Korth Carolina was the first of the colonies to have an English settlement, the first to shed blood in the war for independence, and the first to give utterance in explicit form to that independence. Nor was the declaration of the people of Mecklenburg the sole manifestation of the sentiment in the matter. At Fayetteville, on Cape Feai river below Southern Pines, anothoi Declaration of Independence ante dated that of Philadelphia. The peo pie in Cumberland county, oi v/aiei: Fayetteville is the capital, issued theij statement in June of 1775, insisting that resort to arms was justified, ant pledging each other to sacrifice Iif< and fortune to the freedom and safety nn onnrossed people.

I Some Tory Sentiment. AH of this section of North Carolina was not enthusiastic in the Declaration of Independence* A portion of the settlers were ardeat Tories?so ardeat in fact, that it was not until the war of 1812 that the Scotch of Cape Pearj : valley finally turned away absotaieiy, from the royal standard. The story is one of singular caisfor- j tnne. The Cape Fear valley was set-. tied largely by j JFwko c.6 the adlierents 1 the Stuart family, i . VVfis? which met with I = '!

Greene was the most potent force in our struggle for national independence. He was horn oj? May 27, 1742, in a little farmhouse in Rhode Island. His i boyhood was spent like that of the other youth of thu neighborhood. Prob1 ably it was a little less exciting, foi 1 his father was a strict Quaker and ? ! pastor of a church at East Greenwich. j He was also a "captain of industry" at that period.
