At another time Carolina was the
objective point OF the expedition. A
third site suggested for the settlement
was in Norfolk county, Virginia on
the Nansemond river in the neighbour
hood of the "Dismal Swamp" They
appear to have settled at different
points; a portion about jamestown,
some in Norfolk county. others in
Surry, and two hundred or more at a
spot some twenty miles above Rich
mond, on the south side of James river
(now in Powhatan county,) where ten
thousand acres of land, which had been
occupied by the extinct Manikin tribe
of Indians, were given them. They
were also exempted from the payment
OF all taxes for seven years, and were
allowed to support their minister in
their own way. Accordingly, in divid-
ing the grant into farms, all running
down to the river in narrow slips, a
portion of the most valuable was set
apart for the minister, and was thus
possessed and used whilst one resided
in the parish. 1t was afterwards rent
ed out, and the proceeds paid for such
occasional services as were rendered
by neighboring ministers
Bishop Meade states, 1857, that SER
vices were then regularly held in the
old church at Manikin-Town settle
ment. 1t is exhibited that there were
numerous instances of individual
settlement of French Huguenots in
Virginia prior and subsequent to the
influx of 100.

families took their residences along

The expense of transportation to
America was usually borne by the re-

small part Of the Royal bounty-the
English peoples bounty-went TO pay
for the passage of the refugees across
the ocean.
In the year 100 more than five hun
dred emigrants at the head of whom
was the Marquis de la Muce, were
landed in Virginia by four successive
debarkations. Three ministers of the
gospel and two ply sicians were among
the number The ministers were
Claude PHILIPPE de Richoourg, Benja-
min de Joux, and Louis Latane. The
physicians were ChastIni and La Sosee.
Preparations for this important
movement had long been on foot, and
more than once its destination had
been changed. Two years before
the date of embarkations, negotia-
tions were open by the leaders of the
body with "Dr. Daniel Cox" "pro-
prietary of Carolina and Florida" tor
the purchase of hall million acres of
land in the latter territory. The tract
in question was situated near
Appalachee Bay, and the purchasers
were to have the privilege of an addi-
tional half million of acres at the
nominal rent of "A ripe ear OF Indian
corn in the season" for the first seven
years.

The history Of the religious presecu-
ton ofthe Huguenots in France, from
the massacre of St. Bartholomew to
the INFAMOUS outrage which preceded
and followed the Revocation of the
Edict of Nantes, is so familiar through
frequent graphic narrative that any
attempt at repetition here would be
quite unnecessary.
Refuge in Great Britain was sought
by the Huguenots early in the SIX
seenth century, and in the latter de-
cades of that cycle, emigration thither
steadily increasing, had contributed
immensely to the constituent popula-
zion and useful citizenry of England.

ing all ranSs, from the peasant to the

Fifty Republicans met in Barratt

Lake stake of the Mormon charge, and
prominent in the recent campaign by
his jealous efforts for the Republican
party, was chairman of the meeting

the secretary.
At the meeting ringing prohibition
orations were made by David b. Keeler
of Provo, president of Utah stake, and
a prominent worker for prohibition;
q. F. Grant, Albert s. Reiser and
Mrs. Z. f. Shepard, all prominent in
the movement for statewide prohibit
ton.
After some discussion il was decided
to call a mass meeting of the Republi-
cans of the state. At this meeting res
olutions to be adopted in the name of
the Republican party favoTiug state
wide prohibition and instructing the
/ Republican members of the legislature
