TODAY’S YESTERDAYS Oct. 13, 1774 —In Carlisle, Pa., the wife of John George Ludwig, an im poverished immigrant from the Pal intine, gave birth to a daughter who was to be a drudge all her life, and a heroine for a day. They named her Molly Ludwig. History knows her as “Molly Pitcher.” She was 33 and eight years mar ried to John Hays, a barber, when the battle of Monmouth was fought. She had followed her husband, a gun ner in Proctor’s First Pennsylvania Artillery, Continental Line, into the field. It was a common thing in those days for a wife to accompany her husband to war, to do his cook ing and laundering. Many histories say that John Hays was killed at his gun in the battle and that Molly took his place. Actual ly, Hays was overcome with the heat —the mercury being 96 in the shade. Molly had kept the gun itself from overheating by rushing water from a nearby brook and pouring it over the sizzling iron. When her husband fell, she took his place and manned it so capably that Gen. Greene took note and commended her Gen. Wash- j ington, who made her a sergeant. As such she remained in the army eight years with her husband. Thereafter she worked as cook and launderess for soldiers, and married another one, Sergt. George McCauley, a worthless man who simply lived on her earnings. Forty four years after Monmouth a legislator discovered her scrubbing floors in Carlisle court house and obtained a pension of SBO a year for her. Much of the fame attached to Molly Pitcher really belongs to a Mrs. Mar garet Corban, another Continental Army camp-follower. She did see her gunner-husband killed in the bat tle of Monmouth and took his place, to fight until she herself was wound ed. ■ I ; Nor was Molly the only woman who ever served in the ranks of the Army. Women have served as soldiers in every war in which the U. S. has par ticipated! Oct. 13, 1812—1,000 invading Ameri cans under Col.

When was manufacturing- a de batable question in North Carolina? I 2. When was the first purchase of j land made in North Carolina by the U. S. Forest Service? 3. What and where is the Morrison j Training School? 4. What argument did Judge Gaston I in 1835 advance aainst the popular . election of governor? 5. How much rain insurance was I paid in North Carolina in 1933? 6. When was an act’ passed to em power the governor to have lotteries held for State public schools? ANSWERS I 1. At the University commencement J in 1831 one of the program numbers was a debate, “Ought the southern States establish Manufactures,” The [ debaters were Henry J. Cannon, of Raleigh, and James M. Williamson, of Person county. 2. On July 15, 1911, in B\:rke-Mc- Dowell counties. The purchase wag of 10,160 acres at $6.90 per acre. This was the first purchase in North Caro lina and proJbably the first in the United States under the Weeks Law enacted March 4, that year. 3. It is a state institution for train ing negro delinquent iboys. It was established by an act of the legisla ture of 1921, and is located in Rich mond County, near Hoffman, seventy miles south of Raleigh. The school opened in January 1925 with a cap acity of 200 boys. 4. He said that it would be demo ralizing in its political results; men would be “deluded into the belief that they were fighting for themselves, when they are only quarreling for the selfish interests of’’ others. Judge Gaston said that if the popular elec tion scheme was established "you will greatly increase the violence and bit terness.” Until that time the gover nor had been elected by the legisla ture. It was changed that year. 5. A total of $13,217 in risks was written. The premiums . amounted to $1,137, and $1,293 was paid in losses. 6. In 1825 William N. Sneed, sena tor from Granville County, offered such a bill. r HENDERSON, (N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH, TUESDAY. OCTOBER 13, 1036 refusing to aid them because, they said, their enlistment did not re quire them to leave the country! 20 Years Ago Today—The World War. The Steamer Carmarthenshire, Capt. Wakeman, left London with shells and TNT bound via convey for Genoa, on one of the most remark able round the world voyages in the annals of the sea. In the afternoon, before she got out of the Thames, fire broke out, and for hours she was in danger of spew ing flames and death along both banks of the river and causing great military loss to Italy, then in sore need of munitions. The crew con quered the flames and managed to get her in shape to go to sea in three days. Crossing the channel a heavy fog came down. To blow the whistle (would attract submarines. Not to blow the whistle meant a possible collision that would set off the Car marthenshire’s cargo. In the channel a submarine did get the Maine, one of the convoy, and Capt. Wakeman sent his ship into shallow water, where submarines could not operate, and risked grounding her. In another week, however, after be ing constantly threatened by subma rines, the sleepless, nervous crew brought the ship into Genoa. There they found orders to pick up general cargo for Singapore and Hongkong. In the hottest section of the Red Sea, engine trouble developed and the ship drifted helplessly for a day. At Sing apore a ship—the liner Warwickshire entering the harbor just ahead of her struck a mine and went down under the eyes of the helpless Carmarthen shire crew. At Hongkong fire broke out in one of the holds, resulting in the death of two and serious injury of four. Capt. Wakeman brought her home via Panama, In the Atlantic, she en countered a German submarine, and exchanged 100 shots with her while the captain zigzagged her to prevent torpedoes from striking. The Ger mans were poor marksmen and the Carmarthenshire reached home. Everyone of the Carmarthenshire’s difficulties came upon Sunday, which was the day of the week that a black cat produced a litter of kittens upon the ship just before she sailed.

The United States Chamber of Com merce recently submitted figures in dicating that 7,000,000 workers have been re-absorbed into private employ ment since the depth of the depres sion. It sounds pretty fair. But the chamber cannot give a break-down, industry by industry, of the increase. I tried to get one and it is not available. It was suggested that, by applying here and there to the secretaries of scores of different industries’ organi zations, I might be able to get the desired information and foot their various estimates up. The chamber however, had not bothered to do so. All it had done was to guess. How much are these loose guesses worth ? SUPREME COURT EASIER? When the United States Supreme Court reconvened the other day a young lawyer, aged 24, and his wife, aged 22, were admitted to practice be fore the august tribunal. It was quite, an event; photographs taken and all that. The rule, come down through Am erican history, is that no lawyer can be admitted to Federal Supreme Court practice without at least four years’ previous state court practice. This husband perhaps had started in on his state court practice at the age of 20, but is it likely that his wife started in at the age of 18?
