YmtiOU
London, Oct. IS.—Go. Jimi Ogle
thorpe, who planted the banner of
freedom, prohibition and anti-slavery
in Georfi*. found America a pleasant
■ad healthful place in which to lira,
according to the records in the old
parish church at C ran ham where he
was interred.
B«t it is clear from these same
records that the general hollered
England a hotter place to die in, for
it is recorded on the wall* of the
rharch in which Dr. Thorn well Jac
obs has just dug up the general's
honee for removal to Georgia, that
Oglethorpe sought to spend the lat
ter half of hi« life in England, dying
at the age of ltt.
Local historians attribute his long
evity to the abstemious habits ha ac
quired ia America and to his frugal,
quiet life in the moot sequestered part
of England. At the ago of 82, after
his return from America, it is record
ed that the general took to himself
■ wife who supported him throughout
his life and outlived him two years.
A modest tablet on the wall of the
rhurch in which he waa married and
buried relates in quaint English how
"he lived until the first of July, 1776,
i venerable instance to what a full
ness of duration and of continued uae
fulness, a life of temperance and vtr
tuous l«Tor is -apable of Setnf pro
tracted."
After narrating how his "discon j
■olate widow" died ia her 79th year,
the tablet recalls that Oglethorpe, aa
-haii-man of the British parliamentary

In this way the pvple will be protect
