Ina1ienable Rights

V7HEN the authors of the
M American Declaration Of
w INDEPENDENCE wrote the in
sDired words, I'VE hold these
truths to be self-evident, - that
all men are created equal; that
they are endowed by their CTea-
tor with certain unalienable
rights; that among these are Lie
Liberty, and the pursuit Of Hap
piness," they gave expression g
a truth which hls provided much
human endeavor with progress
sive impulse.
Superficial th. ';ers sometimes
argue that men re not created
equal, for. they say, MANY are
born underprivi,cged, while 9TH
ers inherit wealth and opportu-
nifty. This would make life, lib
erty, and happiness dependent
upon material conditions; yet
they are spiritual qt:alities, which
can be attained as hey are rec
ognized Ills attributes Of God.
1t is generally accepted in q
truly democratic soricty that dis
tinctions IF birth Or station do
not prejudice a mans standing
before the law. .. On page
106 of Science and Health with
Key to the S"ri9tures, Mary
Baker Eddy yes: - God
has endowed nian with inalien-
able rights, among which are
self government, reason, and con-
science. Man is properly self
governed only when he is guided
rightly aHd governed by his
Maker, divine Truth and Love"
This broader view Of inde-
pendence implies much more
than, emancipation from q for
eign yoke or from domestic Slav-
cry. 1t involves an absolute re-
lance upon divine Principle,
without which there can be nc
lasting health, liberty, or happi-
ness. A merely temporary sense
of life, liberty, and happiness
cannot be mankind's true goal
Christ Jesus showed the way
when he said (Matthew 6:33)
"Seek we first the kingdom OF
God, and his righteousness; and
all these things shall be added
unto you"
While it may seem difficult for
many TO believe that a spiritual
law is more substantial and pow
erful than any materially recorded
legislation, nevertheless this is q
demonstrable fact, and humanity
is destined to appreciate and &C
knowledge it sooner or later.
The Apostle Paul showed
clearly the difference between
mere unrestrained personal lib
erty, which is often license, and
true spiritual freedom. In his let
ter to the Galatians he. wrote
ISL, 40: "Stand fast therefore
In the liberty wherewith Christ
hath made us free, and be moi en-
tangled again with the yoke OF
bondage. For all the law is
fulfilled in one word, even in
this; Thou shalt love thy neigh
bour as myself"
Having once tasted true spirit
ual freedom, mortals no longer
want their own independent
way, for they have found that
state of perfect happiness which
the great apostle called '.the
peace of God, which passeth all
understanding" philippians AID.
In this state of uplifted con-
seriousness, life, liberty, and hap
pineSs are now and forever Sc
cure.-The Christian Sciegce Mont
\ tor.

Leading Poet
John LOfland
Poems OF milford Bard
Were Published In
M ny MetrOpOIi-
tan Newspapers.

The most famous of all Delaw-
are poets, John Lofland was born
in Milford in 1898, at the north
east corner Of Front and North
Streets. He was the son of Isaac
LOfland and Cynthia Virden.
After the death of his father, his
mother married John Wallace, a
storekeeper. The boys was sent to
school, but persisted in following
his own intellectual bent, and al
though his parents tried hard to
force him into the usual country
school education of that day. they
appear to have finally given up in
despair and to have allowed him
to study only those things that he
liked. AT the age of II, he began to
read medicine with his cousin.
James P. LOfland. When he was
through his course of reading with
DR.. LOfland, he attended a series of
lectures in Philadelphia for three
winters at the University of Pen
nsylvania. While there, he was ex-
travagant in his dress, fond of high
living, and had a great passion for
the theatre. Owing to a quarrel
with one of the Professors, he fail
ed to graduate, so that he came
Milford chronicle., 1949-10-28

home with an empty purse with
cut profession.
He tried teaching at the Milford
Academy, but stopped, he said, be-
cause he had not the patience to
teach the dull students, and liked
cnly bright ones. He did however
tutor his half-brother and half-sis-
ter, John and Elizabeth Wallace.
AS to his literary preferences, we
have his sisters recollection that
that he was fond of Shakespeare,
Ossian, DR.. Johnson, and Gildsmith.
He himself tells us that before he
was 20, he was grounded in many
Of the French encyclopedias; men
such as VOltaire, D'Alembert, Mon
tesiOu. His real profession was that
of a literary agent for all and sun
dry. For a small fee, he would pre-
pare a Fourth of July Oration for
q political, or a love letter for a
lanquishing swain, or a copy of the
numerous labors which were most
in demand in an age when not
everyone read or wrote.
Early in life he fell in love with
Miss Mitchell, whose father, ang-
cred at the bad habits of intemper-

Gov. Burton
Maintained
States Rights
During Civil War Gov.
From Milford VigOr-
Ously Fought To Retain
Rights Of Delaware.

William Burton was born Octo-
Der Is, 1889, the son Of John Bur
ton and Mary Vaughan. His boy
hood was spent on his fathers
farm and he obtained his education
in the local Academy. He studied
medicine under DR.. Sudler, and was
graduated from the Medical De-
partment of the University of Pen
nsylvaina. He then began the pra-
tice of his profession at Lewes, but
soon moved to Milford where he
lived during the rest of his career.
Political feeling in the State ne
yer ran so high as it did during the
term Of Office of Governor Burton.
He was elected Governor in 1858
and his term expired in January
1868. With the exception Of the city
of Wilmington, the State was viol-
emily southern in its sympathies,
and with these sentiments the
Governor was in perfect accord. So
/ far as he was able, he restricted
what he and most Delawarans con-
sidered the Governments illegal
call for troops to invade sister
states, and in general played an in
dependent and heroic political part
in those trying times. He bent his
efforts during his entire term TO-
ward an endeavOr to comply with
the demands of the Federal Cover
nment whenever they were legel
and at the same time to vigorously
maintain the rights Of Delaware
as a State.
Governor Burton was also a me-
dical doctor, and is remembered in
his home town as a capable practi-
toner and friendly adviser. He was
also warm supporter of the Pro
testant Episcopal Church, and for
many years was Senior Warden ol
/ Christ Church.

Milford's Early
War S care
By ]. P. Steward, Jr.

Shortly after Milford was incor-
ported it became the victim of q
war scare when it was rumored that
the British were about to invade
this section of the state. This was
heightened into a panic with the
report that British war ships were
anchored off Lewes and that Mil
ford was in the path of advance
between there and Philadelphia.
In the late zoos an Englishman
came to Milford Neck in which
section he had received a grant
of land. His name was Colonel John
Wood. Learning of the war scare,
and also wishing to protect his
holding in this section he recruited
and organized a regiment of SOL
diers which were known as 1.-THE
Home Guards" He equipped this
regiment at his own expense, and
they were drilled at a spot near
where ThOmpsOnville now stands.
With a regiment of soldiers ready
to fight under the leadership of a
trained colonel the tension of the
war scare was eased to a consider
able extent.
Colonel Wood married for his
first wife, Mary MOllesOn, whose
brother was elected Governor of
Delaware, but died before he was
inaugurated They had one daugh-
ter, Catherine, who married Charles
Steward, a silversmith of Philadel-
phia.
Their two children, Aaron and
John, who married respectively a
Causey and a Thompson, played
prominent parts in the early 1900
business development of Milford.
The Sipples of Milford Neck are
direct descendants of the Molle-
sons, and Mrs. Al. Webb of Thomp-
sOnville, who was a Sipple, has a
very valuable set of silver spoons
that were the property of Colonel
Wood.
In honor and memory of the pa
triOtism of Colonel John Wood a
monument has been erected on a
plot Of ground. and stands Just
across from the Methodist Church
at Thompsonville.

friends. However, she was able to

she replied briefly but decisively
to the note he sent her, and so
broke off the engagement.
His literary activities gained for
him the title of "The Milford Bard"
Many Of his poems and short stor-
les were published in the old Del
aware Gazette and in the Baltimore
Newspapers. The finest collected

But records indicate that it is true, nevertheless.
Ihe reason for this is found in a surprising fact:

VINO produce certain models which actually cost
more than the lowest-priced Cadillac.
approximately four hundred thousand of these
mgher-pnced models have been produced and
sold in the postwar era.

equipped exactly as you want it. Let that be
your economic yardstick as you select your car.
Bear in mind, too, that Cadillac is an eco
nomlcal car to OSOn, as well as reasonable car
to 6ny. Its freedom from the need of repairs is
sensational. 1t gives gasoline mileage which
actually approaches that of the lowest-priced
popular cars. And it lasts so long that its full
hte-span has never been measured.
Better come in today and get the whole Cadillac
story. If you pay for Cadillac, we think you
will want to make sure that you get one.
