The prices of lumber and mil] work, he had been informed, had increased 20 per cent, Dr. Reddick declared the city would not have enough out of this year's levy to put the building un- der roof, and Dr. Brooks contended the city had no right to contract to ext year's money.

A Most Interesting Account of the Part the trish Played In ‘That Mem Contest. able | Extract from an article in th day Cincinnati Commercial |by A. J. Couroy At the beginning of the revolution Philahelphia hod more leading mer- chants who were irish than any other city in the country at the time, and they formed an association called the! Irish club about 1765, ‘They met in- formally at Burns’ tavern once a week to play cards aud backgammon, and it was atone of these evening parties in 1771 that it was proposed to give perpetuity to the club by forming & society from its members to be called the friendly suns of St. Patrick. From this humble society sprang the organization whose glory is perpetuated today in every leading ity in the United States, The exact date of the organization was March 17, 1771; there were twenty-four reg- ular members and six honorary mem$ bers, nearly all of ,whom were pros- perous merchants at the time, One of the rules of the society was that the members should meet four times in the year—on March 17, June 17, September 17 and December 17. The political agitation from 17 to 1775 had its effect on many of the quarterly meetings, although the so- increased in membership. Phil~ adelphia became the central point of the rebellion, and when the famous committee of correspondence was ap- pointed there in May, 1774, five of its nineteen members were Friendly Sons. The first continental congress contained among its member ix Friends. On November 17, 1774, the Light Horse Troop of the City of 1, ard of the twenty-eight men who joised the! troop on the day of its organization, | ten were Friendly Sons and two; more afterward became members: When the news of the battle of Lexington reached Philadelphia, the evroilment of citizens at once began, | and we find the names of the follows ing Friendly Sons: Jotn Dickerson | (afterward general, who was to Peno- sylvania what Hancock and Adams were to Massachusetts), colonel of the First talion; John Cadwalla- der and Joha Nix both afterward } generals, Col, Ephraim Blain | fa.her of James G Blaine, was 2 tive member of the many others in the acity of m: jors and captains, As a consequence of so many of it members being en- gaged in public service, the) meeiing of the society in December, 1775 was small, But among them such pa- triots as John M. bit, and Antho- ny Wayne, afterward known as Gen: eral Mad Anthony Wayne, and the central figure in the Indian wars in Notthwestern Ohio, When the immortal document, the Declaration of Independence, was publicly proclaimed amidst the re- joicings of the people, the honor o reading it to the people assembled in the state house yard, Independence Square, was conferred ou a Friendly Son, Col. John Nixon. Samuel Hood remarks, in his sketch of the Friendly Sons, that it was an Irish- man, Charles Thompson, secretary of congress, who first prepared the Declaration of Independence for pub- lication from the rough draft of Jefferson; an Irishman’s son, John Nixon, who first publicly read it, and another Irishman, Thomas Barclay, who first printed it and published it to the world, At the meeting held on December 18, 1781, the society determined that they must have His Excellency, Gen+ eral George Washington, ‘,not only presented a guest, but must have bis name also added to the roll, and as the list of honorary members who were not of Irish birth or descent was full, they unanimously adopted | General Washington ‘as a member of this society,’’ thus making an Trishinan out of him as far as it was in their power so todo. Afterwards a committee was named to wait upon His Excellency and present him a medal in the name of the society, and to invite him and his suite to an en- tertainment to be given at the City Tavern, on ‘Tuesday, January, 1, 1782, to which many other notable patriots were iny ‘To the invita- tion, General Washington responded : Sir—I accept with singular pleas- ure the ensign of so worthy a frater- nity as that of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick in this city, a society dis- tinguishe? for the firm adherence of its members to the glorious cause jn which we are all embarked.

Ninety-three firms aud individuals in that city ged their property to support the credit of a bank to be established for furnishing supplies and provisions to the army. The total sum pledged on June 17, 1780, was £315,000, payable in gold or silver, and of this amount thirty members of the Friendly Sons’ subscribed £112,000, or mo.e than one-third. Robert Morris, the great financier, and a member of the nilly Sons, was prominent in this movement. I might go on indefinitely and cite cases in military and civil life where the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick bore a conspicuous part. Nothing of note for the beneflt of the young nation occurred with which some’ members of the Friendly Sons were not iden- tided, It was asocicty of heroes, some distinguished,some humble, but all an- imated with that spirit of resistance to oppression which made them such stern foes of British tyranny, The story of the American revolution con tains many bright pages, and among the brightest are those relating to the history of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick, And it is a pleasing thought that the spirit which animated them has continued in full vigor, and exists today in their] worthy descendants, the Friendly Sous here and elsewhere May the heroes of the Friendly Sors of St. Patrick and other patriotic Irish: Americans never be forgotten while repablican frcedom endures on American soil. They have givea freely of their blood and treas- ured in establishing and maine taining liberty in the new world, We of today should emulate their noble example,and also revive their glorious memory on each recuniing St, Pat ricks’ day. oo ee Don't fail < see st BICYCLES pe fanthet, prevtions whedl mieten tester Raylaa We nce the tomeeee AND B‘CYCLE : i scnael Sh iitoas ‘Ceciba Whee tate SUNDRIES... on Dae fail to call—remember the PADUCAH CYCLE WORKS 126 and 128 North Fifth street, near Palmer Hone.
