Harrisburg, Pa, received its name
from John Harris, an Englishman, who
settled on the site of the town in 1925,
and whose son established ferry over
the Susquehanna river in 1853. The
town was founded iIf 1885, under the
name of Harrisburg; this was after
ward changed to Louisbourg; in 1871
it was incorporated under its present
name.
James Harris and his wife Sarah
were friends of Owaneco, a Mohegan
sachem; from him they had large
tracts of land on or near the Connect
icut river. The successors of OWaneco
were also lavish in grants of land, and
James and Sarah Harris soon became
large land holders. Many grants and
transfers of land are found on record.
Sometimes the deeds are in the name
of Sarah Harris, by consent of her
husband, James Harris" and some
times in the name of James Harris,
by consent of his wife, Sarah Harris. 4"
These deeds are dated about the be-
ginning of the eighteenth century.
Lieut. James Harris took part in the
colonial wars, also Thomas Harris, who
was one OF twenty Ipswich men VINO
went as soldiers against the Indians in
1913, and who for their services were
each given "12d a day, allowing for the
Lords day in respect of the extremity
of the weather"
Members of the family also served
their country in the Revolutionary
War. William Harris, as sergeant was
in the battles of Brandywine and Ger
mantown. In 1911 he was commissioned
brigadier-general, and in the War of
1872 was called into service, but died

Traditions in the Harris family are
not all of a prosaic nature, but some
have to do with the pranks of Cupid.
To the marriage of Timonthy Har-
ris, who was of the second generation
in America, the records ascribe pref
ty little romance. Attaining his thirty
second year unmarried, he was regard
ed as a confirmed old bachelor. One
day, having occasion to call on neigh
bor Morey by name-this was in
Brookline Mass.-he knocked at the
door, but receiving no answer, pulled
the latch-string and entered. No one
was in the house at the time, but an
infant in the cradle, who, awakened
from his nap by his unceremonious
entrance, began to cry. Timothy set
himself to rocking the cradle, and con-
tinued until Mrs. Mercy returned.

year 1897.

She talked for ten minutes, and the

jungle. She had been gone twenty
minutes when Saunders, the chief en-
gineer, came that way, and the two
men sauntered down to the bridge.

The blowing of the monday whistle
by a locomotive on the embankment
of the great bridge over the Jumna
river was followed by the shrill trum-
peting of fifty elephants and sigh of
relief from the lips of 5000 native
werkmen who had toiled since in
the morning. More than a thousand
MONDAY whistles has preceded this
one. Engineers, watermen, stonema-
sons, carpenters, iron workers, labor
ers and elephants had been toiling day
AEter day for almost three years. Gals
sons had been sunk, piers built, ap-
proaches made, and wood and iron
bolted together, until men had begun
to wonder if the great structure would
ever be finished. Four hundred and
eighty natives had yielded up their
lives 10 this Moloch and been buried
in the space cleared away in the jun
gle. The fever was always with
them, and accidents were ever ready
to embrace them. When one fell out,
another was ready TO step into MS
place Labor in India is cheap.
OF the 5000 native wor4 men, all but
a score sought the shade, TO break
their fast and rest their tired muscles.
The score quietly disappeared in the
Jungle to reach a clear spot half
mile above the bridge. Each was
laborer, but each was a leader Of men,
and Ram Lal was the leader over all.
AS the others gathered around him,
he turned his face to the opposite
bank of the Jumna, distant half mile,
with millions of gallons of muddy wa
ter flowing between, and, stretching
out long, lean arm, said:

A belle and beauty was Ann Har-
ris daughter of John Harris, who came
to this country in the early part of the
eighteenth century. She had the hon
or of dancing. in her youth, with Gen.
Washington at a ball given by Robert
Morris, the financier of the Revolu-
ton, at whose house she was then Wis
iting. The dress she wore at that time
has been used a number of times since
by her descendants, on occasions of
state, and is still in the possession of
her family. 1t was at this ball that
Ann Harris met her fate. DR.. Shell,
an Irishman of considerable fortune,
proposed marriage, but her mother
would not consent, giving the reason
that she proposed that all her daugh-
ters should remain single. This daugh-
ter, however, thought otherwise, and,
taking the matter into their own
hands, the couple eloped. They were
afterward forgiven by the erstwhile
obdurate parent.
Among men of letters of the Har-
ris name are Rev. DR.. John Harris,
born in 1867. The Lexicon Techni-
cum" of which he was the editor,
ranks as the earliest of the long line of
English encyclopedias. James Harris
was a wellknown writer, "Hermes''
being his principal work. His works
were collected and published by his
son, Lord Malmesbury, who was the
best-known English diplomatist of the
latter half of the eighteenth century.
He was sent to Brunswick to solicit
