A MATTER OF HISTORY

that the "John Paul Jones Asso- I

obiect of which was to restore and I
preserve "The drove" house at j
Halitaw therein alleged m be the i
home of John Paul Jones I am
w ruing merely to call attention to
i mistake, and to correct it as far
is I e in, and very brietly.
" The (irove" was the property
of line Jones, one ol the niem

under our law, no such office as

Governor, became his successor. !
He .v as colonel of a regiment m'

"The (irove" and n would be un
just to Willie Jones, whose serv ices '
were so valuable to the State, to
say ih.it his home, "The drove," j
was the property ol another who:
had no claim lo it whatever. John ;
Paul Jones, I have heard, often J
visited at " The drove" as the j
guest of Willie Jones, but it as in '
no sense the foreigner's home, nor
can I see why it should be called
such.
