Hunt, the Mighty- Hunter, and Some of His Hunts," was the subject of an interesting lecture before the Dauphin County Historical Society last evening by the Rev. Dr. Silas C. Swallow. Dr. Swallow was a personal friend of the Rev. Thomas P. Hunt and the mate rial for the lecture was based on his personal experiences with, and reminiscences of, this mighty hunter. Exhibits Relics Dr. Hugh Hamilton exhibited be fore the Harrisburg Historical So ciety last night two interesting I relies of tha Revolutionary War. Two horns, the property of a Mr. Brown, of Philadelphia, were sent to Nuss & Co., South Cameron street, this city for certain, repairs. The horns were used by musicians In! General George Washington's army, and received a baptism of fire al I Valley Forge. Dr. Hamilton, who has been for j 3 7 years the examining physician in | this city for the Regular Army, was i greatly interested in the unique in- ( struments, and prepared an address I which was given before the His torical Society. Dr. Swallow said in part: "The Rev. Thomas P. Hunt was a hero, a | philanthropist, a reformer, a states man in the truest sense of that | word. He was a Christian patriot of j the Nineteenth Century. He believed | in 'One flag, one land, one heart, I one hand, one nation evermore!' * "He was born in Virginia in 1794 I and died in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., in I 1880 and hence was 86 years old at his death. He inherited slaves and freed them. He probably traveled J more miles, delivered more temper- j ance addresses and pledged more j persons to total abstinence than any j other man of his period. Early in j the Civil War he offered his services to the Union Army as a private, but was rejected because less than five feet high. More than sixty-flve years old and a hunchback he was accepted as a chaplain of cavalry and though no more ludicrous sight could j be imagined than, 'Hunt on horse ; back," yet he was the hero and j idol of his regiment and division. He was a graduate of Hampton and Sydney College, a Presbyterian min ister of note during the middle third of the Nineteenth Century, an#a re former and lecturer of state and na- j tion-wide fame. "Physically he was a duplicate of the Greek monk, Peanude's, descrip- : tion of the Thcacian. fabulist, Aesop. Namely: 'Exceedingly deformed, his head a comical shape, his belly pro- ; tuberant, his limbs distorted.' Add to this that Mr. Hunt was a hunch back and you have a tairly Rood description of a physique that form ed the tabernacle for a cultured mind, a logical reasoner, a religious ly philosophic temperament, and n soulful friend of God and of hu- j manjty. , _ T j Mr. Hunter was a hunter. He helped mightily to hunt slavery to its death: treason to its hiding place,! and fashionable follies to their doom. If living to-day he would be a fear less advocate of democracy in its world-wide war on autocracy in its' allv of the allies, an advocate and liberal patron of Liberty Bonds and possibly on horseback in France stimulating by his presence srnd j voice the thousands of Sammees now j battling for world-wide freedom. j Yes, if living to-day Mr. Hunt would i be in the fore-front of the fray." Steel Prices Cut in Half to Aid in War Work Washington. Oct. 12.
