up in bed." "Wonderful! How did you know?" asked the amazed beauty. "Very simple. I just deducted it from your talk." "Then can you assist me in finding the valuable article?" "Certainly. It is this moment in your father's posession. He has it in his right-hand vest pocket." "But how do you know?" "Since you ask, I shall explain. Your father did not want you to marry the count?" "No." "He knew you were going to elope in your car, because you told your mother and she is a woman. Your father knew that the car had but one spark plug, and he also knew of the vault, because he saw you open it one night when you were unaware of his presence. Mr. Dexterous Sharp, the magician and pickpocket, as well as the contortionist and hypno- tist, wanted to earn two hundred and fifty dollars, so he burglarized your father's house--by his con- sent--and secured the article. It is now in your father's vest pocket, because most men carry valu- ables there, for a while at least." "A wonderful and amazing intellect!" said the swan-like creature. "But how can I secure the plug?" "Give Mr. Sharp five hundred to rob your dad." "Good! I'll do so immediately. But where can I find Mr. Sharp?" "Next room to the right. He's my partner." Thus Uncle Sam lost another billion heiress, but Sheer Luck Combs continues to deduce evidence from nothing, and has a world-wide fame. -EDNA WOOD, '24. 41 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 43) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/d3f869cbbf0aa52ab191cece5e65a3c3.jpg 60fcbf668f2c5458e149033ec8e6d719 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 44] [corresponds to page 42 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Joe Strikes for Liberty Not long ago, Mr. Ireland, of the Dispatch, took a trip into Kentucky. The Sunday after his return, the "Passing Show" was filled with cartoons of what he had seen there, and his comments upon them. Among them was a touching little illustration de- picting an old mountaineer climbing up the trail on horseback, while his better half labored along be- hind him on a mule, most dejectedly. It was evi- dently Mr. Ireland's purpose to illustrate the habit- ual position of a mountaineer's lady, and so far as I know, he is right in assuming that the greater por- tion of Kentucky women do shirk along behind their husbands; slaves, living only for their master's pleasure. But there is an exception. Indeed in the case of which I am about to speak, the accepted positions of husband and wife were just reversed. It seems that Joe and Lizzie, his wife, lived in hardworking comfort in a more or less spacious shack on the farm of a well-to-do mountaineer. Liz- zie worked hard, and Joe, spurred on by a stimulus the nature of which only husbands know, did like- wise. Joe's loftiest ambition was to sit around all day in the sun, bare as to feet and vacant as to mind, and with the assurance of three good meals a day and a soft bed at night, watch Lizzie hang out the clothes. Of these, the most longed for privilege and the one most improbable of fulfillment, was that of watching Lizzie hang out the clothes. For whatever part Joe may have had in the weekly rite of washing was emphatically not that of onlooker. In fact he was never idle; if Lizzie didn't want him to help her wash, she ordered him to mind the baby or stir the beans. And Joe, of course, had a man's aversion to all of these housewifely duties. Those who knew the state of affairs at the Tolliver home were fond of telling a story about poor Joe. They said that Mr. Warren, on whose farm Joe's shack stood, had once asked him to help with the hay. Joe, torn between a wholesome awe of his wife and a desire to do a real man's work with real men for the first time in his married life, stumbled and quavered, but finally managed to convey the idea that to pitch hay would be his dearest delight, but he "kinda thought Lizzie wuz washin' today; he didn't know ef she wuz er not, but he reckoned he'd better go ask her fore he decided." So ask her he did, only to find that Lizzie wanted to go to an all-day revival meeting and had decreed that Joe's place was in the home. Lizzie was not particularly diplomatic about it, and she did not realize that every road has a winding. Neither did she realize that Joe was aware of the fact that he was the laughing stock of the community; that he was tired of her ceaseless dominion; and that to his sluggish mind at last had come the realization that he could escape. Ignorant of all these things, how- ever, she went her pious way, never doubting Joe's fidelity. On her return, she found the shack emp- ty; even the baby was gone. Eventually the baby was found asleep by the creek her feet trailing in the water, and Lizzie's anxieties were stilled. Joe could look out for himself. She never thought of him until her beans got burnt from lack of the usual stirring, or on wash day. As for Joe, he was not far away. He had simply gone down the road and across the river to Blue Bonnet, where he got a position in the mines. The hours were short, the pay sufficient, and no one ques- tioned his right to chew his tobacco unceasingly or to sleep whenever he wanted to. He never thought of Lizzie except at meal time, for in spite of her shrewish tendencies, Lizzie was a good cook, and he had always been well fed. But the food now avail- able was not of the best, and no matter if he was plebian in most respects, Joe's stomach was aristo- cratic. Then, too, the work at the mines we begin- ning to pall upon him. Finally, like other great men of history, Joe was conquered by his appetite and he went home to his loving spouse. She greeted him stolidly, betraying no surprise or any other emotion, but Joe was used to that. If he had any qualms, one glance at the clothes-line was enough to dispel them. He said, "Liz, give yuh a dollar a week fer room 'n board." Liz's lips said nothing but her eyes did. In response, Joe drew out one of his dollars. He continued, "One dollar, three meals a day an' room. You 'n me be strangers to one 'nother." He meant by this that he did not intend to do the washing, but he was too delicate to say so. Lizzie agreed, and got her sister to come and pay her a visit. Joe got his three meals, but his room was the kitchen and his bed the floor, for the only other room besides the kitchen was occupied by Liz- zie, her sister, and the baby. In spite of this and a few like draw-backs, Joe was very well pleased, for in his role of stranger and roomer, he was never nagged at or made to stir the beans. But he reached the zenith of his glory when he was the joy of sitting on the grass 42 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 44) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/c6789ab39750f3aa89f52126ae16f032.jpg 43e28cdd2e24138bfdf2f24fbefc23ad Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

All went well for a few weeks, but the time came when the stock of dollars was exhausted. He knew that Lizzie's good food and shelter would be no long- er forthcoming without the weekly dollar. The cold weather, too, was coming on, and the need of shoes was beginning to be felt. Lizzie was adament in her refusal to get out his winter clothing. In her own words, "I ain't a-goin' to let no stranger war my husban's close." In despair, Joe departed once more for the mines, only to find that they were closed. There was no work in the town; Blue Bonnet had settled into its customary winter stupor. Luck was against him wherever he turned. He felt in his ragged pocket for his old standby, his "plug o' tobaccy," and brought his hand out, empty save for one lonely nickel. With it he could have invested in more tobacco but he knew that if he did, the luxury of riding across the river in "the boat" would never be his, for Ma McCoy, the slatternly woman who lived on the opposite bank and whose leaky, home-made skiff was the only ferry, was exacting in her demands for payment. He renounc- ed his longed-for "chaw," signalled to her, and she rowed across and pulled up on the shore. He paid no attention to her shrill command to "stan' up in th' middle, 'n mebbe she'll swarp off'n th' bank better." He was engrossed in his thoughts. All too quickly the skiff reached the opposite shore, his last nickel was in Ma's grimy fist, and he was plodding up the mountain road wondering where his next meal was to come from and where he would sleep that night. To worry was foreign to his nature; he believed, without reasoning, that when the time came a course would open. He became colder and more miserable every min- ute, but at last he approached the shack and turned into the yard. As he went into the kitchen he stum- bled over the baby playing in the dirt in the door- way. Picking her up, he awkwardly soothed her cries and went into the kitchen. A familiar odor greeted his nostrils, a familiar scene, his eyes. Lizzie was washing. He was cold; he was hungry. The room was warm and a kettle of beans boiled on the stove. He looked out the door; the wind was rising and the sky was gray with cold. Joe turned again to the kitchen and, without a word, lifted a tub of dirty clothes to the floor and stepped into it, his feet slopping the warm water and stamping the dirt from the clothes in the fashion approved by the moun- taineer housewives. His zeal was pathetic. Lizzie said nothing; she understood. She disap- peared and presently returned with a pair of clumsy boots and thick sox. "Gittin' cold," she remarked. "Better put on them boots whin yuh git through. Stir th' beans." -ANNE BOOTON, '22 One Saturday in the Ten Cent Store There was a time when the word "clerk" brought to my mind the picture of an untidy, uneducated, and unrefined young woman. However, I have since changed my views and now I realize that, although she may not be a college graduate, the same young lady is clean and intelligent, and often more sens- ible than many of the girls who are graduated from the best university. To be sure much more is demanded of the shop girl today: if she be lacking in intelligence and quick-witted mastery of a situation, she will soon lose her place; she must be able to meet all kinds of people pleasantly; she must be able to understand those who cannot or do not speak clearly; she must be able to make out the numerous reports and lists required by the management; she must be accurate in everything, particularly in accounting for stock, in ringing money in the register, and in making change, for, if she is not accurate, she will probably get such a tongue-lashing from some irate customer that she will flinch for a week. The clerk must always be prompt in the morning and at noon, prompt to wait upon the people and to answer their questions, which are often very fool- ish. She must always have a smile, no matter what may be hidden back of it; she must be polite under all circumstances--a duty which is, I think, the most difficult, because it is human nature to want to speak for one's self, especially if wrongly accused. But the girl behind the counter must smother her feel- ings and calmly listen to anything the customer wishes to say. She must never show impatience even though a lady should take all day to decide whether she wishes a five or a ten-cent pair of shoe 43 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 45) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/f044419dec24fb028c179da4bae13250.jpg fd7b68c823249532ca222d704193238f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

On the other hand the clerk has many pleasures, and enjoys many good times with the other girls. Then, too, there is the enjoyment of work well done and a day well spent. To the school girl, working in the store one day a week is all pleasure, for she does not have any of the hardwork to do; and, be- sides the rest from the monotony of school routine, she has an easy way of getting spending money without having to ask father each time. Furthermore, such work gives one an excellent chance to study kinds of people and characters. There is the flashily dressed young girl who buys a ten-cent box of rouge and takes from her purse a ten-dollar bill with which to pay; and the aristo- cratic lady who looks at all the perfumes and asks, "Is this all the kind of perfume you've got?" In contrast to these types is the poor mother, who looks as if she had not as much as seen a new dress since her wedding day, with a half dozen ragged little chil- dren about her. She has, perhaps, fifty cents in her worn pocket-book, which she spends upon cheap toys and candy for her young brood. There are two types of college girls, the snob and the non-snob. The non-snob wears a pleasing smile and treats the clerk as an equal, while the snob sails along with a high-and-mighty air seeming to think the clerk was made to serve her; and the un- usual part of it is that most often the snob is unbe- comingly dressed, and looks as if she might have a mother at home who, wrinkled and careworn, wash- es in order to earn money enough to give her daugh- ter a good education. Following this "malforma- tion," in a class by herself, is the young business girl who is much more considerate of others and who is a delight to wait upon; she has had some experience with people and knows how the clerk feels. Then comes the young married man whose wife has sent him for a hair net. He doesn't know what color, whether it should be single or double meshed, with or without elastic,--or just a hair net. If she wants some crochet-cotton, the young husband, pick- ing up a spool of black darning cotton, will inquire, "Is this the only color crochet thread you have?" And so on through the whole list of patrons. From the richest to the poorest, from the largest to the smallest, one can tell who and what they are by the way they walk, talk, and act. Although there are many trying incidents, the funny ones are by far the more numerous, and the experience is worth while to any girl, for it helps to broaden her views and make her more thoughtful of others. -ALICE RUSH, '23. The Poet's Belief The realm in which the poet-soul dwells is un- doubtedly a far-away world to the ordinary man. The spirit of poetry bursts forth from a heart,--not from a mind,--a heart that is overflowing with the deepest conceivable passions. An understanding of and a sympathy for the feelings of his fellowmen is a great essential to the true poet, for the readers of his works look not only for pleasure and enjoy- ment from his pen, but rather for a helpful, an up- lifting thought that will duly pay them for the time they spend with him. Many have written jingles, love songs, and dra- matic narrative poems, which have gained much ap- plause; but would these alone suffice if we could not learn to know the poet by the expression of his beliefs? If there be poetry in him, his whole soul summons this expression, whereby we come to know him, and if he can supply us with that uplift- ing, that moving quality for which we have searched, does it not seem that he is near and in fond company with the living God of Wisdom? But what are we to say of two who are recognized as being among the world's best producers of verse, --Homer and Virgil? Their seemingly immortal works bespeak the fact that they must have a god--that is, a source of inspiration, hope, and higher ideals; but was this the Heavenly Father? We have proof, too, that Virgil's belief lay not in one god, but in many gods, not all of whom were faultless. However, the lack of consciousness of divine sym- pathy upon the part of these early composers who had not yet the witness of Christ, forbids the inter- pretation of their real personalities. In the realm of superstition they are lost, and the valuable and interesting material left us by them leaves us with an inexpressible coldness. What a different effect is produced by the cherish- ed memorials of those others who felt the divine touch! How many have been comforted by the soothing melody of the imperishable faith of Tenny- son! His lines "For so the whole round earth is every way Bound by gold chains about the feet of God" are the key to his immense chamber of understand- ing and sympathy. In the possession of these tal- ents, our "Idyll" poet stands not alone, for by his side marches an army of trustful servants, the man- ifestation of whose beliefs in the All-Powerful One is inestimable.

A review of the lives of others skilled in the poet- ical art would serve as just examples of the fact that, although undoubtedly they put their faith in some unknown power, this was not always the God of Love. These poems which possess a tendency to draw the soul toward the ethereal realms are the most moving and eternal of these gifts. Those artists whose pens produce these works are, perhaps, God's best instruments for leading the world to Him. Think of the tear-drops and smiles of rejoicing that are prompted by the Psalms and Hymns of those who know Him. And, after all, are not these mere- ly an expression of man's greatest passion, Love? -DOROTHY BARRETT, '22. Lest We Forget Last December Delaware High suffered the loss of one of its best known students when George Noble answered his final summons. He was a mem- ber of '24, loyal and active in every phase of school life. We shall always remember him for his win- ning ways, his manly behavior, and his splendid sense of good fellowship which endeared him to us all. Until the very last, he never gave up the hope that he would be with us again, that he would once more share our good times in D.H.S. We cannot help but feel that his spirit is even now with us in- spiring us to higher endeavor. When we think of the untold agony George went through during the long months of his illness, it seems that, to him, death must have been a God- send. Even when he had reached the valley and only awaited the time when he would solve the mys- teries of the great beyond, he had a kind word and a smile for his friends. It seems that nothing more significant could express his wonderful courage than these few lines: "It's easy enough to be cheerful When life flows along like a song, But the man worth while Is the man with a smile, When everything goes dead wrong." Certainly we who found such a true pal in George can look forward to the time when, after life's for- tunes and misfortunes are set aside, we shall find him awaiting his friends. -BEVERLY KELLEY, '24. Autumn Autumn's train comes dancing, whirling, O'er the summer's sun-baked land, Like a gala-day procession, Like a pageant's motley band. Here a dash of red and yellow; There of purple; yonder, green; Peasant woman's broidered kerchief; Spanish dancer; golden sheen Mingled with rich, royal purple, Truly worthy of a queen. Lasts it all but for a moment; Fleet the vision fades away, Yields its place in turn to Winter, Winter, cold, and drear, and gray. -CHARLOTTE RICE, '22. LaJoie One fleeting glimpse! Far in the billowy clouds The azure tips of my Blue Bird I see. Alas! He, too has gone. But no! Just overhead he turns And darts straight down to me. I close my eyes. I dare not look Upon that joyous symbol. A fluttering faint! And then a rush of azure tips Have brushed my cheek in passing And left me Youth, and Love, And best of all, a Happiness Eternal. -ADELINE WELCH, '22. 45 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 47) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/1f0bde1fd3ad494fa18b263cdc73480a.jpg 79f4df49b45629f58dd83d96ef95112c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Then, out on the ripples, the round-running ripples, The breeze heard the lily's soft voice, as she said, "Oh go to the babies, the bad, bouncing babies, Whose mammas can't soothe them and put them to bed To fat, funny babies, and round, rolly babies, Their little hands clapping, their eyes all aglow; To sad, sighing babies, and wee, wailing babies, Their little lips trembling in wavering woe. One dear little baby, a week, woeful baby, Has found a cool bed under starlight and trees. Oh, go to the mother, the wan, weeping mother, And give her our blessing, sweet, soft, summer breeze; Go carry my perfume, my light, lily perfume, (And mingle the cool of your breath as you blow) To all of the babies, the world-weary babies, Whose little lives long for the summer to go.

Cuban Dawn I came on watch at midnight, and although the day had been intently hot, the off-sea breeze blow- ing over the deck of the ship had cooled things won- derfully, and now at four o'clock it was delightfully refreshing and without the customary sultriness that gives one that languid sort of feeling that is always felt near Cuba. The breeze which had been blowing practically all night had worn itself out, and in that calm grayness just before the dawn, the ocean as- sumed a mirrored smoothness in its very stillness. There was not a sound save that of my own foot- steps as I walked up and down the deck. It was yet but a short hour till dawn, and a creeping sense of oncoming light added to the breathless intensity, an intensity like that felt by the soldier at the zero hour of a charge. In the magical shifting of the shadows, there was seen, but a few feet above the horizon, a bank of clouds, the under line of which seemed to rest paral- lel with the ocean, the upper a jagged line, like the blade of a giant saw, the whole forming a sort of sensitive screen about the lower edge of the eastern sky. Gradually the dull grayness became transfused with a gorgeous royal purple, lined with a delicate pink; then as the sun rose slowly through its heaven- ly path, it changed in an instant the azure of the ocean to a perfect sea of gold, flooding the world, it seemed, with a Midas-like splendor. An artist would never dare attempt to paint a picture like that, for its rich and mellow beauty in unbelievable unless one can see it in its natural grandeur. But the scene changed: the sun was lifted behind the screen and the sea of gold melted and resumed its former serene azure with but a trace of gold. Again a new scene was created before me. The sun, now risen beyond the screen, smothered the ocean in a dazzling brilliant pink, with still a touch of gold intermingling with that rich blue seen only in a southern sky; a very riot of colors one would say, yet softened and subdued like the mellow beauty of a rose. I turned from the ocean view, and looked but a short distance to the entrance of Santiago Bay, with Morro Castle in ruins standing as a reminder of its old guardianship over the harbor. The soft gray of the Castle stood out from the background of the low white buildings on the slope of the hills beyond. The trees, the bushes, the grass, the very hills them- selves seemed green--a deep, rich, emerald green that brought out the beauty and brilliance of the buildings like the setting of a diamond. The ship's bell struck five. What! An hour wast- ed in merely looking at the scenery Wasted? Ah, no; for these scenes have left a picture, nay, a vision, too beautiful to be real,--a scene I shall never forget. WILLIAM E.

Description An account of the resource [page 51] [corresponds to page 49 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin A Diplomatic Romance Dear Dad: Arrived O.K. this A.M. and Aunt Ella was at the train to meet me. She is just fine and sends love. We are set for a "tea" this afternoon. I suppose it will be a bore, women sit in one corner and talk about their best friends while the men try to look interested. Oh yes! there is a special feature for this afternoon. I am to meet Count de Preles. He is representing the French Government here unoffi- cially. Thrills! Thrills! Thrills! Well, dear, I will write you all about it tomorrow as we are going to the opera tonight. With lots of love, MADGE. Dearest Pater: (That's Latin, Daddy). Well, I met the Count de Preles. He is the most insipid looking mortal, but to give him credit he is very good looking, although his clothes fit so precisely, his hair always looks just so, and his mustache is also scrupulous. I'll bet that he couldn't do a good day's work and I don't suppose he ever saw a gymnasium unless it was to take a perfumed shower bath. He is quite attentive and Aunt Ella is charmed with him. I suppose when your husband is in the president's cabinet, you have to be nice to foreigners, though, don't you? Well, I am going to play golf with the Count-No- Account today. Love, MADGE. Dearest Daddy: How are you? I am just fine! I'm so excited! I have scented a mystery. No, it isn't from a dime novel either. You know that there have been some royal Russian jewels sold to the French government. They were stolen and people believe some one brought them to this country. Dad, I think the Count knows something about it. You see the man who stole them, also stole the credentials of a French diplomat. They were not marked except only one of many so they couldn't be traced. No one knows why the Count is here. He doesn't do anything much but play golf, but I've caught him looking around at receptions as if he was afraid of being watched. I'm going to cultivate his friend- ship and see if I can't help in locating the jewels, as Uncle Ralph says that it is very urgent that they find them. Yours, MADGE. Dearest: The plot thickens. Last night we had a dance. I went with the Count, and, Dad I caught him--not with the jewels--but he was talking to the butler givign him orders. I listened and heard him say, "We'll go slowly; we can't risk discovery!" When I coughed and stepped out, he acted as if he had just asked the butler for his hat. He is clever. Then on our way home, we went for a long ride. He has a marvelous voice and is remarkably fond of telling stories and also of his many travels. Tru- ly, he is an exceptional man, but he can't fool me; he is a crook and I am going to catch him. I'm so sleepy. Good-night, MADGE. Dear Daddy: I'm so thrilled. When we were playing golf yes- terday, an aeroplane fell down right in front of us. The motor had gone dead and of course the plane crashed to the ground but fortunately the man was not hurt. He is very handsome and it turned out to be Jack Langley. He is just an ace from the war who is working on an aeroplane invention. He's very gentlemanly and Aunt Ella invited him up to- morrow. The Count stiffened and looked like a thunder cloud when he saw who the pilot was. I don't know what was the matter, whether it was be- cause he didn't like the aviator or not. Will tell you tomorrow. MADGE. Dear Dad: I've so much to tell you. I was out for a yacht party yesterday with Jack. The Count was invited, but he did not come. I wonder why? He seems to like me, but yet he is so indifferent--not that I care, except to catch him with the jewels. Anyway Jack told me yesterday that he was a French secret service man. He used to know the Count in Paris. He said Don wasn't a Count then at all, and also said that he (Jack) was over here to trace the jewels and catch the thief. I told him my suspicions of the Count, and he is going to watch him. He said he would let me help him if anything new came up. He is very nice and so attractive. I will write again soon. Love, MADGE. Dearest Pere: That is not a new kind of fruit--that is the French word for "Dad." It has been over a week since I've written any- thing but telegrams. I was so glad when I got your night letter but you shouldn't say so much when you pay by the word. I will be a miser before very long if I keep on getting economical. Things are going slowly. There is something do- ing every minute but I haven't found the jewels yet. 49 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 51) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/2333665a59d29ca87d1b21b040f9d618.jpg 5340a78a3cd3f35ea3c7e4944e03b42c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 52] [corresponds to page 50 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin The Count has been out of town for a week and if it wasn't so absurd, I'd think that I missed him. He is so insipid, and as I have found him out, he is a crook. Jack says he hopes to have him cornered in a week. I am so excited. Yours in suspense, MADGE. Dear Daddy: I just happened to think of what Grandma used to call you. Do you remember? Well! it was Jum- bo. She said she called you that because you liked peanuts so well. Don got back last week. He is the Count, as you already know. I'm letting him see me lots because I want to find out all I can for Jack. It doesn't seem to be working very well. He's charming until I talk about the jewels and then he immediately be- gins conversing on another subject, although I'm going to see if he will tell me. Will write later. Love, MADGE. Daddy Dear: I'm so unhappy. Today Jack told me to keep Don out until he had a chance to search his bags. I took him out into the garden and it was certainly a won- derful night. Don seemed terribly worried about something, so I asked him what the matter was. For just a minute he forgot himself and started to tell me but immediately put on his mask and went back into the house. Daddy, I know he was going to tell me that he liked me just a little. I read it in his eyes and the better point is that I want him to love me. I have only known him a month, yet I'm desperately near loving him--an effeminate crook. Love, YOUR HEART-BROKEN MADGE. P.S. There is something that seems strangely familiar about Don's eyes. Dear Dad: I'm so excited. It is all over--the mystery I mean. I will try to tell you just how it happened. Wed- nesday night, Jack didn't get all through searching Don's room so he told me to keep him out again last night. We went out in the park. I guess I do be- lieve in Romancing and Fate, after all, Dad, because a man attacked Don in the wooded part of the park. Did I tell you he was effeminate? You should have seen him put that man down. Jack Dempsey better look out for his title. Don tied the man's hand with a handkerchief and made him walk into the keeper's lodge, that happened to be near, and locked him in. When he came back to me I was ready to faint. I knew then more than anything else that he was safe so I just started to cry. (No! I'm not ashamed of myself because I couldn't help it). Then Don told me that he loved me but couldn't tell me anything about himself. He asked me if I could trust him. Somehow I knew then, that he was all right. I told him about Jack. He turned as white as a sheet and he asked me if I was still his brave little woman. As if I wouldn't pick sponges off the ocean's bottom after he had said that. To make a long story short. He gave me a note to take to police headquarters as fast as I could drive his car--and that was rather hurriedly. When I gave it to the chief he called his squad together and went out to the house. You should have been here then, Dad, it was great. They were all stationed at different places but the chief and he went in the house with me on his trail as close as Eliza's bloodhounds. The very first thing we saw was Don with Jack tied to a chair looking into a revolver. Then they blew a whistle and the men outside brought in three more. Dad, what do you think? Jack is the thief himself and Don caught him. They made me go to bed immediately because it was late and I was so excited. Anyway, I saw them take Jack and his confederates to jail. Don is going to tell me all about it tomorrow. I'm glad I trusted him. Your sleepy but happy MADGE. P.S. The mustache is false. Dear Dad: It's a lovely morning. I'm ready to go to lunch but it isn't quite time so I will tell you all about the mystery. Jack is an ex-convict from France. A Russian hired him to steal the jewels and he was to meet him here with them. His plane crashed and gave him an entrance into society with a little mystery to hide his real mission. Don is an American Secret Service officer who was put on the case by the French and American Gov- ernments. He knew who Jack was but was waiting to get him with his superior and his jewels. He had proof that Jack had the jewels and that is what Jack wanted in Don's room. They have Jack, the man who hired him, the proof, and also the jewels. Don has had a great raise and much honor. I'm so proud of him. Remember I said his eyes were familiar? Dad, do you remember the Montagnes that lived on the next ranch to us in Texas? The boy that I played with until I went East to school? That boy is Don. His real name is Donald Montagne. And, Dad, can't you leave Wall Street long enough to come out next week-end? Don will want to ask you something, although I don't know what it is. Yours blissfully, MADGE. --HELEN HITESHEW, '22. 50 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 52) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/2f6be5bbba98060b48702032940bf445.jpg bd2c3043582d2c9d5f2ddb8e6df00717 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 53] [corresponds to page 51 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Paula Last summer I had my first glimpse of community life, and I found it quite enlightening. I was at a camp in Vermont at the time, where were gathered girls of all types and descriptions, from every part of the United States. There was the petted mother's darling who was so trying just about bed-time when she was in the habit of being rocked to sleep. There were tomboy terrors and the peevish, ill-tempered ones, with a liberal sprinkling of winsome, happy- hearted little lassies who were like lumps of sugar in sour apple-sauce--quite a relief. And last, there was Paula. Paula was a wee mite of a seven-year-old with a large imagination, which was partly a gift of nature and partly the result of many hours spent listening to stories or pouring over volumes of fairy tales and mythes. This imagination, however, was of an airy nature which held no room for material things, and which, if she had been older, would have gained for her the epithet of dreamer. Her very expression was unpre-possessing at the outset. She was in the habit of contorting her small, deep-set eyes and full wide mouth into the most monkey-like expres- sions that I have ever beheld on a human counten- ance. Moreover, in her dress, she was the constern- ation of those who had her in charge. Her stock- ings were continually coming down; her middy was invariably unpinned at the throat; while her tie was often missing altogether; there seemed to be no means in the whole camp by which her bloomers could be kept above her knees; in short, Paula was not one to be bothered by her appearance. Alien as it may appear to this utter disregard of neatness, the child had a passion for dressing up, and "make believe" was a favorite pastime which whiled away not only much of her play time, but even much of the time when she was apparently en- gaged in other occupations. From remembered tales, still fresh in mind, or by her art of mental pictur- ing, she could at any moment evoke characters or situations to suit her taste. At dinner one noon she seemed absorbed in her own thoughts for fully fifteen minutes. Suddenly she broke her silence with, "O, Mrs. Blackburn, won't you please put on my shoes, I've been wading long enough, I think." Mrs. Blackburn, by this time somewhat accus- tomed to Paula's eccentricities, did as she was re- quested, meanwhile questioning the child about her queer statement. It seems she had tired of the table conversation, and to while away the time had imag- ined herself in wading in a "silvery brook that sparkled on the pebbles," to use her own words. She continued, "Mother lets me wade if I take off my shoes." It was one of these flights of imagination that insured and strengthened a warm friendship be- tween the child and me. One evening shortly be- fore taps I ascended the hill just behind our shack, intending to lie in the hammock and read until dark. On reaching the summit my attention was called by Paula's tentmates who came scrambling up the hill in their pajamas crying at the top of their voices: "O, Miss R--, do come down and tell Paula there isn't a ghost in the tent." Upon going down to investigate, I found that Paula's tent councillor had been detained and the child was possessed with the idea that there was a ghost in the tent, nearer which she refused to come than a tree perhaps twenty-five feet away. From that outpost of safety, she would make sudden dash- es back into the woods. On one of her frightened flights, I caught her and managed to keep her still. I hoped to divert her mind by asking what she liked to do. "Well," she said. "I like to read best." "What kind of books do you like " I suggested. "O, those about fairy people and goblins and ghosts and animals and--things." The last men- tioned was added rather absently. For some mo- ments she lay back in my arms silently thinking. Then she broke out, "Happy (that was what the children called their councillor) tells us lovely ghost stories. Will you tell us one?" Seizing my chance, I answered: "Paula, I'll tell you a story if you will promise to go back in your tent and go to bed." Much to my surprise she acquiesed. The other children followed a little behind, unwilling as yet to trust themselves nearer the tent. I thought the incident was closed, but no. Again Paula's voice held me. "There he is, I see him; he's caught behind the shelves. He can't get out." On being told that there was nothing there, she explained, "O yes he is. You can't see him though. He looks just like the tent flap. All I can see is his teeth. He can bite like anything, too. I knew a girl once who was bitten by a ghost. It hurt just awfully." Thinking she had gone far enough in her imagin- ings, and not daring to think what wild thing she would say next, I put her on her bed and told her to be quiet while I told her a story. When I finally left, she was just about asleep and I stole out with- out disturbing her. As I was thinking about the incident the next day, I could not help marveling at the wonderful talent 51 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 53) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/8c4c26eac1546c258303e1214c5fbc54.jpg ad081e9cf3d0422a62544f8126d154e5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

At the same time, a horror of what might become of the child if this talent were misued filled me with a sense of fore- boding. Many times have I pondered over this since I returned home, but the picture which oftenest comes to my mind is that of Paula, unconscious of self, listening to a story told at a camp-fire gather- ing, or herself acting out her own fanciful imag- inings. --CHARLOTTE RICE, '22. Home Seekers' Vision A burning summer sun had beaten down upon the prairie for days. Furnace-like, the south winds come racing out of the pulsing haze at the far hori- zon. The sky seemed of copper and the floor-like plain's once emerald disk was tinged by the heat with grayish brown. One object broke the monotony of the scene,--a white-covered wagon, its flapping canvas-top giving scant shelter to the emigrant and his wife crouch- ed within Their journey had been long,--seemingly endless to the fever-stricken woman. Suddenly the man looked up, startled. Their search for a home was over. "See!" he cried out in joy. They had come out on the edge of a wide-reaching valley. Lines of dense-leaved, billowy forest, bent and swayed in the gentle breeze. A lake with her and there a touch of foam to relieve the sparkling blue of the waves restlessly tossed and wrinkled its waters. Broad meadows suggesting clover and golden-rod were near by, and the waving of the grass was like that of the lake. Yonder, along the beach, the travelers caught a glimpse of dwellings --beautiful homes whose splendor seemed to dazzle their eyes. "See!" called out again the glad husband, his strong arm lifting the fainting wife that she might get a better view. The burdens of the past had been very great. In the fierce race of life they had been left far behind; but now the journey over, the thinly grassed prairie was nearly ended--the haven was in sight. They could almost taste the fruits of the trees and catch a scent of the clover. Hungrily, earnestly they feasted their eyes as they gazed through the opening in the flapping canvas. A passing cloud drifted suddenly before the sun. A cry of pain and disappointment surged to the wo- man's lips as she saw again a dreary length of plain whose level lines had so long fatigued her eyes. The torrid wind found not a leaf to stir. She fell back on her heated pillow. The mirage had lifted. The emigrant was alone on the prairie with his dead. --MILDRED McNETT, '23. Sentimental Value Everyone who is capable of deep feeling has in his possession some object which has no intrinsic value whatever but which he would not sell for any money. Or, perhaps the article which he prizes most is of no use to him although it would command a price if offered for sale. The things which bind this worthless object so closely to his life are the heart-strings themselves, which are caused to vi- brate with new life whenever the beloved article is presented to his sight. Perhaps it is a pressed flow- er, a handkerchief, an old school book, or a worn- out garment which never fails to revive the old sen- sations and dear memories that make life newer and happier. Perhaps we have never stopped to consider what a great factor sentiment, or even sentimentality, is in our lives. Some people are proud of the fact that they are called sentimental; others are ashamed of its. There is really no more excuse for either feeling than there is for being proud or ashamed of eating or breathing. Sentiment is a part of life itself. The past, present, and future are bound together by it; life is given unity by the sentimental regard we have for persons, circumstances, and things. Who among you has never, in the innocent idol- atry of youth, idealized some person who has after- wards proven entirely unworthy of your worship? But even after he has been shown to have feet of clay, will the sight of the athlete who was your idol to Apollo, the teacher whom you regarded as Wis- dom incarnate, the girl who seemed an unparalleled example of tenderness and unselfishness, or the min- ister who appeared as a paragon of all virtue, ever fail to revive old emotions and sobering memories which make your life better for having once cher- ished those ideals? Even though much bitterness was caused by the disillusionment you suffered, has not a new tenderness been added to your under- standing by the deep experience? To anyone, then, who has ever felt the thrill of a happy experience, the inspiration of a wonderful discovery, or the pain of a broken idol, sentimental value is an inseparable element of life; and all the harshness of struggle, the discouragement of disap- pointment and the unsympathetic attitudes of men cannot mar the memories his treasures of sentiment recall. --MIRIAM STAFFORD, '23. 52 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 54) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/dd790ef06ab7b1499bf86c52d4d495a0.jpg c3c49350cdc9d08b86136ad9d6e8b794 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It was to be a charity benefit; so the audience would be composed of two classes: one made up of those who were ever ready to make allowances for an inexperienced actor, while the other class was composed of those who sit stiffly in their places and seem to say, "Well, we're used to seeing all kinds of players and we know a good show from a bad one. We make no allowances and ex- pect the best for our money." Now this latter class was enough to discourage any young fellow; but had not Jack spent weeks in preparation? Had he not put special stress upon his "patter" in order to overcome all difficulties along that line and to render a performance with- out room for criticism? This tended to add encour- agement, but Jack could not help being a little ner- vous before the curtain went up. The orchestra was playing the opening number! In a moment he would face a sea of faces! The great curtain slowly ascended and with it rose his courage. He was, at once, the same cool-headed Jack Wellington who had practiced his entertain- ment without error. The orchestra broke into the closing strains of "The Stars and Stripes Forever" following the pro- duction of a large American flag on a rigid staff. The audience began to sit up and take notice. Per- haps, after all, this show might prove of interest. Jack launched into the performance with perfect ease. He pulled rabbits from unsuspecting gentle- men's coats, effected the production of bowls of gold- fish, caught live pigeons from the air, and caused cards to assume animated life. The vanishing of a young lady from a suspended cabinet, and her in- stantaneous appearance at the rear of one of the theater aisles brought thunders of applause. In fact, everything went along splendidly until, nearing the close of the first act, a spectator publicly challenged the wizard to hypnotize him. Now Jack Wellington might easily have eluded this challenge by saying that he had had no experience along mesmeristic lines and would be unable to do as the spectator requested, but Jack never thought of such an easy way out. The show had been run- ning so smoothly that he was literally taken off his feet by such a public challenge. He vaguely remem- bered promising to do as the man asked but suggest- ed postponing the demonstration until the next act, in which he was going to demonstrate mind-reading. This was agreeable to the spectator, who gloried in Jack's uneasiness. The remainder of Act One went off more or less mechanically, and when the curtain had descended, he was met by an excited brother and assistant. "You sure are in a deuce of a mess now, Jack! Why you've never had a lesson! You can't hypnotize anyone--" "Now just can that stuff, Tom," interrupted his brother, "I know it as well as you, but this is no time to lose our heads. Something's bound to turn up and, anyway, I may be able to bluff my way through. I think I know the principles." Saying this, Jack hurried away to his dressing room, leaving Tom to look after all preparations for the next act and supervise the change of scenes. In three minutes the apparatus of the preceding act was cleared away. A plain, yet attractive, set- ting stood in its place. This was to serve as scenery for the mind-reading demonstration--an act care- fully practiced and one which had promised success in the largest sense of the word, but which was now extremely doubtful in the hands of the nervous Jack. The young performer had decided to attempt the hypnotizing stunt first, leaving the remainder of the act until later, so that he might possibly overcome his inevitable failure with the more certain "Mir- acle Mind Reading," as it was advertised. The low, steady beat of a tom tom announced the beginning of the second act and was followed by the weird strains of "The Shiek." Jack, arrayed in an Arabic costume, stepped to the footlights as the curtain rose. His voice was clearly audible al- though he felt as if his heart were in his mouth. He requested the subject's presence on the stage and, when this request was complied with, began to walk the man backwards, going through meaning- less motions with his hands in front of the man's face. Every moment Jack felt worse. These impos- sible motions could not go on. Already the audience was sensing the bluff. Was so brilliant a perform- ance to be sacrificed now? It seemed inevitable. Suddenly the man's eyes closed! he sank in silence to the floor! Was this a dream? Jack Wellington was completely bewildered but knew that he must retain his composure, so he managed to turn and bow to the suprised audience. The curtain de- scended for a second, while the subject was removed. A very jubilant and self-satisfied Jack Wellington 53 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 55) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/72c621331da57f827f3156e91c5130d0.jpg 2301f632f813347e1ec55029e393aba8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

All through the performance the thought was uppermost in his mind that he had actu- ally put the man to sleep! Surely he must be gifted with unknown powers! At length, the final encore was over and Jack was met by enthusiastic friends. Nothing gave him more surprise than to learn that the man whom he had hypnotized had challenged him on a bet which the man had made with one of Jack's friends. This friend, as Tom remarked, must have had a tremen- dous amount of faith in Jack's ability. On the following morning, the young entertainer was awakened to see an account of his success in the "Tribune" staring him in the face. Tom held the paper before the approving eyes of his brother. "Jack," he said, "did you ever see a better write- up? Why, people all over the city know of this, and from what I can gather, the mesmeristic stunt got off best of anything!" "I'll agree with you," chimed in Jack, "Hot dog! I guess I'm some hypnotist! It's a mystery to me, though, why I never discovered my abilities before." A look of disapproval spread over Tom's face. "Look here, Jack, you hate yourself too doggoned much for any use, so I'm going to put you wise to something I'd intended to keep to myself. Wait a minute." With this, Tom left the room returning a moment later with a hammer. "Say, Jack, did you ever see this hammer before?" "Sure did," said his brother; "It's the one we used in setting up some of the stuff last evening." "Well," continued Tom, "do you recall the mo- ment last night when you accidentally backed your subject against the back-drop? This hammer," add- ed Tom, "has more magic in it than you think. Last evening, when I observed the outline of the honor- able gent's ivory dome against the back-drop, I just couldn't resist the temptation of giving him a light tap on the head. I really hadn't intended to tell you, but since you've assumed such a self-satisfied atti- tude over your apparent success--" "Tom," broke in a pride-shaken brother. "You're the kind of brother and assistant to have!" Now, although Jack Wellington's pride was wound- ed momentarily, he was not the sort of fellow to miss a good joke even at his own expense, so he smiled as he shook his younger brother's hand and said, "I may be able to pass as a fair magician, but as a hypnotist--well, as a hypnotist, I'm afraid I'd be obliged to resort to your more effective method of forceful magic." --BEVERLY KELLEY, '24. Short One "Don't you feel any better, Jane?" Cora Jennings said to her sister, who was still in bed at the late hour of eight on the day they had planned to leave for New York. "Oh, dear, don't worry, I'm sure I'll be all right; I'm just fighting off a miserable cold." "Don't you want something to eat? Maybe that would make you feel better." "Oh, I don't know what I want; I want to go. We have planned this little trip for so long, and now we even have our reservations, and I am going to spoil all our fun. Oh dear, it's such a splendid day, and besides we are almost packed." "Now look here, Jane, you just forget about spoil- ing our fun and get that ache out of your system. You lie right still there in bed and don't you move an inch out of it until I tell you you can. I'll finish doing what few things are to be done." She started to leave and Jane called to her, "Well, Cora, you might bring me a little bite to eat, if you're not going to let me get it for myself." Cora left the room, soon returning with a tray of steaming coffee and hot rolls. Scarcely had Jane finished her slight meal when some one called from the bottom of the stairs, "Jane! Cora!" Who could it be? Aunt Luella from Uniontown was the only one they knew of who always walked right in, but she always told them she was coming. Presently the call came up the stairway again, a lit- tle louder this time, "Jane! Cora!" "Oh, it's Mrs. B-- coming over to find out all she can to spread over the town," said Cora. She hurried to the top of the stairs and looked down. Sure enough it was she, standing in her neat morning dress, her inquisitive face turned upwards. "I just ran over to see if you really were going, and if there wasn't something I could do," she said. The truth of the matter, as the girls both knew, was that she just couldn't keep away; she wanted to know all their plans and didn't know how to find them out without having some excuse to come over; that done, perhaps she might finally question the information out of them if she managed well. Of course she came directly up the stairs, not waiting to be asked, and found Jane in bed. "Oh, you can't go, can you?" she said as she turn- ed to Cora--"Oh, what a shame! I suppose you had all your plans made?" She looked rather question- ingly at the girls, but Jane hearing this comforting query rolled over, heaving a faint sigh, and gave Cora a look not to tell. Cora understood. "I'll tell you what you ought to have," Mrs. B-- continued; "some whiskey mixed with a little hot 54 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 56) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/d643af13fe5b541c22439999fa25bdde.jpg 427c237665632c194836b4e319622849 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

That would fix you up in a jiffy. If you haven't any I'll go right home and get you some. I'll bring enough so that you'll have some to put in your suitcase, and I know if you take some now you'll be able to go." She said this and hurried home for the potion not waiting to see if they had any, for she was certain the Jenningses would hesitate a lit- tle at having such a thing around. She returned shortly with her bottle, and after seeing that Jane had taken a dose, went back home. After Mrs. B-- had left, Jane fell asleep and Cora finished packing, locked the windows, drew some of the shutters, and left only a few things undone that had to be finished at the last minute. When Jane awoke, she felt so much better that they decided to go. Finding no chance acquaintance on the train they sat and discussed every one back home from the grocery man to the president of the club, and when for the second time they had got back to Mrs. B-- Jane be- gan to feel bad again. Her berth was made up at once, and after much uneasiness she went to sleep only to be awakened by the man in the next berth, who was snoring most atrociously. She felt no bet- ter; in fact, she felt worse. After doing everything she could think of, Cora finally resorted to the whis- key. She went to the dressing room to prepare the draught, and on returning thought she knew her berth, but missed it by one. The occupant, who was none other than the afore- said snorer, was now deeply buried in peaceful slum- bers. Cora was standing over him, her hand on his pillow before she discovered he was not her sister; then in her fright and confusion she spilled the hot whiskey on him. He immediately awoke, and grab- bed her by the wrists, thinking she was trying to get his watch and money from under his pillow. Her eyes were burning with shame and horror, for you must remember she was very aristocratic and pre- cise, and was very much abashed by such a mishap; her face was flushed and her mind all in confusion, herself very nervous and quaky. To think that she, Cora Jennings, had mistaken the berth of a man un- known to her even by name for that of her sister. And too, how terrible! She had accidentally spilled the whiskey on him! What if it should be printed in the papers? What would her friends back home in Cincinnati think when they read it? Oh, horrors! While all this was nunning through her bemuddled brain, the man was sitting up in bed muttering in- coherent threats, and holding on to her wrists with such a grip that when she finally pulled herself away, they felt as if they had just been released from the stocks. She ran into her own berth breathless, pale, and excited. The patient, hearing the commo- tion and forgetting all about her pains, drew Cora up close to her, and in frantic whispers, amid chok- ing tears of shame and nervous laughs, tried to soothe her panicky sister. Meanwhile, the irate neighbor got out as fast as he could to the colored porter, who was sitting dozing in a chair at the rear of the sleeper. "There is some one in this car that is trying to rob me!" he exclaimed. "Oh, Boss, yo dunno wat yo' is talkin' about. They ain't no sech thing; for ef thar was Ah'd of seen 'em, Ah guess." "Well I guess if you swa some one standing next to your bed with her hand on your pillow ready to grab your watch from under it, you would know it." "Aw, shoot, Boss, yo' is drunk; that's what yo' is. Aw can smell it on yo' right now. Get yo' on back there to bed and stop makin' this here disturbance in this car, or I'll have yo' put off at the nex' stop. Yo' dunno wat yo' is sayin'. Youse drunk; that's wat yo' is. G'wan back to yo' berth." But the man was certain of what he said, and was certain, too, that he was not drunk; so stayed right where he was. The porter called the conductor, and explained the difficulty. The conductor was also convinced of the man's drunkenness, being able, like the porter, to smell the liquor on him. Then ensued the angry protestations of the out- raged traveling man. He was put off at the next stop, and to this day no one knows that he was not drunk, nor does any one know how Jane Jennings's threatening cold was cured with whiskey toddy. --FRANCES NAYLOR, '22. Danny Peters' Inheritance It was a sultry midsummer afternoon that settled itself upon the small group of tumble down shacks, graced by the presence of a combined general store and saloon, and endowed by its founders with the simple yet very appropriate cognomen of "Peace." This interesting little bozanza town, like so many others on the Western prairie, had gradually sprung up since the days of the forty-niners, until now it boasted of a population a little in excess of one hun- dred souls. On this particular afternoon the center of inter- est, as usual, revolved about the pouch of the gen- eral store, where several of the town characters and idlers sat about, some smoking, others dozing, and, when the spirit moved them, swapping experiences. At the time when our story opens, old Jerry Pratt, historian of the place, and an inveterate story tell- er, had just disposed of his companionable quid and was about to relate an anecdote bearing on his fa- 55 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 57) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/b3529688b968bf0110bfd6090e5db7ef.jpg 4c6b5c8b41e380bfdc9bbe6d45c95e82 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

"Did any of this bunch ever hear the straight of how Crazy Horse got his first taste o' fire water?" inquired the oldest inhabitant in a reminiscent mood. No one replied, and taking it for granted that he would not be interrupted, Jerry cleared his throat and began. Just at this point the conversation was interrupt- ed by a shot issuing from the saloon, and a moment later, out burst a roughly dressed individual with a white scar on his left cheek, who vaulted to his pony's back and was off. After him came Tim, the bartender, flourishing a cork-screw and shouting: "Sthop him, I say, he ain't paid for his drink. The blitherin' idot tried to puncture me, but thank Hiven, the lookin' glass is all that's busted." To catch the fellow then, however, was impossible. for the only witness to his hasty flight was a ris- ing pyramid of alkali dust far down the road. "I know that man," vouchsafed "Slim" Henderson, Deputy Sheriff. "Joe, don't you remember 'Stick- up' Jim Ramsey, who tried to lay a claim to Sam Peter's land by fake papers, about two years ago? The varmint skipped out 'a town quite sudden, af- ter a little tussle with Sam, but he swore revenge afore he pulled up stakes. I'd know that gent any- where by that pretty looking scar he carries around. Let me tell you there'll be trouble brewing afore long with such a reptile loose around here." Rising, "Slim" yawned, stretched himself, and drawled, "I'll just go over and have a little chat with the Sheriff about this. It won't do any harm to keep a watch out for this fellow's whereabouts." Jerry was first to speak after Henderson's depar- ture. "This here country sure is going to the dogs. Why a decent feller can't live secure any more." Suddenly a cloud of dust appeared on the road opposite that just taken by the man known familiar- ly as "Stickup." From the rapidity of approach, the onlookers conjectured that whoever it might be, had something of real importance on hand. The ob- scuring dust lifted, little by little, disclosing a horse, whose rider hung low over the saddle, urging the steed to greater effort. "I'm willin' to wager that's Danny, Sam Peters' boy. But what can he be in such a rush about?" queried "Spooks" Slade, district mail carrier. Their anxiety was soon set at rest, for Danny, a red-head- ed, capable looking boy of sixteen, who was an es- pecial favorite with all the residents of Peace, swung off his horse, and scarcely waiting to catch breath, exclaimed, "Dad's struck it rich at last, boys, after all these hard years of plugging. It's over along the foot of the Sawtooth somewhere; I didn't stop long enough to find out. And,--oh, yes, I near- ly forgot,--Dad wants a whole new prospecting out- fit, too." After such a long speech--for Danny--he lapsed into silence. Joe Cameron voiced the feelings of all when he said, "You bet we're all for you, son. I just felt in my bones that Sam was about due for a little change in luck." It did not take Danny long to secure the needed equipment, and with the well-wishes of all ringing in his ears, he set out for home. Just at dusk he rode in, and found Pedro Mendez, the Mexican hired man, standing ready to help him unload. The man's teeth shone white against a brown skin, as their eyes met, but there was little of humor in the smile. It was a smirk that lingered artificially. The fel- low was rather uncommunicative, but conveyed the information that Mr. Peters had been very restless during his absence, and had asked to see him as soon as he got back. As they were talking, the Sheriff, Mr. Long, af- fectionately known as "Shorty," rode up. He had just heard of Mr. Peter's good fortune, and know- ing that Danny's father must be anxious to stake his claim as soon as possible, had ridden up with the ownership papers. The conversation between the Sheriff and Sam Peters chiefly concerned the latter's new find, but when Long mentioned that Ramsey was in the neighborhood, Pedro's eyes lighted up with an unaccustomed glow. After supper, Mr. Peters drew a rough chart of the strike, explaining it all to Danny as he went along. If the two had only known they were being watched by Pedro, who had crept beneath the un- curtained kitchen window where he could distinctly hear all that was said, and occasionally risk a glance within, things might have been different. As it was they were so engrossed in study of the map, that Pedro found it easy to slip away, after he was sure that Mr. Peters had secured the chart in his boot for safekeeping. When once out of danger of discovery, Mendez slipped out behind the wagon shed, and whistled low three times. An answering whistle came back to him, and soon a figure appeared out of the darkness. "Is that you, 'Hoot'?" Pedro whispered. "Yep, and I reckon I'm on time too, Mex," said the man. "Anything new on tap?" "Si, Senor, and something important. Tell Gorgas that to-morrow, Mr. Peters rides past Black Hills. He goes to stake a new claim. He will be alone; wait your chance and then strike. Saavy? There will be a map of the strike hidden in his boot." "Looks like easy pickin', gringo. When will you join us?" asked "Hoot." "Pronto, hombre," replied Mendez. "How many are in the gang, senor?" 56 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 58) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/009364bbe0f96e70b9aa46c01a9fbc64.jpg 5d8d070592e227dd099b1eec9a653429 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Gorgas says that he won't have a whole raft of men around, like he did two years ago. 'Mem- ber how we all skidooed when Long caught us red handed a rustlin' them cattle. I ain't forgot that day yet. Well, I spose you're wantin' to know who's back. There's 'Dusty' Phillips and 'Smilin' Jack' Wilson, besides myself. Who d'ye think blew in last night? Why, Ramsey. He's been layin' low for a while, but he said it warn't in him to keep away with the old gang workin' again. I guess I' orter light out. Boss told me to hoof it right back. S'long." "Adios," was Pedro's rejoinder. He listened un- til he heard the dull thud of a horse's hoofs speed- ing off across the mesa. Then turning, he sought his lodgings above the stable to plan for the mor- row. Next morning at dawn, Mr. Peters set out on his way with a happy heart. Danny, for some unaccountable reason was ap- prehensive of his father's going, but he was almost afraid to voice his fear. The feeling remained up- permost in his mind all forenoon, although he tried in vain, by working, to drive it away. Soon after lunch he caught a glimpse of his fath- er's horse "Star," coming riderless over the plain at a terrific gallop, and his worst alarms were real- ized. Moreover, from the blood stains on the saddle, he knew there had been a fight, and that his father needed him badly. He attempted to find Mendez, but the Mexican had discreetly fled. Quickly mount- ing, the boy started out, scanning the sage brush dotted plan far ahead, for the sight which he so dreaded to see, yet momentarily expected. About mid afternoon near Coyote Pass, he found his father by the side of the road, nearly dead. A smile came over his face as Danny bent down over him and he said, "I knew you'd be here, but there's no use trying to help me, son, I'm done for. A pack of bunco men rode up at me out of that coulee, 'afore I could put up a scrap, and plugged me full of lead. It's the same bunch that hung out in these parts 'afore the Sheriff got busy. Jim Ramsey was one of 'em, son. He's always had it in for me since I gave him a lickin', a couple of years ago. Thank God, I didn't bring that chart along. It's home under the floor in the southwest corner of the kitchen. Don't let 'em get it, son." Mr. Peters could scarcely speak above a whisper, but it was clear that there was something else he wanted to say. "Danny, you've been a good boy, and I hope you'll be a better man than your dad has been. I always tried to do my duty by you, just like Mary made me promise, afore she died. My one possession is this claim, the only inheritance I can leave you. Take it, and may God protect you, my boy." He tried to speak again but the effort proved too much. Sam Peters had passed to the Great Beyond. Broken hearted, Danny dug a shallow grave, and placed a rude cross at the head; standing for a mo- mont, bareheaded, the forlorn figure of a boy who has just lost his best friend. Then mounting his horse, the grief-stricken lad turned homeward as the last rays of the setting sun gilded the far off jagged peaks of the Sawtooth; and one by one, the stars came out, casting their steely blue glitter over the earth. A day or so later Danny was seated on the top- most rail of the corral, wondering as to just what the future would bring, when suddenly his reverie was rudely cut short by the swish of a lariat whose horsehair noose settled about his shoulders, jerking him violently backwards. So stunned was he at this unexpected happening that he had no chance to resist, and when he could think clearly again he found himself bound, and being carried on the shoul- ders of two men. Where could they be taking him? Any doubts he had were quickly dispelled, for they soon arrived at an old, unused well, some dis- tance from the road. Setting down their burden, the men commenced to taunt Danny. At last wehn they tired of this, the two lowered him into the deep, dark pit, and then went on to rejoin their companions. Danny lay still for a long time, trying to make himself believe it was all a dream; but suddenly he realized the grim reality of it, and strove with all his might to tear the restraining cords loose. Then he attempted to shout, but soon saw the utter futil- ity of this, for he heard only the empty echoes. Hav- ing given up all hope of rescue, he lay quietly trying to rack his brains for a way of escape, when sud- denly in the little circle of light above, appeared one of the most welcome sights Danny had ever seen. It was the smiling, freckled face of "Spooks" Slade. "Hello there, Dan, I didn't dare come near till just now. Saw the two of 'em sneaking in behind ya, just as I got to the top of the hill, so I ducked into the brush, and watched proceedings. I'll say they took ya off the fence pretty neat. They've just flew the coop. Took your Dad's prospecting outfit, too. Just you lay still; I'll lower a rope down right off." As soon as Danny stood above ground again, they decided that no time must be lost in getting to Peace, where the Sheriff could be consulted. They arrived there in quick time, and Long pro- posed that the pursuit start as soon as possible. They agreed, and six trusty men having been chosen, 57 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 59) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/1454a1dcd83f51ade410492f16da1052.jpg f0dc57f15d7878e0efd825570b3ba8ea Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 60] [corresponds to page 58 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin the chase started in earnest. Although "Shorty" thought it unwise for Danny to go along, he finally gave in, when he realized that they boy was the only one who knew the trail the claim jumpers had tak- en, since Mendez had secured the map before start- ing. It was early evening when far ahead on a stretch of level mesa, the pursuers saw the glow of a camp fire. Assured that Gorgas's band had no intimation of their nearness,--for this country was one little traveled,--the men decided to camp right where they were, in a little valley. "Tiny" Maxwell, Long's right hand man, was sent out to reconnoitre. He returned with the news that there were only six men in Gorgas's gang, and as far as he could see, no guard had been posted, so secure did they feel. He also discerned that whiskey was being used freely by all. Immediately a council was called, and the plans for the capture of the unsuspecting bandits worked out. It was decided that early next morning, they should quietly surround the camp, while all were deep in a drunken sleep, and have them under ar- rest before they were fully awake. One man was then posted as guard, and the rest left. Danny, however, was very restless. Finally, unable to stand it any longer, he went to the Sheriff and told him he could not feel secure until he had set up the claim with his own hand. He was determined on starting out as soon as possible, and "Shorty" prom- ised him that as soon as the morning's work had been attended to, he would let him have two men to go along. Just as the first glimmer of dawn appeared, the posse swooped down upon the bandits, and with very little commotion, the entire gang was taken into custody. They proved to be some of the worst char- acters in the West, and the Sheriff was glad to have these very men, since they escaped him once be- fore. True to his promise, Long gave Danny two men to act as escort, and after several hours of hard rid- ing among the rocky foothills of the majestic, snow- covered Sawtooth range, guided by the boy who picked the trail by various landmarks, they ap- proached the narrow gulch in which the precious deposit was located. All of a sudden, they became aware of the marks of a horse's hoofs in the soft earth, and proceeding with infinite caution they came to the canyon's entrance, and found that some- one must be within, for the hot ashes of a fire lay scattered about. Resolved to take no changes, Danny then instruct- ed the two men to creep into the valley a little way, and spy, while he took a circuitous route, worming his way through the dry creek-bed, to a point where he could look out upon the floor of the gulch in all directions. What the lad saw, not fifteen feet away from him, was a horse tethered, and on the side of the gently sloping hill, a rude sign announced that this land was held by Miguel Gorgas. Just as he stood there watching, several shots rang out in quick succession, seeming to come from just around the bend. Realizing that his two compan- ions must have been discovered, he slipped down again, and watching his chance, came up noiseless- ly behind a natural parapet of boulders, where he intended to take a look around. Something seemed to warn him of impending danger, and there, sure enough, flattened against the stone breastwork lay a man, intent on drawing a bead on someone. So busy was he defending his position, that he failed to notice even Danny's sudden appearance. Quick- ly the fellow fired, and turned part way 'round to reload his gun. Danny shrank back, but not before he had seen the face of "Stickup" Ramsey. Crawl- iong up a little nearer, though still sufficiently hid- den, the boy was almost able to touch his man. It was now or never. Drawing his pistol from its hol- ster, he placed the cold steel muzzle resolutely against "Stickup's" neck, at the same time ordering him to surrender, in no uncertain terms. The ef- fect was instantaneous. Perhaps more from sur- prise than fear, the claim-jumper threw up his hands, and it was but a matter of minutes before the boy and his companions had him safely fastened up with a heavy pair of manacles. The task of setting up a fresh claim was soon ac- complished, and closely guarded, and the man whose name had been a cause of terror to all the plains was marched back in sullen submission. As for Danny, whose quick thinking had marked him as a hero, he was the center of all attention, and his entrance into Peace was rivalled only by that of a conquering warrior. For the satisfaction of those who must have every- thing explained to them, it might be added that Dan- ly's [sic] inheritance turned out to be one of the richest finds ever uncovered in that section of the West- ern country. --WILLIAM BROWN, '22. 58 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 60) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/7b4982db366b963262134f117971bc3d.jpg 73d5162b82038c968a61a7607e5d9f67 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 61] [corresponds to page 59 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin An Indian Sport In the summer of 1918 I happened to visit my uncle, who was a civil surgeon, then stationed at his camp at Atrauli, in the United Provinces of In- dia. English officials were very infrequent in that part of the country, and for this reason we became acquainted with the Rajah, the nominal ruler of that particular district. During the latter part of our stay, my uncle and I were invited to be guests of the dignitary at a celebration to be held for the purpose of raising money for the Red Cross,--a cel- ebration in which the main sport was to be wrest- ling. We accepted the invitation eagerly, for we had never before seen an Indian wrestling match. The Rajah called for us that afternoon at three. On arriving we found that there was a considerable crowd on the grounds; but everyone made way for us, and we were soon in our seats. The ground had been spaded for a space about twenty feet square, in which the wrestling matches were to take place. One side was reserved for His Highness and his retinue; the other three for the public, who throng- ed and crowded them. At about three-thirty the matches began. The first one was between two young men who were making their first appearance in the ring. As each stepped out, he was greeted with a cheer from the men of his village, who had come to see him wrestle. In an instant they were at it. Since neither of the wrestlers was very muscular, it was plain that both depended upon their speed. During the match, one old man in the front line sat wrapped in the contest. He was a man of about sixty, who was lame, and who might have been taken for the grand- father of one of the wrestlers. His lameness sug- gested the fact that he himself had probably wrestled at some time, and was now the young man's coach. When at last his pupil won the victory, he went wild with excitement, and the victor rushed to the side- lines and hugged and wept over his old grandfath- er, acting much as the Mt. Vernon players did after the Delaware game. He then shook hands with his grinning friends, and peeled off a rupee from each hand he shook, for such was the custom. The next match was between a well-built and in- telligent-looking farmer, and a harry, muscular man who might have claimed relationship to a chimpan- zee. After each was duly greeted, another match was on. From the beginning of this second match, it was apparent that it was a battle between Brains and Brawn; but when Brains got a good hold on Brawn, he was not strong enough to throw him, and Brawn eventually won by wearing out Brains. Then Brawn, in his turn, received due congratulations and rupees from his townspeople, and the next contestants step- ped into the ring. One was a man of much the same type as the vic- tor of the previous match; the other a very self-sat- isfied looking Hindu Babu. The latter was almost too fat to look like a wrestler, yet the crowd had "doped" it out that he would win. By his actions he conveyed the impression in a very decided way that he believed in the judgment of the crowd. It took him about twenty minutes to throw his opponent; but he had an excuse ready: he had sprained his wrist, he said, and that was why he did not win sooner. This last match ended the regular schedule, but a bunnia from the North, Dirjon by name, champion of the United Provinces, was willing to take on any- body who cared to wrestle with him. For a time no one seemed very anxious to do so. After a wait, the Rajah made an announcement to the effect that since this man had come all the way from Lucknow, it was a pity he had to go home without having accom- plished anything. At these words, a tall Mohamme- dan stepped out of the crowd, and took up the chal- lenge. The two then went into adjoining tents to get ready. Dirjon came out first, and took his corner amid wild cheers from the spectators. He was a man of average height, very powerfully built, with rippling muscles under his smooth brown skin. He started, after the Indian custom, to warm up, not with some selections from Walter Camp's Daily Dozen as an American might, but with an exercise peculiar to wrestlers of his country,--an exercise which I have never seen in any other part of the world, and one which combines all the contortions of the Daily Dozen in one. As one watched Dirjon's powerful body going through these motions, one could not help wondering at the audacity of the lanky Mo- hammedan who now stepped into his corner. Not a sound did the crowd utter as the two wrest- lers took their places. No time was wasted in pre- liminary feints. Like a flash Dirjon rushed across the soft ground, and in an instant literally picked up his opponent and laid him on his back in the dust. At this the crowd acted exactly as the crowd in the bleachers acts when Babe Ruth knocks his fifty- seventh homer; a noise more like a roar than any- thing else went up and continued for ten minutes without a stop. The celebration was over, but not a soul stirred in the arena for at least ten minutes; after which the crowd moved off slowly, first by ones, and then faster. The Rajah then invited us to tea, which had been prepared on the grounds; and, as we went, we felt that we had had a pleasant afternoon's entertain- ment. --JOHN R.

IN USING THIS BOOK OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: 1. The first column shows the whole Number enumerated. In the second column enter the names of ALL persons enumerated. In using the third column headed "Ages," enter the age of each person enumerated opposite such name, and UNDER THE PROPER HEADING of Male and Female, as required under the new law. In the next columns make a mark opposite the names of all such persons as are between 6 and 8; 8 and 14; 14 and 16; and 16 and 21 years of age. The next column will be used in the case of a joint Sub-District. 2. As the law required (see Section 4030) that the enumeration shall not only give names, ages, and sex, as above stated (and as shown in the ruled and printed columns on the next page,) but also to designate several other conditions named, additional columns are ruled on each right hand page, which are to be used to report the number of youth enumerated (if any) residing in the Western Reserve, the Virginia Military District, the U. S. Military District, and in any original surveyed Township or fractional Township to which belongs section sixteen, or other land in lieu thereof, or any other lands for the use of schools, or any interest in the proceeds of such lands. Each class should be properly designated at the head of such column. If yours is a joint Sub-District, enumerate all the youth who reside in an adjoining Township, designating them in the proper column. A joint Sub-District belongs to the Township in which the school house is situated. Read also the law respecting enumeration of youth on the last page of this book.

Beeghly Library provides for access to knowl- edge. Its four floors, representing an area of 105,000 square feet, are spacious and open, but careful placement of bookshelves and furniture creates small, well-delineated study areas on each floor. Each study area contains the books needed by a specific academic discipline in addition to adequate study carrells and lounge facili- ties to accommodate students using that particular section of the library. For example, one large study area located on the third floor is designed to house the many books associated in the broadest sense with the humanities. A student working in the general disci- pline of the humanities can go to the open stacks in this area to find the books he needs and then return to adjacent tables or carrells to do his studying or research. Similar study areas are spaced throughout the library. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the openness of Beeghly Library gives the building a flexibility which will keep it functional for years to come. Column spacing in the library's stacks permits them to be turned in any required direction. Thus, individual study areas can be made larger or smaller as a changing academic pro- gram or new library servicing techniques might dictate. Air conditioned throughout, Beeghly Library houses more than a third of a million volumes (books, periodicals, and pamphlets) as well as microcards, microfilm, microprint, and other instructional media. In addition, the library serves as a depository for Federal government documents. The total cost of Beeghly Library, including furnishings, was $2,110,668. Title A name given to the resource L. A.

Description An account of the resource [page 10] [corresponds to unlabeled page 10 of Beeghly Library] [half of map of OWU campus; the next page contains the other half of the map] Beeghly Library, located on University Avenue, realized the initiation of a plan to unite Ohio Wesleyan's Residential Campus with its East Campus. The building's covered entry, landscaped ter- race, and paved plaza were designed as part of a pedestrian mall to be construc- ted on University Avenue when the two campuses are eventually joined. The brick, limestone, and granite used for the library's exterior were chosen be- cause of their visual relationship with the exterior materials of existing build- ings: red brick on the Residential Cam- pus, and stone on the East Campus. Ohio Wesleyan gratefully recognizes the cooperation it received from the people of Delaware in securing the site for Beeghly Library, and extends special thanks to Mr. Jack Florance and Mr. Harry Humes for serving as co-chairmen of a Delaware Citizens' Committee.

The year will be historically significant in unique measure as the year in which beautiful L. A. Beeghly was placed in service. I venture to suggest that no other university of our kind and size in America will have a more prideful addition to its educational facilities this year. The library represents a giant step into the future. There is enclosed a dedicatory brochure which pictures and describes the library. Such a publication can only hint at educational dimensions inherent in a building of this kind, with its wonderful facilities for independent study and its extensive audio and visual equipment. I invite you -- indeed, I urge you -- to visit the campus soon to see at first hand the beauty and the promise of this handsome campus addition. An outpouring of generosity by the principal donor, together with a similar degree of devotion from many alumni and friends of the University, have made this library possible. On behalf of all of us, and especially on behalf of the students today and the thousands to come, I wish to express heartfelt gratitude. May you visit us soon! Sincerely, Elden T.

Description An account of the resource [page 9] [corresponds to Preface of Major-General William Stark Rosecrans: hero of Iuka, Corinth and Stone River, and Father of the Army of the Cumberland] PREFACE __________ This little sketch of the life of Major-General Rosecrans is compiled chiefly from current accounts of his life and from an acquaintance first formed in the house of his brother, Bishop Rosecrans of Columbus, Ohio. The author feels that "the present generation stands too close to the monument to take a just view of either its height or its beautiful proportions and that men shall have to get away from it a generation or two in order to under- stand its grand effect upon the surroundings, and the measure of its shadow"; and hence prints these few pages only as a tribute to his memory and a souvenir that may assist in keeping green the remembrance of the Christian warrior's noble life.

HIS BIRTH, LIFE AND DEATH. The last survivor of Ohio's great military quar- tet, - Grant and Sherman, Sheridan and Rosecrans, - has been summoned from earth and "The muffled drum's sad roll has beat The soldier's last tattoo." His war record is written on the pages of American history, and as time goes on will be brighter and greater and better known, when time-servers and applause-seekers have had their day. To those who had the pleasure and honor of knowing the old hero in the avenues of private life, the news of his death came accompanied by the one thought that "An empire is his sepulchre His epitaph is Fame." William Stark Rosecrans was born in Kingston Township, Delaware County, Ohio, September 6, 1819. The name Rosecrans, originally Rosenkrantz, is Dutch and means a Crown or Wreath of Roses. The paternal ancestors of the subject of this memorial were Dutch, coming to America from Amsterdam and settling in Pennsylvania near Wilkesbarre. In 1808, Crandall Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 13) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/15a0ac1997e7c681ddddd8644689b377.jpg 1dda2a9a9b94bac0651beaf8ac0980c8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 14] [corresponds to page 10 of Major-General William Stark Rosecrans: hero of Iuka, Corinth and Stone River, and Father of the Army of the Cumberland] Rosecrans moved to Ohio, locating in Kingston Town- ship, Delaware County, near the line of Licking County. He was married to Jemima Hopkins, a rel- ative of Stephen Hopkins, Rhode Island's signer of the Declaration of Independence, of whom John Adams says: "the pleasantest part of my labors for the four years I spend in Congress, from 1774 to 1778, was in the naval committee. Mr. Lee and Mr. Gasden were sensible men and very cheerful, but Gov. Hopkins of Rhode Island, above 70 years of age, kept us all alive. Upon business his experience and judgment were very useful." Hopkins is an Irish name and the ancestors of General Rosecrans' mother originally came from Ireland; so that in his veins were mingled Dutch and Irish blood. His father, Crandall, was a Captain in one of General Harrison's light-horse bri- gades in our second war with England. He received his second name, Stark, in memory of the famous Revolutionary General Stark of New Hampshire, many of the people of that State having moved to Ohio, in the vicinity of General Rosecrans' birthplace. On December 5, 1894, the writer officiated at the burial of an aged lady near Brandon, Knox County, not far from the Licking County line, and in his note book is the following entry: - "Death of Mrs. Hulda Collopy, age 77. She was a granddaughter of the Revolutionary Chapmans of Vermont and New Hamp- shire. Her father served in the war of 1812. In her childhood days she was a schoolmate of General and Bishop Rosecrans.

When the future General was yet quite young, his father moved across to Licking County, taking up his residence in the village of Homer, and for a number of years, managed the village tavern, at the same time following farming. William attended, for a few months of each year, at the log school-house of the village, acquiring the rudi- ments of education. About 1833, a Lancaster mer- chant, George Arnold, opened a general country store at Utica, Licking County, a few miles from Homer, and young Rosecrans went into the store as a clerk. With him, associated as a clerk, was J. D. Martin, still living and a venerable citizen of Lancaster, Ohio. Arnold moved his store to Mansfield in the course of a year or two, Rosecrans accompanying him. One conversant with the facts says: "While at Mansfield young Rosecrans was the driver for T. W. Bartley, the future Supreme Court Judge of Ohio, on a trip to Columbus. He proved to be an intelligent and inter- esting talker and so pleased Bartley that he urged him to obtain an education." With this in view, Rosecrans and his father opened a correspondence with the Con- gressman from that district and finally he was success- ful in obtaining an appointment to West Point. In the mean time he had spent some time at Kenyon College, Gambier, near Mt. Vernon, preparing him- self for the West Point examination. He entered that institution in 1837, and graduated in 1842, standing fifth in general merit and third in mathematics in a Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 15) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/40ac471d7f920ed00bd1492c7664d8c4.jpg 643f33c1f1f0a24161979875a176d820 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

He entered the ser- vice as Brevet 2nd Lieutenant of Engineers, and after a year as Assistant Engineer, building fortifications at Hampton Roads, Virginia, he returned to West Point in 1843 as Assistant Professor of Engineering. In 1847 he was again put in active sevice at Fort Adams, Newport, Rhode Island, to superintend some repairs on that fortification. April 1, 1854, he resigned, [image: "W. S.

THE CIVIL WAR. At the beginning of the Civil War he volunteered as aide to Gen. George B. McClellan, who was then commanding the department of the Ohio, and assisted in organizing and equipping home guards. He was appointed chief engineer of Ohio, with the rank of colonel, on June 9, 1861, and on June 10 was made colonel of the Twenty-third Ohio Volunteers. Soon after organizing Camp Chase at Columbus, O., he received a commission as brigadier-general in the reg- ular army to date from May 16, 1861; he took the field with command of a provisional brigade under Gen. McClellan in western Virginia. His first import- ant action was that of Rich Mountain, which he won on July 11, 1861. After Gen. McClellan's call to higher command, Rosecrans succeeded him, on July 25, in the department of the Ohio, which consisted of western Virginia, Ohio, Michigan and Indiana. He had command of the national forces, defeated Gen. John B. Floyd at Carnifex Ferry, September 10, 1861, and thwarted all Lee's attempts to gain a footing in western Virginia; and when he went into winter quar- ters at Wheeling, and announced that he had cleared West Virginia of organized Confederate forces, he received the thanks of the Legislature of that State and of Ohio for his management of the campaign.

Description An account of the resource [page 18] [corresponds to page 14 of Major-General William Stark Rosecrans: hero of Iuka, Corinth and Stone River, and Father of the Army of the Cumberland] One of the queerest experiences of military history was his work in the spring of 1862, when he found and extricated Gen. Blenker, who had actually lost himself and his command in the mountains of West Virginia and whose whereabouts were unknown to his superior officers. In May, Rosecrans was sent to Gen. Halleck, who gave him command of the right wing before Corinth. BATTLES OF IUKA AND CORINTH He succeeded Gen. Pope in the command of the Army of the Mississippi and, with four brigades, fought the battle of Iuka, September 19, where he defeated Gen. Price; after which he returned to Corinth, where, anticipating an attack, he fortified the town, and on October 3 and 4 defeated the Confederate army under Van Dorn and Price. On the first day of the battle the enemy was simply checked, and early on the morn- ing of the second day the whole rebel army assaulted Rosecrans' forces. The fighting was fierce, the enemy charging almost into the town. Once, the Union troops came near giving way, but Rosecrans rallied them in person and finally won the day. After this battle he received a letter from Lincoln couched in these words: "I have received the reports of the various com- manders. I have now to tell you that the magnitude of the stake - the battle and the results - become more than ever apparent.

They were commanded by Van Dorn, Price and others in person. They numbered 40,000 men - almost double your own numbers. You fought them into the position we desired on the 3d, punishing them ter- ribly; and on the 4th, three hours after the infantry went into action, they were completely beaten.

I congratulate you on these decisive results. In the name of the Government and the people, I thank you. I beg you to unite with me in giving humble thanks to the Great Master of all our victories." Rosecrans was much impressed by Sheridan's fight against the Confederate cavalry under Chalmers at Corinth and persistently and successfully urged the authorities at Washington to give him a command in which his ability and qualities would be more widely useful. This fact gave rise to the saying so commonly heard in after years, that Rosecrans "discovered" Phil. Sheridan. On October 25 he went to Cincinnati, where he found orders awaiting him to supersede Gen. Don Carlos Buell and was made commander of the DEPARTMENT OF THE CUMBERLAND. which was to consist of whatever territory south of the Cumberland he should take from the enemy.

After providing twenty days' rations at Nashville, he advanced on the enemy under Gen. Bragg, on Stone River, December 30, 1862. This battle lasted four days. A current account of it says: "The right wing was commanded by Gen. A. Mc- Dowell McCook, a brave and gallant officer, and he had under him as brave a corps of men as ever faced an enemy. Early on the morning of the first day's battle McCook's corps was fiercely attacked by the enemy in force and driven pell mell to the rear, but not without first making a most determined and dread- ful fight, suffering heavy loss. "This attack of the enemy commenced about 6 o'clock a. m., before daylight, and before many of McCook's men had finished their bacon and coffee. "The heavy firing on the right naturally attracted the attention of Rosecrans, who had been closely watch- ing the movements of Bragg. About 9 o'clock on the morning of that day he saw that McCook's men were falling back rapidly and in disorder, and that some- thing must be done and be done quickly to check the enemy's advance on his right wing.

It was a storm of shot and shell in which the right wing of the Union army was being driven like straws before a cyclone. Realizing the dreadful position into which the rebels were speed- ily crowding him, Rosecrans, unattended by guard or staff, rode quickly into the thickest of the fight, and, drawing his sword, waved it over his head and yelled to his retreating men to halt, face and fight the enemy. "The sight of 'Old Rosy' in the thick of the fight, exposing his life every moment, so inspired McCook's brave but broken ranks with sudden enthusiasm and determination that the retreating line halted, 'about faced,' and delivered a volley of musketry into the enemy's ranks that staggered and checked their fur- ther advance. "Two days later the battle was renewed by a furious assault on the national lines, but after sharp fighting the enemy was driven back with heavy loss. "Unwilling to engage in a general action, the Con- federate army retreated to the line of Duck River, and the Army of the Cumberland occupied Murfrees- boro. This battle was one of the bloodiest in the war, and resulted in a loss of 9,511 men by the national forces and 9,236 by the Confederates. As soon as Vicksburg was beyond the reach of possible succor from Bragg, by a brilliant flank movement Rosecrans dislodged him from his intrenched camps at Shelby- ville and Tullahoma, and in fifteen days, June 24 to July 7, 1863, drove him out of the middle of Tennessee.

He reached the river on the evening of August 20 and the army, except the cavalry, safely crossed. Bragg withdrew from Chattanooga and re- tired behind Chickamauga until the arrival of Long- street's corps. Thus the first great move of Rose- crans' campaign was accomplished. He then began to concentrate his forces with the utmost dispatch to meet the inevitable combat. The battle was commenced on September 19 by an attempt to gain possession of the road to Chattanooga, con- tinued through the day, and resulted in Rosecrans defeating the attempt and planting Gen. Thomas' corps, with Johnson's and Palmer's divisions, firmly upon that road; but during the night Longstreet came up and was immediately given command of the Con- federate left. On the following morning the contest was renewed by a determined attack on the national left and center. At this moment, by the misinterpretation of an order, Gen. Thomas J. Wood's division was withdrawn, leav- ing a gap in the center, into which Gen. Longstreet pressed his troops, forced Jefferson C. Davis' two bri- gades out of the line, and cut off Philip H. Sheridan's three brigades of the right, all of which, after a gallant but unsuccessful effort to stem this charge, were ordered to reform on the Dry Valley road at the first good standing ground in rear of the position they had lost.

The remainder, nearly seven divisions, were unbroken, and continued the fight. The gallant Gen. George H. Thomas, whose orders the night before, reiterated a few moments before this disaster, were to hold his position at all hazards, continued to fight with seven divisions, while Gen. Rosecrans undertook to make such dispositions as would most effectually avert disaster in case the enemy should turn the position by advancing on the Dry Valley road, and capture the remaining commissary stores, then in a valley two or three miles to the west. Fortunately, this advance was not made, the commissary train was pushed into Chattanooga, the cavalry, ordered down, closed the ways behind the national right, and Gen. Thomas, after the most desperate fighting, drew back at night to Rossville in pursuance of orders from Gen. Rosecrans. On the 22d the army was concentrated at Chattanooga. The battle was a victory to the Confederates only in name, for Chattanooga, the objective point of the cam- paign, remained in the possession of the national forces. The total national loss, in killed, wounded and missing, was 16,179; the Confederate loss, 17,804. Shortly after the battle General Rosecrans issued the following letter, which old veterans love to refer to as a summing up of the great campaign under his command: HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE CUMBERLAND.

You concentrated in the face of superior numbers; fought the combined armies of Bragg, which you drove from Shelbyville to Tullahoma; of Johnston's army from Mississippi, and the tried veterans of Longstreet's corps, and for two days held them at bay, giving them blow for blow, with heavy interest. When you withdrew in the face of over- powering numbers, to occupy the point for which you set out - Chattanooga. You have accomplished the work of the campaign; you hold the key of East Tennessee, of Northern Georgia and of the enemies' mines of coal and nitre.

The losses you have sustained, though heavy, are slight, considering the odds against you, and the stake you have won. The General Commanding earnestly begs every officer and soldier of this army to unite with him in thanking Almighty God for His favor to us. He presents his hearty thanks and congratulations to all the officers and soldiers of this com- mand, for their energy, patience and perseverance, and the undaunted courage displayed by those who fought with such unflinching resolution.

In 1880, he was elected as a Democrat to the lower house of Congress, from California; carrying a strong Republican district. In the House he was Chairman of the Committee on Military Affairs, having been re- elected in 1882. June 8, 1885, he was appointed by President Cleveland, whose warm friend and admirer he had been, Register of the Treasury. March 2, 1889, he was by act of Congress put on the retired list of the U.

S., and to place him upon the retired list of the army as of that grade (the retired list being thereby increased in number to that extent); and all laws and parts of laws in conflict herewith are suspended for this purpose only." A rancorous debate ensued on its passage, owing to the fact that when a similar bill placing Grant upon the retired list was up for passage, Rosecrans, then a member of Congress and Chairman on Military Affairs had persistently opposed it. During the debate, many members who had served in the Army of the Cumberland, came valiantly to the defense of the old hero, and as one said: "We can afford to forget what Gen. Rosecrans may have said, but we can not afford to forget what he did." The bill finally passed with- out division. Rosecrans retained office as Register of the Treas- ury under President Harrison, until failing health forced him, a few years ago, to seek repose in the climate of California, where, on his ranch some ten miles from Los Angeles, he calmly awaited the end of life.

Hancock, Sheridan and Sher- man were all in love with California's gorgeous cli- mate, its blue skies, its perennial vegetation, the infi- nite peace that settles upon the land, the exuberance of its soil and the mysterious Pacific, with its wonder- ful flora and fauna. General Grant was making prep- arations to end his days in California when he fell ill. All along the coast, from Seattle to San Diego, are to be found old soldiers spending their declining years in surroundings the very opposite from those that accompany the life of the fighting man. Gen. Rosecrans came to California in 1867. At that time San Francisco had yet all the bizarre aspects of a city near the gold mines. Southern California was a wilderness of sand and sage brush, tangles of cacti, fields of alfalfa and other vegetation native to the soil. Gen. Rosecrans had determind beforehand to buy land in California, but when he made inquiries he was amazed to find great unanimity of opinion to the effect that beyond the mid-line of the state there was nothing worth having.

Captain Banning per- suaded him to take a trip on his boat to San Pedro. On the four days' voyage the General was struck with the absence of harbors all along the rugged coast. He was discouraged.

However, he visited Los Angeles, then a settle- ment of a few cheap houses. On his way he stopped at an old adobe "half-way" house, and standing on the eminence, he cast his eyes over a stretch of coun- try 1,000 miles in area, as it seemed to him. Speaking of that sight he said, a little time before his death: "I saw at a glance around me all this glorious val- ley, with the mountains forming three-fourths of a circle to the back and on both sides of me, and the ocean in front, sounding then and eternally. It was a brilliant day, a specimen day of the 300 perfect ones we have in this climate. I thought I had never seen such a sky, nor such colors in the atmosphere along near the ground and over against the mountains. Here, I said to myself, I will buy land and build me a home, for if water can be developed, I may be certain to have neighbors in the not too distant future." DWINDLING OF HIS ESTATE. That view settled it. He would buy land there from the government and from the handful of unsuccessful pioneers who were already convinced that the country could never amount to anything. And he did. He acquired for a song an estate of 14,000 acres. Most of that superb property the General lost in the mining holes of Nevada. At present all that is left of it is a ranch of 1,100 acres. But that much was sufficient to gratify his passion for farming.

The mansion is not really a house, but a collection of houses of a rude exterior but com- fortable enough within. The General farmed wisely after the theory of the Southern Californian. "Measure the value of your land," says Senator Jones of Nevada to the settler in Southern California, "by what it will bring in wheat and barley." All but 300 acres bear deciduous and citrus fruits, eucalyptus trees for fuel, a potato field, and a strawberry bed. HIS LAST DAYS. Here, with his son Carl, he passed the last days of his life in peace and serenity. His home was a modest one. There were some family portraits, not- ably one of his wife, whom he married in the forties and who was the daughter of Judge Hegeman, a prominent New York lawyer. She died during his official life in Washington. In his home, also, were his old war mementoes,-maps, reports, flags and swords and a substantial library of scientific works. One of his favorite papers was the "Scientific American." His last days were crowned, on Laetare Sunday, March 14, 1896, by a visit from Bishop Montgomery, accom- panied by members of the clergy and laity of Los Angeles, who went down to his ranch to formally present him with the medal and address which the University of Notre Dame, Indiana, annually bestows on a Catholic layman noted for extraordinary devo- tion to Church or State.

This little river still bears its Indian name - Chicka- mauga (river of death) - and how significant since September 19 and 20, 1863, when near and about its banks was fought one of the greatest battles of modern times, a battle that will go down in history with Auster- litz, Waterloo, Marengo, and Gettysburg, a battle that a general engaged in it compares with Flodden Field, where both Surrey of England and James of Scotland believed the other army was vanquished and neither could claim a victory. Pages and volumes, tons of literature have been written about the great battle of Chickamauga and still the question remains a disputed one. It is interesting to note that Gen. Rosecrans suc- ceeded in command of the Army of the Cumberland another Ohio-born general, also a convert to the Catholic Church, Gen. Don Carlos Buell, born near Marietta, Ohio and still living in the vicinity of Louis- ville, Kentucky.

First, it is maintained that Chickamauga was not a Union defeat; second, Gen. Rosecrans was not properly sustained by the Washington authorities, notably Stanton, the famous war secretary; thirdly, that Rosecrans was not in favor with higher authorities on account of his political and religious beliefs, being a War Democrat and a Catholic. To the last assertion we give but little credence; pos- sibly it entered into the history of those days, but, if so, only to a minor degree; and here we would call attention only to the other two. Was Chickamauga a Union defeat? Most emphatically, No! In defense of this I append an editorial that appeared some years ago in the columns of the Columbus Dispatch, for the reason that it states the question and answers it in most concise and clear terms: CHICKAMAUGA HISTORY REVIEWED "The fields of Gettysburg and Chickamauga are especially worthy of adornment, not because more chivalrous courage was displayed on them than else- where, but because they mark not only important events, but critical periods in the great civil war. At Gettysburg it was demonstrated that a confederate army could not permanently occupy a free state.

After Gettysburg the Army of Northern Virginia, under Lee, lost all desire for offensive warfare; and the confederate general, D. H. Hill, says: "The olan of the Southern soldier was never seen after Chickamauga - that brilliant dash which had distinguished him on a hundred fields was gone forever." "It has been alleged that Chickamauga resulted in the defeat of the Union army, and that Rosecrans' campaign south of the Tennessee was unsuccessful. Let us see how much truth there is in this allegation. If Lee, after fighting the battle of Gettysburg, had moved on to Harrisburg, and occupied that city to the end of the war, would his campaign have been regarded as a failure or a success? Grant was roughly handled in the Wilderness, and the enemy after pounding him for two days, and inflicting upon him great loss, took position and awaited his assault, but he did not make it; on the contrary, he moved on towards Richmond. Was Grant defeated? No. Again, he found Lee across his path at Spottsylvania Court House, and after a long battle and frightful losses he left him where he found him, and resumed his march towards Richmond. Was Grant defeated here? No. At North Anna he found Lee again obstructing his pro- gress, and moved around and beyond him.

Do historians claim that all battles referred to were federal defeats? Not at all. Neither history nor popular opinion will admit that Grant ever suffered a defeat. Now, in the light of these admittedly suc- cessful operations, let us run through an epitome of the history of the Army of the Cumberland. "Rosecrans assumed command of the Union forces, subsequently known as the Army of the Cumberland, in the latter part of October, 1862, a few weeks after they had, in part, participated in the battle of Perrys- ville, Kentucky. In the following December he at- tacked the Confederate army under Bragg, near Mur- freesboro, and after a fierce contest continuing for four days, won the battle of Stone River. After fortifying Murfreesboro, with a view to making it a depot of supplies, he resumed his march southward, drove Bragg from his fortified camp at Tullahoma, and pur- sued his retreating columns beyond the Cumberland Mountains and the Tennessee River. The Confederate army now concentrated at Chattanooga. In this posi- tion it could not be disturbed by a direct attack. Rest- ing on the northern bank of the Tennessee only long enough to make arrangement for bringing forward his supplies, Rosecrans crossed the river, struggled with his long supply train over two mountain ranges, and descended into the Chickamauga valley; thus threat- ening not only the railroads upon which the Confed- erate army depended for subsistence, but menacing Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 39) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/6a70244b44fef2e01d4fc4dbe5102327.jpg d515749244c32ce261f94bbbdeb0a242 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The objective of the Union general was Chattanooga, the key to the railroad system of the South. Bragg now abandoned Chattanooga in order to put himself between the Union army and his base of supplies, and at the same time appealed to the Confederate govern- ment for reinforcements. The reinforcements he called for were immedately supplied. Buckner, with a divis- ion, hurried to him from the vicinity of Knoxville, and Longstreet, with a corps of 15,000 men, was trans- ferred by rail from Richmond to Chickamauga. Then, on parallel lines with both armies at equal distances from Chattanooga, there began on both sides a con- centration northward toward the prize for which Rose- crans was struggling. The purpose of the federal army was to reach Chattanooga; that of the Confed- erate army to prevent it. And while rapidly shifting northward toward the place it had set out to seize and hold, the Union army was assailed, not in a position of its own choice, but in one selected by the enemy. After the first day's fighting both armies sought and secured new positions. After the second day's battle the Union army, following the trend of its previous movements, moved to Rossville, three or four miles nearer Chattanooga than in the field on which it had fought, took position there and awaited the coming of the enemy. The enemy came, but not in force. The fact is, the Confederate army had had all the fight- ing it could stand, and hence permitted the Army of the Cumberland to march deliberately and leisurely from Rossville into Chattanooga.

What constitutes a victory? The posses- sion of a few barren hills and ridges over which armies may march and fight? If so, Rosecrans' movement from the Cumberland to the Tennessee was a succes- sion of the Union victories, for every foot of it was over hostile territory. There are two things, either of which may make a victory; first, the destruction of an army; second, the winning of the prize for which two armies contend. The Army of the Cumberland was not de- stroyed. In fact, with fewer men than the enemy, it inflicted greater loss upon the Confederates than it sustained. By an unlucky blunder its right wing was disabled early on the second day, but by such fighting as has never been surpassed, the army maintained its ground until there was not a shot to answer nor an assault to be repelled, and then deliberately took pos- session of the prize for which it had been contending. From that time forward Kentucky, Tennessee and Ala- bama were practically free from the incursions of the enemy. The importance of Chattanooga in a military sense was not even second to Vicksburg. The occu- pation of the latter by Union troops left the Mississippi unobstructed from its head waters to the Gulf. The occupation of Chattanooga opened the gate by which the Union army could march almost unopposed to the sea. It may be said the Army of the Cumberland did not alone expel Bragg from the heights of Mis- sionary Ridge.

As to the second, Was Rosecrans properly sup- ported by the Washington authorities? No. Not long ago a New York paper told the story by way of anecdote, - an anecdote that is more to the credit of Rosecrans than might be a whole chapter of history. The words of the New York paper were: "The campaign which ended in the occupation of Chattanooga and which included the great battle of Chickamauga was one of the most brilliant of the whole war, when the conditions under which it was carried out are understood. Gen. Rosecrans started from Murfreesboro June 24, 1863 with the Army of the Cumberland, which had been promised support from Burnside's army of the Tennessee. Gen. Bragg, the Confederate commander, had been re-enforced by troops from Virginia under that brilliant and able officer, Gen. Longstreet. Regardless of the counsels of commanders, the clamor of the press and the prin- ciples of military science, Rosecrans, with the army of the Cumberland, was sent to dislodge an enemy of equal strength from a country well known to him and well adapted on account of its mountainous char- acter to defensive tactics. "Governors Austin of Pennsylvania, Andrew of Mas- sachusetts and Yates of Illinois offered to send Rose- crans seven regiments of two-year veterans, who were willing to re-enlist on condition that they should go as mounted infantry to the army of the Cumberland, but Secretary Stanton, who was implacably hostile Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 42) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/a156a7d554a180aebb53e00bb073fcfe.jpg 22d1a81d8d29008399a53cf9ac699ec6 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Gen. Lovell H. Rousseau bore a letter to the secretary of war explaining how very important the service of such a body of men would be in guarding the long line of communications which would have to be kept open in the advance upon Chattanooga. When the secretary read Gen. Rosecrans' letter, he said to Gen. Rousseau: "I would rather you would come to ask the command of the army of the Cumberland than to ask reinforcements for Gen. Rosecrans. He shall not have another d----d man." "So the army of the Cumberland set out alone, and this, in brief, is what it accomplished under the general to whom Stanton refused to send 'another d----d man': Dislodged the enemy from two strongly fortified camps; crossed the Cumberland Mountains, the Ten- nessee River, Sand Mountains and Lookout Mountain; fought the battle of Chickamauga, and on September 22, 1863, just 92 days from starting from Murfrees- boro, 119 miles away, held Chattanooga, the objective of the campaign. "Thus Rosecrans, in a campaign of 92 days, secured and held Chattanooga, the gate through which Sher- man and his army entered the Confederate wall when starting for the sea." The following brief extract from "The Army of the Cumberland," written by Henry M. Cist, brevet brig- adier-general, throws some light on the treatment Rosecrans received from the Washington authorities: "On March 1 (1862) Halleck, as Commander-in- Chief of the Armies of the United States, wrote a let- Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 43) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/5abe7638ab8d4fef74b1e66ec789133d.jpg 810b5ea5db17fc9be64a598f0b03e66f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Grant very quietly folded up the letter, put it by for future reference and proceeded with the plans of his cam- paign, saying nothing. To Rosecrans' open, impulsive and honorable nature, engaged with all his powers in furthering the interests of the Government and the general welfare of his command, this letter was an in- sult, and he treated it accordingly. On March 6 he prepared his reply and forwarded it to Washington. In this letter he informed the General in Chief that 'as an officer and as a citizen he felt degraded at such an auctioneering of honors,' and then added: 'Have we a general who would fight for his personal benefit when he would not for honor and for his country? He would come by his commission basely in that case, and deserve to be despised by men of honor. But are all the brave and honorable generals on an equality as to chance? If not, it is unjust to those who prob- ably deserve most.' "The effect of this letter was to widen the breach between the authorities at Washington and Rosecrans. Halleck's letter and Rosecrans' reply were both char- acteristic of the men. From this time forward all the requests of Rosecrans for the improvement of the efficiency of his army were treated with great coolness, and in many instances it was only after the greatest importunity that he was able to secure the least atten- tion to his recommendations for the increased useful- ness of his command."

GENERAL MANDERSON, Senator from Nebraska, in a masterly oration deliv- ered in 1895, says: "And yet, in spite of abundant available testimony, Chickamauga is declared by those either ignorant or jealous to have been a defeat of the Federal arms, and the non-fighting croakers at Wash- ington indulged in much paper bombardment of those who planned the campaign. A victim was demanded, and Rosecrans was cruelly sacrificed. His services from the beginning of the war were ignored. No rec- ollection of Stone River moved to respect for that abil- ity that we who had served under him knew he pos- sessed. The vilification of Rosecrans by these carping critics was abuse of the grand army he led from Nash- ville to Murfreesboro; to 'victory plucked from the jaws of defeat' and victory most pronounced at Stone River; through the Tullahoma campaign to the final occupation of the objective point of all military en- deavor, from the days of 1861 when the troops of the Union crossed the Ohio River. Rosecrans came to us with the halo of battles fought and won, and secured not only the confidence but the affection of his men, who gave the soldier's characteristic evidence of it by giving him a familiar nickname and to us of that time he is still 'Old Rosey.'

GENERAL A. WILEY says: "The campaign of Rosecrans was bold, enter- prising, vigorous. By his sound judgment and vig- ilance he anticipated and countered every movement of his adversary. Throughout he exhibited the high- est degree of moral courage. That he failed of accom- plishing all he attempted was no fault of his own, nor was it due to any lack of the highest soldierly qualities of the army he commanded. It was attributable to the superior advantages for rapid concentration which interior lines afforded his adversary, and to the total failure of support and co-operation on the part of Burnside, on which he had been told, at the com- mencement of the campaign, he could rely." GENERAL PHIL SHERIDAN in his "Personal Memoirs" says of Rosecrans' removal from the command of the Army of the Cumberland: "He submitted uncomplainingly to his removal and modestly left us without fuss or demonstration, ever maintaining that the battle of Chickamauga was in effect a victory. When his departure became known, deep and almost universal regret was expressed, for he was enthusiastically esteemed and loved by the Army of the Cumberland from the day he assumed command until he left it."

V. BOYNTON, still living and a prominent journalist in Washington, who at all times has insisted that Rosecrans was not properly supported by the authorities at Washington, a fact which seems now to be pretty well established. One writer, in summing up the whole campaign, says: "It was one of the most brilliant of the whole war, when the conditions under which it was carried out are understood, and opened the way by which the troops of Sherman and Hooker were concentrated and was the entering wedge by which the former com- menced his historic march to the sea through Georgia and the Carolinas." GENERAL ROSECRANS broke the silence of years in 1880 to publicly contra- dict the current statement that the only order issued by him on the day of the battle was the one that opened the fatal gap in the Union lines, all the other orders being attributed to his chief of staff, General Garfield. In contradicting this statement, from all responsibility in regard to which he chivalrously exonerated Gen. Garfield, Gen. Rosecrans speaks of it as "another out- cropping of the historic lies about Chickamauga which began in a gigantic conspiracy through the press to cover up the crime against our country which was per- petrated in sending the Army of the Cumberland, alone and unaided, over an almost barren wilderness, across the Cumberland Mountains and Lookout Range into the mountains of Northwestern Georgia, 150 miles from its nearest base of supplies, to encounter the con- Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 47) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/4e768bb421509ca877ac0e8b280621b6.jpg ec8d8d65bb5b9e56879d58ae4286084f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Burnside, with 42,000 effectives, was sent 200 miles away into East Tennessee, where he could not weigh a feather in the contest; the Gulf Department, by its expedition under Herron into Texas, was wholly incap- able of making diversion on the gulf coast which would detain a single man from our front, and the Army of the Potomac was so inactive as to permit Lee to send Longstreet's whole corps to join in crushing us." History has, however, rendered tardy justice to Gen. Rosecrans; and its verdict may be summed up in these words of Gen. Boynton, who, after speaking of Chickamauga as crowning with success the last cam- paign of Gen. Rosecrans, and being "matchless in its strategy, unequalled in the skill and energy with which his outnumbered army was concentrated for battle," says that had Rosecrans "crossed the river in front of the city and captured it with even greater loss, the country would have gone wild with enthusiasm. Had he been properly supported from Washington, he would have entered it without a battle, since if there had been any show of activity elsewhere, Bragg's army would not have been nearly doubled with re-enforce- ments and thus enabled to march back on Chatta- nooga after its retreat from the city." Practically, the battle was a Union victory, won by Rosecrans' masterly skill and indomitable perseverance; and, as Gen. Hill admitted, it "sealed the fate of the Southern Confed- eracy."

After his removal from the Army of the Cumberland, public feeling once more turned toward him and there was a general sentiment in and out of army circles that he had been unjustly dealt with. So strong was this feeling that well informed politicians thought that he would add strength to the Republican ticket, and in June, 1864, Garfield telegraphed him from Bal- timore asking him if we would accept the nomination for Vice-president on the ticket with Lincoln. Though always a Democrat and intensely loyal, after consult- ing friends he wired back a message that virtually was in the affirmative. Garfield always claimed he never received the message and so Andy Johnson was put on the ticket. It has since been pretty well established that Stan- ton suppressed the message of Rosecrans, for Rose- crans was always "persona non grata" at the War Depart- ment, for the reason that he was not afraid to tell the truth. When war was a certainty, in 1861, Gen. Morgan, of Mt. Vernon, Ohio, was summoned by Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 49) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/1d5501e669b84d4daa972a961e1b6025.jpg 3d415de2cac01bdc694ca5460a58e501 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Scott. Asked what should be done with Robt. E. Lee, who had laid down his commission as an U. S. Army officer, he at once answered in his brusque way, "Slap him in jail, for if you don't, he will lead the secessionists." Stanton scoffed at this idea, but history proves Mor- gan was right. Stanton had no use for any man who happened to know just a bit more than he did. Rosecrans had a similar experience. He had opin- ions and plans of his own concerning the war, and like Morgan, did not hesitate to say that, knowing the people of the South, he knew the war could not be finished in a few weeks. Stanton at that time had a bad case of enlargement of the head - now politely called mental mumps - and insisted that the North could whip h--l out of the South before the summer was over. Morgan and Rosecrans and other officers of experience thought otherwise. Rosecrans, forti- fied by a brilliant record as an officer of engineers, and knowing Longstreet, Van Dorn and others of the South - they had been his classmates at West Point - received a cordial hearing from Lincoln and McClel- lan. His suggestions were not listened to, - Stanton would have none of them. Stanton's enmity was also increased by Rosecrans' letter to Halleck in 1862, mentioned previously in this sketch, and also by the fact that Rosecrans was cred- ited by the public with having "discovered" Sheridan.

Thomas in his place reached the army, they were denounced on all sides as unjust. "Gen. Thomas, " according to Gen. Boynton, "insisted that he would resign rather than acquiesce in Gen. Rose- crans' removal by his accepting the command, It was at Rosecrans' earnest solicitation that he reconsidered this determination. But he did not hesitate to say that the order was cruelly unjust. When Gen. Garfield left for Washington soon after the battle, he imme- diately charged him to do all he could to have Rose- crans righted." Whether Garfield ever carried out the wish of Thomas is uncertain to this day. The probabilities are, that knowing Stanton's hostility to Rosecrans, he never made the attempt. Garfield at that time was a member of Congress from Ohio and had stood for election in his district by the advice of Rosecrans, who said that he (Gar- field), having been in the field and knowing the needs of the army, would be able to do much good on the floor of congress whenever war measures came before that body. There has always been a lurking suspicion that Garfield in his ambition forgot his old commander and how much he owed him for his own success.

In com- pany with another cadet, now Very Rev. George Deshon, Superior of the Paulist Fathers of New York, he became interested in the claims of the Church and it was not long until his logical mind was convinced; and finally, two years after his graduation, while he was Assistant Professor of Engineering, in 1844, he was, in his own words, "baptized 'sub conditione' be- cause it was a vague tradition that in my early days a Protestant or Wesleyan Methodist minister at my grandmother's instance had baptized me, following the traditional ritual of the Church of England in so doing." Shortly after his marriage his wife also be- came a Catholic, and in 1846 he was instrumental in converting his brother, Sylvester, who eventually became the first Catholic Bishop of Columbus, Ohio, within whose diocese was located his birthplace, Homer, Licking County.

After the younger graduated, he paid his elder brother a visit, and as the two were taking a walk one day, they chanced to pass a Catholic church; whereupon the young lieutenant, to quote the words of one con- versant with the facts in the case, said to his brother: "It is high time, Sylvester, for you to put an end to this procrastination of yours; come in here and get baptized." Mechanically obeying the command, and entering for the first time in his life a Catholic church, the same authority tells the story of the Bishop's conversion: "They soon reached an altar, before which, to the young brother's surprise, shone a lighted lamp,' said the captain, 'in the Real Presence, for two graces, the grace of light to know the truth, and the grace of strength to follow it'; and with this he knelt down. Sylvester also knelt, as a matter of courtesy to his brother, but by no means to pray. He gazed around for a while at the works of art within reach of his eyes, but not being in the habit of kneeling long at any time, and his knees aching, he turned to look at his brother, whom he found absorbed in God. "The sight was too much for Sylvester. 'Wretch that I am,' said he to himself, 'while this truly good man is so earnestly interesting himself with Heaven for my soul's salvation, I am indifferent, as if it were none of my business. God is everywhere, and there- fore, here; I, too, will pray for strength and light.' - And he did pray, so long and earnestly, that when he Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 53) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/b8e0acb6a7accd0f5fbed04a84a3478d.jpg b66cde311b2508ed0652609232f538e5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Up sprang Sylvester, and with agitated steps he approached the captain. 'Well, Syl- vester,' whispered the latter, 'what will you do?' 'I wish to be baptized,' was the prompt reply; 'I hope the priest is at home.' Happily the priest was at home, and finding his caller already, thanks to his brother's good offices, well instructed in Catholic teachings, he had no hesitation in baptizing him and receiving him into the Catholic fold. Many years later, when the diocese of Columbus was erected, Rt. Rev. Sylvester Horton Rosecrans, who had been consecrated titular of Pompeiopolis, in partibus, on the feast of the An- nunciation, 1862, and appointed Auxiliary to Arch- bishop Purcell, of Cincinnati, was transferred to the new See, and at once took possession of his vineyard." The following letter received by the writer some years ago, it need not be mentioned, is highly prized: TREASURY DEPARTMENT, REGISTER's OFFICE. Dec. 11, 1886.

Dr. Villani, pastor of the Catholic Church at that place, and in charge of the station at the Post of West Point, in the summer of 1846. I was his godfather and my wife his godmother. I do not remember whether it was 'sub conditione.' My baptism in 1844 was 'sub conditione,' because it was a vague tradition that in my early infancy a Protestant or Wes- leyan Methodist minister at my grandmother's instance had baptized me, following the traditional ritual of the church of England in so doing.

It is told that at a most critical moment during the battle of Stone River, when McCook's men were wavering, he dashed to the front, exposing him- self to the enemy's fire. A young staff officer (no doubt Garesche, a great favorite of our hero and a Catholic) who accompanied him, begged him to retire to a place of greater safety and not expose himself to almost certain death. Rosecrans, urging on his horse, replied: "Never mind me, my boy, but make the sign of the cross and go in." In his "reminis- cences," now being published in McClure's Magazine, the late Charles A. Dana, assistant secretary of war under Stanton, states that he saw Rosecrans making the sign of the cross during the awful conflict at Chick- amauga. Both his great mind and his large heart were thor- oughly imbued with strong Catholic faith, and though not seeking occasion to outwardly manifest it to the world, it instinctively would crop out on certain occa- sions, sometimes when least expected. Some years ago, while passing through Ohio on a campaign tour with Hendricks, he reached Columbus one evening, taking rooms with his political companions at the Neil House. He soon excused himself from the party and wended his way out Broad street to the Cathedral, where he made inquiry for a priest, desiring to go to confession that he might the next morning go to Holy Communion for his deceased brother, the Bishop, whose remains rest under the altar of that church.

As he was returning to the hotel, he met one of his political friends who had been looking for him and who said: "Why! General, where in the world have you been so early this morn- ing? Your friends at the hotel are anxious about you, that you may not miss that early train." The old veteran answered: "Oh! I have been out to the Cathedral to pay my respects to Almighty God and to pray for my brother, who used to be Bishop out there." The answer, from other lips, might have seemed trivial, but coming from him in deep voice and reverential tone, it was beautiful. The two who heard it have always remembered it, - one a Cath- olic, the other a non-Catholic. The words, the far- away look in the old hero's eyes, the reverence of the voice, the early morning of a beautiful September day, all chimed to make it an occasion that the two present have never forgotten. It was this same spirit and simplicity of faith that caused him to pen the telegram that he sent from Cal- ifornia to New York on the occasion of the death of his brilliant son, Father Louis Rosecrans, a member of the Paulist Order. When telegraphed of the death and asked for any wish as to the place of burial, the wires bore back this sweet message: "Bury him beside his Paulist brethren to await the great Resurrection Day, and God bless all who have been kind to him."

"At night, when conversation took a relig- ious turn," says the same writer, "the General took the argument and carried it often into the realms of Mother Church, where the vehemence of his intellect and his zealous temper developed themselves thor- oughly. He had the Fathers of the Church at his tongue's end, and exhibited a familiarity with con- troversial theology that made him a formidable antag- onist to the best read, even of the clerical profession. He would admit no fallibility whatever in any depart- ment of his own Church, but he did not permit his strong reliance in the Church of Rome to warp his judgment in material things, especially in military mat- ters." On the morning of every important engage- ment, or perilous undertaking, it was his invariable custom to attend Mass and commit himself and his army to the keeping of the God of battles. Here is Major Bickham's description of how he begun the Stone River fight, one of the most glorious of his victories: "A little later (than the dawn of day) the dauntless leader of the army knelt at the altar and prayed to the God of battles. High (?) Mass was celebrated in a little tent opposite his marquee. Rev. Father Cooney, the zealous chaplain of the 35th Reg- iment of Indiana Volunteers, officiated, assisted by Rev. Father Trecy, the constant spiritual companion of the General, and whose fidelity to his chief was second only to his devotion to the faith he preached. Gen.

What grave anxieties, what exquisite emotions, what deep thoughts moved the hearts and minds of those pious soldiers, into whose keeping God and their country had delivered, not merely the lives of a thousand men who must die at last, but the vitality of a principle, the cause of self government and of human liberty!" He was averse to all needless labor on the Lord's day, a fact that was so well understood by his staff, that Gen. Crittenden once said of his commander that "he did not believe the Master would smile upon any unnecessary violations of His laws." Firm in his own faith, "he never interferes," said an eye-witness of his acts, "with the spiritual affairs of any subordinate, regarding these as sacred personal matters, to be gov- erned by the convictions of each individual." At proper time and in the proper place, though, he was ever ready to speak for his faith and impress its truth upon others. The priests in the army were his par- ticular friends; and Father Trecy, formerly of Hunts- ville, Ala., was held in special regard by him because of his personal worth and the fact that his loyalty to the Union made it necessary for him to quit the South. He was attending a Mass celebrated by that clergy- man when the news was brought to him that his pray- ers for his country had been answered, that the enemy had fled and that the important battle of Stone River had been won.

TRIBUTES In a speech at the Chickamauga dedication, Mc- Kinley, then Governor of Ohio, said: "General Rosecrans, a graduate of great dis- tinction at the United States Military Academy in 1842, and who served in the army until 1864, was the commander-in-chief of the Union forces and was an honored citizen of our own State. He entered the vol- unteer service as colonel of the Twenty-third Ohio infantry. I recall him with peculiar tenderness and respect. He was the first colonel of the regiment to which I belonged, my boyhood ideal of a great soldier; and I gladly pay him my tribute of love for his tender qualities which endeared him to me, and the high sol- dierly qualities which earned for him the gratitude of the State for his magnificent service to the Union cause. Ohio is proud of him and in his old age and declining years I beg him to know that he enjoys the affection- ate regard of the old State, which will guard his fame forever." When the bill placing him on the retired list was before Congress some fourteen speeches were made on the occasion. I quote from a few: Gen. Cutcheon, of Michigan, said: "When the tocsin of war was sounded, Gen. Rose- crans did not hesitate or falter, but he left every- Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 59) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/8d759b22fe9e9502b0bd8d03bbc1d510.jpg 15ec85a20c7df879714842149d389ab9 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Rosecrans, in the very beginning, in West Virginia, gave us victory. Again in the far South- west, at Iuka, he gave us victory. He was promoted step by step from colonel to brigadier-general, and from that to major-general, and was placed at the head of the Army of the Cumberland, and again, in the closing days of December, 1862, at Stone River, he lighted the horizon of this whole country from edge to edge with the fires of victory. Then, following that, he gave us one of the most magnificent specimens of perfect strategy that the entire war afforded, in the Tullahoma campaign, when, almost without the sac- rifice of a life, he flanked Bragg out of his fortified position at Tullahoma and carried his army across the mountains into the valley of Chickamauga." Hon. O. L. Jackson, of Pennsylvania, who served four years in the army of the Tennessee, said: "It was Rosecrans who commanded and directed the brave men at Stone River on those fearful winter days when again the tide of battle was turned south- ward. It was under him Phil Sheridan first rode at the head of a division, and on this bloody field gave evidence of the high rank he was afterwards to attain. It was Rosecrans' skill and genius that maneuvered the enemy out of Chattanooga and gave the Army of the Cumberland a position at Chickamauga that enabled him to hold at bay Bragg's army, re-enforced by one of the best corps from the rebel army on the Potomac.

"Mr. Speaker, there was a day in the nation's peril when good Abraham Lincoln thought he ought to send the thanks of a nation to Gen. Rosecrans and the officers and men of his command for their great services in the field." Gen. David B. Henderson, of Iowa, who left a leg on the battlefield, electrified the House by his appeal in behalf of his old commander. In the course of his remarks he said: "As a member of the Army of the Tennessee, I fol- lowed both Grant and Rosecrans. I fought under Rosecrans at Corinth. I was with him in that battle, and he was the only general I ever saw closer to the enemy than we were who fought in the front, for in that great battle he dashed in front of our lines when the flower of Price's army was pouring death and destruction into our ranks. The bullets had carried off his hat, his hair was floating in the wind, and pro- tected by the God of battle, he passed along the line and shouted, 'Soldiers, stand by your flag and coun- try!' We obeyed his orders. We crushed Price's army, and gave the country the great triumph of the battle of Corinth. Gen. Rosecrans was the central, the leading and the victorious spirit." Gen.

He decoyed the army of Price on to the spot where he designed to fight the battle and the result was that he was vic- torious, and captured parts of sixty-nine different com- mands serving under Price and Van Dorn and the other Confederate commanders. In that important battle he saved the cause of the Union in the South- west. Rosecrans was a splendid soldier, a valuable officer and is now an honored citizen." Here is the manner in which he impressed the cor- respondent of the "Cincinnati Commercial," "W. D. B.", who was with him in the three months' campaign with the old 14th Army Corps, that terminated with the brilliant victory of Stone River. "Industry was one of the most valuable qualities of Gen. Rosecrans," wrote this correspondent. "Labor was a constitutional necessity with him. And he enjoyed a fine faculty for the disposition of military business - a faculty which rapidly improved with experience. He neither spared himself nor his subordinates. He insisted on being surrounded with active, rapid workers. He 'liked sandy fellows,' because they were 'quick and sharp.' He rarely found staff officers who could endure with him." And no wonder! The General was the first officer to begin work in the morning, and the last to leave off at night, never, so this same authority states, retiring before two o'clock in the morning, very often not until four, and sometimes not until broad daylight.

One more portraiture of Gen. Rosecrans, as he appeared to those who were associated with him when he commanded the 14th Army Corps may not be out of place here. "He had no taste for party politics," wrote Gen. Boynton, "having dismissed that subject until the rebellion should be crushed - a point upon which he expressed no doubts. And, indeed, he had never been a politician. Upon the general subject of slavery, he held the faith that had been proclaimed immemorially by his Church and by all nations which have pretended to civilization. * * * Upon belles lettres he opened a mine of rich lore, and charmed you, as well by the felicity of his illustrations, as by the pungent and comprehensive character of his criticism. It was not a little amusing to the author to read in a leading eastern journal, that in science and literature Rosecrans was probably the inferior of McClellan and Buell.

Geology and min- eralogy are specialties, and in those sciences he ranks among the most accomplished in the country." Let us add just one discordant note, penned by one who has gone to the other world. In Charles A. Dana's "Reminiscences," in the Feb- ruary number of "McClure's Magazine", there is a record of the impression Gen. Rosecrans made on Mr. Dana, who was with him in the Chickamauga campaign of 1863. Mr. Dana says of him: "While few persons exhibited more estimable social qualities, I have never seen a public man possessing talent with less administrative power, less clearness and steadiness in difficulty, and greater practical inca- pacity than Gen. Rosecrans. He had inventive fertility and knowledge, but he had no strength of will and no concentration of purpose. His mind scattered: there was no system in the use of his busy days and restless nights, no courage against individuals in his composition, and, with great love of command, he was a feeble commander. He was conscientious and honest, just as he was imperious and disputatious; always with a stray vein of caprice, and an overweening passion for the approbation of his personal friends and the public outside." It should be remembered that this estimate was made after Chickamauga; and that it is absolutely in contradiction of all other estimates made by those who had just as much, if not more, opportunity of study- ing the character of our hero.

Dana was a civilian and like many another in his day was ever ready to hastily criticize the warriors fighting the battles of their coun- try. As an offset to this opinion we need but place the kind words of such veterans, both of war and journalism, as Gen. Boynton, Col. Furay and Maj. Bickham. The "Ohio State Journal" said: "'Old Rosy' is dead. The hero of Stone River and Chickamauga, one of the few remaining commanders of the late war, has passed away. General William Starke Rosecrans died at his home near Los Angeles, Cal., yesterday morning, of the ailments consequent upon old age, in the 79th year of his age. "His war service embraced the command of the Army of the Mississippi, succeeding General Pope, the command of the Army of the Cumberland, with a campaign in West Virginia, his brilliant success at Carnifex Ferry sending him West. The battles of Stone River and Chickamauga were fought under his generalship, both engagements being among the blood- iest of the war. There was a disposition to censure Rosecrans for his conduct in the latter battle, but later developments justified the views of his friends at the time, that the Union forces had accomplished much, though at the expense of thousands of lives. But the gallant Rosecrans was hurt, not only by these misrep- resentations, but by the venom with which he was pursued.

This practically closed his military career, but he did not resign until after the close of the war. "With the flight of time, the severest censors of Rosecrans are willing to admit that he was as clever a strategist at Chickamauga as he was at Stone River, even though he had a largely reinforced enemy to meet. He was a great favorite with his men, and the boys who marched with him in the awful campaigns will hear of his death with unfeigned regret. He was a splendid fighter, possessed of a fine military mind and ample experience, but had a nervous temperament that at times unfortunately tended to obscure in the popular mind the brightness of his achievements on the field." The following estimate of Gen. Rosecrans appeared in the columns of the "Western Christian Advocate," a Methodist paper, whose editor, Dr. David H. Moore, was a soldier. It is entitled "Our 'Wreath of Roses.'" "There died last Friday, in Los Angeles, the ablest tactician among the great generals of the Civil War. An impartial study of the history of that immortal contest will show that in this respect no man, on either side, surpassed William Starke Rosecrans. Whitelaw Reid styles him the American Jomini. "Was there ever a better planned movement than that which resulted in the first fight 'above the clouds' where Rosecrans headed the 13th Indiana in a head- long charge that sent Pegram flying from Rich Moun- tain and Garrett from Laurel Hill?

Was there any other Union officer who outgeneraled Robert E. Lee? Yet when that incomparable Confederate leader undertook to win back West Virginia from our Wreath of Roses, capping the summit of Cheat Mountain, he was out- maneuvered at every point, his Kanawha division only escaping capture by the failure of Benham to obey Rosecrans' orders. Iuka and Corinth added new laurels to this Wreath, when Price and Van Dorn were compelled to acknowledge his victorious prow- ess. Had Phil Sheridan and not McCook commanded the pivot at Murfreesboro, there had hardly been a remnant of Bragg's army left. As it was, never was a battle-plan more speedily and successfully changed in the teeth of impending disaster. "The chess-board of the war has not witnessed more brilliant moves than those by which he maneuvered Bragg out of Tullahoma. Opinion will forever be divided on Chickamauga; but Chickamauga was fought for Chattanooga, and the prize was won. If there Rosecrans' military sun set, it bathed the heavens in its effulgence. "Three things are alleged to have blocked his way to the very front: his inability to select competent lieutenants; his kind-hearted reluctance to remove a commander whose weakness had been demonstrated; and his lack of tact in managing his superior officers.

HIS BRAVERY. Sheridan, in his "Personal Memoirs," writing of the battle of Stone River, tells this incident: "Gen. Rosecrans, with a part of his staff and a few soldiers, rode out on the rearranged line to superintend its formation and encourage the men, and in the prose- cution of these objects moved around the front of the column of attack within range of the batteries that were shelling us so viciously. As he passed to the open ground on my left, I joined him. The enemy seeing this mounted party, turned his guns upon it, and his accurate aim was soon rewarded, for a solid shot carried away the head of Col. Garesche, the chief of staff, and killed or wounded two or three orderlies. Garesch's appalling death stunned us all, and a mo- mentary expression of horror spread over Rosecrans' face' but at such time the importance of self-control was vital; and he pursued his course with an appear- ance (?) which, however, those immediately about him saw was assumed, for undoubtedly he felt most deeply the death of his friend and trusted staff officer."

In the latter particular they were all very fluent, with the exception of one trooper who was pushing at the wheel with one of the officers who was working hardest.

Then the silent soldier spoke: "Don't you know, you blame fools," he said, "that Gen. Rosecrans was pushing that wheel with me?" "LONG-LEGGED JIM." Another favorite yarn with Gen. Rosecrans was about a soldier known as "Long-legged Jim." He was a brave fellow but fearfully lazy.

Very soon bullets were heard whistling through the branches of the trees and Jim, grabbing his gun, started after his companions, who by this time had come out in the clearing, and to avoid the deep dust of the road were marching along close to a rail fence.

Cap., do you call this 'walking'?" answered Jim, as he ran by at double-quick. "WIDOW GLENN'S HOUSE." This is the famous spot, where Rosecrans held his last council of war before the historic 20th day of September, 1863. Here is a description of that scene from the pen of Capt. W. C. Margedant: "Widow Glenn's log house was, like all the houses of that kind, provided with a large fire-place, in which a bright fire was burning - perhaps the only fire within 15 square miles, on account of the order given not to light fires on that night for any purpose. The remains of a candle were stuck into a reversed bayo- net, lighting up dimly the battle map, which was spread out upon a cartridge box. The fire in the large chimney place flared up from time to time, illuminating the faces of those who took part in the council of war.

Description An account of the resource [page 73] [corresponds to page 69 of Major-General William Stark Rosecrans: hero of Iuka, Corinth and Stone River, and Father of the Army of the Cumberland] "There was Major-General Rosecrans, sitting, in full uniform and sword, on the edge of a rustic bed frame, bending toward the center of the scantily furnished room, listening and sometimes talking to General Thomas, who sat near the fire, occuping the only chair which had been left by the widow Glenn. There were other generals, commanding corps, divisions and brigades, some sitting on the rough-hewn barren floor, with their backs against the walls, while others stood up. "It was a picture well worth painting - this the last council of war on the field of battle - the dim, flaring light, the faces of the men who directed the battles, the bright metallic shine of the swords and uniforms, when the fire flared up in the primitive chimney. Sometimes, when there was a hush of silence in the conversation, we could hear, far in the distance in the enemy's lines, the arrival of trains and moving of troops, reinforcements, soldiers from all parts of the Confederacy. It was not the usual preparations of a Saturday night for a peaceful Sunday; nay, it was for the most bloody fight ever fought, September 20, 1863. There were a few short hours' rest left after the hardships of the first day's battle, and during this last war council of the commanders, the soldiers rested on their arms, awaiting the break of day to renew their deadly conflict. "When the first rays of light colored the firmament in the East with a bright reddish hue, Gen. Garfield ordered the general staff officers to mount for the inspection of our lines.

It was one of those quiet, peaceful Sunday mornings enjoyed only in the country or the woods. There was no noise. Speaking was done in a whisper." Capt. Wm. C. Margedant, formerly Topographical Engineer on General Rosecrans' staff, contributed a very interesting series of letters to the Hamilton, O., 'News,' from which we quote the following remin- iscences: HIS INSPECTION. The manner of his inspection at once engendered a cordiality toward him which promised happy re- sults. The soldiers were satisfied that their comman- der took an interest in their welfare - a moralizing, agency which no capable general of volunteers can safely neglect. He examined the equipments of the men with exacting scrutiny. No trifling minutiae es- caped him. Everything to which a soldier was en- titled was important. A private without a canteen instantly evoked a volley of searching inquiries. "Where is your canteen?" "How did you lose it?" when? where?" "Why don't you get another?" To others, "You need shoes and you a knapsack." Sol- diers thus addressed were apt to frankly reply, some- times a whole company was laughing at the novelty of this keen inquisition. "Can't get shoes," said one; "required a canteen and could not get it," rejoined another. "Why?" quoth the general. "Go to your captain and demand what you need. Go to him every day until you get it. Bore him for it. Bore him in his quarters.

Bore him in bed. Bore him: bore him: bore him. Don't let him rest." And to the captains. "You bore your colonels; let the colonels bore the brigadiers; brigadiers bore their division generals; division generals bore their corps com- manders, and them bore me. I'll see, then, if you don't get what you want. Bore, bore, bore, until you get everything you are entitled to: and so on through an entire division." "That's the talk, boys," quoth a brawny fellow. "He'll do,,' said another; and the soldiers returned to their camp-fires and talked about "Rosy" just as those in Mississippi had talked who knew and loved him. THE "JACKASS BATTERY." Early in the campaign of West Virginia after the battle of Rich Mountain and the engagements of Philippi and Beverly, General Rosecrans conceived the plan of forming, what is now called, his famous "Jackass Battery." In taking up the march through the mountains they were almost daily compelled to face the enemy. The advancing column had to fight its way through the mountains, fight for the posses- ion of the woods, clear the valleys and sweep the hills. They moved forward under the greatest difficulties, and General Rosecrans designed a unique battery con- sisting of several hundred mules each carrying a cer- tain part of the cannons. The latter were very short, but had a very wide bore; the first mule carried the wheels, the second the lafette, the next the gun, and so on. The mountain roads were very narrow, often Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 75) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/17e9780c0165708c3df33ce0fd7bd179.jpg c5af5c4805a46a9ba796d55ceb71a818 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Whenever the army made a stop the "Mountain Howitzers" or "Jackass Battery" was brought forward and the can- non quickly put together and the firing could begin. The confederates could not stand these shells and al- ways gave the right of way. This "Jackass Battery" of General Rosecrans proved so effective that it was adopted through all the moun- tain regions. The English always on the alert for advantages, copied our custom and introduced it into their army. They mounted the gun on the mule, loaded the gun while it was on the mule, having for- gotten to note that the Americans placed the gun in proper position. They lighted the fuse of the loaded cannon, and the mule being frightened at the hissing sound suddenly wheeled around until the cannon faced the officers and the charge went off. History does not relate what became of the mule. THE WHEELING STOGIE. General Rosecrans was very fond of smoking cigars, but he was not particular of what weed the cigar was made. His favorite cigar was a Wheeling stoggie, a slim, irregular twist of tobacco, which would never get dry, and twisted around the finger. At that time this brand of cigars would sell for thirty-five cents a hundred. The general smoked these cigars, which were actually not of Havana aroma, when he rode at the head of the army through the mountain regions of West Virginia. The staff officers always tried to keep on the wind side of the general, so as to give the rising smoke, Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 76) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/f49a52ffa95f81a2417fdd3aa7d3e83c.jpg 9b435001fc0cbefb7c40c726f75e9a48 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It cannot be claimed that the general kept all of his treasure to himself. Cigars were at that time, in the mountains of Virginia, considered quite as much a boon as a white paper shirt collar was. On the contrary, whenever an officer rode to the front to make a report or to receive an order, the general would sink his hands into his well-filled pock- ets and taking therefrom a cigar he would address the officer as follows: "Have a cigar, sir." I remember that on a certain day, one of the rough and ready colonels of a regiment, whose name I have forgotten, rode up on the windy side of the general. As usual the first thing the general said, "colonel, have a cigar?" The colonel rose to his full height in his saddle and sternly looking at the general said: "General, you are my superior officer, but d--n your cigars," and rode away. The general and his staff officer looked upon this as quite a joke, and it was not long before this anecdote was related to and by every man in the ranks. THE GENERAL AND THE CAPTAIN. When General Rosecrans rode out to review the troops, there was usually something of a pleasant as well as instructive character going on. Upon his ap- pearance the welkin usually rang with the hearty cheers of the troops. When dressed in line the gen- eral occasionally passed along the front, scanning each man closely, noticing in an instant anything out of place in his dress. He always kept a sharp lookout Title A name given to the resource Major-General William Stark Rosecrans (p. 77) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/12049bb5f602aa053b968c3602b9a322.jpg 7566561c70f3ff7f1c8419d22e8329d5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

At one review he gave a forcible illustration of his ideas on the subject. He noticed a private whose knapsack was very much awry, and drew him from the ranks, calling at the same time for his captain, who at once approached. "Captain, I am sorry to see you don't know how to strap a knapsack on a soldier's back." "But I didn't do it, general." "Oh, you didn't? Well, hereafter you had better do it yourself, or see that it is done correctly by the private. I have nothing more to say to him. I shall hold you responsible sir, for the appearance of your men." "But I can't make them attend to these matters," said the officer. "Then if you can't you had better leave the service." Upon another occasion, General Rosecrans noticed a private without a canteen, but otherwise quite neatly arrayed. "Ah, here's a good soldier; all right, first rate, with one little exception. Good cloth and good arms; he marches and he drills and fights and eats. But he don't drink. That's queer; and I fear he won't hold out a pinch. March all day in the heat and dust, yet don't want to drink water. Rather afraid of a break-down here. Better have the canteens, boys, and well-filled, too." And he passed on, leav- ing a lesson and a smile.

CONCLUSION. The great old hero is dead, - the last of Ohio's grand quartet, Grant and Sherman, Sheridan and Rosecrans. As soldier, statesman and citizen, in whatever light he be regarded, the nobility of his character stands out, worthy of all praise and honor. Faith and justice, love of God and country were his ideals and he lived up to them to the last. "Glory, not grief, our theme to-day! The record of his life to sing Who brought to clothe our common clay The royal mantle of a king." The deeds of the hero of Rich Hill, Carnifex Ferry, Iuka, Corinth, Stone River and Chickamauga will always brighten the pages of our country's history; and his life will ever stand forth in that same history as a bright, shining example of a loyal Catholic, whose eminence in the affairs of the nation did not lessen his faith, and whose faith did but increase and glorify his patriotism. Peace to his ashes, and gentle, eternal rest to his great soul!

Luthi (Juniors) We of the Junior Class have looked into the Crystal Ball and have forseen the future of the Senior Class. First, we see Charles Clifton Bricker. He is running for Governor this year and is sure to get it. Since his graduation from high school, he has received a large sum of money from his four Dairy farms and is married to a beautiful red head. He has twelve children and feeds them off his cows. On the side he privately owns the Detroit Tigers. Doc says he is very happy and is in good health. Here comes Arthur Byrd. Since his joining the Navy he has really come up in life. He is now an Admiral and expects every- one to call him "Admiral Byrd." Art and his lovely blond wife are very happy with their four little Sailors. Then there is the GREATEST TRACK STAR IN AMERICA, Anthony Danna. We have all read about him in the paper and his many write ups in "Life Magazine." Anthony owns Santa Anita race- track. He is now married and calls his wife "CHILIBEAN." They have no children. Then we see George Richard DeVore Jr. Although his high school romances were few, his college ones were many. Dick ended up with a five foot blue eyed blond. He owns four Funeral Homes in Ohio and the largest Funeral home in the U.S This is located in Chicago, where he and his wife live. On the side he is noted for owning the "Boston Red Socks" and his throughbred horses which he keeps on his horse farm. Dick says "I an very happy." Here is Harold Ernest Farris. He is married as all of you know, to Jane Alson and his family population consists of three boys, two girls and twenty four throughbread dogs. Harold owns "Cob and Sons" movie studio in Hollywood. Jane has quit her job as an actress to be a mother for her children. Now we see Mrs. William Sheward, formally Miss Lela Diehl. they are now living near Long Beach California. Mrs. Sheward is the proud mother of fourteen children and has been "The Mother Of The Year" for six consective years. She also belongs to all the clubs at Long Beach and is president of "Mothers Of America." Her husband "Bill" as we all know him, is the private owner of the "GALENA BRICK CO." He makes frequent trips back to Galena to see how his business is get- ting along. Lola is very happy nad she says that she misses her good old times at Galena High School. Next we see Mary Ann Mays, who as you all suspected is the head Nurse at "White Cross Hospital." Mary Ann is not yet married but has her eyes on a cute surgeon. Mary Ann soon expects to graduate from school and become an Air Line Hostess Cont. on next page http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/d0d15009b586348fbdb433a82d40d61a.jpg ab4187208bdfd326fcc37811068576d2 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Lines, she also says that she enjoys her work very well but loves to come back to Galena High to recall old memories. Here comes that little redhead, I don't need to mention any name as I know that you will know her as Ruth Miesse. After graduation from Galena High, she continued her work with the Telephone company and later on, became so interested with it that she bought out Bell Telephone Co. and is progressing very well. Ruth is not yet married but has her eyes on a cute Aviator down at Tampa, Florida. Now for that tall, dark haired girl of the class of 47. If you haven't guessed her by now I'll tell you. Miss Bonnie Jean Watts. Dimples , as she was known in the good old days, is now one of the most popular actresses in Hollywood. She is not married but has all the male actors crazy about her. Up to date she has been proposed to 200 times. Bonnie is a man hater. Oh, it's just like them; ------- speak of one twin and here comes the other. We know her as Jackie Watts, but her present friends know her as Mrs. Claude Fuller. she has one child, a darling little boy, whom they call Claude Jr. Mrs. fuller is very active in the business world and her husband, Claude, owns what was formerly "Jefferies" and "Curtis Wright." they are very happy on their farm. Jacque Tilley, our mischief-man, has turned out to be an inventor and artist. In addition to this, he also appears on the radio, in a weekly program of his own, called "Think You Know Everything?"-----Listen to this: He is very happy as a bachelor and intends to stay that way. We see Byron Hoke as the head coach of Yale's famous basketball squad. His wife, Jame Adams, has quit her movie career to be a housewife and mother for their twelve children. Ant that's another story, their children -----five of them came along at once, so that makes a fine basketball team for Coach Hoke. Bob Smith has realized his ambition to be a teacher, and he has advanced to the position of superintendent of schools in New York State. He and Elsie live in an eleven-room flat on top of the Empire State Building. They have no children, but instead, they have three cats and five dogs. This is what we have seen in the Crystal Ball and have pre- dicted as the future of each member of the Senior Class of 1947.

The game was well played on the part of both teams and for a first game of the season, it was an unusual exhibition of fine basketball. The final score found Galena in front 44-33. Bricker was leading scorer of the game with 14 points. Coach Baird's boys from Brown were our next opponents. The end of the first quarter saw Galena leading by a close score of 11-10, but soon the boys shifted into high gear and the game ended 54-28, in favor of our Indians. Hoke scored 22 for Galena. Galena played host to the Reds of Centerburg for their third victory. last season, Galena split a double bill with Centerburg, but revenge was sweet and the boys slipped in the overtime to win 57-21. Hoke scored 25, DeBore 11 and Farris 10 in this scoring spree. Our next opponents were the Bellpoint boys. We gained re- venge again for a one-point loss of last season, by piling up a 56-21 win. DeVore was the big offensive gun in this one, as he made nine fields goals and five charity tosses for a total of 23 points. Coach Lindamoods Radnor team was the next to fall prey to the Indians. Our boys stepped to a 33 to 12 lead before shift- ing defenses for experimentation purposes. This change did not pan out so well but a 41-24 final score was convincing enough. DeVore led with 18 while Bricker and Hoke scored 11 and 10. A scrappy Orange team gave our boys their first hard game of the season but their fighting spirit was not enough. Galena led by 3 points at the end of the first period and slowly in- creased this lead. At one time the Indians led 43-27, but Orange made a final rally to bring the margin back to 11 points as the final score stood at 44-33. Hoke led Galena with 17 points while DeVore rolled in 12 points. Our boys played the Sunbury Wildcats on the Otterbein College Floor and suffered defeat in a thrilling game in which the lead changed hands several times. When the final gun bark- ed Sunbury led 32-31. Hoke scored 16 and Bricker 9 in this game. This was our first defe4at and left us a record of six wins and one loss.

DeVore scored all of 36 points while Bricker made half that, which was no little amount. Galena then journeyed to Cardington to play the '46 Dis- trict Runners-Up team. they proved to be no match for the Galena five and went down in defeat with a final score of 54- 33. Hoke rolled in 19 and Bricker chalked up 13 in the fray. Ashley was our next victim and we took them on their home floor. The game was hard fought and fairly even until Galena rolled to a big margin in the last period. Final score was 59- 33. Hoke scored 20 and Bill Smith dumped in 14 counters. Columbus Rosary, the team which later this season won the Central District Championship and knocked the highly publicized Frazeysburg, (until then the only undefeated team in the state) from the Regional tournament, was our next opponent. Galena led 26-23 at the half, but the height of Dick Farsons, great Columbus leading scorer, was too much for the boys and we lost our second by a score of 45-40. DeVore led for Galena with 17 points. Ostrander, which before playing Galena was the only re- maining undefeated five in the country, proved to be a tough one to crack. The first half they threw an offense at our boys that would have scared many teams out and Ostrander led 20-13, at halftime. Galena brought on a new defense for the second half and Bricker and Hoke began to strip the long ones. Galena scored 9-0 in the third period. Winston of Ostrander then cut loose and put his team in the lead by 2 points, in the final 4 minutes of play. Hoke then dropped in his fifth consective free throw and followed it up with a two pointer which put Galena ahead 32-31. The element of Science then took over in the form of a two minutes stall by the Indians, which was a fine exhibition of ball handling. Hoke led the scoring with 17 and Bricker scored 12. Galena's return game with Centerburg proved to be another easy one. Bricker did some fancy shooting which relieved the monotony of the game. He and Hoke each scored 15 and DeVore tramped on their heels with 14 for the victorious Indians. The Berlin Bears gave us a rough chase, galena dominated the first half and led 20-10 at the end of it, but the teams http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/d236c9bcbb709bf91ef1bd1f3dc4c71c.jpg e655289c9e9c18dce8b1af2939e49947 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Hoke, DeVore and Bricker scored 11-10-8, respectively. South High Reserves were next in line. They led Galena throughout the game until in the last quarter, the Indians sounded the war cry and routed the Bulldoge with a score of 37- 27. DeVore scored 12 and Bricker 10 for the victors. Marengo of Morrow County were hosts to Galena and they didn't treat our boys very well. Marengo was hotter than that place could possibly be, for Galena's 54 pojnts weren't enough. Marengo rolled in 63. Hoke scored 17 and Bricker 16 in Galena's loosing efforts. Once again Galena wiped the humiliation of defeat from their minds by throwing the overdrive, this time at the ex- pense of Powell. Our boys rolled up 91 point to win over Powell, 91-39. Hoke scored 40 and DeVore 35. Next on the Warpath came Hyatts, which Galena downed with a score of 63-32. Gambier journeyed to Galena for a return game. Although they later won their county's tournament, the Galena team proved their superiority a second time with a 51-45 score. Hoke, DeVore, and Farris led Galena's offense with 19-14-10 pt. Galena wound up their seasons league play with an impress- ive victory over the Harlem boys from Center Village. Both Bricker and DeVore did some fine shooting and Jacque Tilley's long one's took the eyes of the spectators. Final score was DeVore 18 and Bricker 16. These games ended season play and left Galena with a 10 won, 1 lost record for League play and a 17 won, 3 lost re- cored for all games. Sunbury, Ostrander, Galena shared the league title as each had suffered only one defeat. Tournament play saw Galena down Bellpoint by a 53-30 score. Our boys played the cleanest game of the season, committing only seven personal fouls in the game. Hoke scored 16, DeVore 12, Smith 10, Bricker 9. Our next tournament game was with Powell. This time Powell showed a spirited will to win and Holly's 21 points kept the http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/86af736ec5e9f4a0843fd216213909c9.jpg 38be2a244c83a0be30a93d6876ddd592 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

DeVore and Bricker were high scores with 23-21. The Sunbury Wildcats again proved to be the Jinx, by de- feating Galena 43-35. The game, however, was not an easy one for Sunbury. The eight point margin was made when Galena at- tempted to break up a stall in the final few seconds of play. Up to that point it was a nip and tuck affair with Sunbury usually in the lead by a point or two. Galena loss to Sunbury ruined the Indians chance to win the Championship trophy, but the consolation winner goes to the District tournaments and wins a trophy also. Knowing this our boys dug in and defeated Harlem for that honor. This game end- ed 44-26. The boys were off in shooting, but their defensive play was too good for the boys from Center. For District tournament play Galena drew Johnsville of Morrow county. They proved to be an easy victim, as Galena won easily. Final score was 54-33. Hoke led with 19 points while Bricker marked up 14. Plain City knocked Galena from the District tournament in a thrilling and interesting game. Plan City led 9-0 at the start, but Galena fought back and in the third period tied the score at 23-23. Plain City's height was too much however, and they pushed ahead to win 37-36. The Plain City team beat the Worthington team by an 18 point margin, won the District Cham- pionship and was one of the eight final tourney teams in the state before they were beaten. There's no shame to being beat- en by a good team. This ended the basketball season of 46-47 for the Galena Indians. Final record was 21 wins against 5 defeats, a record for which we can be very proud. Hoke's 40 points in the Powell game set a new all time scor- ing record for a single game in Delaware county. DeVore's 35 scores in this same game also beat the old record of 32 points made by Orahood of Ostrander in a previous season. Hoke's 192 points in league play led the county and DeVore's 149 was a close third to Winston's 153 which was second. http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/973a65a43479ae4eaeec71b6284c832e.jpg 32e92becfd239601ad40eeac157680d4 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Out of the four- teen games played they won twelve. They won the county champion- ship after defeating Orange, Sunbury, and Radnor, in the tournament. In the District, Galena met Cardington, the Champions of Morrow county. In the fifth inning, Arthur Byrd, who had previously driven in the first two runs with a single to center field, connected with a double to right field scor- ing two more runs which cinch- ed the game for Galena. The following day Galena play- ed Hamilton Township, the champions of Franklin County. Doc Bricker, who was injured the day before in the game with Cardington, was unable to participate in this game. This proved to be a great handicap. The result was a victory for Hamilton with the score 2-1. The following list consists of the players and their pos- itions: H. Farris, C - B. Hoke, P and S.S. D.

But a book of this kind would not be complete did it not contain a few, at least, of the most important facts and events of the history of the otwn its pages were intended to por- tray, for it is but natural that the future of a town is to be judged somewhat by the past. Sunbury was laid out by William and Lawrence Meyers, the original plat bearing the date of November 8, 1816. About a year before this Mr. Whitmore opened the first store. He occupied a amall brick house now the site of Joel Letts' residence on the south-west corner of the square. He was succeeded in the centerprise by Ben- jamin Webb, who occupied a store onthe corner of Col- umbus and Granville streets. A third store was opened by Stephen R. Bennett. Following close on these enter- prises was the building of a tavern by Mr Rodgers. In 1820, the stage lines bringing more trade ot town. Law- rence Meyers put up a grand hotel, Now occupied as a residence by J. D. Skeels.

The first tailor was Haultz Evans, who came in 1828. The first schoolhouse was built in 1831 on the south-cast corner of the public square. Besides serv- ing the purpose for which it was erected, it was also used by the early religious organizations as a place of worship. A saw-mill, tannery and distillery were early industries. In 1865 a stock company was formed for the manufacture of a general line of furniture. In 1868 the town hall was built, the money being raised by popular subscriptions. The third story of the hall was built by the Free and Accepted Masons, who use it yet for lodge purposes. In October, 1872, the Farmers' Bank was organized. Further mention of it is made under the head of Financial Institutions. Thus the town grew, new enterprises being added from time to time, and new citizen coming into it. There are institutions and busi- ness enterprises that we notice separately, which have done much to make Sunbury what it is: one of the best residence and business towns in central Ohio. The foregoing shows what Sunbury has been in the past and what it is now. We have every reason to be- lieve that it has a very prosperous future before it. Its location, natural resources, railroad facilities, healthful climate, etc., are the things upon which we base our pre- diction. The town has maintained a steady growth and improvement during the past, and we may confidently expect that it will continue to do so. The citizens are full of enterprise and business and they will keep things moving. What is now needed is not that our business men be more active and energetic, but that their number be added to with men who have not only the capital, but the ability and energy as well, who will come here and establish industries that will pay large dividends on the investments, and also give employment to men with fam- ilies, who will come here to live. There are many Title A name given to the resource Picturesque Sunbury (p. 10) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/252f850e491ee968e4f7211cc8d66426.jpg c24dafee129d2bbba9e94fd8ba405fab Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

There is every probability that an electric road will soon be built through Sunbury, connecting the county seats of Delaware and Licking. Such a line would very materially increase our trade, opening up territory whose inhabitants now go to other markets because of inad- equate means of travel. In the years to come, Sunbury will gradually but surely grow. The gradual, steady improvement now being made will continue. Everything is favorable to such growth and improvement. The town is now and always will be a model residence and business place. We welcome to our midst all who would better their con- dition financially, socially, morally or intellectually. Resources and Facilities. _____ Sunbury is situated near the center of the eastern part of Delaware county. The site seems to have been admirably chosen for the future prospects of the village, situated as it is near the conjuction of three counties, Delaware, Licking and Knox, midway between Mt Ver- non and Columbus, on the Mt Vernon and Columbus road, which was for years the only thoroughfare in the central part of the state between the north and south, and gave rise to a great deal of traffic through, and no little profit to, Sunbury as a stage station. It was reas- onable to suppose, therefore, that with such natural ad- vantages to attract enterprising men, the newly formed village moght grow to considerable size, and attract to itself that part of the three counties which was bo re- mote from any town of considerable size.

Surrounding the town in every direction is land that for many agricultural purposes is surpassed nowhere in the state. The land is especially adapted to the raising of grain and stock. The most of it is available as there are no large swamps or bogs, and few barren hills. The surrounding country is gently undulating. The drainage is good and there are few pieces of land within many miles that may not be well drained. We are located between the Big Walnut river on the ease and Prarie Run and Little Walnut on the west. In the spring and summer season, one standing on any eminence near the town, could behold as beautiful country as God ever created. Besides being adapted to the raising of grain and live stock it is also suitable for fruits and verge- tables, and accordingly considerable attention is paid to this latter industry. All kinds of fruit and vegetables that can be raised anywhere in Ohio, can be produced in the region around Sunbury. Along the banks of the Big Walnut, for several miles, may be found millions of perches of the best stone for building purposes that can be found in the state. The quarry industry has been given some attention, and thousands of carload of stone have been gotten out and shipped to many points in the state. But this industry has never been thoroughly developed. If more men of capital and enterprise would open up quarries and put in the necessary machinery, not only would it be the best and most profitable investment of their money that could be made, but it would give employment to hundreds of men. The Sunbury blue stone will always find a market, for the reason that it can always be used for any purpose that stone is used for. Plenty of the best timber is to be found near the town. Oak, hickory, beech, maple and elm are the principal species. This timber is easily gotten out and always finds a good market.

There is still room, how- ever, for others to go into the business and make money out of it. In speaking of advantages in the way of agriculture we should not forget that there is in Sunbury one of the best creameries in the state. One of the principal pro- ducts of the farmer is milk which he brings to the creamery to be made into butter that sells in the markets for higher than the Elgin prices. The farmers make more money out of this branch of agriculture that any other, and if there is anyone who wishes to improve his condition, we could give him no better advice than to come to Sunbury, purchase cows and patronize the cream- ery. No better place could be found for the location of a factory that Sunbury. As has been said we have plenty of stone, plenty of timber, plenty of farm products, and we also have plenty of labor. Our shipping facilities are agood. We are situated on the C. A. & C. Ry., which is a direct ine to Cleveland, Akron, Mt Vernon and Colum- bus. The company has always been very considerate in fixing its freight rates, and the rates are as low as are consistent with good services. The water supply of Sun- bury is the best. There are many good locations for a factory. Any manufacturing concern which would de- sire to locate here would meet with the encouragement of every citizens. Taking everything into consideration, there is no better place for the establishment of a factory than Sunbury. As a residence town Sunbury is equal to any other. We have no saloons, no dives or questionable resorts. The tone of he society of the village is moral and elevat- ing. Religion and morality are encouraged. Schools and churches are well maintained. Everything that is desirable as a residence place is found in Sunbury.

The school building is a fine two-story brick, erected in 1878. It is situated on a slight elevation at the north end of Vernon street. The building is well ventilated and lighted, and is one of the finest in the county. The grounds are two acres in extent and are nicely planted in shade trees. From the upper story and belfry a fine view of the town and surrounding country can be had. It has lately been repaired and repainted and furnished with new desks, slate blackboards and a large amount of modern apparatus of various kinds, and the latest maps.

Kimball are the stockholders. SUNBURY BUILDING & LOAN CO. The Sunbury Building & Loan Co. was incorporated in April, 1896. with a capital stock of $200,000. This company was organized for the purpose of aiding the citizens of Sunbury to build homes and improve their property, also to afford a means of saving money. The company will take care of your money, and pay you a good interest on it. You can borrow of the company, build yourself a house, and thus stop paying rent. We regard this as one of our greatest of institutions. MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE CO. The Delaware County Farmers' Mutual Fire Insur- ance Co. was incorporated Sept. 4, 1877.

Feb. 6, 1888 a meeting of the citizens of Sunbury was held for the purpose of establishing monthly stock sales. Officers were elected, money raised, and the sale advertised. The first sale was held March 2, 1888. These sales have been held the first Friday in every month since then. People have attended from all over the country. All kinds of live stock meets with ready sale on these occasions, and buyers are always here. No one thing has helped the business of Sunbury more than the stock sales. The merchants offer special bar- gains on these days, and in consequence are kept busy all day. On sale day the town has much the appearance of a county fair. These sales will be kept up regularly as they have been in the past. CHURCHES. The religious denominations in Sunbury are the Baptist and the Methodist. These two societies have flourished since early in the history of the town. As early as 1820 societies w3ere formed for the dissemination of christian doctrines. There is also a Christian church at Tahway, about a mile and a half east of town, and there are many church people here who hold membership elsewhere. The churches work in harmony for the good of all, and any religious movement receives the hearty support of all the people. ORGANIZATIONS. In secret societies we have the following: Sparrow Lodge, No 400, F. & A. M.; Columbia Chapter, No. 33, O. E. S.;Sunbury Lodge, No. 231, K. of P.

HOMESTEAD STOCK FARM' The Homestead Stock Farm McPerfect, proprietor, is located one and one-half miles north-east of Sunbury. Mr. Perfect has here fitted up everything necessary for the keeping and training of horses. He is the owner of the noted stallions McGuire, 2:29 1/2, No. 21676, and Homestead, 2:25. Mr Perfect has a good half-mile track on his farm, and once a year conducts a day of races, which are well attended, and at which a number of the best horses show their speed. A COMMERCIAL CENTER. As a commercial center Sunbury finds no superior in any town of its size. There is a larger amount of busi- ness transacted here than there is done in many towns that have twice the population. This is true both of the local and foreign trade. Our merchants, business and professional men are prosperous. We have rarely had a business failure. While those who are here are well qualified to conduct the various branches of business, there is yet room in many lines for energetic, capable men. As a shipping point Sunbury is among the leaders. Hay, grain, live stock and country produce are the prisn cipal articles of export, and the reports of our railway agent indicate that in this respect we are ahead of very many larger stations. There are a number of men who make it their business to buy and ship these articles, and Whenever one has anything to sell, it meets with a ready market at good prices.
