| bad been with a branch of the Mohawk
tribe, and had forgotten his mother tongue
though he remem bered his mother, whom
! in the joy of seeing her he addressed in the
Indian language. In the fall she and her
children reached Albany, escorted into that
city by detachment of troops under the
command of Colonel Ethan Allen. Here
Colonel Campbell awaited their arrival,
aud the trials of a two years captivity were
almost forgotten in the joy of restoration.
They remained there until peace was pro-
claimed, and the British driven out of the
country, lwhen they returned to Cherry
Valley, and literally began the world anew.
Their land had gone to waste, and was
covered with underbrush all beside was
destroyed, and with no shelter save a small
log cabin, hastily put up, they felt for
time that their lot had been a hard one.
But the consciousness of having performed
the duty of patriots sustained them under
misfortune. BY the close of the following
summer, a more comfortable loghouse was
erected on the ruins of their former resi-
dence, aud the farm began to assume the
aspect of cultivation. 1t was in this house
that General Washington was received and
entertained on his visit to Cherry Valley,
accompanied by General George Clinton
and o'her distinguished officers. 1t was on
this occasion that Mrs. Campbell presented
her sons to Washington, and told him she
would train them up to the service of their
country, should that country ever need
their service.
Once settled on the old homestead, Mrs.
Campbelfs trials and sufferngs were at an
end, and she was eminently blessed in all
things temporal, being permitted in old
age to around her large and prosper
Gus family. Her oldest son was tie Hon.
William Campbell, Surveyor g General of
the State of New loik. Her second son
James s. Campbell was for many years a
magistrate, and one of the judges of the
Court of Common Pleas, in Otsego, while
the youngest son Robert Campbell of
Cooperstown, an able and eminent lawyer,
enjoyed in q high degree the confidence of
the people of that county. Colonel Camp
bell after active life, died in 1924, at
the age of eighty-six. His wife lived, in
the enjoyment of almost uninterrupted
health, to the age of ninety three, and
died in 1S39-the last survivor of the Re-
evolutionary women in the region of the
headwaterS of the Susqhebanna.
Reader, this is but brief episode in the
history of an Irish heroine, one of the
pioneer mothers of the West. 1t is culled
from American. history, and is true in
every particular. There are many such.
In the local histories of the thirteen States
scores of Irish names appear previous 20

in after days. shed honor upon two lands.

\ MELoN-CHoLY STRUGGLE.-In New
York, the fruiterers have light handles by
which watermelols are carried. There are
some advantages in living in city. Now
here in DaDbury watermelon handle is
unknown, and the customer is obliged to
exercise all his wits i'll escOrting the deli
cious fluit home. The dealer puts a sheet
of paper about it, and passes it to the buy
er, who puts it under his arm and starts.
1t is nice place under The arm, for n
melon, aud the owner is inclined to wonder
why such fuss is made in carrying it.
There are two peculiarities about a melon
one is its tendency to swell, and the other
its tendency to slip. A watermelon which
can easily be held under the arm at the
start, So increases in dimensions that in the
length OF Il square it succeeds in straining
every cord III the arm to painful tension.
The party carrying it has, of course, the
other hand full of parcels. He now brings
the melon To the front, and hugs it to his
breast, very much as If it was a Struggling
baby. This is done to rest his arm, and
the melon being hugged tightly to the
chin, -he purpose would undoubtedly be
accompanied, were it not for that other
,endency-slipping. The melon shows an
inclination to slip from his arm and to slip
out of the paper. The farther he proceeds,
the more uneasy it becomes. 1t turns over.
Il slips under his arm and threatens 70 slide
down his back to the pavement. 1t pokes
him in the chin, and punches him in the
stomach. Not a single moment does it re-
main i'll position. 1t calls into active ser
vice every nuscle in his anatomy. 1t brings
he perspiI alton out on face and body. Ii
fills his breast with bitter thoughts. The
whole way is a battle. Every inch of the
distance is a hard, dlscouraging fight. He
reaches home aching in every limb, and
with sick feeling in lis heart that even
the happy, expectant looks of the family
cannot wholly remove. Then the wife cuts
open the melon and murmurs
.''Just as expected, green rs cucumber"
We talk about the last feather ON the
cam IFS hack. We ought to be ashamed Of
ourselves = D0DburU Ne7rs
