THERE have been many theories
as to the origin of this surname.
BY some it is thought to have orig
mated with the mountain folk of
Snowden, of Carnarvonshire, in
North Wales. The name has been
spelled Snowdon in some localities,
taking the words snow" and dun"
meaning "snow on the hill" Many
villages in Yorkshire, Cumberland and
Salop Counties in England bear this
name.
AS a surname, Snowdon, or Snow
den, seems to be most ancient in
Somersetshire, England. However,
from the sixteenth century it has
been widespread in the Counties of
Kent, Lincoln and Middlesex. The
name is also found in Ireland.
The name of Snowden has been a
distinguished one in Great Britain
in almost every period of history.
One Of the most outstanding British
statesmen in England today is Sir
Philip Snowden.
The Snowden family in America
was first represented by Capt. Richard
Snowden. Lord of Snowden Manor" "
in Maryland. He was a native Of
Birmingham, England, and on coming
to America settled near South River,
In Prince Georges County, Md,
where many descendants still live.
Richard Snowden belonged to the
Society of Friends and in 1885 was

say, it is immaterial which one he starts, but you are wrong. If he leads the club and takes the finesse, east will win with king and return a heart. Declarer can hold off one round, but then. when the diamond finesse is taken, west will get in with the king and cash his good hearts to set the contract.
 The thing the declarer must provide against is the five-three distribution in hearts. Four-four is not harmful. So, instead of try ing to go over to the dummy by taking the club finesse first, the declarer should lay down the ace of diamonds, hoping to catch the singleton king, and then play a small diamond.
 West will win with the king, de- clarer can unblock in dummy by discarding the queen and, when the jack of hearts is returned, de- clarer must refuse to win this trick. When the ten of hearts is played, south will win the trick with the king.
 Now south can safely take the club finesse. East will win with the king and return a spade. Of course, the declarer should go right up with the ace and four odd will be made.
