MEMORIAL TO THE FRENCH

Annapolis.

Annapolis. On the campus of Old
st. Johns College the ceremony of
unwilling the memorial to the mem
DRY of the soldiers and sailors Of
France who died in the struggle for
American independence took place
under the auspices OF the General
Society of Sons of the Revolution.
The exercises we're attended by Presi-
dent Taft and Ambassador Jusser-
and, Of France, both of whom de-
Ivered addresses.
Special cars brought the Presi-
dent and the French Ambassador,
the Sons of the Revolution and the
special guests from Washington.
The ceremonies attending the un-
yelling took place early in the af-
ternoon. The President was met at
the station by the corps Of cadets of
st. Johns College, which acted as
his special guard of honor from the
time he arrived in Annapolis until
he went to the Naval Academy late
in the afternoon.
The event in Annapolis was of
unique interest, inasmuch as 1t was
the first time that there has been
definite recognition of the services Of
the enlisted men Of the army and
navy of France, who aided this
nation in its struggle for independ-
ence. The site on the campus Of
old St. Johns, at Annapolis. is par
ticularly we'll chosen. as there lie the
bodies of 80 of these enlisted men
and one officer, who died while 1000
Frenchmen were at Annapolis under
Lafayette.
