OF course the ostrich didn't under

peace! There are great Germans. All
races contribute great men to this
good old world of ours, and in any
race the proportion of great men to
them that are greatless men is very
small.
Admiration for France and the
things that were French was stronger
in the Potomac colonies, or "proprie-
taries." or royal provinces" than in
the eastern colonies. There were
reasons for this as for all other
things. King Williams. war that
land in 1889 and extended to the
American colonies, did not involve
the southern colonies as it did those
in New England. The French of
Canada or New France with their In
dian allies harassed New England
and the destruction of Dover. N. H,
Haverhill. Mass. and Schenectady. N;
Y. the capture of Fort PemoQuid. and
the massacre of the inhabitants of
Salmon Falls and Casco Bay, stand
out as the peak features of that war
which the treaty of Ryswick brought
Ryswick came Queen Anne's war.
Again it was New England that suf-
fered and perhaps the outstanding
features were the burning of Deer
field. the massacre Of some of the
Inhabitants and the carrying off to
Canada of others. Then in 1744 came
King Georges war and the surrender
Of Louisburg on Cape Breton Island
to New England troops and an Eng
lish fleet. 1t seems that the English
ticular delight in giving French
names to their farms, while in this
part of the land your ancestors con-
tinued to set up Belmonts and Belairs.
When the French and Indian war
the bloodiest and widest spread of the
n Cyo rH in
1854, Virginia and Maryland took an
important part. In that chapter of
American history the names of NAL
George Washington, Great Meadows,
wego. Fort Niagara. Crown Point
Ticonderoga, Fort Edward. Fort Will
liam Henry, Quebec, Heights Of Abra-
ham and Pontiac stand out. There
was a slump in the pro-French SEN
timents Of the. wealthy and fashion
ginia and in the period of the French
and Indian war. 1754-1763, few Belle
vues and Beaumonts were set up.
But not long after the treaty of
Paris, which brought the French and
Indian war to close. colonial sem
timent began to take on an anti
English cast. The English govern
ment insisted that the colonies should
"pay their share of the war" The
colonists from the St. Lawrence to
TIE IolOHdC. anu AEOH Inc TOIOIHdC
to the Chattahoochee answered that
they had paid their share in life, in
service and in money. The year after
the close Of the war the English par
lament formally declared the right
to tax the American colonies, and in
1855 passed an act that deeds. notes,
bills and other Legal documents must
be written on stamped paper furnish
ed by English revenue officers at
specified rates of charge. Bang! Pat
rick Henry of Virginia, Samuel Ad-
ans of Massachusetts, and the Sons
Of Liberty! South Carolina and Massa-
