D. A. R. SEEKING BURIAL
PLACES OF HEROES OF '76
Campaign to Mark Graves Leads to
Search of Cemeteries in All
Parts of Country.

Metropolis, Ill.-The Daughters of
the American Revolution have begun
campaign to determine the location
of graves Of veterans of the American
Revolution in cemeteries and rural
graveyards all over the country. The
D. A. r. is asking that all graves be
reported that they may be properly
marked.
1t is believed that more than 100
veterans of the American Revolution
are buried in graves in southern Mis-
souri,, and that many could be To-
Gated in southern Illinois and other
sections of this state, should the nee
essary vigilance and attention be
given in searching for them.
Following a line Of careful inquiry
and investigation here the fact stands
revealed that THIS county (Massac) is
on the honor roll as place that has
two veterans of the American Revolu-
ton buried within its boundaries; one
Of these being John Smith, the other
Ned Henderson. Both these men
served in the Revolutionary war in
North Carolina and in Virginia, and
following its close emigrated to Hill
nOis and, with their wives and chill
dren, settled in this county, Is miles
north of here, near what is now the
town of New Columbia.
Henderson lies buried in the old
Henderson graveyard, two miles west
of New Columbia, the cemetery taking
its name from the Henderson family,
and is the oldest graveyard In this Sec
ton. Henderson has three great-great-
grandsons now living here other rela-
tives died long ago.
Smith lies buried in what is known
as the old Wilson graveyard, one and
a half miles east of the present little
town of New Columbia, Is miles north
of here. A lone cedar is all that
marks the spot. Postmaster U. K.
Smith of Metropolis, ILL.,, is great
great-grandson of John Smith, Ameri-
can Revolution veteran of this county.
Mack and Calvin Smith of this coun-
ty are also great-great-gr grandchildren,
and one great-great granddaughter,
Mrs. j. FL. eagle, is resident of this
place.

tricky and he may try to get
some of his friends to do a leetle
work on their hounds feet. Still,
with the trial coming off Satur-
day, we could make 'em produce
the hounds and if any of 'em
have done that, the toes wouldn't
have time to heal up like OF
Drums foot.
Rockby's wide grin bespoke
his admiration.
you're right, Uncle Jase. We
can block 'em on that score. It's
a good thing you called the neigh
bors to lock at those tracks though
Colonel Marcus Hannibal is likely
to attack your reputation for
truth and veracity particularly
after your confession a little
while ago."
"Yesh," drawled Jase, he
shore knows I'm a liar cam
paigned for him when he was
running for the legislature"
After dinner they retired to
the deepest shade of the porch
where Jase went over every de-
tail of the evidence against Drum
and when he had finished Rock
by leaned back against the wall
and rellghted his pipe.

when you were in the yard?" he
demanded. "Wisps of wool are
usually found, | have heard"
Il did, but Drums teeth was

Jase shrugged negatively, but |
said nothing.
Then we've got to make out
our case on those tracks in the
mud, and l believe they'll up, no
matter what the Colonel does.
But keep your ear to the ground
over here, Uncle Jase, and I'll do
the same in town. If anything
happens in the meantime, let me
know and I'll be on hand early
Saturday morning at the Squire's.
Rockby stood up, but Jase
waved him back to his chair
with a single gesture.
TOO hot to ride yet, Rock" he
said softly. "Ye can make it in
the cool of the evening after
supper"
Rocky leaned back against
the wall with a sigh of content,
for the afternoon like most sum-
mer Sundays in the Cumberlands
brought a blissful drowsiness,
lulled by tinkling cow-bells and
the lazy call of the crow winding
its perpetual flight here and
there over the mountain tops.
Speaking of the Colonel's
jumping on my reputation for
the truth, did we ever hear the
tale of what happened that time
he was trying Ranse Short an
Red Jim Mollins at Buskirk's
lumber camp?'
Never did," With a half
smile Rockby awaited the yarn.
"Twas something like this"
began Jase, teetering back in his
chair and propping both feet on
tie railing. Nigh about twenty
Years ago, when the buskilk pee
pie were getting out the yellow
poplar timber on Elkhorn and
Paw-Paw creeks, they had Their

Organized Big Business
Proposes Private Trial
For FOrd-SapirO Dispute

DETROIT, May 1.-THE Board
Of Commerce has made advances
to both Henry Ford and Aaron
Sapiro to have Sapiro's $1,000, 900
libel suit against Ford heard by
the organizations arbitration COM
mittee rather than in federal
courts, it was revealed today.
According to William H. Gala
CHER, attorney for Sapiro, he ac-
cepted the proposal but Stewart
Hanley, attorney for Ford, rejected
it.
The offer was made in a letter
to opposing attorneys. The letter
did not reveal the. organizations
reason for making the proposal,
but it is supposed that the big
business community is shocked and
worried at the public exposure and
ridicule visited upon both parties
because of revelations made at
the trial.
