that date subscription schools were
held in many parts of the Hundred,
and the free schools" were not pop
ular until even a later time.
Cedar Creek was once navigable for
many miles up into the Hundred, and
Thomas Story, the famous Quaker
missionary records in his autobio-
graphy that he was delayed for three
days in his journey to Lewes, at the
home of Thomas Clark, in 1892, by
the swollen condition of the little riv-
er, which went raging past after vio-
lent storms, and no one dared ferry
him and his horses across. But the de-
bris brought down out of the swamps
and the sand washed shoreward by
the sea, filled the mouth of the stream,
and an act was passed in Feb, 1898,
for the cutting of canal from Lewis
Ditch to run the water into the Mis-
pillion or into the bay. Nothing was
done, however, until 1848, when Geo.
R. Fisher was instrumental in digging
the canal and affording relief for some
years.
Mr.. Fisher was chairman of the
Building Commissioners for the erec-
tion of the new courthouse at George
town in 1879.
The farm belonging to Mr.. Fisher in
Cedar Creek Hundred was part of
patent of 900 acres given Robt Hart,
by Governor Andres in 1877, when
Delaware was part of New York. On
it Mr.. Fisher erected an ample manor
house, and had extensive gardens,
cultivated fields, prolific orchards,
gigantic forest of oak and chestnut at
the entrance to the farm, and extend
ing to the borders of Cedar Creek.
From this forest, during the Civil War,
he presented the Naval Department of
the Government with it's own selec-
ton of oak trees, the timber of which
was used in building gun boats, for
service against the confederacy.
But what delighted me most, when
as a boy, I visited this benigerant,
kindly old gentleman, was his library.
The shelves were filled not only with
books on law, and government, but
with the poets, histories, classical ro-
mances, and essays of the learned and
renowned. He was generous in in
viting one to use them, and l never
departed but that he pressed upon me
the loan of one or more of these treas
ures of the mind.
He and my father were warm
friends, both delighted in discussing
the grave issues of the government,
and while they were deep in methods
of craftsmanship, quoting Madison,
Hamilton, and men of the day, would
steal softly into the library and i'm
merse myself in one of his rich vol
umes, and forget the world outside.

SHIPPING GRADED APPLES
E. C. PERRY MEETS WITH SUCCESS PRE-
PAIRING TASTEFUL PACKAGES.

Delaware apple growers, prohtlng
by the caution given a few weeks ago
relative to the necessity for grading
fruit if they wished to uphold the
good name of the State and their bus
mess, are now utilizing the suggestion
with splendid results.
Up at Wyoming, where e. c. Perry
has extensive and excellent yielding
apple orchards, the fruit is being
packed according to grades and ship
ped to New York markets where good
prices are being obtained, When Mr..
Perry learned of the embargo placed
on apples a few weeks ago by New
York State, he at once prepared to
ship his fruit only as graded arti-
Gle. Experts in packing apples were
gotten and these men have been en-
ployed day and night the past few
days selecting the fruit and packing
just so many apples in each box or
carrier.
The fruit looks splendid when neat
ly arranged in rows and Western
fruit packers have nothing on the
Delaware output, the way the Perry
orchard is sending it out this summer.
All of the apple shippers are going
forward under guarantee of being
the grade they are represented to be.
Care is taken to see that not one
spoiled or spotted apple gets into any
carrier so that when a commission
man offers a box of Perry apples to
any one, he and the purchaser know
that when the box is opened, the fruit
will be found to be just as represent
ed.
Other apple growers of Delaware
are preparing to pack the same way,
in order to repair damage done to the
State and it's apples by the shipping Of
apples in bulk, regardless of the quail
ity or grade.
Those who have tried out the eX-
Deriment of shipping only graded ap-
pies, and other fruit, say that the plan
is the best paying method they have
tried. They can always command a
higher price for apples of known
quality and size and the expense of |
picking the fruit and sorting it and |
then packing with care has been more
than met by the returns received for
the. shipments.
The extra work of sorting and |
packing has also given employment to
many men and boys who otherwise
would have to seek jobs at other Ia
Dor about the farms. Some women
have been employed at the work and
The industry if generally adopted will
provide another source of employment
at profitable wages for many people.

Editor of The Milford Chronicle,

Editor of The Milford Chronicle,
Sir:
A notice in the columns of the last
issue of your excellent paper, of the
public sale, July 22nd, of the George
R. Fisher farm, brought back to me
a train of recollection of the former
owner, and 1 feel induced to transfer
them to The Chronicle, for there must
be many yet living in Milford, who
personally knew that fine old gentle
man, and revered his character, and
his patriotism, and who would be glad
to have their memory of him awaken
ed once more.
George R. Fisher was a descendant
of John Fisher, who came over with
William Penn in 1852, and settled in
Sussex county. The family throughout
it's various branches were men and
women of integrity, progressive and
dependable. Mr. Fisher was prothonO-
tary from 1880 to 1912, holding the
office longer than any other official in
Sussex county in the last century. In
1912 he was elected State Senator, and
during his incumbency he was vigor-
GUS and satisfactory assistance in pre-
serving the financial independence of
Delaware, at a time when the whole
country was in excitement and de-
preston over the governments sup
preston of many banking institutions
and imperilling the credit of the
States. So we'll did the legislation of
Delaware succeed that, it was said
by the press, "The men who make our
laws and protect the interests of the
State, have proved themselves gifted
with a wisdom that has led them
forth in a path of safety, economy and
prosperity. For State, in those times
of depression, and embarrassment, to
be not only out of debt, but to have
half a million of dollars surplus, is
something to boast of"
The politics of the county changing
after the term of State Senator ex-
pired, Mr.. Fisher did not again be-
come an office holder, but he wrote
many fine articles on the policies Of
the day, and became well known
throughout the State. His name was
suggested more than once for con-
gressional honors, and if his party
had been in power at the time, he
would, without doubt, have been chos-
en- for a distinguished post.
Mr.. Fisher was chairman in 1922
of the Board of Commissioners, ap-
pointed to apportion the county into
school districts. Cedar Greek Hundred
was divided into six districts. Before

A LETTER FROM NEW JERSEY

July II, 1922.
Dear Colonel Townsend:
hope that you will de me the kind
ness to publish in your issue of The
Chronicle, on Friday next, the accom-
panying article on the late George R.
Fisher. 1 should like to see it in
print before the old farm is sold on
Saturday.
1 was in Milford, on Tuesday, the
4th inst, and wanted to have the pleas
ure of meeting you, but the violent
rain storm prevented me, as had to
take the train at 4:59 p. m. for Har-
rington, and thence South.
Respectfully yours,
GEO. T. WEIGH.
