THE HARTFORD DAILY COURANT, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16, 1910. ISRAEL PUTNAM CAMP GROUND IN BAD SHAPE PRESIDENT OF STATE COMMISSION COMPLAINS. Trees and Shrubbery Mutilated. FIRES BUILT, WOOD PILED THERE, TREES INFECTED, To the Editor of The state forester, Samuel N. Spring, visited the Putnam Memorial Camp Ground last week, and after thorpugh study of the situation presented the following there are several acres above the camp ground that are treeless, it would be a good place to set out a forest plantation of pines.

The place is suitable for the growth of pine, and It would be an excellent object- lesson to those who visit the camp as a place of historic interest." Mr. Spring found a number of chestnut trees killed by the fungus and some of the older ones are affected. It is a matter of concern and deep regret, that some party or parties have piled many cords of wood on the camp ground, some of it diseasel and liable to infect the trees in the vicinity. Fires have been built on the grass plots injuring the turf and giving the camp a very unkempt appearance. Trees and shrubbery have been cut or trimmed by incompetent hands, often marring the symmetry of the plant by crude work.

The beauty of a tree or copse can be enhanced or destroyed by the skill, or lack of it, in the hand of him who wields the blade. Never has the necessity of following Mr. Parker's plans closely, been 80 apparent as at the present. These plans, which were unanimously adopted, after the commission found the keeper preparing to lay out a ball ground for the Rogers Peet boys, between the monument and soldiers' graves, called for a competent man who should ilve on the grounds in the house erected by the state for that purpose, at a cost of more than $3,000. The superintendent must report daily of his work and the conditions at the camp.

There has been no full meeting of the commission since November 18, Messrs. Rockwell, Bartram, Hill and Hodge being absent. Senator Bartram has suggested that inasmuch as the keeper is incompetent his (the senator's) brother, who lives near should be employed as superintendent at a certain rate per hour. 'The plan does not appeal to Colonel Pickett, Mr Keith or myself. Whatever qualifications the gentleman may have, 11 means a divided responsibility, and the state has provided ample accommodations for the party in charge That the work of the commission might be performed in a systematio and business like manner, that would commend itself to the public, a set of by-laws were adopted in October.

The by-law relating to expenditures is as bills or other indebtedness to be endorsed as correct and properly vouched for by the auditor, after which they may be ordered paid by a two-thirds vote of the members present at any properly called meeting; except that the commission may at its annual or subsequent meeting order the wages of the superintendent and other regular employees to be paid at stated times without formal vote each month." There is a petition to revise the above and other tanglefoot laws. Some $200 has been paid out since the last meeting, and the latter part of the clause has never been acted upon. There is a strange disposition on the part of the public to question when the "bars are let down where the pasture is green, and the future can safely be entrusted to my neighbor and ine." Mr. Parker is our landscape architect. He is entitled by the by-laws to make suggestions as to the restoration and beautifying of the camp, but "no plan shall be executed without a vote of the commission." He is to receive no compensation.

The call for the meeting calls for the "restriction of his powers." The terrifying power vested in Mr. Parker is the privilege of suggestion. Lump In Your Stomach Stuart's sia Tablets will dissolve it at once. Enjoyevery meal. Eat your foodwith zest.

Not far away from where I sit today, there stands a granite shaft that towers far up in this southern air and graces with its shapely form the prettiest avenue in all the land. Fronting a large, imposing temple of justice, flanked by long and graceful lines of stalwart oak and elm that shadow and adorn the broad domain of fair Green street, it wears above its granite heart a marble tablet bearing the Georgia coat of arms, while graven among its old-time symbols stand the names of Button Gwinnett, Lyman Hall and George Walton, three of Georgia's honored sons. For sixty years it has stood a silent. patient witness Georgia's gratitude. Why were these men thus honored? Georgia was the youngest of the thirteen colonies.

the baby child petted and favored by its English mother. Settled and organized under a special charter from the English king and bearing his royal name, it received the fostering care of the mother country through all its childhood years. Aside from bountles, granted for the encouragement silk culture and for many agricultural products, £200,000 were drawn from the English treasury to aid its struggling life. When the first notes of resistance to British rule were sounded, it seems but natural therefore that this petted child should have been slow to respond. The first provincial congress called to meet at Savannah for the purpose of allying Georgia with her sister colonies failed of its mission and a subsequent effort made through the Colonial Assembly met with a similar fate, leaving Georgia as a colony unrepresented in the first Continental Congress.

There was one parish in the colony, however, unw'lling to brook this delay and its attitude and action were largely due to the controlling influence of a single man, Lyman Street Hall. A descendant in the fifth generation of John Hall, original immigrant who had come from Coventry, in the seventeenth century, locating at Wallingford, Lyman H. was the son of John and Mary Street and was born April 12, 1724. Graduating at Yale College in 1747 he began a course, of theological study under the tutelage of his uncle, Rev. Samuel Hall, but later took up the profession of medicine and began its practice at Wallingford, his native town.

Fifty years before. a colony of PuriMilton migrated to Dorchester froma Dorchester, Roxbury and S. a community located on the Ashley River not far away from Charleston. Rumors of their prosperity in their southern homes reached the ears of Dr. Hall and in 1752 he cast his lot with them, just as an exodus had begun from that section to southern Georgia.

Attracted by the fertility of the soil and by a grant acres of land by the Georgia Assembly, 300 of the Dorchester colonists moved to St. John's parish on the coast of Georgia and with them in 1755 came Dr. Lyman Hall. They located near old Midway Church and built their homes on the fresh and fertile lands that lay near the malarial swamps. The soil yielded generously to their culture and the malarial germs forced them without purpose and without cultivation to raise large crops of chill and fever, which kept Dr.

Hall and his primitive saddle bags busy and brought remunerative toll to his professional mill. In 1758 Mark Carr donated 300 acres of land in a more healthful section for the purpose of founding the town of Sunbury and Dr. Hall left his plantation on the Savannah and Dorien highway and built his home on lots 33 and 34 facing the bay. His pleasant address, general culture, publie spirit, social habits and well rounded character gave him large influence in the community and a made him a leader in the struggle that was soon to follow. After the Savannah Congress in January, 1775, had through lack of a majority representation failed to pledge Georgia to the American cause, St.

John's parish called a congress of its own. Failing after invitation to secure the attendance and co-operation of the other parishes th's convention, under the leadership of Dr. Hall, appointed four delegates, with instructions to secure an alliance with Carolina. The committee of correspondence in Charleston felt compelled reluctantly to decline the admission of a single parish into the Continental As. sociation and on March 21, 1776.

Dr. Hall was elected a delegate to represent St. John's parish in the Cont.nental Congress. Taking with him 160 barrels of rice and £50 sterling as a contribution from his constituents to the suffering New Englanders, he presented his eredentials on May 1 13 and was admitted with the privilege of taking part in the debates and a voice in legislation when the vote was not taken by colonies. In July, 1775, Georgia aligned herself with her sister colonies and Lyman Hall's services were continued as one of her representatives.

He was re-elected in 1776 and with h's colleagues, Button Gwinnett and George Walton, signed Thomas Jefferson's historic document. On the capture of Savannah in 1778 by the British, the settlements on the coast of Georgia fell into the enemy's hands and Dr. Hall's plantation and home were ruthlessly despoiled. His family went North and remained there until the close of the war. When hostilities had ended he returned to Connecticut's Contribution to Colonial Georgia.

of The Courant.) A MYSTERY SOLVED Eczema Not a Blood Disease ---New Remedy for Every Skin Trouble. For years the medical profession has been seeking a cure for Eczema, the most common and most stubborn of skin diseases. Some said it was 8 blood disease; some said it was the result of indigestion. It remained for one studious chemist to settle beyond any question that eczema in all its forms is a skin disease and related in no way to a disordered condition of the blood. This same chemist expertmented with many antiseptic, healing and soothing agents, was not until he formed the compound Cadum that he at last realized he had given to the world something that would bring relief or cure to millions of sufferers.

Cadum ranks today with the great discoveries of the medical world. Its action is so positive that the itching of eczema is stopped immediately. People who have itched and scratched for years find sleep and rest as soon as Cadum is used, and in ordinary cases a complete restoration of the skin to a healthy condition is reached In two or three weeks. The soothing, healing effects of Cadum are almost instantaneous. Cadum is sold at all druggists.

Trial box large box 25c. The small box is sufficient for trial purposes, and may be used not only for eczema in all its forms, but also for hives, pimples, blotches, tetter, tch, acne, herpes, scaly skin, rash. psoriasis, ringworm, chatings, erupCons, sores, scabs, itching. piles, lacurvy, etc. Georgia, located in Savannah and resumed the practice profession.

While attending quietly to these duties, he was in January, 1783, elected governor of Georgia. His executive term lasted only a year and yet in that brief time he established land offices for sale of confiscated lands, began the granting of bounties for revolutionary service, settled a boundary dispute on ed treaties with both the Creek and the Georgia and Florida line, negotiatCherokee Indians and organized the judicial system of the state. In May, 1783, the Legislature met at Augusta and in a forceful message Governor Hall urged the granting of lands for the establishment of high grade seminaries of learning. As one of the immediate results of that message the Richmond Academy, the first chartered Institution in the state, was established during that year in Augusta. Some years later it bore additional fruitage in the organization of the State University at Athens, Ga.

At the close of his term, Governor Hall returned to Savannah, enjoying a lucrative medical practice there until 1790, when he purchased a large plantation lying on the Savannah River in Burke county. On October 19 of that year he d'ed. leaving a widow Mary and a son John, neither of whom long survived him. His remains were laid to rest in a vault on a bluff overlooking the Savannah, where they remained until 1848 when the city of Augusta decided to erect a monument to the "signers" from this state. The bodles of Governor Hall and his wife of George Walton were removed and reinterred in front of what was then known as the City Hall, now the Richmond county courthouse.

The gravel of Button Gwinnett, who was killed by General Lachlan McIntosh in a duel at Savannah in 1777, could not be positivly located. The cornerstone of the monument was laid with appropriate ceremonies on July 4, 1848, and the shaft was erected in the early 50s. Governor Hall's plantation had become the property of William M. D'Antignac of Augusta and some years after the removal of the bodies Mr. D'Antignac forwarded to the town of Wallingford, the marble slab that had marked Governor Hall's or ginal grave for nearly sixty years.

Its installation in the public cemetery of his native town was made a memorable occasion and was witnessed by thousands who had gathered to do honor to his memory. Under the provisions of the first constitution of Georgia adopted in 1777, the parishes were organized into counties and St. John's and its neighbor St. Andrews were given the name of Liberty county in commemoration of the early activity of Governor Hall and other patriotic citizens of that section in behalf of the American cause. In 1818 another county lying northeast of Atlanta was given the name of Hall in further honor of this old-time citizen.

And now in closing this imperfect sketch of Lyman Hall, it seems at least appropriate that it should have been written where I sit today. Fronting the building in which these lines are penned stands the granite shaft, beneath whose sturdy form his honored dust has lain for all these vears. Facing its rear stands the Richmond Academy, organized during his term as governor and one of the direct results of his educational zeal. On an adjacent lot the Georgia Medical College. now a branch of the State University- another fruitage of his prescient brainlifts its old-time head, while two blocks away on the eastern side of McIntosh street, midway between Broad and El.

lis, lies the site of the legislative chamber, whose ancient walls echoed the virile messages from his official pen. There seems a further ness in the fact that as I look upon a facsimile of the original manuscript of Jefferson's historic paper as it lies before me today the name of Abraham Clark of New Jersey, the writer's oldtime kinsman. stands in neighborly touch with those of Button Gwinett. Lyman Hall and George Walton. Nearly 120 years have passed since the name of Lyman Hall became only, a memory and vet the Empire state of the South cherishes still with undimmed gratitude her far-away sister's gift to her old colonial days.
