EARLY HISTORY
OFPORT DEPOSIT
The Following Paper Was Read Re-
Gently Before The Hytheham Wo-
mans Club Of Port Deposit BY
Miss Marie Barry.

To locate Port Deposit is to say, that
it rests on the eastern bank of the Sus-
quellanna River, is built on a narrow
ledge of land, grudgngly given and
many times reclaimed by that river. On
moonlight nights, it is peaceful and
quaint; on sunShiny days. it is unique
and busy. and, on rainy days. it is mud
grimed md gloomy. 1t would seem to
the stranger within her gates that no
| corporation had spent busy hours, plan
Ting her crooked Main Street and her
| hillside High Street, that her beginning
was obscure and her development like
Topsy-'just growed' However, she
had a beginning-silie was planned, and
to many of uS-she is HOME.
As early AS 1129. a Thomas Cresop, one
of the heroes of n late WIT, had Il ferry
known as Smiths Ferry" named after
the adventurous Captain John who came
up this far with his exploring parties.
This ferry is supposed to have been To-
Gated where the City Belle now docks
arl discharges passengers and freight
Little is known until 1913. when the
British visited lapitium-thp people of
Smiths Ferry erected Il fort and pre-
pared To receive the British in the man
Iyr usual nj that particular time.

| am sorry that it proved impossible to
secure Il mora extensive knowledge of
the growth of the town. There is much
tradition that is interesting. but we can
meet it only when the oldest inhnhitant
is in a mood for "reminiscences; and the
records seem to ho!l only statistics

Climatic Cures.

The influence of climatic conditions
in the cure of consumption is very much
Ov%erdrawn. The poor patient, and the
rich patient, too, can do much better at
home by proper attention to food di-
gestion and a regular use of German
ing is made certain by German Syrup,
SO is q goodSnight's rest and the absence
of that weakening cough and debilitat-
ing night sweat. Restless nights and
the exhaustion due to coughing, the
greatest danger and dread of the con-
sumptive, a be prevented or stopped
by taking German Syrup literally and
regularly. Should you be able to go to
q warmer cline, you will find that of
the thousands of consumptives there,
the few who are benefited and regain
strength are those who use German
Syrup. Trial bottles, 25c; regular size,
