" - Robert E. Ixm*. Robert E. Lee was born in Strat ford. Westmoreland county, Virgin la. Ylis father, Henry Lee, known better as "Light Horse Harry Lee," had become famous in. the Revolu tionary war. When quite a boy his father died, leaving Robert to take care of his mother, lie grad uated n4; West Point in 1829. For his distinguished services in . the Mexican war, he was three times promoted. From 1852 to 1856 he was super intendent of the United States Academy. When the second caval ry was formed Lee became its lieutenant colonel. Three days af ter Virginia seceded Colonl Leee resigned from the United States Army and was appointed to com mand the tfoops of lils native state. In the civil war -Ills' fame rose great and high. It is safe to * say he is America's greatest general. From 1865 until his deatji* be* was President of Washington Col lege ? now Washington and Leo Un iversity. * Once when Lee was fixing to at tack, General J. E. B. Stuart, a Confederate cavalry leader, raaJe a brave ride around McChi:m's army, capturing prisoners arid provisions. Lee was a brave man; religions and a lover of his oountry. His birthday Is celebrated thru out the South. At the end of the war when , Lee was going home, his men cried and tried to touch his horse or htm. Then Leee Bald, "Men, we hare fought through the war together; I have done my best for you; my heart la too full to say move." When he died even poople from ?the North came to his Mvoral and went taa the Southerners did. Lee CANONCHET. Thla Is the story of *' savage chief tain who could not forget * wrong, and who, at the coat of hla own life, avenged the eril wreaked by the white men upon' his father. Mlantonomoh, a a an earlier article of thla series told, waa sachem of the Narragansett tribes. He was proud to be known as the white man'a friend. He gave pledges of loyalty to the New England colonists and trusted the vows the colonists made In retrun. Then Uncaa, the great Mohegan chief, became bis enemy. Uncaa waa more useful to the white men than Mlan tonomob. J3o the New Englanders sac rificed the Itrustful sachem, giving him over to the Mobeguns for execution. When Mlantonomoh waa slain, the Narragansetts sought to punish the Mobegans for bis death, but sgain the English settlers Interfered to help Uncaa. A Wrong to Avenge. Canonchet (or Ns-nun-tlnu) was Mlantonomoh's son. In time he be came chief of the Narragansetts. A Massachusetts colonist thus sums up his appearance: "He is a large, mus cular man, of great courage of mind aa well as strength <?f body." The young Narragansett ruler waa not at first strong enough to declare his In tention of averaging Mlantonomoh's sacrifice. So he went (as his father before him bad gone) to Boston aa guest of the English. There he was flattered and made much of, even aa Mlantonomoh once ~bad been. The Engllah had given Mlantonomoh a shirt of mall. They presented Canon chet with a gorgeous red coat laced with sliver. And they managed, as in Mlantonomoh's case, to Induce him to sign a treaty that Wae favorable to the colonies. In fact, he appeared to have forgotten any grudge he Jiad ever held. But, ^herees Mlantonomoh had been honest in bis oath of friend ship, there Is every reason to believe Cononchet was not. He accepted the Englishmen's gifts, listened with a grave face to their flattery, signed the treaty, and ? then went back to his people and secretly made ready for re venge. King Philip, son of Massasolt, de clared war on the English. Canon chefs chance had come. He sent his braves on the warpath as allies of Philip. He gave refuge and shelter to th* wives and children of Philip's warriors. He was paying the first In stallment of his debt of hatred. And the second soon followed. The Eng lish learned with pained surprise that the man they had so lavishly enter^ tained and had dressed In a silver laced coat was actually enrolling him self among their enemies. So, in March, 1676, they sent an expedition under Capt. Michael Pierce to punish Canonchet for breaking his treaty pledges. Plferce and Ms troops marched into the Narragansett country and near the Pawtucket river falls found Canonchet with 300 Indian braves at his back. Canonchet, as if in fear, crossed the river with his men. Pierce followed in hot pursuit. But as the English militia men reached the farther bank the re treating Canonchet suddenly halted and gave the order to attack. He had lured the English across the ice choked stream In order to prevent them from escaping Into the forest. I With the river at his back, 'and the Indians rushing down upon hin\ from I the banks above, Pierce was caught in a trap. He formed his soldiers in double line qf battle, back to back, on the brink of the stream, and prepared to meet the avalanche of Savage as sault as best he might During the fierce battle that ensued Canonchet and his braves slew nearly every man In Pierce's command. News of this disastrous affair roused all New England. Every colony there was called on for militiamen to crush Canonchet. A strong force of soldiers and "friendly" Indians, under Capt George Denlson, bore upon his camp, took him by surprise. Canonchet made a dash for the nearby river, meaning to leap into Its waters and swim to safety. ' As he ran he threw away the silver-laced coat the English had given him. The Indian allies of the ool onists gave chase, but Canonchet's fleetness of foot kept him well ahead of them. Just as he neared the bank he slipped In the mud and fell. Be fore he could scrample to his feet he was seized. A Last Defiance. The captured chief made no resist ance. In fact, he treated his captors as though they were slaves; scorning to speak to them or look in their di dection. He was taken before the au thorities, who offered him release un der certain humiliating conditions. He refused, adding: ' "I wish to hear no more talk ahout treatise or freedom. The English have burned my people In their homes. By* killing me you will not end the war. There are other Narragan setts as brave as L" The English gave Canonchet over to their Indian friends for execution. As he was led forth to death he aaldl -I like this wen.
