their destiny, for one week after their
arrival there the mother died leaving
a family of five small children. One
year later the bereft family returned to
Maryland. She was ten years Of age
when Lafayette make his rnemora-
bic visit TO the states in 1924 and re-
membered clearly of seeing him and in
cidents of his reception. She also saw
the first steam boat and rode on the
first railroad coach that ever left Bal
timore. It was drawn by horses. In
1889 she was united in marriage to
Upton q. Wheeler, Sr., a prominent
business man of Baltimore. In 1850
Mr.. Wheeler's health failed and they
moved to Ohio, locating near Carding-

seemed little fitted TO face the hard
ships and trials she was destined to
meet in new country. In 1850 her
husband died, sorrow which seemed
for time unbearable. Being Of cheer

looked to him who alone can give
strength in such dark hours and she
was given strength. Her children grew
to young manhood and womanhood
there. In 1861 her eldest son, William
enlisted with the boys in blue and
in 1858 he was killed in battle near
