 Beaulieu by the Sea.
 From the very beginning the little colony of Georgia, founded by Ogie- thorpe, gave King George II great deal of trouble. Oslethorpe quarreled with his Secretary, Rev Charles Wes- ley. and this stated trouble which left no peace in the colony until the trus- tees surrendered their grant to the King and Georgia became a royal prov ince. Then James Habersham was made Secretary of the province, and, under his management. some semblance of order was established. This so pleased the King that he told Haber- sham to select the finest plantation around Savannah as a reward. The Secretary searched through all the sur rounding country, but could find noth- ing to suit his fancy. Finally Indian friends told him of beautiful bluff on the Vernon River, close to the ocean and ta the sound. The Secretary saw this place and was charmed The King gave him a royal grant to the land and Habersham built himself a house, which he called "Beaulieu," meaning beautiful place." "Beaiieu" had long been famed among the Indians as the most beauti- full spot along the coast, and the chiefs of the various tribes had often gath cred on the oak-covered bluffs in coun- cil with Tomochichi, King of the Yam acraws, who lived with his Queen, the beautiful Creek Senawki, in the In- dian town close by.
 After many years "Beaulieu" fell in- to the hands of the Neels, an old Co., lonial family related to the Haber- shanas. A man named Lampe bought the plantations; that is, he bought the house at ''Beaulieu" but secured only eight hundred acres of the plantation. Lampe lived at "Beaulieu" nearly all his life, but when his wife died he grew to hate the place and sold it to the father of Mir Julian Schley of Sa- vannah-John Schley.
 The OcnleyS OWneu tHe pldhtdliOh uh- til after the civil war. During that great struggle "Beaulieu" was the scene of. many romances of war that are not in history. AS the Schley homestead, 1t was very popular with the officers of the South ern army. At one time Generals Rob- ert E. Lee. G. P. Beauregard. Joseph E. Johnston and A. R. Lawton held an important conference in the Schley home and determined to build fort on the bluff at ''Beaulieu." Green ls- land. out in the sound, was then in the hands of the Federal army. and for weeks the two armies faced each other at close quarters. "Beaulieu" was strongly ,garrisoned and held by the Confederates.
 The famous old plantation. almost the first of it's kind. was doomed when the war left the South destitute. The Schleys subdivided the acres of Beau lieu" into small lots and sold thein. But all the changes have not robbed the place of its rich historic memories. A Georgian cannot breathe the air of "Beaulleu'' and not he inspired by its past. It was there that the founders and makers of the State were wont to gather. and it was there that the brave old King Tomochichi, Oglethorpe's best friend. held his councils for r'any years. Since those old days, Beau lieu has been the seat and center Of the genuine aristocracy of Southern Georgia. Clustered around the old plantation are the summer homes of many of Georgia's oldest and most dis tinguished families. The place now occupied by the DeLoach summer home was owned by Dr. Bulloch of Savdn- nah, since the war and until recently. At all times 1t has been renowned as one place in the South where the old fashioned Southern aristocracy still lived and dispensed hospitality in the old-fashioned. royal way. The name "Beaulieu" might we'll be changed to one meaning beautiful memories" for the place is made sacred by it's wealth of associations of the days that are gone.
 Prominent Savannahians who own summer homes at "Beaulieu" are, Col onel D. B. Lester. Mir. Julian Schley, ,Dr. T. J. Charlton. Hon. Henry McAl- pin, Captain William Dixon. Mir. John M. Bryan. and Rev. c. H. Strong.
