Carlisle was in entire harmony with the President on the tariff and also on the monetary questions and, indeed, I remark here that Mr. Carlisle had very much to do toward the defeat of Mr. Bryan in 1896. Although a life-long Democrat himself, he believed that Mr. Bryan's theories on the monetary question would ruin the country, and he stood with Mr. Cleveland in opposing his election.
Near this place the Tories had collected, some 800 strong; and Rutherford hoped, with Gregory's aid, to crush them. But to his disappointment, no opportunity was given, for General Bryan, the Tory leader, hearing of the defeat of the Loyalists at Ramseur's Mill a few days before, crossed the Yadkin and united with General MacArthur, whom Cornwallis had sent to Anson County.
This settled the fact that Pearl Bryan had purchased the shoes, and at two o'clock Wednesday morning the officers visited the home of the Bryans, taking with them the clothes found on the murdered woman. Here an awful climax came. The mother of Pearl was shown the clothes and one by one she positively identified them between her sobs and cries of "My Pearl, my Pearl."
"What is it, mother dear?" Sheila asked eagerly. "Tell me!" The mother made a passionate gesture of astonishment and joy; then she leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes, with the letter which was closely written, in old-fashioned punctiliousness in her hands. "Oh, my dear, my dear!" she said. "How strange it all is! Your Uncle Bryan is immensely rich.
During this chat Bryan and Hanna Cavanagh were engaged in that good-humored badinage that is common to persons of their age and position. "I didn't see you at Mass last Sunday, Bryan?" said she, laughing; "an' that's the way you attend to your devotions. Upon my word you promise well!" "I seen you, then," replied Bryan, "so it seems if I haven't betther eyes I have betther eyesight."
"No more proletariat! We're all Americans! We'll all fight for the Union and the old flag! You too!" He turned to William Jennings Bryan, who rose slowly and with outstretched hands faced his adversaries. "I, too, have made mistakes and I am sorry. I, too, feel the grandeur of those noble words spoken by that great patriot who has sent us his last message.
"Teddy," said he, "now that the coast's clear, let us lose no time in coming to the point. You are aware that Bryan M'Mahon has come into the mountain farm of Ahadarra by the death of his uncle." "Shiss; dese three years." "You will stick to your cursed brogue," said the other; "however, that's your own affair. You are aware of this?" "I am."
During the remainder of the year, the borders were kept clear by bold and tireless rangers-under the leadership of expert Indian fighters of the stamp of Grifth Rutherford and Morgan Bryan. When the Cherokee warriors who had wrought havoc along the North Carolina border in April arrived at their town of Settiquo, they proudly displayed the twenty-two scalps of the slain Rowan settlers.
As you will observe, I now do so. Until this time I have been deterred from setting forth my complaint by a variety of good and sufficient reasons, which I enumerate: Firstly To me it appeared inevitable that this open letter, on its reaching your hands, would result in a breach between Your Excellency and your late Secretary of State, Mr. William Jennings Bryan.
William J. Bryan in his book, "In His Image," p. 97, says, "But how does the evolutionist explain the eye, when he leaves God out? Here is the only guess that I have seen, if you find any others, I shall be glad to know of them, as I am collecting the guesses of the evolutionists. The evolutionist guesses that there was a time when eyes were unknown that is a necessary part of the hypothesis.
