Thomas here before 1690
Samuel Bayard, His relation to
Peter Stuyvesant—Currier notes
Hobart came from Norfolkshire—An
tills were also Knglish—Cowper
thwaits Weeks and Shoemaker notes.
The name of Thomas apears very
early in the history of this country
Nathaniel Thomas was the first of
whom there is any record. He came
to Virginia in the ship Memperance
in 1621. Robert and William came
to the same State in the ship America
fourteen years later, and another Wil
liam Thomas arrived in the same
vear. Southern branch of the fam
ily came from Wales about the mid
dle of the seventeenth century and
gettled in Maryland He was a
friend, and of much influence in the
colonies,
The first Thomas of whom there is
any record in New ngland was
named William. He came to this
country in 1630 and settled at Ply
mouth. Previous to 163, 28 members
of the Thomas family came to this
country. One, William, came in the
Mary Ann, another of the same name
was chosen assistant to Governor
Bradford in 1642. KKvan Thomas came
to Boston in 1635 as master of the
ship William and KFrancis.
A cruel fate was that of William
Thomas, another early settler, who,
in 1712, essayed to embark for Amer
ica from the city of Bristol. He had
large possessions, which he convert
ed into cash. This, together with the
clothing for himself and family, he
put on board the vessel. Before the

and his family found to their con
sternation that the vessel had set sail,
but was not yet out of sight. Pur
suit was made in a small eraft and
signals holsted, but to no response
The vessel was lost sight of, and the
family left destitute. They, however
obtained credit and came to this
country, landing in Philadelphia,
where they had the “mortification”
as it is set down in the records—of
seeing some of their goods in posses
sion and some of their wearing ap-|
parel upon the backs of those whoj
had purchased them from the dishon- |
est master of the vessel, They were
not able to recover anything. ,
Fortune, nowever, favored Willlam
Thomas in the country of his adop
tion, and he became a leader among
his people. He gave each of his fl\'P‘
sons and two daughters a farm and a
stone house upon the occasion of their |
marirages, He also erected a stone |
meeting house at his own expense
Although the congregation probably |
assisted him, Mr, Thomas himself |
worked in finishing the interior of{
the building. He made the pulpit out |
of a hollow gum tree, which was laid
on a platform. At this time “Elder |
Thomas,” as he was called, for he was |
often engaged in preaching, was near
ly 60 years of age. He always car
ried his gun and sword to meeting.
depositing them at the foot of the
puipit, it being the period of 4he
French and Indian wars,
Like Jacob of old, William Thomas
had the gift of foretelling his chil
drens’ fortune. Of his sons, he said
all but one would prove Christian
men, one would become a preacher
and one would go .astray and then
come to his end by violence-—all of
which predictions the future confirm
ed years after their father's dgath. |
The coat-of-armis of the family isi
argent, a chevron, sable between three |
ravens; crest with outspread wings. |
Different members of the family have‘
dieffrent crests, lambs and lions being |
favorite devices. :

the name are many, as 'l‘humqsnn,’

PARIS, May 24.—‘“While clothes are so |
expensive T am not going to indulge in the |
luxury of a new overcoat just bhecause a
fool shot a few holes in my old coat”
Premier Clemenceau is reported to have
said. |
The *“Tiger's” jacket and overcoat, both
showing bullet holes, were pieces of evi
dence thet had to be produced at the trial |
of his would-be murderer, Emile Cottin,
M. Clemenceau, however, happens to be
particularly fond of those garments, and
he asked M. Ignace, Under Seccretary of
State for War, to let him have them bacl
quickly. M. Ignace replied in tones of
gentle reproof that the articles were in
the handg of the jiudiciary and that under
the rules it would be qguite impossible to
part with them until the case was past
the appeal stage,
‘ Then M. Clemenceau, who is an enemy |
of red tape, did what in French is tl(‘»&
i.‘wrlhml as an ‘“efficacious act,” the nature
' of which is not specified but may be sur
im‘»‘vd. His garments came back the same

up or down? Will wages go up or down? Will
money be “easy’’ or scarce? Have nations heretofore faced
bankruptcy or have they repudiated their war debts?
Will there be a tremendous immigration to this country or
will there be emigration? Are you inclined to be stampeded
with fear of what will happen when peace is finally concluded

Woman Needs the Britannica
As Never Before
The war has changed the status of women indus
trially and politically. By the necessities of war women
were forced to take the places of men in our industries
and they successfully filled positions of great responsibility.
The mother must keep abreast of the great thoughts and
movements that are taking place throughout the world, that
are vitally affecting her. Woman today in her greater and
more important place in the world needs the Encyclopaedia
Britannica as never before—she needs it to teach her how to
fulfill her new status as a citizen—how to make her more
efficient in the business world and, as a mother, to make
herself broader and a bigger woman so she can bring her
children up according to the highest standards,
