ADVANCED BIRTHDAY .oF MRS. MARTHA PATRICK
She Came to the Eighty Fifth Mile
 stone in Good Health.

Mrs. Martha Patrick. mother of Her bert R. Patrick. celebrated her eighty fifth birthday last Sunday. She ar rived at that milestone in good health and with a prospect of passing many more. Mrs. Patrick is not exactly an old timer in Phoenix though she has been visiting this locality since 1880 two years after Mir. Patrick located here and began making those hiero- glyphic inscriptions on the. rocks here about, which have been the wonder of antiquarians for the last thirty years Mrs. Patrick has visited Phoe- nix frequently since that time and two years ago came here to spend the rest of her years.
 She comes of two distinguished fam lilies, the Lees on one side and the Hancocks on the other. Both had con siderable to do with the Declaration of Independence and with the trouble that ensued. The Lees. though they attained their greatest prominence af- ter the family settled in Virginia. were descendants of one John Lee who arrived in this country in 1866 and took up his residence in Boston. He was much heard of after that but the first written record of him, still pre- served in the archives of Boston, is that he was arrested for assault and ;battery. It was brought out at his trial that the assault was provoked by an insulting allusion by the vic tim to the flag of Massachusetts. Even in that early day, long before the rev. olution, the germ of patriotism was getting in it's work within the breasts of the Lees.
