They were the friends and patrons of William Shakespeare, and it was at the former's house, Wilton, that King James for the first time, witnessed a performance of one of Shakespeare's plays.

Further proof of the friendship which existed between Shakespeare and the Herberts u. found in the fact that Ileminge and Condell dedicated to them the first folio edition of his plays. It should be mentioned here that various members of the Gaines family, both in Wales and England were knighted by different sovereigns, and, as a rule, each one adopted his own coat of arms and crest; consequently, there is some confusion on this subject in the works of Heraldry. We, therefore, have given the crest described by Dunn as that of the Gaines family. It may be noted, too, that in every period of our country's history, the Gaines family has furnished its quotaof men for its service; viz.

Major- Henry Gaines member of the House of Burgesses, 1767, an officer in the Continental line, also Captain Wm. Fleming Gaines, entered Continental artillery, October 20, 1777, served to January 1, 1783. Captain Richard Gaines. Lieut. Thos.

Gaines, in Lawton's Infantry Brigade: Jos. Morton's Regiment, General Green's army. At Braddock's defeat, two Gaines' were killed. In the war of 1812 and subsequent Indian wars, General Edmund Pendleton Gaines rendered distinguished service, besides others of less note. Two Presidents of the United States, James Madison and Zach-ary Taylor have maternal Gaines blood, having intermarried with all the best families of Virginia have filled every position of honor and emolument.

Today there are two members of United States Congress, a judge of the Supreme Court of Texas, two professors of colleges, all honorable and useful positions. The above interesting sketch is from the pen of Major Richard V. Gaines, of Mosingford, one of Virginia's most talented and honored citizens, who fully exemplifies the chivalry of his forefathers. SNIPES IS DECLARED GUILTYOF MURDER Former Lancaster Man Slew Inn Keeper in Holdup, Jury Finds. Doylestown, May 18.

William C. Snipes, 20, formerly of Lancaster, S. was found guilty late today of murder in the first degree with death as the penalty, in connection with the death of Edward Gamils, who was fatally wounded at the Blue Spruce Inn last February. The jury of 10 men and two women were out about two hours and 15 minutes and took six ballots. Snipes was not affected, visibly, but his brother, Elvie.

of Lancas ter, S. cried bitterly. Counsel for Snipes filed a motion for a new trial. Snipes, who had been on a hunger strike since last Friday, looked pale and haggard. Gamils, proprietor of the Blue Spruce Inn, was shot to death as he handed $500 to three holdup men.

The defense closed its argument late today and District Attorney Arthur M. Eastburn, immediately demanded that the jury find Snipes guilty of murder in the first degree and asked that a recommendation of death in the electric chair be returned. Basing a plea on a reasonable doubt and charging that state police obtained damaging testimony from Snipes by "Spanish inquisition methods," the defense asked the jury for acquittal. On the stand in his own defense, Snipes testified he was drunk on the night of the shooting and could not remember anything that happened. He said he had admitted the slaying to police because they beat him with a rubber hose.

Commonwealth witnesses, among them newspaperman present at the police barracks when Snipes was questioned, contradicted this testimony. Three brothers and p. sister of, Snipes came here from Lancaster to testify in his behalf, but re turned to their home oji Sunday without having taken the stand. Marion Ellis, 20, also of Lancas ter, S. C.

and John Tagg, 22 of South Langhrone, were ac complices of Snipes and also charged with Gamils' murder, will 1 be tried separately later.

The following nistory of the Gaines family was published in the Richmond Times-Dispatch September 11, 1904: One result of our recent unhappy sectional conflict was the destruction of our social system. The Times-Despatch has done a good work in opening its columns to family sketches, thus giving a stimulus to genealogical investigations, which will rescue from oblivion many honorable names.

The Rev. Theophilus Jones, in his history of Brecon City, Wales, a folio edition of which is to be found in the Congressional Library, Washington, D. has given the origin and history of a number of families which embraced some of the earlier settlers of Virginia. The chief object of this preliminary sketch of the Gaines family is to supplement the work which has been undertaken by others, who have for years been engaged in the pre paration of a systematic record of the several branches of this 5 numerous and widely scattered family. As a means of stimulating further investigation and supplying the misiiing links which have resulted from the destruction Of records, it is proposed to hold a convention of the Gaines family at St.

Louis on the 28th of September in the Virginia building. From records in the Land Office of Virginia and the State Library which contained the history of colonial and Revolutionary times, with copies of wills, deeds, court orders and land grants, we find that six members of the Gaines family had located in the colony prior to 1050; Savage Genealogical Dictionary mentions Henry Gaines, freeman, Lynn, Oct. 14th, 1G39; also Samuel Gaines, who married Ann Wright, April 7th, 1607; moved to Hatfield, Ham-mott papers, 3 Vol. page 117; Rev. Gaines had a share in Plant Island, Newberry, 1G44; he married Mary Treadwell and had eight children; died 1G88, hence the New England Gaines.

The Virginia family entered Chesepeike Bay, one of them, James Gaines, settling on the Eastern shore in Accomac County, 1620; Edward, thirty years old, settled in 1631. Thomas Gaines appears in old Rappahannock, 1622, Alexander Gaines in 1635. In 1634, the Old Dominion had been divided into eight shares. James Gaines appears in Rappahannock by deed May 9 th, 1003, by patent to 519 acres of land, March 11, 1667; also Thomas Gaines patented 700 acres, 4th October, 1063 (See land book 5, p. 623).

To same, 28 acres on Hoskin's Creek; same, 10 acres, 1668. December 28th, 1668, Thomas Gaines of Piscattocan, deeded 365 acres to John Bennett. Robert Gaines patented 186 acres in old Rappahannock, North side river, adjoining the lands of Robert Beverly; same, book 7, p. 693; 400 acres September 5th, 1677. Robert and Daniel Gaines deeded 1,150 acres to Robert Mayfield on South side of river.

Daniel Gaines, June 11, 1661, patented 350 acres in old Rappahannock county. On November 30, 1658, Governor Diggs deeded to Daniel Gaines and John Jennings, 200 acres in old Rappahannock for bringing eight settlers. July 28, 1663, to Daniel Gaines 400 acres in same county, also to Daniel Gaines and Nicholas Willard, 700 acres in 1665. (Book 5, p. 478, Land Office.) It may be noted that many early settlers were brought in by members of the Gaines family, who received therefor large grants.

The will of Daniel Gaines, dated 15th of August, 1682, record ed Rappahannock, Essex County, gives to his son, Bernard, his silver hilted sword and belt, and his seal ring. He was by record in 1680 a justice of the peace and captain of militia. There are records as well as traditions, that Daniel, Thomas and Robert Gaines were brothers, and that they were the grandsons of Sir John Gaines, of Aberdeen, Wales, 1559-1008. His children were Catherine, Thomas, John, Walter, Richard and Elizabeth. Sir John Gaines was the great grandson of Morgan, the eldest son of Sir David Gaines, the progenitor of the family.

We will now turn to the Gaines ancestry in Wales. Brecon County, Wales, was the home of the Gaines family at the earliest known period of its history. Originally the family name in Welsh was Gam, and subsequently became Games. The family was one of distinction, having been among the titled and ruling class in Wales and Great Britain. In addition to earls and knights, the family embraced a King of Wales and an Emperor of Great Britain.

In "Dunn's Heraldic Visitations of Wales," which was prepared by the order of the King, are given the coat of arms and the genealogy of the Gaines family in Wales. The crest is described as follows: "The field of silver; a dark lion, with a crown on its head." The genealogy, lineal and collateral is given in the Welsh language, in two sections. The two parts were evidently prepared by different persons. The larger contribution was prepared by an eminent genealogist of the time, Thomas Jones, who says at the outset: "This pedigree is truly set forth by me, Thomas Jones, finished at Fountain Gate, the 24th day of March 1599."

New York, May Barton, cartoonist, shot and killed himself today, leaving an obituary, authorities disclosed, in which he expressed bitter remorse over his failure to appreciate his former wife, Charlotta Monterey, who divorced him five years ago and who subseouently married Eugene O'Neill. Barton referred to the present Mrs. O'Neill as "the only woman I ever "In particular, my remurso is bitter over my failure to appreciate my beautiful lost angel, Charlotta," wrote Barton, "the only woman I ever loved and whom I respect and admire above all the rest of the human, race. She is the only person who could have saved me had I been savable. She did her best." "Everyone who has known mo and who hears of this will have a different hypothesis to offer to explain why I did it," wrote Barton.

"Practically all the hypotheses will be dramatic and completely wrong. "Since early childhood I have suffered from melancholia, which for the past five years hei- beun to show definite symptoms of maidepressine-insanity. I have run from house to house and from country to country in a ridiculous i effort to escape myself. "In "particular my remorse is bitter over my failure to appreciate my beautiful lost angel, Charlotta, the only woman I ever loved and whom I respect and admire above all the rest of the human races. She is the one person who could have saved me had I been savable.

She did her best. "No one ever had a more devotee', or more understanding wife. I do hope that she will understand what my malady was and forgive me p. little. "No one thing is responsible for this and no one person except myself.

If the gossips insist upon something more definite and as thrilling let them choose my pending appointment with my dentist or the fact I happen to me-pain-fully short of cash at the moment No other single reason is more important or less temporary. "I've done it because I am fed up with inventing devices for getting through 24 hours day and with bridging over a few months periodically with some purely artificial interest such as a new gal who annoys me to the point where I forgot my own troubles." In conclusion Barton said, "I present the remains with my compliments to any medical school that fancies them or soap can be made of them. I kiss my dear children and Charlotta." The document was unsigned, but bore seven "X's" at the end. The body, seated on a bed, was found clothed in ted and white striped pajamas. In the right hand was a revolver.

In a note Barton left to his negro maid $35 all the cash he had with him, he explainedand thanked her for having been p. good servant. Barton was widely known for his drawings pUlowin; America and Americans. He illustrated several books, including "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" wrote a few books himself, and sketched for Puck Life. Liberty and recently the New Yorker.

A neighborhood tailor said today the red ribbon of the legion of honor, awarded Barton in 1927. was in the lapel of every one of his suits. The suicide took place exactly a moiun aner Barton's divorce from Ins fourth wife, Germaine Mary Taillenerre. His other marriages included that with Miss Monterey who was the third Mrs. Barton, all ended in divorce.

He was the father of two children, both daughters, ft disclosed today that Neill and his wife arrived here Sunday from Europe. Miss Monterey's marriage to Barton was dissolved by a divorce in 192G and she wed O'Neill in Paris in 1929. She is a former actress and a native of California. Barton was born in Kansas City August 14, 1891. In 1927 he went abroad announcing he would never live in America again because he wanted to take a drink and smoke without interruption.

But he returned in a few years saymg then: America is a mad house That's why I came back. I leel I belong here." Searching Party Finds Joe Steppe Greenville, May 20. Joe Steppe, 27, Greenville sportsman, who lost his way in a mountain tastness 2G miles from here yesterday while fishing, was found by a searching party earlv today after a nine-hour hunt. Meppe, separated from his companion, the Rev. Mays M.

Bar-nett, said he wandered about through the wood until night overtook him. With the only match he had, he built a fire and decided to wait until morning before continuing his efforts to find his way out. The searching party, attracted by his fire, found him shortly after 3 a. m. He had wandered approximately four miles from the spot where he separated from Mr.

Barnett. The world is using sixty-three different kinds of standard time. David Gam, knight, all ye Games of Brecknegshire and elsewhere are descended, and from Gladys, the daughter of David Gam, all yo Vaughr.ns and all the Herberts of South Wales are and yc most part of all the no-1 bility of England. (P. 56).

David Gaines was knighted by Henry on the field of Agin-1 court (1415, just before he died.) I He is said by his personal daring to nave savea tne nie 01 nenry who was hemmed in and about to be overpowered, but was himself mortally wounded. Referring to his bearing on this field, Jones, the historian, says: "Sir Walter Raleigh has an eulogium upon his bravery and exploits in the field of Agincourt in which he prefers his greatness of soul to that of Mago, and compares him to Hannibal. There can be little doubt but that he was the original of Shakespeare character of 1 luel-lin, in Henry "For" says Jones' History of Brecon County, "there was no other person of that country in the English army who could have been supposed to have been upon such terms of familiarity with the King; and it must be observed that Llewelyn was the name by which he was known in that army." The family name in Great Britain has undergone various changes, having been written at different times and places Gam, Gams, Games, Gaynes, Gamme, Gane and Gaines. Theophilus Jones, in his history of Brecknockshire gives the genealogy of the family and many valuable facts concerning it. Jones gives the genealogy, not only after the surname was assumed, but traces the line of descent back to the sixth century.

David Gam had four brothers, Roger, Griffith, Richard and William, and a sister, Helen. David Gam was the son of Llewelyn, a man who was widely known and highly regarded in Wales, and he entered the military service of the King as David or Llewelyn-David, the son of Llewelyn. Previous to the Norman conquest, nomenclature in Britain was. in chaos. Personal names, the individual names in Pre-Norman history, were for the life of him to whom they were attached.

It was not until the twelfth or thirteenth century that surnames began to become fixed or hereditary. David Gam was the fourth in descent from Einion Sais, the latter word meaning that Einion had lived in England and inherited the estate and demesne of Castle Einion Sais. His father, Llewelyn, had also purchased the mansions of Peyton in the parishes of Garthbrengy and 1 a w. David's grandfather was Howel. The historic seats of the family in Wales were Peyton Gwin, Newton, Buckland, Aberbran, Tvegaer, Penderin and Porthamal.

A picture of the residence of Sir John Gaines, of Newton, built in 1582, is given in the "Annals and Antiquities of the Counties and County Families of Wales" by Thomas Nicholas. The house is still standing. On each side of the fireplace is the great hall of this mansion, the shield of arms is sculptured in stone, and the names of Sir John and his progenitors for six generations are similarly preserved. At the close of the inscription is this sentiment: "On God depends ev erything." About six years after the union of England and Wales, Henry VIII issued his first summons for representatives to be sent from Wales to Parliament. In obedience to this summons, Edward Gaines was returned to Parliament in 1542.

Thos. Gaines was a member from Wales in 1572 and 1585. The following members of the family held the position of high sheriff of Brecon County: Edward Gaines, of Newton, 1558; John Gaines, of Aberbran, 1559; William Gaines, of Aberbran, 1562; William Gaines, of Aberbran, 1569; John Gaines, of Newton, 1074; William Gaines, of Aberbran, 1576; John Gaines, of Newton, 1587; John Gaines, of Newton, 1596; Sir John Gaines, of Newton, 1600; John Gaines, of Buckland, 1004; John Gaines, of Aberbran, 1008; Edward Gaines, of Newton, 1023; Richard Gaines, of Penderin, 1625; Edward Gaines, of Buckland, 1647; Roger Gaines, of Tregaer, 1652; Howe Gaines, of Newton, 1657. Lewis Dunn, in his most valuable work on: Welsh families, acknowledges his obligations to Sir John Gaines, of Porthamal, as being among the aristocracy by whom he "was permitted to see. old records and books from religious houses that had.

been written and their material collected by Abbots and Priors." In St. John's Church, Brecon, below the communion rail, is the tomb of Edward Gaines, of Newton, September 9th, 1564. In Christ's Church, across the river from Brecon, a stone bears the name of Edward Gaines, of Tregaer. Near the pulpit, William, the son of Meredith Gaines, 1606. Peyton Gwin was the residence of Sir David Gam.

Aberbran is referred to as "a seat of the junior branch of the house of Aber-camlias." Jones in history of Brecknockshire, says "The influence of the family of Gaines with the houso of Lancaster was extremely powerful." In another place, speaking of Sir David, he says: "I have seen the descendants of this hero of Agincourt in possession of every acre of ground in the county of Brecon."

CONRAD JONES, Clerk of Court. Pub. May 18, 3, 30. w's ag- LAST CALL by your Fertilizer Dealer in a Series appearing in this newspaper IF you hold out any longer from buying your side-dressing, you may find it too late for your crops to take full benefit from the fertilizer. You may also find it hard to get it in time.

I've still got a good supply of Chilean Nitrate of Soda on hand. But it's not going to last very long the way they're buying it just now. IF you wait too long before side-uressing, you'll only be delaying harvest time and you won't get the big yields you should. With Chilean Nitrate selling at the lowest price in years, there's no saving in waiting until the last moment. Get your Chilean the natural nitrate NOW.

Then there'll be no delay in putting out your fertilizer when crops need it most. In the new 100 lb. bags that stay in good shape, you'll find Chilean keeps in better condition. But be sure to insist on "Chilean" when you order your nitrate. It is the real the real original "SODA." Remember the two kinds Original Chilean (Crystalline) and Chjnpion Brand (Granulated) both natural nitrate.
