Somhtern I.u:hera.~ . few years ago. visiting Char 1 a te.ville. \a.. a iaw student of the ' U.ersity of Virginia. 'Mr. Charles' Kagey. took me for a drive to Monti cello. the old home of Thomas Jeffer son. \Vhen we reached the lodge at the entrance to the park, the old negro gate keeper sounded the bell that announced to the mansion the coming of visitors. On our w..v through the grounds, we stopped by a little graveyard, en closed with an iron railing, to stand with uncovered heads by the simple shaft on which is carved: "Here is buried Thomas Jefferson, Author of the Declaration of Independence, of the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom. and the Father of -the Uni versity of Virginia. Afterward. as we stood upon one of -te columned porches of the house In which he once lived. my friend pointed oln: the pathwlv by which Jefferson rode for safety and perhaps for life. escap:ng ;ri the British General Tarletor. who was seeking his cap:ure. It w%as in the Spring of 1781. The British army under the traitor Bene dict Arnold and General Philips was laying waste Eastern Virginia, andl it looked as if Richmond must fall into the enemies' hands. The legis I lature left Richmond to meet at Charlottesville and Thomas Jefferson, who was then governor, came back to his home at Monticello, two miles from the town. In some way Corn wallis learned of this action of the legislature and sent General Tarleton to capture its members and the gov ernor. It seemed almost as if his plans would not fail, for they were carried out with the utmost secrecy and Tarleton must reach Charlottes ville before the tidings of his propQs ed raid could possibly be carried to the endangered men in the little, shut in mountain village. If he had succeeded, history would have been written 'differently. In ihe legisla ture were Richard Henry Lee, Thomas Nelson, Jr., and Benjamin Harrison, the ancestor of two of our Presidents: Patrick Henry and other nod men, and there was Jefferson. We can not help asking, What if Tarleton had succeeded? What if Jefferson, Lee, Harrison, Patrick Henry and the rest had been cap tured, tried for treason, transported to England, or perhaps hung? We must still have in the end won the battle. for Liberty and Indepen dence. but how much longer would have been the struggle. Jefferson would never have been president. The Louisiana purchase, told of in the preceding article woui not have been made. The great country west of the M1ississippi wo'uld have been New France. or we would have had before us another bloody war. Upon what seemingly little things, hang great results. One morning in early June. Tarleto'n reached Cuckoo Tavern, about forty miles from Char lottesville. A young -inn-keeper of Charlottesville was at Cuckoo Tavern, and he suspected Tarleton's design and made up his mind to warn Jef ferson and the legislature. He was riding the "best-bred and fleetest mare in seven counties" and he knew of an old abandoned trail, brier grown and almost impassable shorter than the main road. by which Tarleton's men must travel. To think with him was to act, and with the 'nough: he was off like the w ind. Tw hou:rs :atter. with cloth ing~ tin by the thorns and face scar re andm bleeding. having ridden more thaii n thirtyv miles, he reached \I 'nticek A- M!r. Jefferson. came out of the i:ouse Jack Jouett, for this was the hern' : ame. cried "The British. goverr' r. the British! Tarle ton aind i- men are coining. Get away at onice. There's nc time to lose." and then onto warn thte legis lature. A- huzrried resoluition was passed to mreet at Staunton, forty miles away. and the legislature ad Ijourned jus~t a:, Tarleton's ad vance guard came in sight of the vil lage. You wil1 he g!ad to leairn that only ~seven mnembers of the legislatture were captured, and that the other thirty three. inch:ding all the most promi net men escaped in safety, thanks to the brave ride-of one of the heroes of the Revo.lution. whose name is too little known.
