Interest in the benefit concern
to be presented in Wilmington May
goth by the Atlantic Coast Line
male chorus, is increasing daily.
Ticket sales, started last Monday,
are in excess of what had been
expected, and a capacity crowo
is predicted for the musical snow.
Some of Wilmington's Leading
women vocalists will assist the At
lantic Coast Line group by parti-
cipating in the benefit OF trace
Methodist Church.
Shortly after the disastrius fire
which practically destroyed the
room and interior Of Grace Metho-
dist Church, the Coast Line male
chorus offered to give a benefit
concert to assist in raising funds
to be used in repairing the dam
aged church. Since that time, the
recently reorganized group has
been preparing for the concert
which will be given in the high
school auditorium, Tuesday night,
May 20.
The Male Chorus has more than
forty trained vocalists, and many
of its members are leading in
church choirs in the city. Especial
ly talented is its tenor section,
with ten experienced voices.
Supportings the male chorus
will be the women's chorus of the
Thursday Morning Music club,
which will present to Wilmington
music lovers an English Madrigal.
The following members of the
music club will appear in the Wom-

quakers or those whom the excl
ted times branded as ~"witches."
The public rage against the
Quakers flared for about three
years, from 1859 to 1861, and
claimed the lives of Marmaduke
Stevenson, William Robinson, Will
liam Ledro and Mary Dyer.
Historians say the Quakers died
because the fanaticism of their
belief made them offenders
against civil order who walked
naked in the streets and called
down the wrath of the Lord on
unbelievers.
The frightened wrath of the peo-
pie struck down the witches in a
grim time that stretched for 40
years, from 1648 to 1888.
In 1913 Margaret Jones OF
Charlestown was hanged on the
Common after a trial with Gov
ernor Winthrop presiding and in
which she was declared guilty of
possessing imps."
In May 1851 it ws Mary Parsons
Of Springfield for ''devilisn prac-
tees"
In June 1856 it was Mistress Ann
Hibbins, wife of a leading Boston
merchant.
In 1888 it was Goody Glover,
who did bewitch the children of
John Goodwin"
They died by day. Those who
died by night cannot be traced
now, except for one or two famous
deaths.
One of those was that of Ben
jamin Woodbridge, a young man
Of the Gentry, slain in 1928 il
Boston's first duel by a 24-year-
old Harvard graduate, Henry
Phillips. They had quarrelled at
the royal exchange tavern.
There were many others who
were set upon as they walked in
the Common.
The d a ry of Laurence Ham
mond tells Of n in 1888:
This evening Mr.. Sampson
Sheafe was set upon il Boston
Common and knocked down and
robbed by two ruffians. One
Eimbleton being present who, it
is judged, hired them to do it."
Today Bostonians walk on the
common to look at the trees and
the fountains and to sit on benches
in the sun and watch children and
pups and squirrels.
Sailors walk the common with
their girls and when they sit on
the benches they run none Of the

Resentment was reported high
at Dusseldorf, Essen, Hamburg,
Hanover and Brunswick, with new

said trade union readers met in

BOSTON,, May 10. - Up - Bos.
ton Common put no flags for its
aforementioned dead.
Every year in the May sur ole
colonial flags with the circle o.
IS stars appear in the city's an.
cient burying plots in remem.
brance of the heroes of the rev.
olution and the respectable
yankees who fathered the nation.
But the Common hangs no flags
Tor the forgotten men and women
who died by the hangman's rope
or dropped in a volley from the
muskets of an official firing squad.
Some of them were guilty OF
crimes, others were guilty only of
their beliefs.
Boston Common is a quiet park
in the very business center of the
city. To visitors it is a sudden
green, unexpected as a spring
wind through an office winocW.
At the start of the 18th century
Boston Common was a hill f o r
the hangman, a violent ground of
public execution by day, and by
night an alley of cutthroat knives
and robber bludgeons.
When the execution drums
pounded, the colonials came
sometimes from as far as SO miles
- and in great crowds.
Executed bodies sometimes
were flung into graves Or the
Common. Sometimes they e e
left hanging on gibbets as N Eng-
land. and then they disappeared.
Nobody knows their graves. Their
names are names only to histori-
ans. Like Samuel Barber who
wrote a history called "B G S o n
Common" listing from Sept. %,
,637, the hangings of murderers,
Indians and nameless burglars
and pirates.
Barber names first William S.
Schouler, murderer. and then, fol-
lowing him to death on the Off
cial gallows or at n of the IA
NOUS trees like the ''old elm,
such forgotten dead a these:

Mary Latham, murderers; l 6,
