THE H A R R IE T TUBMAN TAB LET
I A bronze tablet in memory of Mr*
I Harriet Tubman < Davis) w r a un­
veiled In June, 1914. at Auburn. N Y
The tablet ha* been placed con
spicuously In the Cayuga County
Court House. It wa* paid for chiefly
by personal contribution*, mostly
from people In Auburn and vicinity
| The woman in whose memory the
j tablet ha* been erected hail a most
eventful career. She was born in
*>lavery in Maryland and escaped by
' running away when a young woman
| After she had secured her freedom,
she took up the work of conducting
I runaway slaves to Canada, mainly by
wav of what carne to be called the
Under Ground Railroad. For that
purpose she marie many trips Into
slave territory, encountering grave
dangers and enduring great prlva-
- io n
W) m n I he War made ui h
work no longer necessary, she be­
cam e a nurse and spy. rendering val­
uable service to the Union cause.
It is difficult to view the facial
features of this heroine us depleted
on this tablet without wincing at
what must be ralled—puttlng It veiy
mildly the Imld literalness of th<
portrayal. In fact, literalness. If it
really is that, has here been carried
IV I4
quite beyond the limit* ^>f good
taste
This woman, whose life-history is
like a romance and a hero tab coin
bined. lived. It Is true, to a great
ng'; but It Is probable that for rel­
atively only a short period of her
li/r, were her features as shriveled,
mis-shapen, and pitifully distorted
as they are here depicted if indeed
they ever a« re.
If the artist in­
ti tided to do something "striking,'
he failed; for what he actually did
was merely stupid.

The people of Auburn, where Mrs.
Davis lived so long and where she
filed, probably had no Intention to
ridicule h« r„ and It Is ulso probable
that, knowuif hei personal chanu
ter so well, they can manage to tol
crate—for the sake of sup|H>s«d art
arul truth—the haggish physiognomy
which wc see on this tablet.
But many of us who were outside
of her personal acquaintance, al­
though we would be pleased to see
her work and her sacrifice», properly
commemorated vet find it difficult
o reconcile such raw realism If it
