And yet many of these patriotic people,
discouraged by the tardiness and narrowness
with which the State has put her hand to
the great wants Of agriculture, commerce
and education, have removed with their
wealth and enterprise to more promising
regions.
Many others still cling TO their sterile
fields, which, for. want of proper market
facilities, yield them poor return for the
"sweat of their face" and they cannot tcare.
because noble ancestry, in defence Of their
beloved State, once watered these fields with
blood, aud their bones now moulder beneath
this sterile but sacred soil And shall such
a people be driven from these halowed,
though dilapidhted homes of theirs, leaving
all they prize of ancestral valor and renown
in the hands of. strangers, and all because
Of tile short-sighted policy of a State TO
whose honor, dignity and glory they are as
.ardently devoted as were their patriot fathers
of revolutionary fames ask, shall this be
God forbid! Forbid it, We who have the
welfare of this people and the prosperity
and honor of the State committed to your
