Lake Township Board of Supervisors Otto A. Biery, Sec’y New Frontier Fort History A new book on the frontier forts of colonial Pennsylvania has just been issued by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, according to an announcement by Dr. S. K. Stevens, Executive Director of the Commission. Entitled “Forts on the Pennsyl-. vania Frontier, 1753-1758,” this book was written by William A. Hunter, associate historian, a native of Mercer County and graduate of Allegheny (College. In its 596 pages it. provides a detailed story of the French forts in western Pennsyl- vania, the early Virginia forts in that area, and the forts built and main- tained by the Province of Pennsyl- vania as a defense system before 1758. Another volume, now in pre- paration, will deal with the British forts of 1758 and after, and with the later forts in Pennsylvania. The book begins with chapters on’ the frontier background, Indian rela- tions, and the military situation in Pennsylvania during the French and Indian War. Then come detailed accounts of the individual forts with extensive quotations of interesting contemporary sources. There is even a fascinating ‘‘do-it-yourself” dia- gram and explanation of how to build a frontier fort, based on the: directions sent by Governor Robert Hunter Morris to a commander. The present book is not a revision of the older Report of the Commis- sion to Locate the Site of the Fron- tier Forts of Pennsylvania, but an éntirely new work based on years | of research in sources not available | at the time the older Frontier Forts | was compiled, and it is done as a | history, not as report. } This book, Dr. Stevens states, is lone which every one interested in Pennsylvania’s historic past will want to have for reference and read- ing on an important period of our history, and the price of. five dollars is moderate for a book of its size, quality, and scope. Subscribe To The Post ‘ Civil War \ (Continued from Page 2 A) In Texas there had been the powerful Knights of the Golden Circle whose aim had been to join Mexico to the Confederacy. These Knights had tried to gain control of the U. S. military property in:Texas, and at one time had even tangled with the U. S. soldier in charge of the department of Texas—one Col. Robert E. Lee. Lee had said that it would be treason for anyone, even a Southerner such as himself, to turn over to the State of Texas the military property of the United States. Texas managed to gain con- trol of the property by having Lee removed and another man, more in sympathy with their + aims, placed in command. Houston had made Texas, and now he would do all within his power to keep the State in the Union. Houston had been born in Virginia, moved to Tennessee where he became U. S. Senator. After going ve BETTER RN “eormor® CLOTHES | to Texas, he commanded the Texan forces which defeated the conqueror of the Alamo, Santa Anna; they won Texan independence, made a nation of the section, and then finally in 1845 the Republic of Texas became the State of Texas. Houston became the first Senator to the national government in Washington. Texas did not enter the Union without a fight with anti-slavery forces. lined to the American ambassador a plan of his for uniting Texas with the other slave-holding states and forming the great Republic of Texas which would reach from the Poto- mac to the Pacific and which would include the western states of Ari- zona, New Mexico, California, Oregon, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Okla- homa, and most of Colorado and part of Wyoming. It was an ambi- tious plan, but not at all impossible. All it required would be the seces- sion of the Southern states and their joining with Texas. The plan was shown to the U. S. ambassador to With an automatic ELECTRIC dryer, you put an end to heaving hauling and hanging! Your. clothes and linens start that wonderful, *softer-than-sunshine" washed. Clothes dried the ELECTRIC way are cleaner, fresher and quick, At one time, Houston out- force anti-slavery people to allow the admission of Texas. (Which would have been better than the loss of the other states.) But now that a division of the Union was coming, Houston did all he could to prevent the action of Texas. Said Sam Houston: “When Texas united her destiny with that of the United States, she entered into not the North nor the South. Her connection was. . .national.” Houston and his fight for Texas and the Union was a symbol of the greatest weakness of the confeder- acy. Houston said that a state did not have the right to secede, that if the right was granted, it would be ruinous. There could be no stopping the action when it once started. After Texas was certain to secede, Houston fought for the indepen- dence of Texas from the Confed- eracy. The Lone Star Republic, he said, should stand alone. Lincoln, before he became president, wrote Houston offering to send federal troops to Texas to help keep Texas drying just as soon ‘as they've fluffier than line-dried clothes. In fact, a new ELECTRIC clothes dryer will turn out clothes, table cloths, napkins, bed linens and towels so fluffy, soft, clean and beautiful that many will need no ironing.
