Washington. Auk. 21. ? Al
though the League of Nations Is
sue la more or loss dormant In
America, It Is still u source of em
buruHsint nt to the administration
here and will become more ao as
September approach"* and the as
sembly meets at Geneva.
The American government is
deeply Interested in many things
that will occur at the September
meeting. Secretary Kellogg, an
tlcipating the discussion* that
will ensue as to the value of a
disarmament conference, gave ex
pression to the views of the 1'nlt
ed States government long enough
in advance so that they would not
be construed as having anv con
nection with the September meet
ing.
Also, the problem of handling
the world court protocol reserva
tions is under consideration and
wtille an official representative of
the American government will not
be present to answer questions aa
was requested there may be an
unofficial observer to report what
Is said.
Even this is fraught with the
flTeatest delicacy us the presence
of an American observer may be
nlaconst rued by the Irreconcilable
element on this side of the Atlan
tic. and heretofore the Coolidge
administration has shown great
fear of the "Jrreconcllables."
Strictly speaking there is no
law which would prevent an of
ficial representative from attend
ing the conference of the nations
which seek to have explained what
the American Senate's reserva
tions to the World Court really
mean. Jlut the Senate having In
dicated that the reservations
ahould he accepted by diplomatic
note, the Department of State is
' Spuming that It is prevented from
oral discussions by its own am
bassadors and ministers.
This position is being main
tained with difficulty because the
various governments are truly
1 puzzled by the meaning of some
of the reservations. If the Unit
ed States should fall to explain,
then It Is likely tho foreign pow
ers will accept the reservations
with a statement of what they un
derstand to be the meaning. Then
the problem will bo transferred
to the President and Secretary of
State once more, who In turn may
call upon the Senate to decide
whether the interpretation of the
other governments Is correct. |n
any event. It means a resumption
or the world court debate with the
f chances quito remote that the
United States will Ket Into the
world court this yAr before the
Congressional elections and possi
bly not before 192R
Meanwhile the entire League of
Nations structure hangs in the
balance as the argument develops
over who shall have permanent
seats in the council. Should Ger
many be denied a sent, it h felt
here that the whole European sit
uation will have drifted backward
from the high point It reached at
l^carno and that an era of insta
bility may he anticipated.
Should the dispute over perma
nent seats affect the prestige of
tho league, it may In turn be re
flected In the world court debate.
Opponents of (he court have Insist
ed that the League is dominated
i^y political agreements and under
j^vandings among certain nations
^Hnd that the court would be af
TVcted by the same spirit.

Manten. Aug. 21. ? A silver
: thread of romanci linking tin* stir
rinu days of tin- sixties with the
present. was woven Into the fare
well prouratu with which Dare
; Cou lily 'h home coming week wan
concluded here last night.
| A mom: <111080 who gathered on
1 Itoanoke Island for the Virginia
Dare celebration, and the renew
ing of old ties of friendship and
| blood, wa? <>l ho Cartwflglit. of
; New York. head of a linn of puh
. lie accountants. Mr. -Cartwright
: was a son of Colonel Alfonso Cart
wright. a Northerner. who was
1 wed to Miss I^ovie 1). I't heridve,
[of Itoanoke Island.
Hurnside had just taken II nan
'oke Island, and was seeking Milt*
able headquarters there. He dls
! patched Cartwright, then a young
j lieutenant, with a color sergeant
? to find such a place. The lieuten
ant went to a large plantation on
the west shore of the island, and
was met at the door by a girl of
some 17 Rummers.
I "Tin* rest of tlo* . family were
awav anil the servants had fled,"
tttho Cartwriuht r? lated last
'night, nt the far? w? II se??lou.
I "The girl was staunchly Conf- d
jerate In her patriotic belief*, and
i was flred with righteous nwnt*
!ment at the invasion of the blue
clad army on Roanoke. Through
the windows, she saw two of the
j hated Yankee soldiers crossing the
yard, one of them hearing a flan
I furled on a staff.
i "She was no coward, this little
lone rebel maid, and she stepped
defiantly out upon the cook house
platform, am) awaited the enemy's
advance. The Yankee lieutenant
saluted and regretfully informed
her that lie was about to comman
deer the place for the use of the
general, und that she and her
family would be relieved of occu
pancy at once. Tim sergeant un
! did his Aug. 11 nd waved Old Glory
I over her head.
I "To her. it was the hated em
: blem of tyranny and oppression,
'(loaded to fury by the airront, >she
,tore the flan from the staff and
trampled It under foot, and stood
tremblingly awaiting the bullet
I that she knew must come crash
ling through her skull.
"Hut there was something about
|the maid that caused the officer to
'stay his hand. He told her dis
tinctly that were she not a woman,
she would hang on the oak tree
(that sheltered her windows, and
; he ordered her indoors. After all,
the place was not commandeered.
The gencrnl used oilier quarters.
| The lady lived to respect and lion
or the flag she had defied. Instead
I of hanging her, the officer Inter
married her. The old oak tree
still stands and in its branches
one may nee, not the dreaded,
dangling hangman's noose, but
clump* of mistletoe instead.
"The Incident never wa? report
led officially, but the officer and
lady had both, before they pasted
to their reward, frequently at my
request, repeated the story to me,
their only son."
Mr. Cartwright and W. Ilen
r.oodwln, of Elizabeth City, as
two who had returned for the
home coming, had place an speak
ers on the program with two of
Manteo's leading business men. II.
C. Evans and S. A. Oriffln. The
program nlso included several mu
sical numbers comprising a duet,
"Stars of the Summer Night," by
Miss Hazel Willis and Harry West
cott, and three selections sung by
the assemblage, all fully In keep
ling with the occasion. Noteworthy
among these was "Come Again to
Dare." composed by Miss Mabel
Evans, mistress of ceremonies, and
sung I o the forever hallowed notes
jof "Dixie,"
The program closed with a
? showing of the l,ost Colony movies
made on the Island live years ago,
and the unfolding anew of the
story of Raleigh's brave adven
turers stirred poignant remem
brance In the hearts of many pres
ent who had taken part in the pic

j declared It took nim nearly three
days to reach the island bv hail
boat from Klizabeth City on that
I lirst trip, as compared with live
hours on the steam era of today.
J He was on his way to visit a
[hrollo-r whu lived there, he Maid.
| and upon arriving in Elizabeth
? City from his home in Chowan
County, he went to the docks to
jtake passage on a boat to Manteo.
{He found none that day. but had
better success next morning and
departed in a small sailboat, in
company with two boatmen and
six mules. The vessel was the
j Santa Maria, captained by W. I*.

i "At (lit* mouth .of rasquotnnk
ftiver, we encountered very (hkk)'

I "ami a little later we decided to
ign hack Into the river, to anchor
for the night near It* mouth. The
wind shifted noon after we stnrt

spent all day in the Round. unable
to make any headway toward
Manteo. That night a squall start

? anchorage in the river. We had
eaten up all our provisions, and
| on the third morning, when w
started again, we decided to visit
another vessel which had anch
jored near us, to ask if they would
; give Ha something to eat. They
t served us a good breakfast, and
we set out again for the island.
We had better luck that time, ami
reached here that day."
The following year, Mr. Evan*
I sHIIcd In Manteo, and went into
business for himself in 1886. In
those days, he recalled. It was
necessary to send all money by
registered letter, as there was no
bank ou the island, and to top the
Inconveniences, the mail boat ran
on a very uncertain schedule, be
ing dependent on the vagarleg of
wind and weather.
The town of Manteo was estab
lished In 1 K ?? ?? . Mr. Kvans contin
ued. and the Hank of Manteo was
founded In 1907. Referring to
the bank, he stated that It had
paid 100 per cent. In stock, as well
an attractive caiih dividends, and
was on an entirely stable basis.

a sinlle that it took him three days
to get to where the girl was, and
that he came very near not get
ting married at all. He told of
taking temporary charge of the
lighthouse at the mouth of North
River, by paying a dollar to the
j keeper for the privilege of ringing
. the bell to hslt a boat from New

and hired a mule to carry him to

arriving there Just In time to see
(the train leave. He succeeded In
getting aboard a freight a little
later, however, and finally reached
Chowan County and was married.
In his reminiscences, Mr. Grif
fin dealt mainly with the improve
ment in schools in Dare, recalling
that 30 years ago there were only
a few, employing one teacher
each, and running for a three
months' term, usually In the sum
mer. He estimated the entire
I of the county's school property as
! $10,000 to 910. 000. as Compared
wlrti $200,000 today.
Graduates from Dare's high
schools today, he continued, are
? accepted without exHinlnatlon In
??very college In the country, and
school terms run from seven to
eight months.
"It Is money, time and energy
I well spent, Mr. Orlffln declared
