days. 1t is situated 30 miles above Nor
folk and Newport News, on the James
river. and is about 70 miles below Rich
mond. Old inhabitants say that II mas
shrunken within n generation, but that
if has now an area of 1,7OO acres. II Is
two and half miles long, and only NJ
tie more than half mile in Wldth'
From the main shore it is separated by
a narrow stream and some marshy low
land, over which there is low wooden
bridge. The whole place looks old
timey.'
The island is as barren of civilization
as Palmyra of the desert, and the only
evidences of its former teemlng hapl-
tation are the walls of the Amber
mansion-house, and the pitiful piece OF
tower of the first Protestant church
built of brick in the new world. These
objects of interest were pointed out by
n Young colored woman from the
mainland. who also directed the traV-
eler TO the screened little acreage sur
rounding the relics of the church and
the long neglected cemetery. There
are no pictures of these interesting OBJ
iects but the tower is like any ordi-
nary old tower, and the mansion
remains are composed of the small
bricks imported in those early days;
about half of the size of modern bricks.
The mansion is said to have been built
with bricks which were formerly used
in official and ancient structures. Ira
dition has it that in this old mansion
there resided a woman who declined
the honor of marriage with George
Washington.
If this be true she must have almost
hated herself afterwards when George
became "frst in war. first in peace anc
first in the hearts of his countrymen.'
There is an association of ladies
known as an association "For the Pre-
servation of Virginia Antiquities,
and It is this association which has sur
rounded these sole relics with Wir,
fences and thick wire screens. Thes'
ladies took this step only six years
ago; rather late in the day for the pre-
seryation of these antiquities, for hogs

browsed about the tower and the wall
and over the graves of the cemetery TO
many, many years.

though his religion had been no com
fort to him in the commodious log
wigwam.
But for the removal of the capital
to Williamsburg there might have
been a great educational institution
at jamestown, because Parson BAR
the Scotchman from the University
of Edinburgh who founded William
and Mary college, was assigned to
the parish at jamestown in the new
brick church, just before the trans
fer of the capital. He had for
short time been pastor of the parish
of Narina, where Pocahontas was
one of his parishioners. She was the
wife of John Rolfe, an extensive to-
bacco planter, and was known as Re-
| becca Rolfe; quite English, you know,
as compared with her aboriginal
name when she hurried into history
by her rush to the rescue of Capt,
John Smith. Parson Blair often said
that if he had remained at James
town he would have founded the col
lege there--an institution which has
endured until this day, and will ever
endure.
The celebrated educational institu-
ton was originally built of bricks
made on jamestown island. They
were made in the style of the i'm
Dorted bricks, but were not import
ed: neither were those which were
used in the church at jamestown

in coed state of preservation, and the

Orders Must be Obeyed,

The Supreme Court of Pennsyl-
vania. says the Dushore Re7iezo, has
decided that soldier on duty must
obey orders, and that he is not person
ally responsible when he does SO.
The case that called out this decision
was that of young Wadsworth, men,
Der of Prtsburg regiment, on duty
at Shenandoah during the strike last
summer. The soldier was on guard
and detected miner trying to pass
his line. lie ordered him to halt,
and the order not being obeyed he
shot. The man was killed in his
tracks. The soldier was arrested for
manslaughter on his retutn home.
He applied for writ of habeas cor
pus, and it was on the argument Of
this writ that the decision of the Su-
preme Court was given. They said
that if the orders under which the
man was acting were too severe and
unjusthable, the officer who issued
the orders was the one to hold, and
not the soldier. Wadsworth was re-
leased from custody and exculpated
from the blame. This is clear
warning for the future that soldiers
are on duty at scenes of disorder for
the purpose of restoring order; that
they have authority to kill, and that
they will kill if necessary. In other
words, General Gobins "shoot to
kill" order has been upheld.
