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.

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

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

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
