NORTH CAROLINA
IN PHILADELVHA
North Carolinians in Philadelphia
and vicinity, said- to number about
live hundred, are, under the auspices
of their association and the leadership
of Mr. Jacob S. Allen, their president,
paying homage to one of their Revolu
tionary heroes today under unique cir
cumstances. A pilgrimage is being
made to Kulpsville, In Montgomery
County, and services will be held In
the little Mennonite church, to the
honor of General PYancls Nash, whose
body lias in the burying ground hard
by, his. grave marked and honored by
generations of Pennsylvanlans for 146
? years, ahd for many years distinguish
ed by a; stately monument erected by
a people who were neither of his kith
or kin. Only a few months ago Mr.
Allan, accompanied by Colonel Bene
han Cameron of titcgvllle. North Car
olina, a grand-nephew of General
Nash, sought out his grave and con
ceived the thought that It would be a
fitting honor for the Sons and Daugh
ters of North Carolina to render their
ancestraU here by this pilgrimage.
Colonel Francis of ths First
North Carolina Continentals, commis
sioned Brigadier General In the Spring
of 1777, marched his brigade. Anally
numbering 5000 men, through Virginia
Maryland and Pennsylvania, to. the
auccpr of Washington In that critical
period at the patriot cause Just pre
ceding the Winter of 1777-78. With
his Brigade of North Carolinians, he
was at Brandywlne, and again on Oc
- tober 4th, he was at German town,
where his command suffered severely
and Nash, himself, was struck by a
cannon ball in the thigh. He was
carried off the battle-ground and lin
gered for four or five clays, during
which Washington sent his surgeons
In anxious solicitude for his recovery
His body was taken at Kulpsville and
there in the burying ground ot the
Hennonnites, was given a hero's grave
Some years afterward, the father of
the late Goveror Pennypacker, led a
patriotic movement for the recogni
tion of this early hero from the South
land and raised the money in German
town and Norri8town for the erection
of the monument.
A brother of General Nash became
Governor of North Carolina, and a
nephew, a son of the Governor, serv
ed long In high places of her Judic
iary Rystem. It is said that at the
close of the Revolutionary War Wash
ington. visiting in North Carolina,
took the future Judge Nash on his
knee and told him that he should be
proud of his heroic uncle, whose body
lay under Northern sod.
Tbp North Carolina Society ot Penn
sylvania, organized but four years
ago, for two-years under the Presi
dency of Mr. Gordon Cilley and now
under that of Mr. Allen, Is taking a
particular Interest in promoting the
perfection of the North Carolina Bay
