| FOURTH OF JULY,
BILL ARP TALKS OF THIS
CHEAT DAY,
AjhI States Facts Concerning; It
That We All Should Know —
The Famous Lee Family.
-—
I asked an intelligent young man
to-day about the Fourth of July
and what it meant, and he said :
-Our forefathers had a big fight
with old England and whip it,
after it was all.over the colonies
got together on the 4th of
’70, and formed a union and made
a declaration of independence.”
A great many young people have
an idea that this day celebrates
the whipping of the fight, and the
beginning of a new government.
This is a mistake, but it i > a very
reasonable supposition. 1 be day
of a great victory that closes a
war and secures peace and inde
pendence is a greater day than the
one on which it was declared.
“Let not him boast that putteth
his armor on like him who taketh
it off.” The surrender of Corn
wall is at Yorktown virtually closed
the war on the 19th day of Octo
her, 17*1, and the treaty of peace
was signed in Baris on the 30th
day of November, 1782. This I
treaty for the first time aeknowl-j
edged and established the inde
pendence of the United States, and j
the day it was signed should be
observed as a very notable day. be-1 J
The 4th of July was not the
ginning had been of the fighting war. for The colonies j
a year or
more all along the line. Bancroft!
says the battle of Lexington, which
was fought on the 18th of April,
1775, was the beginning of the rev-!
olution. The battle of Bu,lker j
Hill was fought in June, 1775 lhe ;
colonies had rebelled from Maine
to Georgia, and had organized for
resistance. Old North Carolina
held a secession meeting at Meek
lenburg in May, 1775, and passed a
declaration of independence, 1 he I
second continental congress met in
.
Bhiladelphia the 10th of May, ‘-H j
and issued $2,000,000 of continen
tal money for war purposes. Can
a la was invaded and Montix al was
taken in December, 1775. Our
fathers were getting along pretty
well with the war long before the
Itli of July, but the colonies were
fighting on tlieir own motion, and
had not cemented any settled
union. Some of them thought that
England .vould soon gel tired and
beg tlieir pardon and invite them
back, and perhaps they would go
back, but on the 7th of June, 1776.
Richard Henry Lee introduced
resolutions in tHe continental con
gress that cut thelastcord that
bound the colonies to Great Brit
ain. The resolutions were passed
and a committee appointed to draw
up a more formal declaration of
independence; and so it was done
and was reported to congress and
was passed on the 4th of July,
1776.
Jt is well for the children and
youth to understand these things.
so that when they are asked what
all this racket is about, and these
annual celebrations and fireworks,
they can answer.
Richard Henry Lee was the per
sonal friend of Washington, and
when Washington (lied Lee was
chosen to pronounce his eulogy,
and it was in that address that he
said of him : “First in war, first in
peace and first in the hearts ot his
countrymen.” Don't forget that,
Those Lees were terrible rebels.
When Cromwell was dictator
rebelled against, him and passed a
declaration of independence for
Virginia, and so Cromwell sent
over a fleet to subdue them, but
do it. a„.l I,a,I to reco;
nize their independence and make
a treaty with them. The Lees
were born to rule, and they have
1 been ruling for 150 years in this
! country. It is indeed a grand old
family.
, Henry Lee, a cousin of Richard's,
was the father of our Gen. Robert
p. lx*e. He was known during the
rebellion as Light Horse Harry.
^
General Washington loved and
CO urted the same girl, ' Miss Lucy
the “lowland beauty. ..
; GrvmeS,
ard i yH? ou t generaled the general
and history says that Washington
never wholly recovered from that
defeat.
Some years after he tried a wid
ow with'lteller luck. She had one
, 0 u, and that spu married and died.
, ; oavin w one daughter, and our Bob
' !llarri ed her.
1 he Lees all had personal pride
and pride of family. They scorned
to do a mean thing. Their self
respect wouldn't permit it. They
stood up and sat down and rode
j and walked with a princely digm
ty that commanded respect and
says in a recent letter that he nev
er saw General Lee take an un
graceful posture. No matter how
worn or vvearv, or sick or sad, his
bearing ”a was grace and dignity re
fined man with a great mind
and a "ood heart can’t help being
| dignified. His body partakes lie be
the nobility of his mind,
comes god ] ike . as was said of Dan
iel Webster. If a man’s body
t j, e temple of the living God,
I t |, e scriptures say, then it becomes
him to be dignified, graceful and
C3Urteous Some folks affect to
despise all this, but they do not;
they are fooling themselves.
Light Horse Harry was the most
dashing cavalry officer of the revo
i ut j on> and Washington depended
upon him as General Lee depend
ed upon Jeb Stuart in the late war.
He was* a devoted friend and a
magnanimous foe. After the war
he happened to be in Baltimore
where a mob had gathered to break
U p a newspaper and whip the
tor,a man who had been his
and he rushed to his rescue, and
got wounded in the fray, and was
j n j ure d internally and never re
covered from it. lie went to Cu
ba for his health, and came back
bv Cumberland island to rest for
awhile with General Green’s fami
| vg and , liere h c died and was bur
ied . (j eors i a was honored with
his bones. Bill Arp.

j NOTES FROM SPUING HILL.
Spring Hill, July 9. —We are
having fine rains at this time, and
j crops are looking fine, the corn
|long fields are heavy laden with larg
ears f corn, two or three to
I a stalk. Cotton lias grown and born
till we can't get through the fields.
I have counted as high as 240 tolls
,
and forms on one stalk and as
much ns>0 grown bolls:; it realy
looks like we will have to
down our old barns and build
greater ones. I contribute a great
deal of this to the Farmers' AUi
ance I believe they are on the
right track and that God will bless
them in their labors we find back
in all the history of the world that
so long as the children ot God
walked in obedience of His com
mandments that He blessed them,
and just as soon as they lose faith
in themselves their leaders and
their God that diverse curses come
upon them.
\\ e heard a most excellent ser
mon preached at Spring Hill Iasi
Sunday by Bro. Iluckaboe, on the
subject of education. He gave us
a thorough shaking up, which I
hope will result in a thorough

Considerable interest is mani¬
fested by the citizens of flourishing
Georgia counties in local fairs,
which may 1)3 held this fall, and
the proposition that several coun¬
ties put their exhibits together and
tints contribute to one fair, which
shall answer for all of them, .seems
to Do meeting with popular ap
proval. For in dance, the counties
of Cherokee, Milton and Forsyth
are working for a tri-county fair,
and three such prosperous eoun
li-—famed for tlieir minora
wealth and farm produets,co Lm
ing in this "way, will not f li
make a splendid show ing in a fair
which will attract general att(n
timi, and which wiii 0 ireneral
interest.—Ex.
