Port Covngtou all today within the
limits Of the city Of Baltimore
Because Of her zeal and loyalty,
Baltimore was singled ont as the
target for British vengeance. On the
18th of June, 1914. a newspaper pub
lished in London stated:
The great expedition preparing at
Bordeaux for America is destined for
the Chesapeake direct our little army
In Canada will at the same instant be
directed to make a movement in the
direction Of the Susquchanna. Both
armies will In all probability meet at
Washington, Philadelphia, and Balti-
more Our naval and military com
any armistice or suspension of arms.
They carry with them certain papers
which will be offered to the American
government Mt the point of the bayO-
net"
After the humiliating sack Of Wash
ington, the British turned with re-
neved anger TO attack Baltimore, to
which the helpless national govern
ment could offer no resistance.
The British, however, found strong
Notifications to protect the city against
their attack. Gen. Samuel Smith. a
heroic revolutionary figure, with a
large force, had built Notifications over
mile in length from the harbor as
far as the present Hopkins hospital
Behind these were mounted over 100
cannon, with 10000 troops. The cit
liens rallied as one man under General
Smith and toiled day after day with
pick. shovel, and wbeelbarrow until a
great armament greeted the British
when, after the Battle of North Point,
they arrived within sight of the city
and were compelled to retreat to their
sbips without single shot. The
Americans were so eager for the en-
counter they could not await their
coming. When news reached General
Smith of the anchorage at North Point

The citizens of Baltimore staged an

Der l., 1914. Congress appropriated
$4,000 for the erection Of monu-

dedicated this summer with appropri-

to recall the stirring events which led
TO the writing of this immortal song
Representative J. Charles Linthicum
Of Maryland in a recent speech in the
house reviewed those events and said,
among other things:
Mr. Linthicum-Thism monument now
to be dedicated by the national gov
eminent to that immortal poet is but
fitting tribute from the government
to my native state of Maryland for
the heroism, generosity and support
Of its people during the troublous
times of 1912.
To the strong support of Maryland,
and particularly of its metropolis, Bal
timore, Is largely due the successful
termination of that war. 1t was a
Baltimore man-Minister Pinckney-
who asked for his leave of England,
and was made Attorney General of the
United States, and wrote the declara-
ton Of war
Maryland gave to the war more Off
GERS, ships, and seamen than any other
state. She supplied 46 officers, or
nearly one-fifth of all the officers, of
the American navy. Virginia supplied
AZ which was more than all New Eng
land. Baltimore supplied 81 privateers !;
Salem, 40; Boston, 80; and Philadel-
phia, Ia; and the state of Maryland
equipped over 100 privateers In all. 1t
Is estimated that the loss to England's
