Delaware's Dutch Ancestry

1.-The Delaware Dutch and the
Plockhuy's Settlement was the
subject of an interesting address de-
livered Friday night before the His
torical Association of Delaware by
DR.. William Elliott Grifis of Ithaca
n. Y. In his address DR.. Griffis
told of the European background
of early American colonial history
leading to the formation of the
early settlemnts in the middle At
lantic states, and finally of the his
tory Of the settlement formed near
the site of the present town of New
Castle by Peter Cornelius Plockhuy
He began his address with brief
history Of the formation of the
Dutch republic, and of the institu-
tions of the early self governing
country. He pointed out that this
country had a written constitution
and advocated general education of
both sexes long before the forma-
ton of the United States. He told
of the early exploring expeditions
to this section of the new world,
and of the early attempts at set
tlement.
In conclusion he told of the
founding of a communistic colony
at the present town of New Castle
by the Dutch under Peter Cornell
ius Plockhuy, and of the destruc-
ton of this colony by the English
under Sir George Carr, after the
colony had existed for two years.
During his address he declared
that had the great secrets of the
history of the Dutch republic been
known sixty years ago, the civil
war would in all probability have
never been fought. He declared
that Delawareans might well be
proud of the Dutch ancestry.
The membership of the associa-
ton expressed their appreciation of
DR.. Griffis address by rising vote
of thanks.

Death Of Miss Webb, The
Friend OF Dumb Animals

The funeral of Miss Emily
Webb. one of the most widely
known women of New Castle coun-
ty, was held from the home of her
nurse, No. IL West Twenty-sixth
street, on Monday. Miss Webb who
was 81 years of age, suffered fall
about six months ago, from the eff
fects of which she never recovered.
Miss Webb had lived for many
years at 923 Shipley street, Will
mington. Of late years she had de-
voted her interest to the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, of which she was one of
the founders in Wilmington. She
was born February 23rd, 1880,
Pa, and Benjamin Webb of Will
mington We're staunch Friends, and
Emily Webb's sisters We're Eliza
Clements of California, Mary Pal
mer of California, Sarah Peterson
of Philadelphia, and Anna Webb,
who lived with her sister, Emily
Webb, until the time of her death,
few years ago. Emily Webb in
her early life moved in the best So
cial circles in Philadelphia, Ches-
ter county, and this city. She was
charming young woman, accus-
toned to good society and was
great reader until the time of her
late illness. She kept herself well
informed on all current topics and
wrote interesting letters to her
friends until very recently. When
she was young woman she was
teacher of painting at the famous
old Wesleyan College in this city.
She was known to have remarkable
artistic taste and after leaving Wes-
leyan College she and her sister
conducted a studio and did splen-
did work in amateur photography.
About 80 years ago the S. P. c.
A. was formed in Wilmington with
Rev. Fielder Isreal, pastor Of the
Unitarian Church, as the first pres
ident, and Emily Webb was one of
the directors. In all its practical
workings she was much interested
until 1t became a passion with her.
She on many occasions unchecked
horses heads and scolded drivers
for their cruel treatment of dumb
animals. Of late years she hunted
up stray cats and took them home
and put them out of misery by
chloroforming them. Those that
could be cured were given treat
ment.
She is survived by two nephews,
Arthur Peterson and Edmund Pet
erson, Of Philadelphia, and Miss
Mabel Peterson, a niece, and some
relatives in California.
Miss Webbs' father was man of
culture. John G. Whittier and
James Russell Lowell had been
guests at his home in Wilmington.
William Peterson, the brother-in-
law, was at one time editor of The
Saturday Evening Post. William
jackson, her maternal grandfather,
was a prominent man in Chester
county, and was on one occasion a
member of the Pennsylvania Legis-
lature. He was botanist and very
rare trees grew on his lawn at Har-
mony Grove in Chester county.

Social And Civic Workers
In Conference At Wilmington

The Delaware State Conference
for Social and Civic Welfare, held
at the New Century Club, Whining
ton, last week, closed on Friday
evening, endorsing the plan to
form a central information board
in Wilmington. A motion prevail
ed that a committee of not less than
five or more than fifteen be appoint
ed by the chair to plan details of
the central organization.
Resolutions were adopted, among
others, putting the delegates pre-
sent on record as favoring more ad-
equate provision for the feeble
minded recreation centers, hospi-
tai for the poor, isolation cottages
for contagious diseases.
It is probable that the central
body will be formed. 1t is proposed
that this association compile certain
information and present bills of So
cial welfare significance to the leg
islature. Members of the commit
tee appointed Friday night by the
Rev. Charles L. Candee, who pre-
sided, were Charles Warner, Caleb
E. Burchenal, 7. Allen Hilles, Miss
Margaret H. Shearman, Irving
Warner, Thomas F. Bayard and H.
II. Ward.
Various phases of the proposed
central bureau explained were: the
Rev. R. L. Jackson, education !;
Caleb E. Burchenal, legislation; A.
d. Warner, Jr., formation; the
Rev. DR.. George Edward Reed,
general remarks; Charles Warner,
finances.
It is proposed to have at least
one thousand members in the GEN.
tral association, and it was stated
that at least $4,000 annually would
be required to finance the new or
ganization. 1t was also declared
that the organization might conflict
in some respects with the Chamber
of Commerce.
The resolutions adopted by the
meeting before its adjournment
follow:
Whereas, The conference noted
with profound interest and great
encouragement the signs of social
progress, in hearing the good re-
suits of the following laws enacted
by our Legislature at its last session,
namely: the ten-hour law and the
non-support law; and
Whereas, The plan for co-ordin-
confidential exchanges in the Asso-
ciated Charities has become a nee
essity in order to secure closer CO.
operation between all existing well
fare agencies; and
Whereas, The plan fo co-ordi-
mating public and private charities
ia Atlantic City, where the council
appropfiates and places in the
hands Of the organized charities
$4,000 annually; therefore, be it
Resolved, That this conference
endorses the plan for the confden-
tial exchanges and the closer co-or-
dination of public and private
charities as conducted in Atlantic
