A FEW days ago the President and
several more nOtables assisted In the
ceremonies that dedicated o nonu-
meBt to Perpetuats the memories
Of the battle Of Bennington, VI,
Aug. IS, III. The hero Of that bat
Tie was General John Stark, and yea
General John Stark vas Q 'ssort
head" Early In the var Of the revo-
luton he had rendered valiant and
gallant service 10 his country, but
because his services, as he thought,
were not httIngly recognized" by
Congress, he resigned, went home,
and played the Achilles act-sulking
in his tent, vswing he would never
again lift . hand In defense Of his
country, even II the ding blasted
Britisbers desPoiled the whole coun-
try. But when Burgoyne came
down from the North on the way to
New York on q march similar TO the
one Sherman made through Georgia
to the Sea, the people Of New Hamp-
shire and Vermont looked 10 him for
protection. The old war horse prick
ed up his ears, shifted the air Of bat
tie from afaF, shod his horse, burn
ished M his spurs, drew forth his
trusty and slightly rusted saber, and
after brandishing Il three or four
times above his head, said In effect
that II they didn't succeed right there
In wipIng up the earth with the
enemy, Mollie Stark would be o
widow before shutdown. Well.
Molly Stark helped TO manor wo-
nlau-one OF the guns In that memoir
able battle, and she wasn't q widow
after that, either-At least for some
time. After that incident, In which
the British commander who was
mortally wounded, said the Ameri-
cans fought like fiends incarnate,
Congress done the fair thing by
General Stark, who ever afterward
served his country faithfully and
died happy. There IL q moral In
this, which IL well worth the consid-
Grafton Of our latter day "soreheads."
While there IL always some odium
attached to being . sorehead, Law or
custom does not make II imperative
that . man should remain one. II
IL possible, nay, Il Is easier TO redeem
ones fair fame by good acts, than to
remain In ones own quarters, silent,
