BY FRANCIS SCOTT KEY.

BY FRANCIS SCOTT KEY.
Francis Scott Key, born in 1779,
died in 1843, was native of Mary
land. During the war Of 1872 he
went under a flag of truce to the
British fleet in Chesapeake bay to
ask the release of a friend. The
admiral detained him with the fleet
! for two days to prevent mis- carry
ing ashore information. The Brit
lsh admiral had declared that he
would soon compel the Americans to
maui down the flag of Fort McHen-
ry. During the night Key watched
the flag anxiously until the bonn
oardment ceased, some time before
daylight. When he saw that our
flag was still there" his joy found
vent IN some hastily scrubbed notes
on the back of an old letter. He
| put them into verse while returning
to Baltimore
IA. say, can you see, by the
~ dawn's early light.
What so proudly we hailed
at the twilight's last gleam-
ing?
} Whose broad stripes and bright
stars through the perilous
fight
, Ger the ramparts we watched
; were so CALAMITY streaming;
!, And the rockets red glare, the
bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night
that our flag was still there.
Oh, say, does that star spangled
banner yet wave
Ger the land Of the free and the
home of the brave?
On that shore dimly seen through
the mists of the deep,
Where the foes naughty host
in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze
DER the towering steep,
AS it titfully blows, now con-
ceals, now discloses?
Now it catches the CLEAN of the
, mornings first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines
} in the stream!
Ills the star spangled banner
, oh, long may it wave
Ger the land Of the free and the
} home Of the brave!
And where is that band who so
, vauntingly swore
Mid thu horoo o. ,1,o,, ,,l
, battles confusion
A home and a country they'd
leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out
, their foul footsteps pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling
, and slave
From the terror Of fight or the
gloom of the grave,
,, And the star spangled banner in
triumph doth wave
, Ger the land of the free and the
} home of the brave!
, Oh, thus be it ever when free
men shall stand
} Between their loved homes and
the wars desOlatiOn.
Blest with victory and peace.
,, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath
!. made and preserved us a ma
} ton!
/. Then conquer we must when our
, cause it is just,
And this be our motto, "In God
, is our trust:''
, And the star spangled banner in
, triumph shall wave
Ger the land of the free and the
, home of the brave!
