BENNINGTON HISTORY.

The CALIFORNIAN has received the
following from Maj. A. B. Valentine
of Bennington:
The late successful dedication Of
the Bennington battle monument so
fully reported in the press of the
country suggests statement as to
the inception of the enterprise as a
matter of historic interest.
While in 1853 an effort was made
to erect a monument to the memory
of the heroes of the Battle of Ben
nington, yet the idea of the present
structure first took definite shape in
1875, at meeting of the Reunion
Society of Vermont officers. On that
occasion the second toast at the
banquet suggested a centennial
Juhilation at Bennington in 1877"
and the speeches which followed, led
by the late ]. Halsey Cushman,
pledged the society to aid both cele-
bration and monument
The monument just dedicated was
the outgrowth of the centennial cele-
bration which followed, August 10th,
1877.
This fact Of history is not men
toned to deprive any person OF
credit due, though some of the state
ments going the rounds Of the press
call to mind the incident Of the seven
cities. which repudiated the strug-
Cling poet as a failure, but when
success was assured each claimed the
honor of being his birthplace.
