was entertained in most delightful manner by Mrs. Wm. T. Northington of Prettville, Vice-Regent of the Chapter at the Hotel Morris on the afternoon of Feb. 6th.

At 8 o'clock the members and guests assembled in the parlors of the Morris, the meeting being presided over by Mrs. Wm. G. Estes, retiring Regent of the Chapter, and as the affair was purely social all business was postponed. The program opened with the singing of 'America" and was followed by other numbers for violin and voice by Misses Marquis and Klein of the Birmingham Seminary.

These were much enjoyed as was the reading of an old time will by Mre. Thach of Auburn. An elaborate and delicious luncheon was served in the Cafe, the long table being beautifully decorated in red and white carnations and smilax, and when twilight came putting an end to the pleasant occasion every one pronounced Mrs. Northington's meeting one of the most successful and charming in the history of the Chapter. Chap.er Report.

According to the established custom, the A. R. Chapter of Auburn was entertained by Mrs. Mell on the 29th of January, that being the anniversary of the birthday of Light Horse Harry Lee for whom the Chapter was named. On the morning of that day the Daughters with numerous friends from both Auburn and Opelika, (among whom were the Opelika Regent, Mrs.

Cowan. and the State Treasurer, Mrs. Dowdell.) met in the Regent's handsome parlor and soon like Peter of old exclaimed, "I go fishing!" for "Progressive Angling" held every one enthralled until at 12 clock the last game was called. Scores were then examined, the players being allowed to keep the beautiful hand painted score cards which had been prepared for the occasion by Miss Annie Fleming of Fredericksburg, the neice of the hostess. Three handsome prizes were then given as first, second and consolation prizes, after which elegant refreshments were served.

'At a late noontide the company dispersed, with many thanks to Mrs. Mell for a de-lightful morning. week later on the afternoon of the 5th of February, the Chapter held its regular monthly meeting at the home of their Regent. After the business session. Miss Lupton read charmingly the beautiful poem by an Alabama poetess, "'When Grandaunt Danced with Lafayette." The principal part of the literary program for the afternoon Was the reading by Miss Mary Reese of a paper on the visit of Lafayette to Alabama, After a rapid review of the lite of this famous man and his services to the "cause of liberty" In America; she described the social events that distinguished his reception in Alabama during his visit to this country as the "'nation's guest."

MARTIN-HENDERSON- correspondent sends us the following which we print with much pleasure.

I notice in The Montgomery Advertiser of the Sunday issue, bearing date January 27th, 1901, under the of the "Daughters of the Revolution' there is a query as to the history the famous Martin family of Carolina. take great in tracing these noble old familles and will hereafter copy a portion of the acts of the Martin branch, hoping it may serve or give pleasure to some reader. The heads of the record of the Martin family were Hugh and Jane Martin, who came over from Scotland early in the elghteenth century, probably about 1100; were married in 1720, were the parents of several children, viz: Alexander, Thomas, James, Samuel, Robert and two daughters, Martha and Jane. Alexander, the eldest child lived and died in North Carolina, served this State as Governor, was also in Congress and the Senate of the United States. He died in 1808, not married.

Thomas, the second son went over to London, England and was ordained a minister in the Episcopal Church, died in early life, not having married. James, the third son, came from New Jersey In 1774, settled on Snow Creek and married Ruth Rogers by whom he had four sons and five daughters; the sons were Hugh, Samuel, Alexander and James; the daughters were Sarah, who married Henderson, Jane Ann, who married Thomas Searcy, Polly who married Thomas Rogers and Fanny who Married Dr. Robert Hunter. James Martin was married a second time to Mrs. Patty Jones Three sons.

and two daughters were born to them-Henry, Edmund and Julius. Martha, who married a Scales, and Elizabeth, who married a Jourdan. Samuel, the fourth son of Hugh and Jane Martin, married the widow Caldwell and settled in Edgefleld District, South Carolina; he had one son, Samuel, and a daughter, Jane, who marred a Davidson. Robert, the fifth son. lived to the age of 72 and left two children, Martha, the eldest daughter of Hugh and Jane Martin, married Samuel Rogers, and there were born seven sons and three daughters.

Jane, the youngest child of Hugh and Jane Martin, married Thomas Henderson; to them were born several children, Samuel, Alexander, Mary Lacy, Thomas, Jane Kendrick, Nathaniel and Fanny Springer. The brothers and sisters of Thomas Henderson, who married Jane Martin, were Mary, Richard, Nathaniel, Ann, Elizabeth, Susan, Samuel, William and Pleasant. The latter married Sarah Martin in 1786, and had seven sons and one daughter, James, William, Maurice, Tippoe, Mark, Pleasant and Alexander; the only daughter, Eliza, married a Jones of South Carolina. The father of said children' was Pleasant Henderson, who served as a faithful soldier in the Revolutionary War under General Greene, making a Ane record; was a companion of Daniel Boone in his many adventures in the early settlement of Kentucky. For nearly thirty years he served in the House of Commons.

His gentlemanly manner, patient temper and generous heart won for him a host of friends. M. L. G. BATTLESHIP ALABAMA.

The Fund. Gotten Up for a Testimonial by the Peter Forney Chapter. In January, at the regular monthly meeting of the Peter Forney Chapter D. A. it was suggested that the Chapter rive a contribution to the fund for the battleship Alabama.

A motion, to that effect, was made, seconded and unanimously, passed that. the Chapter dorate $5. After deliberation, the officers of the Chapter, not being satisfled that so small an amount for such a patriotic cause should be donated by a D. A. R.

Chapter, held a meeting, in order to devise some plan by which a more creditable amount could be raised. As the motto of the National Society, Daughtens of the American Revolution 1s home and country, naturally the idea suggested itself that nothing could come nearer home to us than "The Alabama" and no work for our country could be more laudable than to work for the battleship, named in honor of the great commonwealth we all love 80 well. It has been somewhat of a precedent with the D. A. when a battleship is named for a State, that the Daughters of that State give the silver service.

However much we may have desired to, do so, we knew it was useless to have any such aspirations, or to make the attempt. So the Peter Forney Chapter took the initiative in regard to making a suitable testimonial to the battleship as a gift from the Alabama D. A. and headed the list with a contribution for $25. We informed our State Regent, Mrs.

J.1 Morgan Smith of our intention and we obtained not only her permission, but also her hearty wishes for our success in carrying out our plan. Every Chapter in the State was advised of our plan, either by letter or telephone message, except the Talladega Chapter. They are now doing a great patriotic work in erecting a monument to the Revolutionary soldiers who are buried there and we knew they were heavily burdened and could not contribute, as they were pledged to erect this monument. From the other Chapters of the State came hearty responses, which resulted in the following contributions: Peter Forney Chapter, Montgom- ery, Ala. $25 00 State Treasury, D.

A. 10 00 General Sumter Chapter, Birming, Ala. 10 00 Light Horse Harry Lee Chapter, Auburn, 10 00 John Wad Keyes' Chapter, Athens, Ala. 10 00 Martha Wayles Jefferson Chapter, Opelika, Ala 3 00 Frederick William Gray Chapter, Anniston, Ala. 5 00 Tuscaloosa Chapter, Tuscaloosa, Ala, 3 50 Selva, Eufaula and Eutaw Chapters, not fly organized.

Mo le Chapter, no response. Wit the above contributions from various Chapters, we succeeded in sum sufficient to purchase loving cup, The three anal ve to the cup three panels for Inscription. One bore the Insignia of the National Society, D. A. which was enlarged to the size of a silver dollar, showing up handsomely the wheel and distaff surrounded by the thirteen stars, representing the thirteen States, and the wheel, which bears the name of our Society, and the stars around the outer edge--all were brought out exquisitely.

On the next panel was the inscription, "Presented by the Daughters of the American Revolution of Alabama, 1901." The third panel bearing the simple inscription. 8. 8. Alabama." The cup was on exhibition at Ruth's for some days and was greatly admired. To C.

L. Ruth Son we are indebted for their gratuitous assistance in the purchase of our testimonial, which, for us, they so handsomely Inscribed. To Mr. A. J.

Miller, our thanks are due for the valuable assistance rendered in the free use of the long distance telephone. On the 4th day of March the loving cup was presented to Captain Bronson by special messenger bearing the following communication: March, 1901. Captain Brownson, U. S. S.

Alabama, Pensacola, Fla. Dear Sir--The Daughters of the American Revolution beg that you accept this loving cup as their testimonial to the Battleship Alabama. We have no boasted pride as to number for we are few, but we do, boast of hearts ever loyal to the sailor boy ho placing his name on the roll call of his country, risks his life for her on the briny May the Alabama, with her gallant crew of officers and sailors anchor safely in every port and should a foreign toe atack her, may the God of battle Inscribe victory on the banner that is nailed to her masthead. This the earnest prayer of every Daughter of the American Revolution of Alabama. Most sincerely, Mrs.

J. Morgan Smith, State Regent, Mrs. Amelia C. Wyly, Chairman, Willard H. Brownson, Captain U.

S. Navy, Pensacola, March 4, 1901. Captain Brownson acknowledged the gift in these graceful words: Mrs. J. Morgan Smith, State Regent D.

South Highlands, Birmingham, Alabama: Dear Madam-There has come to this ship today addressed to my care a beautiful loving cup, the gift of the Daughters of the American Revolution to the battleship named after their great State. That so distinguished a body of women should have paid the ship marked a compliment is gratifying to us, and if anything was needed to inspire the officers and crew with a desire to keep her in a high state of efficiency at all times, in peace or war, it would be the kindly interest shown by 'the gift. The Alabama will probably remain in this port for some days and if your organization will designate some day in the near future when they will do us the honor of visiting the ship, we will esteem it a privilege to greet them on board, and we will do everything in our power to make their visit a pleasant one. The beautiful loving cup awaits their coming for its christening. Trusting that we may have the pleasure of seeing you all and thanking you warmly for your kind thought of us, I am, my dear madam, Faithfully yours, The Peter Forney Chapter, naturally, takes great pride in the fact, that they took the lead, persevered courageously and carried the matter through, as our State Regent certifies, so creditably and successfully.

We wish earnestly that this success in our first patriotic undertaking, will give inspiration to other Chapters to go and do likewise in earnest and worthy deeds. Mrs. Wyly, Regent and Chairman. Miss Williams, ViceMrs. Charles A.

He' had seven sons and four daughters. If John Heard, the head of the Georgia branch, was one of these sons, he came over later, for his distinguished son, Governor Stephen Heard, was born in Ireland in 1740: John Heard with his son Stephen and probably other sons fought under Washington in the French war. Just before the Revolution he came with his family to Georgia and settled in that part of Wilkes County which was afterwards cut off for ElCounty, Three' sons are mentioned, Stephen, Barnard and Jesse, there may huve been other song and daughters.

The following testimonial from Mr. C. T. Smith of Arrowood, is as strong as the English language can make it. He suffered so from uremic blood poison that his wrists and ankles were swollen to three or four times their normal size.

For months he could not wear his shoes. Two eminent physicians treated him, but gas up his case as hopeless. Yet he was ent.ely cured by the use of Swamp Root. See what he writes to The Advertiser: "On the 12th day of May I was taken with rheumatism, which developed into uremic blood poison. My wrists and ankles were swollen to three or four times their normal size where I laid racked with the most awful pain and suffering.

I was being treated by two eminent physicians (whom I knew to be the best), but my case was, as my friends all said, hepeless. At last 1 knew the end was not far off unless relief was at hand and as my brother had insisted on my taking Swamp- my wife bought a smail bottle at the drug store and after the first day I found a change for the better. I continued the Swamp-Root alone by the advice of my physicians, and in all took twe. ve potties, when I laid aside my crutches and found myself a well man. 1 did not have on my shoes from the 12th of May until the 22nd of September.

The reason I am so positive Swamp-Root cured, me is that I laid aside all other medicine when at the worst and took only the W. S. CONNELLY, Of the Plant System, at Charleston, S. C. If a medicine will do all that is claimed for it, surely nothing more can be asked.

The proprietors of Swamp-Root are careful not to claim a thing for this splendid remedy which it will not do. As a consequence every person who uses it Is a walking advertisement for it, as they sing its praises ever after. Mr. W. S.

Connelly, who represents great Plant System at Charleston, is no exception to the rule. He makes the following statement to an Advertiser reporter: "Tampa, January 2, 1900. "Gentlemen--I beg to say that I have used Swamp-Root and find that it will do that you claim for it." slightest symptoms of kidney, Dr. Kilmer Binghamton, bottle of Swamp- Root and a from men apd women cured by Sunday Advertiser. at all Drug Stores and one dollar.

The law requires the Tax Collector to deliver a list of all' delinquent taxpayers to the Probate Court on and before March 1st, for a decree of sale and advertisement.
