IS FRIDAY AN UNLUcKY DAYg

From time immemorial Friday has been frowned upon
day of i'll omen And though this prejudice is less
prevalent than has been Of yore, when supers
ton had general sway yet there many even in this
matter-ofact age Of ours who would hesitate day
SO inauspicous to begin undertaking of mementous
import And how many brave mariners whose hearts
unquailng could meet the widest fury OF their ocean
home would blench to bend their sails on Friday
But to show with how much this feeling is ndulg
ed let examine the following imp ortant facts in con-
nexion with our new settlement and greatness
ton and We will see how little cause we Americans have
to dread the fatal day:
On Friday August 3D. 1892, Christopher Columbus
sailed on his great voyage Of discovery.
On Friday October H. 1892, he first discovered land
On Friday, January 4th 1493 he sailed his return
to Span which If he had not reached in safety the hap
py result would have been known which led to the
settlement Of this vast continent.
On Friday, March 10Th, l498 he arrived at Palas IN
safety. =
On Friday, November 22d 1493 he arrived at Hspan-
lola in his second voyage to America.
On Friday June 18th, 1494, he, Though unknown to
himself discovered the continent OF America.
On Friday, March 9th, 1496, Henry VII of England
gave to John Cabot his commission which led to the dis
covery Of North America This is the first American
State paper in England
On Friday, September 7th, 1866, Meenddex founded
ST. Augustine the oldest settlement in the United States
by more than forty years.
On Friday, November 10th, 1920 the May Flower with
the Pilgrims made the harbor Of Provncetown and on
the same day they signed that august compact the fore
runner Of our present glorious Constitution.
On Friday, December 22d, the Pilgrims made their
| final landing at Plymouth Rock
On Friday, February ed, George Washington, the ia
Their Of American freedom, was born
| On Friday, June 18th, Bunker Hill was seized and
| fortified.
On Friday, October It'll, 1777 the surrender Of Sara
toga was made, which had such power and influence in
inducing France to declare for our cause.
| On Friday September 3d. $780, the treason Of Arnold
was laid bare, which saved us from destruction.
On Friday October 10th, 1871, the surrender at York
town. the GROWING glory Of the American arms occurred
| On Friday July 9th, 1776, the motion in Congress
made by John Adams seconded by Richard Henry Lee,
that the United Colonies were and Of right ought to be-
/ free and independent.
Thus by numerous examples, we see that, however il
may be with other nations Americans need dread
to begin Friday any undertaking, however momenous
it may be: therefore shall continue to publish the
! Woousocka Patriot on Friday
