PREsTwoULD, Nov. 12, 1898
Mr.. EDITOR: In your article on Thomas
Thurston reference is made to the suppose
ton that his daughter was an ancestress OF
the Skipwith Coale who lived in Hartford dur.
ing the Revolution. From the enclosed re-
cord. taken from the Friends Meeting Re
cords of West River, can be traced the direct
line of the said Skipwith Coale's maternal an
cestresses as far as 1913, which in DIR. Archer's
account was prior to the arrival of Thurston
in America. Skipwith Coale's mother was
Cassandra, daughter of Sir George and Lady
Bridget Skipwith. His father was Philip, an
officer in the British army and son of William
Coale, and his wife, Elizabeth, who was a
daughter of Philip Thomas There Is no
Thurston named as any of the feminine
branch, SO far back as the enclosed record
goes-161S.
The record is as follows:
William Coale, of Anne Arundel county,
in his will made Oct. 26th, 1913, mentions a
son William, by his first wife Hester; son
William, by his I'd wife, Hannah, and the
children of his 3D. wife, Elizabeth, who was a
daughter of Philip Thomas.
Philip I'd con of William and Elizabeth,
(Thomas) Coale, was an officer in the British
army, married April 9th, 1897, Cassandra,
Skipwith. They had son Skipwith, who
married Margaret Holland, and removed to
Baltimore county in 1882.
William Coale, died 1913, married Eliza
beth Thomas.
Their son Philip married Cassandra, daugh-
ter of Sir Geo. Skipwith, 1879.
Their son Skipwith married Margaret Hol-
land, and removed to Baltimore Co., 1872.
Skipwiths son, William, married Sarah
Webster, and removed to Hartford Co.
William, the second son Of Skipwith and
Margaret (Holland) Coale, married Sarah
Webster, settled in Hartford county, and has
numerous descendants in the neiShborhood
of Deer Creek, at the present day.
The above earlier records are taken from
the old West River Meeting House Records.
Respectfully,
Mrs. SKIPwIHH HOLLAND CoALE.

The Committee on Legislation of
the Maryland Road League has made
a report, which has been accepted by
the League, accompanying which
is the draft of road law which
will be submitted to the next Legisla-
latare.
The report suggests that the State
should create an engineering depart
ment, with State engineer at sal
AIRY of $1,000 a year, and place its SER
vices at the command of the various
counties, when desired by the coun-
ties, who are not to be compelled to
commit their roads to the charge of
the State ENGINEERS.
Regarding the administration of the
roads in the counties, the committee
considers it evident that since the
counties are to bear all the expenses
they must retain entire control The
system of administration by supervi-
sors is condemned, and it is recon-
mended thatit be abolished.
The finances and general control, in
the opinion of the committee, should
be left in the hands of the county
commissioners, but the report advis-
es that the administration of the roads
and bridges should be committed to a
county board to be appointed by the
county commissioners. Such q board.
it is suggested. should be, to a certain
extent, permanent; should consist OF
residents of the county and should
have the benefit of expert advice and
assistance.
1t is advised that each board shall
consist of three members, to be ap-
pointed for three years, one member
going out of office each year. They
would serve without pay, but liberal
provision would be made for their
expenses.
The committee deems it right that
the various county boards should be
authorized to call upon the State en-
cheering department for advice and
assistance without expense to them,
unless they desire surveys made or
such work done as would necessitate
additional expense to the department
In this way the boards would be
furnished with the best possible en-
gineering assistance without any cost
whatever. This system was adopted
in England under the highway act of
1862, and to its successful working the
committee attributes the excellent of
England's roads at the present day.
The report advises that the roads
should be kept in constant repair and
that county boards be encouraged to
employ working corps, which should
continually keep the roads in good
condition.
Since such a plan would require
money for its promotion, the COM
mittee recommends that the right of
farmers to work out" their road tax
es be abolished and that the county
boards be directed, under proper re-
strictions, to have themore important
work, such as construction and re-
construction, done by contract and be
authorized to contract for repairs with
the consent of the county commission
erS.

THE NEXT LEGISLATURE.

There is some speculation as to who
are likely to be made President of the
Senate and Speaker of the House of
Delegates, when the Legislature meets
in January next. The Eastern Shore
has had the honor of supplying Presi-
dents of the Senate during the last
two sessions, Messrs Brattan and
Lloyd, both able and impartial presi-
ding officers. The Eastern Shore
has still some very good material for
the same purpose, in the persons of
Senators John Walter Smith, of Wor-
cester; Levin L. Waters, of Somerset;
Joseph H. johnson, of Dorchester;
and E. Stanley Toadvin, of Wicomico
Senator Smith, especially, made him
self quite popular, at the last session,
by his earnest fight for free books in
our public schools. Senator Thomas
g. Hayes, of Baltimore city, whose
name is connected with the assess
ment bill passed by the Legislature in
1892, is also mentioned for President
of the Senate, but it is thought likely
that he will prefer to remain on the
floor to look after the new assessment
bill which will undoubtedly be intro
duced The name of Senator John
Hubner, of Baltimore county, is also
frequently mentioned for the honor
of presiding over the Senate.

The Democratic administration at Washing
ton and it's politics have been neither defeated
nor rebuked nor has there been any reversal
of the national verdict given a year ago in
favor of Mr.. Cleveland's financial and tariff
policies. Certainly no evidence is offered by
| the late elections that the people have repent
ed of their desire, recorded twice over at the
polls, first in 1890 and again in 1892, for &
| moderate and conservative reform of the
worse than war tariff rates imposed by the
Mckinley act. No sane man attributes the
prevailing business depression to Mr.. Cleye
lands tariff policy. because it has certainly
been brought about under the Mckinley tariff
| which is still in undisturbed operation.
The Democratic party has simply beer
warned that it must follow its great natona
| leader, sustain his administration and assis
him honestly, heartily and effectively to carry
| out the pledges which it gave to the countr.
| last year, and on the strength of which it was
| called to the control of the general govern
ment. The people have served notice on th'
Democratic leaders in Congress that if iii,
