A—12 VIRGINIA PIONEERS ARE PAID TRIBUTE Landing of English 323 Years Ago Remembered at Cape Henry. By the Associated Press. CAPE HENRY, Va., April 26.—Trib- ute was paid by 2,500 persons here to- @y to the courage, fortitude and right- eousness of the brave little band of Englishmen who came ashore at this point 323 years ago to establish the first permanent Anglo-Saxon civiliza- tion in a new world. The throng stood within sight of a rugged cross, planted on the wind- swept dunes, as Bishop A. C. Thomson ot the Episcopal diocese of Virginia ed the memorial services and lauded the characters of the men who came ashore from the three tiny ships—Sarah Constant, Goodspeed and Discovery. The cross stands where the colonists are &aid first to have touched land to claim the territory for God and King and name the point Cape Henry. Forced indoors by inclement weather, the ceremonies were conducted in the Cape Henry Casino. Mrs. Franz Nay- lor of Norfolk, named by the governor to deliver the historical address, de- scribed the 127-day voyage, the land- ing at Cape Henry and the final settle- ment at Jamestown Island. Short addresses were delivered by Gov. John Garland Pollard of Virginia, Gov. L. G. Hardman of Georgia and Brig. Gen. William F. Ladd of Con- necticut. “As we stand on this sacred spot we | feel gratitude to God and to our fore- fathers who braved the dangers of the sea and fought successfully against pestilence and savages to found the | Bif greatest nation the world has ever seen,” Gov, Pollard sald. He paid trib- ute to the spirit of the doughty little band, including Capt. John Smith, who Was in irons when the colonists came | Des Moine: ashore, but later the leader of the group. ‘Gov.

S., Biographer Says| By the Associated Press. A search of State Department records has disclosed that the celebrated Her- rick-Bryan “lost cablegram,” referred | | to in a recently published installment of the biography of Ambassador Herrick, apparently never was lost at all. In fact, just 4 hours and 14 minutes | after the message reached the State Department, the American Government acted upon Herrick's suggestion. ‘The “lost cablegram,” in which Am- bassador Herrick in Paris, suggested to Secretary of State Bryan on the eve of | the European war that the United | States “make a strong plea for delay | and moderation,” was reproduced by Col. T. Bentley Mott, Herrick’s military aide and biographer, in World’s Work Magazine. The article quoted Mr. Her- rick as saying that President Wilson told him later he never had seen this cablegram. ‘The records show, however, that the Herrick message arrived in the State De- partment at 7:30 pm. July 28, 1914, and that at 11:44 the following | message signed “Bryan,” was dispatched | from the White House to Ambassador Page at London: “Is there in your opinion any likeli- hood that the good offices of the United States if offered under article 3 of The Hague convention wuold be acceptable or serve any high purpose in the present crisis?” This message, the records show, was enciphered in the White House that night.
