In James City County

WILLIAMSBURG. Va, Sept. g.
LIT. Hankins, merchant and farmer
living at Lightfoot, in James City
county, had an unusual experience
with blackbirds which devastated his
corn crop. Rain. hail and wind had
done enough for It., but a few days
ago he was surprised to find that
blackbirls of the red.wing species
had eaten at least half of the crop
in the field. The damage had been
done before he discovered IL.
Mr.. Hankins said that while there
id not appear to be so many of the
birds, they worked industriously, and
It did not take them long to destroy

what he had written. reached its
destination.
According to that note-and II
must be borne in mind that at that
time nobody in ireland had any idea
Of the truth about their fellow
countrymen in prison In England
De Valera had been unanimously
proclaimed their leader and would
eventually prove himself worthy Of
being the leader of the whole Irish
national cause.
"The news spread like wildfire. In

relative obscurity into the first place

Dublin Convention.
Finally, the outstanding event Of
1917 was the Sim Fein convention
in Dublin in October. To that first
Ard.Fheis there came, from all parts
of the country, delegates from $500
Sim Fein clubs.
"A standing committee was
elected and the machinery of Ire
lands first practical national organ
ixation was perfected here. For the
first time in irish history there was
q union of all the various sects and
leagues; every dissenting view was
put aside In the interest of the com.
mon cause.
but let me again emphasize the
fact that the cause was not the
Irish republic. One national policy
that the Sim Fein then defined was
that of definite abstention from
Westminster Parliament.
"The declaration Of the republic
by the leaders Of the rising was
far In advance of national thought.
II was only after two years Of
propaganda that we were able to
get any soiidity of opinion on that
idea.
There is only one reason that
the Irish people ever wanted the
republic--it 10 because the British
