who adopted Indian tactics, Alexandria
would have been seized. While in this
city Braddock devised, in a council of Co.
lonial Governors, a plan for the taxation
of the colonies by Parliament, which twenty
years later caused the American Reyolu-
ton.
The town grew up amid restrictions on
commerce and fetters on manufactures, but
the colonists in Alexandria, like Anglo
Saxons everywhere, had a profound re-
speet for law. They submitted to these re-
strictions because they were accustomed
to them. and as they were pressed by
French power and in constant dread of the
Indians who still fingered near, they ex-
pected British aid, but they thought the
profits which England made by monopoly
of their trade was a high price to pay for
such assistance. But when Braddock came
and the British troops, instead OF protect
ing the colonists had been compelled to
rely on the colonial troops to protect them
the feeling changed. Braddock had come
and gone, the town folk and country peo-
pie having relied upon themselves for de-
fence against the Indians and French, felt
able, in just cause. to meet the world in
arms on their own soil. Hence these re-
strictions on navigation and manufactures
annoyed them
Alexandria Defics England.
The stamp act was to be put into opera
ton on November /, 1Te5. Alexandria was
then represented in the House OF Bur-
! gesses by George Johnson. He was one
of the town trustees, and at his home on
the corner OF Prince and Lee Streets he
prepared resolutions for nuIlifying that
act of Parliament. II is the tradition os
his family that the habitual gravity of his
| demeanor seemed, after the news of the
stamp act reached Alexandria, to grow
] yet more intense, and after a lcng exam
| ination of the English law he wrote the
| resolutions which Patrick Henry shortly
! afterward introduced in the House OF
| Burgesses. 1t Is said that on completing

In October, 1869, a colonial land patent
was laid by Capt Robert Howsen. extending
along the river from Indian Cabin creek
(now Hunting Creek) to a line opposite My
Lords Island, now Anaiostan Island,
comprising most of the land now included
in the city and county of Alexandria. This
land was purchased by John Alexander in
November, 1863 and in 1877 it was occu-
pied by settlers.
The first known permanent settlement
was made on Pearsons Island, now
Dangerield's Island, in 1886, by ST.

exander family. Another settlement soon
followed On what is now known as Jones
