laying down and doing- nothing re
garding the celebration of the Fourth
of July, but the indominable spirit
that prompted the boys of 1776. was
f t ill in evidence among the people of
Murray and vicinity. They could see
no use in laying down and doing
nothing, and therefore even with the
discouraging things which had come
'o town, arose and made a celebra
tion which was able to provide
nmusement for the people and did so.
With the result that there were pres
ent on the occasion lare numbers
of people. Even with the limited
amount of money which was avail
able, they procured fireworks for the
evening an provided amusement dur

large crowds, who enjoyed the day,
people wno provided tne ce:eoration
of the day. There were over three
hundred automobiles parked at one
single time at the Murray Bathing
Beach, which was the principal place
of amusement, while there were many
others scattered throughout the town
and three traffic men were necessary
in order to properly handle the cars
and guard against congestion. The
crowd was a very orderly one and all
enjoyed the occasion very much and
went home loud in praise of the enter
prise shown by Murray in thus pro
viding entertainment on the nation's
birthday.

New York, July 2. A bill of sale
showing that Robert Fulton bought
a slave girl shortly after his inven
tion of the steamboat, and later ga--o
her freedom, is among hitherto un
published documents relative to the
inventor's affairs which have come
into possession of Columbia univer
sity. Among the papers are deeds show
ing that he bought hsnd extens;vdy
here and in New Jersey on (he in
stallment plan, the letters con -einin r
patent litigation and his arrest by a
man to whom he owed money.
The slave bill of sale, dated Oc
tober f, 1S0JL two years after t'.--first
steamboat sailed up the Hudson,
read as follows:
"Know all men by th"e presents,
that I, George McKay, of New York,
for two hundred dollars -old to Rob
ert Fulton a certain black woman.
Jane Letts. 2G years old. for and
during her natural life."
On the reverse side of the docu
ment, written and signed by Fulton,
is the notaion:
"The said Jane Betts to have her
freedom at the expiration of six
years from the date hereof, that is
on the ninth day of October. IS 15."
The man who had Fulton arrested
is mentioned only at "De Lacey." A
petition to have a suit brought
against Fulton dismissed shows that
the inventor owed De Lacey $2,500.
The expensive litigation that arose
over the steamboat patents is shown
by a lawyer's bill among the Colum
bia papers. The bill is for $l,57o.65
for services in three courts in connec
tion with "several steamboat contro
versies." The documents were presented to
Columbia by Samuel Glassman, of
New York.

Samuel's Farewell Address
Most every school boy and girl is
familiar with the last address of
'George Washington, who was the
greatest man of his age, and it could
be said with considerable truth, of
most any age. Washington was born
in Westmorland county, Virginia,
land when a young lad went to make
his home in Suffolk county, where he
snent most of his life when he was
jnot in the service of his country.
(With a love for his country far sur
passing the ordinary man, and with
Ian ability to work and a willingness,
(Washington was enabled to be of
! great service to the country which
he loved so well.
In this service he was of such
wonderful benefit to all the people
that he was named the Father of
His Country and rightly so, for he
was indeed much of a father to the
young republic, which his fighting
and clear thinking helped to create.
Like all men, there came a time
when he must pass the responsibili
ties on to others and younger men.
When leaving the service of the coun
try he had words of wisdom to give
to those who were to succeed him.
His admonition of loyalty to the prin
ciples of the American republic and
jto keep forever free from foreign en
j tanglements stands out today as the
I most sensible advice ever handed
i clown by a retiring president in the
151 years of our national independ
ence. In a word, his farewell address
to his fellow countrymen was filled
with the pleading that they perpetu
ate the government which had been
established and which he had given
the best efforts and work of his life
to create. j
The Patriot Samuel
Samuel was the last of the Judges
and was considered the very best of
them all. No sin of his own com
mission could be laid at his door.
Hi" one weakness was that be did not
exercise that rule over his own house
hold which would have impelled the!
sons to a ngnt me. i n:s question m
also one which has puzzled the ages,
as eminently rro&d men have been
jthe parents of most disreputable sons, j
Jit has leen said that "V, omen of j
: pl asure seldom are mothers of'
jstsictly moral daughters." However,
j we have as our subject today a man
I who was a man true to his God. and
his country. He, too. was a patriot.
for he loved his country, and was
'willing to sacrifice his all for it. He
:had given his life to its service and
!tho service of his God. In the latter
jend, as the surrounding countries
! were showing some sisrns of prosper
ity, the people wanted to "Beat the
Joneses" and they asked for a king,
jnct being content with the excellent
j government which had existed under
jthe Judges. This was taken by Sam
iuel as r.n affront, but God said unto
I him. "They have rejected me, rather
(than you. for you were my spokes
jmf ii." As in last Sunday's lesson,
j God said, "Give them a king."
Yi'Ith the selection of Saul as king,
flannel saw a change coming, and
felt that the peoplo were going away
; trcm God, and m lact tnewere.
i When the kingdom was fully estab
lished, he called Israel together and
j in an address which ha made, like
. the last address of George Washing
ton, said in fa'-t, "I have always
lived a just life and if there is any
lone wh"m I have defrauded in any
1 way, bring him here and I will re
' store the wrom two-fold."
! The people said "You have always
been just and upright and have nev
er taken any man's gold or any of his
property." "Let God be my witness."
And they sa'd. "God be your witness,
you have always been just and up
right." ! Gives Excellent Advice
' Sr.r.n.'e said. "Notwithstanding the
fact that you have sinned greatly in
iaskfr.g for a king, when God has been
caring for you, and led you out of
Egypt with a strong hand, delivering
you from every enemy, overthrowing
the. Egyptians in the Red sea. still
you have rejected God and his ser
vant. Despite this, if you will follow
your God and if your king do like-
. v ise, then will he remember you and
cause you to prosper, but if you do
not do this, he will cause evil to
come to you instead of good. You
know how God has blessed you and
made you to prosper, and I am ask-
jing you to follow your God and con
tinue to merit prosperity. But re
member, if you fail to do this, thou
jwill your nation fail, and your king
.as well."
j Then said the peoplo to Samuel,
j'Tray for us, that we may serve the
jLord, and that he m3y forgive us for
'our asking for a king." j
They came to Samuel asking for,
him to pray as they said to "thy!
God," admitting that since they hadj
'asked for a king they had rejected!
God and had no claim on his Icving.
kindness and that they were depend
ing on Samuel, the friend of God,
to intercede for a continuance of the
blessings which they had been re-j
cetvmg trom tne nana oi tne ah
Mighty.
I Samuel said unto the people, Fear
not. Ye have indeed sinned and donej
!all this evil, but turn not from serv-j
!ing the Lord and from following
Jehovah, and turn not aside nor go!
after strange gods, for then would ,
you go after vain things which do j
not profit, for Jehovah will not for

make ou a. people peculiar unto

Plattsmouth, Nebraska
Fraying- for ILh People
Samuel said unto all the people,
"Moreover, as fcr me, far be it
from me that I should sin against
Jehovah in ceasing to pray fcr you."
While Samuel bad been deposed from
the position of Judge and was a man
well along in years, he might have
pleaded release from responsibility
and asked to be excused from active
work and great responsibility. The
people were unthoughtful and even
ungrateful for the great blessings
which he had brought to the people,
and asked that he mieht intercede
with God in their behalf, when they
had just completed the work of re
jecting God and his servant, Samuel.
Notwithstanding all this. Samuel
said, "I will instruct you in the good
and right way."
Samuel loved his people, even if
they were unthoughtful and ungrate
ful. Like many people, when every
thing goes on like a song, they for
get God and wait until calamity and
trouble comes, then they are cMn
their prayers for their own safety
and deliverance.
If you would that God be a good
Father unto you. do not forget to be
a pood son unto him. Remember
God and serve him if you would that
he shall bless you. Ee as worthy as
man can of receiving the very bless
ings which you seek.
