most of which were occupied by
persons coming to Magdalena to

offered to pay as high as Sc for a
room for the night. He estimated
the crowd at the fiesta at about
10000.

it so perfect that from 1888 until
the close Of the Civil War no
changes were made in it.
Ornate Mansion Planned
In 1853 the son purchased the
site on which "Longwood", the or
nate mansion, was to be erected,
just outside of the city. Grand
mansions were no novelty, for there
are many here, some of them said
to be the finest homes in the south.
This, however, was to be the grand
est of them all.
1t was designed along Oriental
lines and built on the plans drawn
up by one Sloan of Philadelphia.
It was four stories high, surmount-
ed by domed cupola.
In 1860. the top of the cupola
was the highest point in the south.
The shape of the house, which
stands to this day, is octagonal,
eight rooms opening from the ro-
tunda. Finishing touches and the
painting were being done in 1861
when the war broke out. The
painters were on the second floor
when word came of the firing on
Fort Sumter. The painters in their
haste to enlist dropped their
brushes and left the paints right
where they stood.
War Ruined Fortune
The war cost the Nuts their for
tune. Completion of the stately
home was delayed and to this day
the finishing of the second and
third floors remains to be done.
The house is still well preserved,
however, despite its incompleted
portion.
And the paint pots still stand
there, covered with dust, and wait
ing for that eventful day when
work will be resumed. They have
become something of a shrine to
the townspeople who, having for
gotten their fued with the North.
still regard with reverence the
spirit which sent thousands of
Confederate soldiers to combat the
invasion of the northern troops.
Some day, the old timers tell
visitors, the work will be finished
when the painters get around to
it."

 Company I in Front Line
 Several hundred men from Con necticut, including many from New Britain, were killed in the advance out of Belleau Woods and Boures- ches on July IS, 1918. Company l of the 102nd, composed of Meriden and New Britain men, was in the front line when the advance started. The drive in which the division took part continued for seven days and nights and on the morning of the eighth day, the 26th Division vas relieved by the 42nd or Rainbow Division. another National Guarc organization.
 The division was commanded by Major General Clarence R. Edwards and the 102nd regiment by Colonel John (Machine Gun) Parker. In the drive more than 1000 prisoners and 100 guns were taken by the di vision and IS and a half kilometers nearly that number of miles, in ground was taken.

26th Division Going Ahead With Plans For Its Belleau Memorial
 In Spite of Harbord Statement
New Britain Men, Who Died in Battle, Included Among Casualties For Whom Church in French Town Is Being Reconstructed Boston Lieutenant
 Criticizes Marines.

In answer to the charges made by Major General Harbord. Lieuten- ant Carroll E. Swan, formerly ar officer in the 18th Division and president of the YD club in Boston stated These marines think they won the war ard they didn't even have a full division over there. They had only two brigades. All the rest were MP's in Paris and elsewhere. They're the greatest bunch of adver- tisers in the world"
 Lieutenant Swan is serving on sev- eral committees working on the me morial. He went to France and as- sisted in the arrangements for it. He was chairman of the committee which raised the funds for the me morial and he obtained over s50.000. not a penny of which was contribut- cd by the public but all donated by former members of the division. Construction of the memorial has been under way for two years" lieutenant Swan states, and the marines are rather late in waking up to it. The fireworks concern ing the memorial are probably sue Of the Americar Legion Month ly which told the story of the YD memorial in Belleau."
 Tt is absurd of the marines to say that We are taking any glory away from them. the lieutenant continued. Tn the first place, we are not erecting a memorial in Bel leau Woods. We are erecting one in the town of Belleau. near the woods, town which the 18th Di- vision captured.
 We are reconstructine there a church which was demolished by our own artillery fire. The Germans were using it at the time for a ma chine gun position. It was five Or six hurderd years old and we are replacing it as a tribute to the meG we lost in that fight. A tablet will appear on it giving the names of all our casualties.
 Tt is being erected with the full permission and support of the French civil and military authorities and societies and with the appro- ,al of OUT own government.
 Captured Town Of BelIeau
 ''1t is true that the marines were in Belleau Woods. but they didn ' advance there. They merely held the line. We relieved the marines on July ) and held the line until the 1 Sth when we advanced and took, among other things, the town of Bel leau. Our division captured that town. The marines didn't. They were never in the town. We went on for about IS and a half kilo- meters.
 "Our memorial committee frs, went over the six sectors over which we had fought. They decided that | the severest fighting was in Belleau and that there was the greatest ac. compilshment of our division. We

Major General James G. Harbord. president of the Radio Corporation of America and wartime commander of the Fourth Brigade of Marines, of the Second Division, A. E. F., has precipitated a red-hot controversy over the erection of memorial n the town of Belleau in France ny the 2sth Division of New England in honor of its war dead. General Harbord claims that Belleau Is the property of the marines and the erection there of a memorial by any other division will distort history for posterity.'
 Veterans and former officers or the Yankee Division, the New Eng land National Guard division in the World War. are indignan over the charges of General Harbord A score or more of the members of the Nan- kee Division Memorial and Pilgrim age committee have declared that General Harbord's comments are ridiculous" and they claim that of- fcial records Of the battle monG- ments commission of which General John J. Pershing is chairman, prov cd that the Yankee Division fought at Belleau and the Marines at Bel leau Woods. several miles removed from the town.
 Dedication on October 10
 Two hundred members of the di- vision and friends will leave Bos- ton on September 2S to take part ln the exercises which are planned in l3elleau on October 10. The Yankee Division memorial is in the nature of a chapel reconstructed by the d. vision in the town of Belleau anu has no connection with BeIlear Woods which has been rechriseened bv the French the "Bois de la Brl- gade des Marines"
 The o6th Division was made Up of four infantry regiments, one ot which, the 102nd, was recruited sole ly from the sGtate of Connecticut. In two companies of he 102nd reE- ment. half of the units were made up Of New Britain men. These are Companies F, and I of the First Reg iment, c. N. G.. which later were amalgamated with companies Of the same designation in the Second Reg iment. into two companies of the t02nd Infantry, 26th Division.
 General -iarbord claims that the Second Division saw heavier fighting in Belleau Woods than the Ne" England National Guardsmen and he intimated that the Second DiVi- son might formally protest the erec- ton of the 26th Division memorial in Belleau.
 Harbord Contradicted
 According to him, the Second Div isien was thrown into breach in the line at the Belleau Woods on June ?, 1918. to stem a tide of German storm troops who were driving towards Paris. For 12 days, the division. which consisted of the Fifth and Sixth Marines, the Ninth and Twenty Third Infantry and the Second Engineers with the accom- panying artillery and machine gun units, battled. General Harbord claims that on June 12. the division was relieved by the 26th Division.
 This is said to be incorrect. The 26th Division entered the lines and relieved the econd Division on July tn. holding the line, which included the Belleau Woods and the town of Bouresches and accompanying ter ritory until July l 8 when the coun- ter-attack was started. The divi- sion then started the drive to close the salient made by the German ad- vance and the battle has become known as the battle of Chateau Thierry.
