FEARING BLEASE
GEORGIA TROOPS
CUT CHARLESTON
AFRAID TO enter The STATE
"Old Guard" viii Not Go TO
South Carolina

Atlanta, Feb. 1.-THE "Old Guard
of Georgia which is planning IN
Eastern trip this spring to return the
visits of the different commands
which came here last year for the I'm
yelling of the peace monument on
Piedmont Park, wanted to land at
Charleston on their return by water,
but have given up the project on &C
count of the uncertain quantity known
as Governor Cole L. Blease.
Some of the members of the Old
Guard have lived in Charleston; their
commander, Col. j. F. Burke, was a
Citadel cadet when the war broke out,
and joined the famous Star of the
West Battery" which fired on the
steamship Star of the West" just rs
the war began.
1t was not unnatural, that on ac-
count of historical association, the
Old Guard should have desired to
visit Charleston briefly, when the
opportunity offered. They will sail
from Boston on their return trip AMI
carefully considered the proposition
as to where they should land.
After full consideration, it was de-
cided that the return trip should be
made to Savannah rather than
Charleston, and all because of Blease
When the peace monument was I'M
yelled here troops were invited from
all parts of the East and South. Bos-
ton, Hartford, New York, Philadel-
phia, Baltimore, Washington were all
represented by prominent military
commands; troops came in from sew
eral Southern states, but when the In
vitation was put up to South Carolina,
Governor Blease issued a general ord
er to the effect that no troops should
be allowed to leave that state for any
purpose for a given time.
This order was taken as a direct
slap to Atlanta and Georgia, and was
considered by many as probably due
to the fact that two governors of
Georgia had refused to turn Thomas
b. Fielder over to his vengeance.
So the Old Guard members talked
it over and concluded it would be ad-
visable not to enter South Carolina at
all for fear that Governor Blease
might pull some stunt that would
cause some embarrassment.
1t was thought, for instance, that
in order to show his spleen against
the Georgians, particularly the Allan
tans, he might issue an order which
would prevent the troops in Charles,
ton from showing any courtesies. Or,
he might even forbid the Old Guard to
enter the state unless they laid aside
their side-arms.
There is any number of stunts
which he might pull, if he felt dis
posed to put some slur upon the Geor-
giana as he has shown disposition
to do on other occasions.
1t was decided, therefore to call off
the return trip to Charleston and ar.

OF his career in the waters OF the CariD-
bean Santo Domingo played an important
part I'm the life OF Columbus. and upon
this point hinges the reason for the trans
fer OF his remains from Valladolid, Spain,
to this spot In the West Indies. Sentiment
(and that on the part OF the great ex-
plorer) was responsible for his burial In
the cathedral at Santo Domingo.
The final years of his life were fairly
stormy ones, and his own people turned
against him. Only six years before his
death, he was sent back 10 Spain from
Santo Domingo loaded with chains. True,
ne was released Immediately, but he could
not recover his previous position, and the
throne refused TO reinstate him in his
quondam dignities. However, after many
difficulties, ne mustered a fleet OF four
caravels and started out to circumnavigate
the globe in 1902. In February OF 1903 he
returned 10 Jamaica and had to remain
upon the island because his ships were
worm eaten and unfit to stand the further
buffeting OF the seas. After enduring
great hardships and being obliged to quell
a mutny of violent nature among his
men all hands were relieved by the COM
ing OF other ships in 1904. and I'm Novem-
Der OF that year he landed for the last
time on the shores Of Spain.

Misfortune was his lot there. because
his faithful patron, Queen Isabella, died
shortly afterward, and In vain he sought
for recognition and the honors that had
been his In the days Of his popularity
He died two years later after continued
neglect and poverty. 1t is said that just
before he died in Valladolid Columbus
asked that his body should be carried
to Santo Domingo and given "A resting
place within the walls Of the monastery
there. This wish was later on fulfilled.
and there began the trouble which has
caused confusion as to the identity OF the
bones OF Columbus.
The Spaniards were evidently far from
mindful Of Columbus at the time of his
death, and IL was nearly month after
his demise before an official record was
made OF the fact. According to the best
authorities his body was placed in a vault
OF church OF the Franciscan Fathers,
and between then and 1903 was re-
moved to the Carthusian Monastery OF
Santa Maria de las Cuevas, in the city OF
Seville. Subsequently his son, Diego Co.
Ion, the second admiral, was also buried
there.
From Seville, the body OF Columbus was
taken. so some authorities state, In l542

also called, and placed where the great
admiral had besought upon his death bed.
Some time afterward the remains of his
brother Bartholomew and those OF his son,
the second admiral, were likewise trans
ferred to Santo Domingo, the bones Of all
of them finding resting place within the
cathedral.
Certain II is that the remains OF Chris
TOPPER Columbus lay in the cathedral at
Santo Domingo in 1919, because vertical
ton OF this fact was put on record by
the Archbishop of the Dominican Do
cese. who then wrote declaring that the
tomb OF the great Admiral christopher
Columbus, in which his bones lie. was
greatly venerated and respected in our
Holy Church" But they have sleepy ways
in the West Indies-at least they had in
those far away days, and during the next
two hundred years little was certainly
known about the grave. What is more.
for quite one hundred years there was
no outward evidence by which to identify
the tomb of Columbus. The Archbishop
in 1919 had said that the explorers bones
rested in the main sanctuary, and this
had become a tradition, but lacked con-
frmation of visible character.
After some searching, il was learned
from historical sources that the admiraps
remains were in leaden casket to the
right OF the altar platform In the sanct-
uary of the cathedral. Further by way
