The Story Of
; Our States
; Py JONATHAN BRACE
; VIRGINIA
%1M A name ~ 4 i4 =
!. MM Aa 4 EA plies, West
! ES lA Virginia vas
originally a
/ NNrg1:/Sa portion of
W@%w Virginia, the
&SsMPs& Old Dominion
Colony. While its history is nat
urally yoked up with that of the
Mother State, there are many
points in which the two sections
of Virginia we're divergent and
it was for this reason that West
Virginia finally became a sepa-
rate sta1e.
The first white man who prob
ably penetrated the wilderness
of this Western region was John
Laderer, a German surgeon, who
went on a tour of exploration in
1869. In the same year, La Sale
sailed up the Ohio and landed
at several points in the present
state. There was little colonial
ton until 1882, when Scotch and
Irish Adventures began to fill
Western Virginia. They were
encouraged but little, and, in
fact, the King in 1888 declared
that this part of the colony was
Indian country and could not
rightfully be settled. Colonial
stion continued, however, and Bit
ter warfare was waged against
the Indians and the French who
had come down from the North.
In 1774 the battle of PIT. Pleasant
was fought, which was one OF
the bloodiest of Indian conflicts.
The backwoodsmen who set
tied in the Western part of Vir-
GINA were entirely different
types of men from the wealthy
slave owners along the coast.
Jealousies between the two C
tions arose and the Western
countries felt great dissatisfac-
ton at the way Virginia was
governing them. The most
marked point of disagreement
was over the slavery question,
and it vas because of this that.
when Virginia seeded from the
Union in 1861, West Virginia
took matters in its own hands.
Delegates met at Wheeling, drew
up a separate constitution. and
declared their independence.
Their application for admission
into the Union was accepted by
Lincoln, and in 1868 West Vir-
ginia became the thirty-ffth
state.
1t is often called the "Pan-
handle State" on account of its
shape. Its area is PATIO square
miles, and it has eight presiden-
tial electors.

He has a bout scheduled with Ter

condition Of a twisted ankle the Fill

err case 1t IS no great moment since
the bout is at catch weights and
Pancho's title is as secure as Glib

Pancho is very particular about de-
tails OF this kind. He has studious
~ avoided all fly weights since win
ming the title and has Instituted a
campaign against the bantams. none
of whom are particularly dangerous.
His departure at this time would
leave all plans for meetings with
Jimmy Wilde and Frankie Gcnaro
out on a limb. also, it would place
the New York state athletic commits
sion in an embarrassing position
which IS not at all unusual The
commission has been in SO many that
it would feel lost without one.
In this case it would be forced
by its own ruling to read Villa right
out of his title in the event that he
did not return here every six months
to defend it against legitimate cha1-
lengers.
Genaro already has a def of this
nature posted and IS only waiting
for the expiration Of the necessary
six months to lay claim to the cham
pionship. The commission may find,
however. that it cannot legislate
against a mans desire to return 10

no equity in a law that compels him
