i Thomas Young, born in 1732, in Brunswick county, son of Michael Cadet Young and Martha Saddler, married first, 1755, Judith John sen; second, Lucy Ragsdale; moved to North Carolina in 1778 and settled on Hunting creek in then Rowan, now Iredell, county. He was a wealthy farmer and owned a number of negroes. He was an ardent patriot and contributed to the American cause. Coming to this community during the progress of the Revolutionary war Mr. Young constructed his residence which is often alluded to in history as Fort Young.

with a view to defence in cases of emergency. It is said that he built two strong log houses about 40 feet apart and closed up the space between with a strong stockade. One of these buildings, still in May 1911, is a strong wall built of large logs, the corners peculiarly dovetailed, with port holes through which the approach of an enemy might be observed and messengers in the form of leaden balls be sent out to inform him in a forceful manner that his presence was known. Forty years ago this old house, now a bare log wall, was weatherboarded and had ashed on either side, in one of which was two rooms and the other a room in one end and a porch in the other, in the regulation style of times. The Statesville Air Line railroad as now surveyed, passes exactly through the spot occupied by the northern part of Fort Young.

Thomas Young's home was headquarters for the Whigs for miles around and a point for receiving and distributing information; as well as for the concerting of measures for the aid of the cause of freedom and for gathering supplies for friends in the field. The Tories, who were numerous up the country not far distant, often made predatory incursions into this settlement carrying off stock, devastating farms, and ambuscading and shooting Whigs who were especially obnoxious to them. Mr. Young's fortifications was a rallying point against such invasions. He was a member of an association of eight neighbors who were engaged in the manufacture of gun powder in a rude way, for the use of their friends in the service.

Against this association the Tories were extremely bitter and had conspired to kill them. They succeeded in murdering seven of them and detained one of their number, a man named Aldrich. to way lay and shoot Mr. Young. Aid-rich concealed himself in the woods near the dwelling of his intended victim and watched for an opportunity to perpetrate the murderous deed, but the habitual circumspection of Mr.

Young foiled him in his purpose until he was discovered by a member i-l Why Get Hot Speaker Champ Clark opened the Democratic campaign in Maine Saturday.

"The Democrats, with assistance of patriotic Progressives and a patriotic contingent of Republicans, placed on the statute book the national reserve bank act, which it is believed will render panics impossible in the future. "We passed an anti-trust law which tends to promote a legitimate business and to crush illegitimate business. "We passed a bill to open up our amazingly rich Alaskan empire for the benefit of all our people and to prevent that marvelous storehouse of wealth from being exploited by the few. "The trades commission law is intended to regulate trade so that it will be fair trade fair to all, big and little. "The rural credits bill will undoubtedly prove a great blessing to the farmers.

The bad wagon roads of America are a sad commentary on our sense, for, stated in briefest terms, they constitute wicked and wanton waste. The Shackleford good roads bill is a long step in the direction of giving us a system of wagon roads which will be of permanent and vast utility to all our people. "After many years of agitation in favor of electing United States senators by popular vote, we secured a constitutional amendment authorizing it and passed laws to put the amendment into effect. "What is known as the Rucker corrupt practice act will go ar to lift our politics to a higher ne, into a purer atmosphere.

"We have passed a carefully prepared and thoroughly discussed water power bill which will put an end to the attempted monopoly of water power sites and the charging of exorbitant charges for power. "We passed amended and better bills for the government of Porto Rico and the Philippines, giving more of self-government to the peoples of those islands.
