Brother of Famous Ethan Allen.

Ira Allen, younger brother OF
Ethan Allen and one of the founders
of Vermont, died 100 years ago in Phil.
adelphia. Born in Connecticut in 1751,
Ira Allen accompanied his brothers to
Vermont at the age of twenty, and in
one year became an extensive land
proprietor He was lieutenant in Col
onel Warmers regiment in the Canada
campaign, and a confidant of General
Montgomery. He was first treasurer
of Vermont and member Of the board
of war during the Revolution. He was
prominent in the Haldiman negotla'
tons, and while his conduct gave some
color to the charge that he was ready
to surrender the territory of Vermont
to the crown, the fact remains that h;s
action delayed the contamination Of
an agreement and saved the territory
to the United States. In the latter
years of his life Allen met with flnan
cial reverses and at the time OF his
death he was harassed by creditors
and lawsuits.

Suddenly the dusky form of the

Smit nudged my arm. She likes you.

Her voice was quiet, almost unemo-

serpent coils. She paused.
