John Ellis, his father, "went with a small party and captured two Cherokee chiefs who were giving trouble during1 the re moval, and threatening a massacre. The chiefs were sent west. As the raiders approached, a sentinel cried, "Eastoehatchee soolacogee! Ellis also told how Col. Smith, known to the Indians as "Black Bill," because of his dark complexion, routed a crowd of drunken red-skins at Major Wm, Montgomery's spring in July, Capt, John Townsend, Maj.
Cowdrey, W. Pbsey, Carter W. Sparks, Major Wm. Montgomery and Gen. Hemphill were among the pioneers who possessed the Cave Spring land ere the print of the moccasin had faded from the soil. Life with the rug-g-ecl settlers of Rome was just one murder, horse t Vie ft or incendiary ire after an other. The country was overrun with vigilance committees, out laws, land speculators, soldiers, un ruly Indians and plain people of respectability who wanted to farm and conduct their shops in peace.
Peace and the social order that thrives in it was not to be attained, however, until the Indians were sent west lock, stock arid barrel. Tins meet ing" was vital because it paved the way for the Council pow-wow at Red Clay in October, which in turn brought about the New Echota meeting' and treaty signed Dec. It is expected this Council -will be numerously at tended.
The cause of Ridge and his party is g-oing ahead. The meeting actuall3r opened on the 19th, a day ahead of schedule. The gathering was supposed, prior to discovery of the above item in an old newspaper file in the I vibrary of the University of Georgia, to have been held at the home of Major Ridge on the Oostanaula, but since the item says it was to be held six miles north of K-ome, and several authorities as sert the place was "Running Wa ters," the conclusion is inevitable th?
Elbert Herring, Esq. Dear Sir: The people composing the council called for the purpose of ob taining the sense of the nation on the subject of the annuity convened on the day before the period appointed. There were between 2, and 2, Indian men present. This number could not by any previous measures or meetings have been anticipated. Schermer- horn was present and obtained their consent to address them on the next morning. The first day was consumed in discussions, explanations and vot ing on a proposition to divide the an nuity among the people by ayes and nays.
When the next morning arrived, Mr. Schermerhorn had a stand erected, so that he might by his elevation be the more generally heard; aided by the Rev. Jesse Bushyhead, he went into a full explanation of the views of the Gov ernment, and the relation in which the different delegations stood to one another; their people, the States and the general Government; which was listened to with much attention for a period of three hours. In order to insure attention, this resolution had been so worded that it would not dis pose of the question further than the single proposition was concerned; and by addressing them before the vote was finished, Mr.
Schermerhorn had, perhaps, the largest red audience of adult males ever before assembled to- gather in this nation at one time. They came, some starving-, some half clad, some armed, and scarcely any with provisions for more than one or two days. Under these circumstances, having a desire to be heard, Mr. Schermerhorn promised them rations for one day, on condition they would hear him as commissioner.
On exam ination, I found they might, under the 9th section of the regulations for pay ing annuities, be furnished at public expense, if circumstances rendered it necessary. Arrangements were accord ingly made, and requisitions drawn on Ijieut. Bateman to meet the same. I took occasion to say to the Cherokees, as they came up by districts, that let them vote the money in what way they would, it could not save their country; that their party had been in vited to express their views and wishes freely; instead of doing this they had withdrawn themselves from the ground, and been counselled in the bushes.
Why was this so? Were their chiefs still disposed to delude their people, when ruin demanded entrance at the red man's door, and the heavy hand of oppression already rested upon his head? To say the least of it, there was something suspicious fri their -with drawal. The officers of Government were bound to report their speeches to the Secretary of War, and the chiefs had shown contempt to the United States by -withdrawing themselves and their people into the woods beyond their hearing.
If this was not the proper construction to be placed upon such a proceeding-, the chiefs had cer tainly carried them off to feed their feelings on false hopes jmd false prom ises once more. The whole people were called up and the resolution read. Gunter made a few remarks in its sup port, when Major Ridg-e offered an amendment, directing that none of this money should be paid to lawyers.
This was seconded by John Ridge, which gave both these latter gentlemen a full opportunity to be heard. They went into a most pathetic description of na tional distress and individual oppres sion; the necessity of seeking freedom in another clime; the importance of union and harmony, and the beauties of peace and of friendship; but said if there -were any who preferred to endure misery and wed themselves to slavery, as for them and their friends, they craved not such company.
The Indians had, by districts, in files four deep, been drawn up to vote on Gunter's resolution, that they might hear it read? After the Ridges had procured the de sired attention, they withdrew their amendment, and the vote -was taken on Gunter's resolution, and carried by acclamation.
Ridge's party complied. If the other party did, it has not been made known to the commissioner. By the next mail we will be able to give information of a more sat isfactory nature, having reference to the future. It is a matter worthy of remark that so great a number of persons of any color have seldom if ever met and preserved better order than was ob served on this occasion.
Yours, B. Sir: Enclosed I have the honor to transmit copies of a report made by Col. Nelson and Col. Runners were sent over the country, and some of Ross' messages were seen and read by the census-takers, direct ing the Cherokees not to allow their numbers to be taken. In John Ross notified the In dian agent that he had determined to reside permanently on a tract of land reserved -within the ceded territory for his use; and in contemplation of the treaty, took upon himself all the re sponsibilities of a citizen of the United States.
Has he not, then, subjected himself to the penalties of the 13th, 14th and 15th sections of "An Act to regulate trade and intercourse with the Indian tribes," etc. One thing is very certain, that by sending his messages and holding his talks in the Cherokee settlements, he more effectually disturbs the peace, and defeats or delays the measures of the Government of the United States, than he could if he were the citizen of a foreign Government, and much better than one of our own citizens possibly could do?
Sir: Enclosed, I have the satisfac tion to transmit to you a certified his tory of the proceedings of the Run ning Waters Council, held on the 19th, 20th and 21st instant, to determine how the annuity oi the present year should be disposed of. The names are recorded as the votes were presented on Smith's resolution.
But all who were present did not vote on either side, and many of those who were in favor of dividing the money, finding that their wishes could not be carried, voted it to the treasurer. Some of the voters in favor of a treaty, having claims on the Cherokee nation, voted, and influenced many others to vote, in the same way; so that the vote on Smith's resolution can not, properly, be considered a fair test of the strength of the parties.
Ridge's party is increasing rapidly, and will, by raising the proper means, reach the majority of Georgia, Ala bama and Tennessee, long before the adjournment of the next Congress. The commissioners address ed him a communication -which has produced a proposition in -writing from him on the Ridges to bury the hatchet, and act in concert for the good of their country, and inviting them to a con vention, to pe composed of the intelli gent of all parties, for the purpose of considering their natural condition.
At an adjourned meeting, "held pur suant to notice from the acting agent of the United States for the Cherokees east of the Mississippi river, for the purpose of ascertaining from the Cherokee people their wishes as to the manner and to -whom their present year's annuity should be paid, by com mon consent it was agreed and re solved that the meeting- be opened with prayer, and the Rev.
After the solemnities appropriate to the occasion were performed, Benj. Currey, United States Agent, aid ed by Lieut. Bateman, of the United States army, fully explained the ob ject for -which this meeting was call ed; all of which was again fully ex plained, in the Cherokee language, by Joseph A. Foreman, the interpreter. John Ross made some remarks in reply ; said he -was sorry that the agent had taken occasion to be per sonal in his remarks, but that he was not disposed to take any notice of these personalities at this time ; that he "was aware that there was among us a description of persons who were called by party names; this he had not discouraged ; that as for himself he was not disposed to quarrel with any man for an honest expres sion of opinion, for the good of the people for the truth and sincerity of -which he called Heaven to wit ness ; and that if gentlemen were honest in their professions of benev olence, he -was ready, at any time, to co-operate -with them, when it would appear that they were right and he was wrong.
John Ridge, in reply, stated that so far as he was concerned he, too, discarded party views and sinister motives; that so far as he and those with him. Treaty , ps. Ross and his chiefs, he had done so from an honest conviction that it was the only -way in which the integrity and political salvation of the Cher okee people could be preserved and effected, and that he -was at any mo ment ready to acknowledge Ross as his principal chief -when he Ross could or would prove to him a better plan.
But till then, as an honest man, sensible as he was of the difficulties and hazards of the crisis that sur rounded, them all, he must act on the suggestions arising out of the case, though it should cost him the last drop that heaved his breast; that he had not understood the agent to in dulge in or intend personalities, but his explanations, directed by the law and instructions from the executive, necessarily involved the actors them selves; that he had and at all times would be open to conviction, when bet ter and more conclusive arguments than his own were adduced on the points of difference.
But he did not understand why it was, if Mr. As for his part, he -wanted the whole na tion to learn, and be able to know their true situation; that he -was ready to co-operate with Mr. Ross, or anybody else, for the salvation of his bleeding and oppressed countrymen. The Rev. Schermerhorn, com missioner on behalf of the United States, took occasion, after being in troduced as such, to rise; read his commission and expressed his satis faction and gratification at the pros pect of an amicable reconciliation of all party strife and animosity, and so far as he might be concerned in their affairs, he did not intend to know any party or distinction of parties; that he only meant to know the Cherokee people east of the Mississippi as one party in this case; and that he would avail himself of the present occasion to request that during this meeting they would select from among them selves a number of delegates, at least twelve or more, or any other number they might deem expedient, to meet him and Gov.
The commissioner then apprized the conductors of the election that he would, with their con sent, occupy their time on tomorrow morning, so far as to read over and fully explain the treaty to be offer ed the Cherokee people for their ap proval, which "was consented to by the agents and the chiefs present; where upon, Commissioner Schermerhorn re tired.
It is now a great many years since they have received the same. The annuity is payable to the nation, and Congress has given to the people full power to dispose of it as they may think proper. Have the peo ple been benefited by the use made of the money heretofore, by their chiefs? Have those chiefs saved the country?
Have they restored to you your fields? Have they saved your people from the gallows? Have they driven back the white settlers? No; but on the other hand, have you not lost your laws and government? Have you not been im poverished and oppressed? And are you not bleeding1 and starving under these oppressions? If this be the fact, is it not time to take that which will give you some relief from want, rather than to vote it to those who can not, or, if they can, will not afford you relief?
Silverware and formal china, however pretty and expensive, were meant to be used and this is a great time to show them off. With the dinner plate as the center, silverware should be placed in line, an inch from the edge of the table, and arranged from the outside — in, in order of use. On the left, soup spoon, spreading knife for the bread and the dinner knife closest to the plate. The dessert fork and spoon for after dinner tea or coffee should go across the top of the dinner plate, with the tines of the fork facing right and the bowl of the spoon facing left.
Napkins should be folded either as simply or ornately as you like, and placed in the center of the dinner plate. Glasses are also placed an inch above the knives and in order of use starting from the far right: white wine, red wine, dessert wine and water tumbler. Proper grits do not come in an easy to open, plastic-lined paper packet. So get rid of the Quaker Instant Grits and mosey on down to the rice isle.
Grits can usually be found either here or in the baking isle. Now that you have the dry goods, make sure you have some fresh chicken stock, milk, cream and butter. Measure out your dry grits 1 cup of dry grits makes roughly 2 servings and clean them by placing them in a bowl and filling the bowl with water until the water is an inch or so above the grits. Skim off the chaff and drain.
Now, dump the wet grits into a pot and pour in twice as much chicken stock as grits. Bring this to a boil, then reduce to medium-low. Add salt and pepper to taste, then sit back and let it simmer. Typical time is minutes, but some of the best grits sit for an hour to two hours at low to medium-low heat, just soaking up that cream and milk.
Play with and perfect this dish to your liking. Most folks, however, consistently confuse our flag for a simple representation of a moonlit palm tree. A holdover from the days of knights in shining armour, the gorget was originally used to protect the throat and block blows from non-projectile weapons such as swords. Since the gorget originally rested around the throat, the shape was that of a crescent.
In formal armour, the gorget was placed beneath the breastplate and backplate set and supported the weight of the armour. They were often equipped with straps in order to attach some of the heavier armours. By the Renaissance, the gorgets had already achieved an ornamental status and by the American Revolution, it could be seen hanging from delicate chains and ribbons around the throats of officers, signifying their rank.
The palmetto tree represents the defense of Fort Moultrie from British attack, as the Fort itself was made of palmetto logs: an unexpectedly brilliant construction, as the logs of the palmetto tree are incredibly resilient and absorbed the enemy cannon fire like a sponge. Either way we have a pretty cool state flag, and gorget is hard to pronounce!
Neighborhoods are convenient, and always accessible, since you are already in your neighborhood when you walk out your door. Successful neighborhood action frequently requires little specialized technical skill, and often little or no money. Action may call for an investment of time, but material costs are often low. Neighborhoods 1. Neighborhoods are where we all grew up a long time ago. Today, because of golf courses, shopping areas, subdivisions, jobs, schools, and a transient society, a neighborhood means different things to different folks.
Neighborhoods can be as small as a dozen or so houses, and be as many as thousands of homes. Neighborhoods are common, and perhaps close to universal, since most people in urbanized areas would probably consider themselves to be living in one. With neighborhood action, compared to activity on larger scales, results are more likely to be visible and quickly forthcoming.
The streets are generally cleaner; the crosswalks are painted; the trees are planted; a festival draws a crowd. Visible and swift results are indicators of success; and since success is reinforcing, the probability of subsequent neighborhood action is increased. Because neighborhood action usually involves others, such actions create or strengthen connections and relationships with other neighbors, leading in turn to a variety of potentially positive effects, often hard to predict.
Over and above these community advantages, neighborhood activity may simply be enjoyable and fun for those taking part. The social support that a strong neighborhood may provide can serve as a buffer against various forms of adversity. But in addition to these benefits, considerable research indicates that strong and cohesive neighborhoods and communities are linked —quite possibly causally linked — to decreases in crime, better www.
Time to Refinance Buy!? Think about that. Combine that Real estate guru Barbara Corcoran has already seen a tremendous surge in refinance applications — more than triple the average — and the number of people getting approved is astronomically higher as well, she says.
It is only once home prices start to go up that we will finally see a light at the end of tunnel, Corcoran says. Until that happens, we are still going to have to crawl out of this mess. Lock in rates now. Along with good credit, proof of income and money by means of a down payment or equity in the home, there are certain things every homeowner needs regardless of interest rate levels.
Use the loft of the club and your back swing to determine your distance. Of course this will take some practice so you know how to shorten your backswing to get the distance you need. You use your back swing to adjust your distance because you always want to accelerate through the ball. You never want to the club head to decelerate. Also open the club face if needed to decrease the distance the ball will travel. Take your sand wedge and swing at the sand.
Vary the angle the club hits the sand. Decrease the angle that you strike the sand until you can feel the club almost bounce off the sand. Feeling that is more important than the actual definition of bounce. The key is to have this bounce feel when hitting the ball out of the sand. Open the club face and aim slightly right with an open stance with the ball forward in your stance, slightly off of your left heel for right handed golfers. When you swing follow the line of your feet. Hit about 1 inch behind the ball.
The key is to get sand between the club face and the ball. This is where that bounce comes in to play.
