There was a woman along the Ohio
river in the early days who did so many
good things and kindly, In an unconven-
tional way, that people called her crazy.
But strict observance OF the conventions
elities of life does not always make for
patriotism any more than II does for
morality. else maybe the "embattled
iarniors" who gathered at Concord had
never fired the shot heard round the
world
In any event. Mad Ann Bailey, the
heroine Of Point Pleasant was re-
mnrkabe woman. who did brave deeds
for her adopted people at time when
her way careless of what was said of

Sargent, who had married woman
somewhat above his own station in life.
Anne claimed to have been named after
Queen Anne, at whose coronation in 17o5,

parents, At the age OF nineteen while
on her way to school she was kidnapped

she was sold to defray the expenses or
her voyage, OF her life for the next few
years there seems to be no record until
in $780, when she was married 10 John
Trotter. a farmer. Her age was given
as thirty years at that time, If Trotter
was the same age as his wife at the
time of their marriage he must have been
right sturdy old gentleman In his latter
days as he was a soldier at the battle
of Point Pleasant in 17i4.
1t Is likely. however, that the Trotters
had Gr!fted out into the new country,
opening up along the Kanawha and Ohio,
which was settled by Virginia pioneers.

their own home and hreside. Anyway
