Son Takes Boulder From Maine to

Bloomington correspondence Chicago News.
In compliance with the dying request of
his father. DR.. Walter o. Blaisdell jr., of
Punxsutawney, Pa, journeyed all the way
from central Illinois to Augusta, Me-,
after a huge boulder which lay on Inc old
farm where his father hau spent the
happy days of his boyhood. The great
mass of red granite was loadea upon a
fiat car and then shipped 1900 miles to
McDonough county. this state, and placed
upon the grave.
The elder Blaisdell was taken III few
weeks ago and his son was summoned
from his home in Pennsylvania. When
it was seen that the end was near the
son asked his father if there was not

and then replied in the affirmative. He
recalled particularly a boulder which
stood near the old homestead and which
was the center of his playground. With
voice shaken with emotion he asked his
son to place that boulder upon his grave
He declared that he could secure no

pile of stone around which such pleasant
memories associated.

lory OF the Declaration of independence

were the councils at home besieged by
the advocates, and petitions were
showered on the delegates in Congress.
The delegates of Pennsylvania had been
strictly ordered TO reject any PROPOSE
ton for Independence, but the Radical
party of the colony had before this
taken matters into its own hands, and
by an interesting revolution. they sue
ceeded in overpowcring the regular as
sembly, and forwarded n message TO
Congress favoring independence. New
Jersey, too, sent new delegates instruct

Excitement at Fever Heat
AS the first day of July approached
the excitement in Congress increased.
Although we have no records of the de-
bate, it is evident that IN the intervals
between reading reports from the army
and voting money for gunpowder and
cannon, the two parties were exercis-
ing their utmost influence for and
against the Declaration. The numbers
for independence were gradually creep
ing up, and every change of front be-
came matter Of the most dramatic
interest
John Adams, in a letter TO a friend
written in 1913. tells a graphic story
Of the conversion of one of the mem
bers. For many days the ma aiority
depended on Mr.. Hewes of North Caro-
. lima. While a member one day was
speaking, and reading documents from
all the colonies, TO prove that the
public opinion, the general sense of
all, was in favor of the measure,
when he came to North Carolina
and produced letters and public pro-
ceedings which demonstrated that the
majority of that colony were in favor
of it, Mr.. Hewes, who had hitherto
constantly voted against it, started
suddenly upright, and lifting up both
his hands to heaven, as If be had
been i'll a trance. cried out, 1T is
donel and [ will abide by it,. ] would
give more for perfect painting Of
the terror and horror upon the faces
of the old majority at that critical
moment than for the best piece of
Raphael''
The resolution was brought TO vote
on the first day Of July, some fifty
one members being present in Con-
gress. That it would have a majority
was certain, but something more than
majority was necessary, everybody
felt. On the morning of the LIST, lust
as Congress was about TO enter on the
debate, the hearts of John Adams
and his associates were made glad by
the arrival Of delegates from Mary
land, instructed to give unanimous
vote. Matters looked so propitious
that Adams wanted the vote taken
at once, but New Jersey was un-
willing, She had given her delegates

permission TO support independence if
they thought it expedient; they had
arrived only on the 2Sth, and very
naturally they wanted TO hear the
arguments: so, to Adams g disgust, the
debate began again But stale and
futile as the rejteration seemed to him,
he did not shirk it. Never was
Adams more powerful than in this
final debate on Lee s resolution. He
was the COLOSSUS of that debate, -
said Jefferson afterward. The entire
question. and at night Congress was
still unwilling TO take a final vote, and
so adjourned the decision until the
2nd. The night was spent in excited
work. Four colonies-New York,
Pennsylvania. Delaware and South
Carolina-still held back, but before
Congress assembled the next morning
majority for the resolution had been
secured in each delegation, excepting
that of New York, so that when
the vote was finally taken, twelve

July 2 Independence Day.
AS matter Of fact. the passing of
Mr. Lee s resolution effected the sepa-
ration Of the colonies from Great
Britain, and the End of July is really
Independence day 1t was this day,
John Adams wrote his wife on July
3rd, that future generations would
celebrate. 'FThe second day of July,
1916, will be the most memorable epoch
in the history of America - he wrote
81 am apt to believe that it will
be celebrated by succeeding genera
tions as the great anniversary festival
1t ought TO be commemorated as the
day of deliverance, by solemn acts of
devotion to God Almighty. 1t ought
to be solemnized with pomp and pa
rade, games, sports, guns, bells, bon.
fires and illuminations, from one end
of this continent to the other, from
this time forward for evermore -
But it was on July that the
document which makes the formal ex-
preston Of independence was adopted.
The formal Declaration came before
the House Immediately after the adop-
tion Of Lee s resolution, and was
taken up, clause by clause, for debate
The members, after their two days ;
struggle, were not in any mood to deal
easily with Mr.. Jefferson s production.
On the contrary, bhey set themselves
vigorously to pull it TO pieces.
With two exceptions the changes
they made were verbal, and to the
great improvement of the document.
The two really important points which
Congress refused to allow to 20 into
Mr.. Jefferson IS paper were, first, a
paragraph in which he arraigned
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1907-06-30


with terrible severity the slave
traffic; and second. charge that the
English people had been equally guilty
toward Americans with the King and
Parliament
The free criticism of the Declaration
INDUCED In during the debate annoyed
Mr.. Jefferson exceedingly. He made
IL point Of courtesy to reply 70 none
of it, but it was easy TO see that he
took it badly.
Length Of Debate Unknown.
Just how long the debate on the
Declaration continued on the Fourth
is unknown. While it was going on
the Radicals were marshaling all their
strength TO secure big vote; Mexican
OF Delaware even sent an express at
his own expense TO Dover for Caesar
Rodney. 81 met him at the State
House door in his boots" wrote Nc
Kean afterward. "He resided eighty
miles from the city, and arrived Just
as Congress met.
when, according TO the journal, the vote
was tn ken and the Declaration was
'agreed to. y Forty out of fifty mem
bers present arc supposed to have voted
TOR 1t, including one member from New
York--Henry Wisner Tho document
was then ordered authenticated and
printed. - IT is improbable that there
was any signing on that day. except
ing that by John Hancock, the presi.
dent, and Charles Thompson. the secre-
tary. Their names were put TO the copy
which Mr.. Jefferson had presented but
no others, as indeed would have been
unwise. IT was most important that
the document have unanimous ap-
proval, if possible. BY little waiting
and manoeuvering it seemed pretty GER
tam that this unanimity could be Sc
cured
Tumult in City.
Not only was there no general sign
ing of the Declaration of Independence
on the Fourth day Of July. 1776. but
tradition has invested the day with
other dramatic features which uuhap-
PLY are false. It is pity not to be-
leve, as most OF us were taught, that
while the debate was under way
There was tumult in the city,
In the quaint old Quaker town;

meetings Of Congress were held behind
closed doors, and while it was Well
known in the coffeehouse of the city
that Mr. Lees resolution had been
voted on favorably. and, no doubt, too.
that a formal declaration embodving
it was under consideration. no crowds
