when dad got his second wind he broke
up the English officers by taking out a
pencil and piece of paper, and asked
them what they would take for the
rock and its contents, and move out and
let the American flag float over it.
Well, say, they we're hot. and they
told dad to go plum to, but dad wouldn't
do it. He said America didn't want
the old stone quarry, anyway, and il
it did, 1t could come and take it.

for treason, only when we got out into
the town there was the whole British
Atlantic squadron lined up, with men
up in the rigging like monkeys, and
every vessel was firing a salute, as =

out, or that some rich American owned
the yacht, but it turned out to be Queen
Alexandria and party Of tourists, and
when the bank played God Save the

and sang so loud you would think he
