In later generations one must, include Daniel Webster and Horace Greel ey, eminent sons of' the state in whose veins flowed the blood of Scotch-Irish forbears. ; The Scotch-Irish In Ow South From the southern colonies Scotch-Irish leaders knocked at the doors of the congress of the "early Confederation of the Colon ies and asked for recognition of tbe free and independent government-of the state of Franklin; they formed the Transylvania .Re public; they heard the sounds uf battle on Lexington Green and,, a.t Concord Bridge; and In' def ianfft of the mother country, on. May..0 1775,-oyer-a year before the sign ing of the Declaration of.' Inde pendence,, promulgated the Meck lenburg Declaration, at Charlotte, N. C., in which it was "Resolved. That we dissolve all political bonds which, have; connected us with the mother country-'anu ao solve ourselves from allegiance to the British-Crown; and Resolved, That we do hereby declare' our selves a-, free and independent people, khat we aref arid . of right ought to be, a sovereign and setf governing people under the pdwer of Ood arid the General Congress." It was In tbe south, too. In the House of Burgesses of Virginia. that Patrick Henry, son oi an ihrdMn Scotchman, moved in the committee of the Whole on May 29, 1765, the adoption of the famous series of resolutions against the infamous Stamp Act. In his own soul the smoldering ember grew to such a flame that, ten years . later In the same place and under similar circumstances, he-gave .utterance to those words as renowned .as "the shot heard rdhnd thle wjorld" : "I know not wliat course others itiay 'take, but, as lor mev give me liberty or give rne death.! Tfie6 wordB were spoken in March; in May came the MecklenbUrg Declaration. ' Scotch-Irish, in Revolution The services--of the Scotch Irishmen in the Revolution can scarcely be overestimated. ;At times they constituted a third of Washington's army. When others were disheartened their coq rage never failed or. weakened. When the, commander-in-chief despaired of the continuance of the struggle they put new force and nerve into the conflict. They were largely renresented among the faithful. oatient sufferers .at Valley Forge. and solidly with Washington in large force when he crossed, me Delaware and later when he made his masterly, strokes through New Jersey.
