sometimes later. Seon
With his army Charles destroyed an
English division sent against him at
Prestonpans.
This victory gave him such a repu-
tation that he marched through Eng-
land to within 100 miles of London
which he could have captured, but the
Highlanders, becoming alarmed, forced
him to retreat. After winning the bat-
tle of Falkrik, January 17, 1746, his
Scottish chiefs forced him again to re-
treat to the Highlands where the dis-
astrous defeat of Culloden ruined his
cause.
He might have won this battle, too,
though his army was smaller than that
of the English, had not the McDonald
clan on the left wing refused to charge,
sulking because they had always had
the honor of hoiling the right since the
battle of Bannockburn.
After months of wandering and ad-
venture, Charles escaped from the
country. He never took the title of
Europe as the Count of Albany, until
his death at Rome, in 1788.
Thus the Cameron's star of hope
sank on the battle field of Culloden.
Donald Cameron, Simon Cameron's
great grandfather, was a participant in
that memorable battle and, having es-
caped the carnage, made his way to
America in 1745.
On his maternal side, Cameron was
descended from Conrad Pfoutz, one of
those sturdy German Protestants,
whose faith no terrors could conquer.
An exile from his native land for con-
science sake, he sought the western
wilds and was, for a time, the com-
panion of that famous Indian fighter,
Captain Samuel Brady, the history of
whose life is more captivating than
romance.
When Simon Cameron was about
nine years old his parents moved from
Lancaster county to Northumberland
county and his father dying soon af-
ter, he was early thrown on his own
resources. Young Cameron liked books
and his fondness for reading was un-
quenchable. The little printing shop
in Sunbury soon became a mecca for
him and in 1815 he became an appren-
tice to the printing trade.
His employer, however, suffered re-
verses and his office was closed. This
threw Cameron out of work and he
was forced to look for another job.
Soon afterward he went to Harrisburg
where after considerable disappoint-
ment, he secured a job as apprentice
in the office of James Peacock.
When he was 21 years old Cameron
located at Doylestown, Pennsylvania,

ability was therefore largely respon-
sible for the completion of this public
project.
In recognition of his efficiency as a
builder, he was chosen president of
the raod. The Lebanon Valley rail-
road, was another movement to his
sagacity and foresight. Not content
with these successes, he developed the
Northern Central railroad, from Har-
risburg to Sunbury.
When only 27 years of age he had a
contract to construct the canal from
Harrisburg to Sunbury, a distance of
about 60 miles. This and other im-
provements were sufficient to give him
front rank among the useful and en-
terprising citizens of the common-
wealth.
In 1831, Louisiana sent for him to
build the pioneer canal from Lake
Putchartrain to New Orleans. The
thrifty Pennsylvania Scotchman took
an army of 1200 workmen from Phila-
delphia to help do the work. This
achievement, which was culminated
successfully, brought him added rec-
ognition as a builder.
In 1845, after the inauguration of
Jam Polk, the position of Sec-
State was tendered to an-
r famous Lancasterian, James Bu-
chanan, then one of the United States
senators from Pennsylvania in Con-
gress. A successor was to be chosen
to fill Buchanan's place in the Senate.
Simon Cameron was the man who, at
this time, in recognized sympathy with
the Democratic party, was selected for
the wing of the party which favored
the policy of a protective tariff. Geo-
rge W. Woodward was, however, the
caucus nominee of the Damocrats; this
party being at the time strongly in the
majority.
The Whigs consented to unite their
strength upon Cameron because of his
therefore, of the Whigs and a part of
known tariff sympathidg. By the union,
the Democrats, he was ‘elected to the
United States Senate. In 1857 he again
was a candidate for the Senate and
succeeded in being elected over John
W. Forney, then universally conceded
as one of the shrewdest Democratic
politicians in the state.
Upon the election of Lincoln, in 1860,
the distant sound of the approaching
Civil War became instantly audible on
the southern horizon. As soon as the
new president assumed the helm of
state on March 4, 1861, and began to
look around him for those in whom
he should repose his councils in the

and in January, 1821, began the pub-
lication of the “Berks County Mes-
senger.”
In March of the same year he en-
tered into partnership with the pub-
lisher of the “Doylestown Democrat,”
the publication of which was con-
tinued until the close of the year 1821,
when the paper was sold to General
W. T. Rogers.
More determined than ever, Camer-
on again took up the trail, finally re-
turning to Harrisburg, where he ob-
tained a position as journeyman print-
er. Not long after this he became an
employe of the firm of Gales and Sea-
ton, in Washington, D. C., publishers
of the “National Intelligencer.”
In 1823, Cameron returned to his na-
tive state and was married to a Miss
Brua, of Harrisburg. In the same year
he became one of the publishers of the
“Report” a Democratic paper printed
in Harrisburg. He also was elected
State printer and received from Gov-
ernor Andrew Shulze, another native
Lancasterian, the appointment of Ad-
judant General of Pennsylvania.
The poor printer was now become a
man of mark, His official and busi-
ness connections introduced him to the
leading men of the state and he soon
came to be recognized as one of the
shrewdest business men of the whole
country.
Cameron early became conspicuous
in the public improvement enterprises
of the state and the projection of the
Harrisburg, Mount Joy and Lancaster
railroad. It was at this time that his
Inherent fighting qualities came to the
ore.
Railroads in the early stages of de-
velopment were looked upon with dis-
favor and the support of which, in any
marked degree was a waste of time and
money. But to Cameron, railroads
meant prosperity and individual gain.
In fact, his vision was far in advance
of his associates. His energy and
troubled state of the nation the name
of Simon Cameron stood out in bold
relief.
He was chosen as Secretary of War
by Lincoln at a time when the destiny
of the nation was in great jeopardy—a
fitting tribute to his integrity and abil
ity. Thus, seventy years ago, a Lan-
caster countian assumed the herculean
task of organizing plans for the mobi-
lization of the United States army, at
a period when all signs indicated an
unprecedented hurricane upon the
American continent.
It came with the bombardment of
Fort Sumter, on the morning of April
12, 1861. Immediately the bugle blasts
of war arose and the period which fol-
lowed required of Cameron a coolness,
sagacity and vigor of will that the ex-
igencies of the nation had never before
demanded.
General Cameron at once evinced his
appreciation of the magnitude of the
difficulties to be encountered and a
charactistic determination of resistance
that the crisis required. In accordance
with his plans an army was soon or-
ganized and the northern states were
placed upon a military footing that
amply shielded and assured the per-
petuity of the Federal Union.
The position was, however, a per-
plexing one for even the steadiest of
nerves. In 1862, therefore, Cameron
was forced to retire from the post and
was appointed Minister to Russia.
In 1867 he was elected for the third
time to the United States Senate. His
early exploitations in finance, engin-
eering were achievements which rank
high in the history of the country.
They were the means of developing
one of the richest sections of the
United States.
For sixty years Cameron was a
forceful figure. Perhaps he needs ne
other monument than the Northern
Central railroad, of which he was the
builder and of which his son was long
president.
