  _DEDICATION_

  _As my work has been a labor of love, I therefore affectionately
  dedicate this book to the Daughters of the

  September 4, 1913.

  MRS. SHEPPARD W. FOSTER,
  Atlanta, Georgia.

  My Dear Mrs. Foster:--To say that I am delighted with your
  Revolutionary Reader is to state the sheer truth in very mild
  terms. It is a marvel to me how you could gather together so many
  charmingly written articles, each of them illustrative of some
  dramatic phase of the great struggle for independence. There
  is much in this book of local interest to each section. There
  is literally nothing which does not carry with it an appeal of
  the most profound interest to the general reader, whether in
  Georgia or New
