Dedication

TO my wife, Mary Randolph, daughter of Lieutenant Commander John B. Randolph, U. S. Navy, this last literary effort of a long life of endeavor, is heartily and fervently dedicated, with the hope that better than marble, bronze, brass or granite this work of historic value will prove to be a monument worthy of the subject; a woman that was a model for womanhood, a wife of incomparable fidelity, a mother of angelic affection and a friend of legions who benefited by her friendship ; a monument chiseled with the heart and hands of love, by

The Author.
