But Philadelphia was doomed to fall
into the hands of the enemy, and AL
exander Hamilton advised congress to
pack and get out. On September IL
that body made a hasty adjournment,
to meet again at Lancaster, sixty-e1ght
miles away, and left Philadelphia that
night.
But before they adjourned they took
a thought about the Liberty Bell!
Congress determined to save the bell
If possible!
1t was not a matter of mere Senti-
ment The bell was comparatively new
then, and there were few sacred men,
cries clinging around it. The resolu-
ton of congress included some church
bells in the city also. In fact, con-
gress regarded the bells as just so
much metal which the British might
break up and cast into cannon.
Got to Allentown Safely.
So the bells were ordered to retreat
to a place Of safety at Allentown, if
ty miles away, and the executive COM
mittee Of congress was charged with
the duty Of supervising the job.
Fifty miles over the winding dirt
roads those days was long, long way
The Liberty bell weighed 1850 pounds,
and it may we'll be supposed that the
trip was made as quickly as possible.
There was a chance that British caval-
ry might come galloping up at any
moment
Going through the quiet village of
Bethlehem. the wagon that bore the
great bell broke down and the escort
had to unload and get another vehicle.
But the bell went on to its destina-
ton where, girdled by it's defiant Bible
text, it waited for events.

Continental congress together; it pro-
claimed the Declaration Of Indepen-
dence; it's glad peals announced the
victory Of Trenton and the surrender
of CORVALLIS; 1t proclaimed the treaty
Of peace; it tolled out the grief of the
nation at the death Of George Wash
ington; it welcomed Lafayette to Phil
adelphia, and rang once more when
he died; its solemn peals announced
the death Of John Adams and Thomas
Jefferson, and it's last message to the
world was the death Of Chief Justice
John Marshall in 1885. AS it breathed
forth it's sad dirge on that July day it's
great side parted and it was silent
forever. Mute though it is it's patriotic
inspiration is far greater than that Of
any orator, and more than a million
people each year pause to behold this
most precious heirloom of the Ameri
can nation.

twelve words and no more! 1t was not
until two days later, however, that the

How Bell Was Saved
When Howe Advanced
on the Quaker City.
BY DR.. Howard S. Taylor.

On September IL, 1777, a warm.
bright day. the people of Philadelphia
stood around in the streets listening to
the faint sounds of cannon firing down
on Brandywine creek, about twenty
five miles away.
They knew that a great battle was
gOing On between the American army
under Washington and the British.
commanded by General Howe.
And the Philadelphians listened to
the booming Of the distant guns with
passIonately divided feelings.
There were many Tories living in
the city who were devoted to the Brit
ish cause and hoped that Howe might
triumph.
There were also many devout Quak-
erS in those listening crowds who con-
scientiously abhorred war-ultra paci-
fists who thought that the Americans
had no business to fight even In de-
Tense Of their liberties.
But a large part Of the population
Of Philadelphia were patriots who had
gotten the Declaration of Independence
into their hearts at it's first proclama-
ton two months previously, and were
praying for Washington and his
ragged Continentals."
Sad News for Patriots.
The noise of battle commenced about
10 O'Clock in the forenoon, but by night
fall the sounds ceased, and a few
hours afterward the Philadelphians
learned that the Americans had met
with heavy losses, had been defeated
and were retreating before a we'll
equipped army of invasion which out
numbered the patriot forces about two
to one.
Washington managed to reconcen-
trate his troops and slowly fell back
on Ph1ladelphia-skirm when
ever opportunity offered.

HISTORIC NEW YORK REGION
Vicinity Of Village Of FishkiII Was for
Some Time Scene Of Revolution
ary Activities.

We're you to spin along the post road
from New York to Albany-the same
old post road that was built in the
time of the French and Indian wars
upon the line of the old Indian trail
you would pass through the most his
toric part of this region, about a mile
from the village of Fishkil1.
On account Of it's situation, in a
fertile plain protected by surrounding
hills, FiShkill was chosen for large
barracks for Revolutionary soldiers,
officers headquarters and supply de-
pot; and, while the British occupied
New York, the government headquar-
ters for printing and provisioning
were also there. The sword that
Washington himself carried was made
in the village, which, at that time, con-
tanned about fifty houses.
It was in the Van Wyck house,
wrongly called the Wharton house in
Cooper's story, 1.-The Spy" that Har-
vey Birch, who was in real life young
shoemaker named Enoch Crosby, had
his trial. In the meadow below the
house lie buried scores of Revolution
airy soldiers. Across the road from the
burial field were the barracks. -
