Cox. The 1000 acres along the
waters of the Ohio, given him by
proclamation of the King, which
had been surveyed and plotted to
him, went to the sons of his broth
er, Joseph. 1t is interesting to note
that the Gray family, for three
generations prominent as lawyers
in New Castle County, formerly
lived in Murderkill Hundred and
was related to Captain Caldwell.
Andrew Caldwell in 1774 devised a
farm in Murderkill to his grand
son, Andrew Gray. The latter
about that time removed to a farm
in Mill Creek Hundred in New
Castle County, adjoining White
Clay Creek Church. His on, An
drew Caldwell Gray, was a prom
inent lawyer Of New Castle and
the father of Hon. George Gray,
Delaware's distinguished Senator
and jurist. Scharf gives two ira
ditions as to the Gray farm in
Murderkill Hundred. One that a
detachment Of British soldiers Wis
tied the farm one Sunday and
drove away the cattle, the other
that the last reported herd of wild
buffalo was seen grazing there. The
farm in Mill Creek Hundred, to
which the family moved, is no less
interesting in that it is the birth
place of another of Delaware's s
famous Revolutionary soldiers
Robert KirkWood.

With engineers of the State

data on the cost of constructing a
proposed bridge across the Della

was rumored in Dover Thursday
that Governor Buck is contemplat-
ing calling a conference with offic-

advisability of going ahead with
its construction. 1t was pointed
out that under the provisions Of
the Federal relief plan 1854 100000

could come under that provision to
finance the project on behalf of

that money furnished by the Re

had not mentioned the grant in

When the Revolution started Cald-

TALON in the Delaware Government
in pursuance of a requisition of the
Continental Congress. Caldwell
was one of its eight captains. His
commission was dated January Is,
1776. The Council assigned to him
the rank of second captain. The
battalion became a part of Colonel
John Haslet's Delaware State
Troops. The time Of his departure
for active service was evidently
lust prior to the Declaration of In
dependence. The Delaware Arch
ives quotes a record of the old
Masonic Lodge of Dover, predeces-
sor Of the present lodge, which
states that Jonathan Caldwell, and
a number of others, "all in the ser
vice of the Continent and about to
ioin the main army do severally
apply for certificates, which the
secretary is directed to make out
at once and fix the seal Of the
Lodge thereto" This action was
taken June Is, 1776. The short

ment has often been told. White

it as early as 1858. It was located

RoCKNE SIX AUTOMOBILE
Many Interesting New Features
i'm the New Rockne Six

B
in the New Rockne Six
The new Rockne Six is the only
car in the low-priced field that has
true aerodynamic design, one
automotive engineer recently said.
Aerodynamic design, adopted only
in recent years, not only adds to
the beauty of a car, but also ap-
preciably lowers operation costs.
In spite of present conditions, the
sale of automobile radios for 1882
will show substantial increase
over 1881. This is due partially to
the cooperation of automobile COM
panies in wiring their closed mod
els for radio installation at the
factory. The Rockne Six is one of
the few cars on the market today
which has all closed models COM
pletely wired. The new Rockne
Six, the new car sponsored by
Studebaker to sell in the low-priced
field, was fourth place in registra-
June. Automotive authorities con-
slider this performance remarkable
for car so new on the market.
In a recent gasoline economy con-
test in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, a
Rockne Six travelled 3S.5 miles on
gallon of gasoline The winner,
who set the record, said, Although
I used free wheeling a great part
of the time, know I could have
got at least 25 miles to the gallon
by driving in conventional gear"
One of the newest advancements in
engine design is the cast iron cleo
troplated piston. According to
Harold H. Senger, local Rockne
dealer, this piston is plated with
a low friction metal which reduces
to minimum the possibility of
cylinder scoring. The Rockne Six
"65" is the only car in its price
class with pistons of this type.

BOARD TALKS SALARY CUT

Members of the State Board of
Education, meeting in Dover re-
Gently, declared that they were
willing to cut the salaries of the
officers of the board in accordance
with Governor Bucks economy
program, but expressed a desire
to have the money saved by salary
cuts turned over to relief fund
rather than have it revert to the
State Treasury. George S. Will
liams, president of the board, open
ed the discussion by reading let
ter from Governor Buck asking
what steps had been taken by the
school board relative to the econ
omy program. Mr.. Williams said
that he had already notified the
Governor Of the $4,000 saving
made possible by reductions in the
budget. After lengthy discus
sion on the matter of cutting sal
aries, a committee was appointed
to confer with the Governor to get
his reaction as to what is really
needed. The c ommittee consists
Of Mr. Williams and Messers. Brown
and Simon. 1t was generally con-
ceded that the money to the credit
of the State Board of Education
in the School Fund amounting to
several million dollars, could not
be diverted to the general fund of

morning, was released twelve hours
later without payment Of ransom.
The abductors had freed Mrs.

LESLIE HAS $42,852
BALANCE IN HIS FUND
Amount Nearly Equal to New Re-
duced Appropriation.

Governor Harry G. Leslie had an
emergency fund balance almost
equal to the new reduced appropri-
alton at the close of the fiscal
year, Sept. 80, records in the state
auditors office disclose.
From his $125,000 emergency con-
tingent appropriation for the year
1922, Leslie returned $42,852.10
to the general fund.
The new emergency fund appro-
priation was cut by the special ses-
sion to $4,000. Since the fund is
without restrictions of any kind,
Leslie may spend it all before his
successor takes Office next January.
