his family and his adherents were scat

there was hardly such a thing as Gle
encV known, and those who had been
vanuuished in any war CT uprising found
their only hope of safety in fight and
exile. Among those whose fear of the
growing power of Cromwell and his
army urged them to seek n refuge in
other lands was Captain Norwood. At
ter a consultation with other royalists
officers, they came to a conclusion that
they would seek an asylum in America
and that they would choose that port on

to the royalist cause. namely the Old
Dominion Of Virginil. Captain Norv- GOD

water appeared to change. It's depth was
found to be one hundred and thirty-fiva

of breakers arose, and all hands We're
ordered aloft. Rushing upon deck in
obedience to the call the sailors fell
upon their knees in disnay, for the posi-

how great was their danger. The captain
seemed para'Nzed. but the mate retain

Only two responded Thomas Raisin and
John Smith. one of whom went aloft and
loosened the fore topsai, and the other

EVANSVILLE HEADS THE LIST

The total receipts of the Three-i

compared with 65,91O.97 this year.
The increase was particularly mark
ed Sundays and holidays at the be
ginning of the season. Last year
Davenport headed the list with re-
ceipts of Ss.sS5.7O. while Evansville
heads the list this season with So,

Rockford last year was next

of S5,3S2.1O, while this season that
city. with a pennant winning team,

Rockford with S7,752.1O.
1t is a strange fact, as will he
noticed in the table, that Blooming
