Ballman Jeffrey M. Hartman James H. Houston Bradley Jarard And All Living Past Presidents Presidents Message Compatriots, The Cincinnati Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution has had another exceptional and productive year! Our many 2017 activities are a testimony of our chapter s continuing commitment to further patriotic involvement in our community. An examination of our current 2017 Americanism scores as of December 1, 2017, shows us exceeding our 2016 scores. This is quite a remarkable feat, considering that our 2016 scores won us the National Society SAR Liberty Bell Award. This all can be credited to the amazing efforts and energy of our increasingly active membership. I d like to extend my grateful thanks to all of our 2017 Chapter Officers and Board of Management members. Your leadership and dedication are at the core of our chapter s success. Most of us will be continuing to serve for another year in 2018 and I truly look forward to continuing to serve with this fine hard working team of compatriots. We also welcome Compatriot Clay Crandall as our new Secretary and Compatriot Bob Bowers to the Board of Management. I d also like to extend a special heartfelt thanks to Compatriot Larry Collins for his excellent service as our nd Vice-President. Personally, 2017 has been an amazing experience. It has been truly an honor to represent the Cincinnati SAR at such a wide variety of community and SAR events. I have been able to meet and develop so many new friendships with citizens in our community and organization leaders who are all truly committed to the growth of patriotism. As we look forward to 2018, I invite all our compatriots to continue to nurture our chapter s growth, especially in the area of service to our veterans will be The Cincinnati SAR Year of the Veteran.

Gunn, Ph.D. Past President, Patriot Graves Chair CCSAR On Sunday, November 12, 2017 in a small but solemn ceremony at Wesleyan Cemetery the 5th Surgeon General of the United States of America s Gravesite was marked with a special granite stone. That marking is a Maltese Cross of four arms and eight points, the top three have the letters SAR and the bottom the date 1775; in the center is the center medallion bears the figure of a minuteman surrounded by 13 stars. This emblem is based on the badges of the Military Order of Saint Louis, founded by King Louis XIV in 1693 to honor faithful military service, and the Legion of Honor, founded by Napoleon in 1803 to reward civil and military service. The Emcee for the service was Col. Donald C. McGraw Jr., Retd., President of the Ohio Society of the Sons of the American Revolution; who introduced the ceremony as a three part event: 1 To give honor this day on all those who served in the military of these United States of America to retain our Liberties and Freedoms gained by those Patriots of the Revolutionary War. 2 To rededicate the Memorial to the 18 Revolutionary War Patriots honored on the Monument within the grounds of the Wesleyan Cemetery. 3 To properly mark with the SAR Logo this Revolutionary War Patriot the grave of Patriot Richard Allison, a General of the Army of the USA. Colonel McGraw used these words: We are here today to mark the grave of Surgeon General Richard Allison, rededicate the granite Memorial that honors the 18 Revolutionary Patriots also buried in these hallowed grounds, and bring Honor to all our Veterans who served this country. Richard Allison entered the army as a surgeon in During the American Revolutionary War he served as a surgeon s mate in the Pennsylvania Line of the Continental Army. He was the senior American military physician in the Northwest Indian War, and became the surgeon general of General Anthony Wayne s Legion when those troops were organized and defeated the Indians at the Battle of Fallen Timbers. He was the fifth Surgeon General of the USA. (Continued on next page) 4 Page

6 There was an Actor Among Us! George Stewart, Chapter Historian Compatriot William A. Moore While looking for some past Veterans Day events in our Chapter history, I discovered that our Veterans Day luncheon actually started as a Thanksgiving Day dinner in These events must have been very entertaining.

He appeared in dress uniform carrying the flag of the Society of Cincinnati. In 1983 Captain John Paul Jones, a native of Scotland, and also an American naval commander during the American Revolutionary War, talked about his heroic activities. In 1987 General Mad Anthony Wayne was our special guest. He wore the formal uniform that he had worn at the Battle of Stoney Point on the West Bank of the Hudson near West Point, New York.

A graduate of Miami University (B.S.) and the University of Cincinnati (M.A.), Mr. Moore was a writer and lecturer on military, historical and scientific subjects. He also portrayed General George Washington at other Chapter events over the years. Because of his great love for the United States, especially Hamilton and Butler Counties, Mr. Moore participated enthusiastically in parades where he portrayed several great men of American history. Wearing authentic uniforms, he also talked about these characters at schools in the surrounding areas. Compatriot Moore passed away on January 2, November BOM Highlights Cincinnati SAR President Bredenfoerder inducted Michael Mershon as a new Compatriot of our chapter during our meeting on November 1st.

just reached the Congress in Philadelphia. The building of the actual monument did not begin until the centennial celebration of the victory in 1881.

7 CCSAR attends Yorktown Day Ceremony Michael B. Gunn On October 29, 1781, the Continental Congress authorized the Yorktown Victory Monument at York, Virginia, to commemorate the surrender of Lord Cornwallis and the British army, news of which had just reached the Congress in Philadelphia. The building of the actual monument did not begin until the centennial celebration of the victory in Congress' original resolution to erect the monument reads as follows: "That the United States in Congress assembled, will cause to be erected at York, in Virginia, a marble column, adorned with emblems of the alliance between the United States and his Most Christian Majesty; and inscribed with a succinct narrative of the surrender of earl Cornwallis to his excellency General Washington, Commander in Chief of the combined forces of America and France; to his excellency the Count de Rochambeau, commanding the auxiliary troops of his most Christian Majesty in America, and his excellency the Count de Grasse, commanding in chief the naval army of France in the Chesapeake." Notice the emphasis on French involvement during the war. If it hadn't been for French cooperation, the war likely would have been lost - a fact not known by many Americans. The Yorktown Victory Monument was finished in The main pillar is 84 feet tall and the statue of the Lady Victory is 14 feet high on top of that. The statue was replaced in 1956 after the original was damaged by lightning. Today the monument can be found on the southeast end of Main Street in Yorktown, Virginia. Each of the four sides of the base of the monument contain an inscription: Side 1: At York on Oct after a siege of nineteen days by 5500 American & 7000 French troops of the line 3500 Virginia Militia under command of Gen Thomas Nelson and 33 French ships of war Earl Cornwallis Commander of the British forces at York & Gloucester surrendered his army of 1751 officers and men, 840 seamen, 244 cannon and 24 standards to His Excellency George Washington Commander in Chief of the combined forces of America and France; and His Excellency the Comte de Rochambeau commanding the auxiliary troops of His Most Christian Majesty in America; and to His Excellency The Comte de Grasse Commanding Chief The Naval Army of France in Chesapeake 7 Page

9 Articles of Confederation Gary L. Duffield, Secretary, Cincinnati Chapter Sons of the American Revolution The Articles of Confederation, formally the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, was an agreement among the 13 original states of the United States of America that served as its first constitution. Its drafting by a committee appointed by the Second Continental Congress began on July 12, 1776, and an approved version was sent to the states for ratification on November 15, The Articles of Confederation came into force on March 1, 1781, after being ratified by all 13 states. A guiding principle of the Articles was to preserve the independence and sovereignty of the states. The federal government received only those powers which the colonies had recognized as belonging to king and parliament. The Articles formed a war-time confederation of states, with an extremely limited central government. While unratified, the document was used by the Congress to conduct business, direct the American Revolutionary War, conduct diplomacy with foreign nations, and deal with territorial issues and Native American relations. The adoption of the Articles made few perceptible changes in the federal government, because it did little more than legalize what the Continental Congress had been doing. That body was renamed the Congress of the Confederation; but Americans continued to call it the Continental Congress, since its organization remained the same. As the Confederation Congress attempted to govern the continually growing American states, delegates discovered that the limitations placed upon the central government rendered it ineffective at doing so. As the government's weaknesses became apparent, especially after Shays' Rebellion, individuals began asking for changes to the Articles. Their hope was to create a stronger national government. Initially, some states met to deal with their trade and economic problems. However, as more states became interested in meeting to change the Articles, a meeting was set in Philadelphia on May 25, This became the Constitutional Convention. It was quickly realized that changes would not work, and instead the entire Articles needed to be replaced. On March 4, 1789, the government under the Articles was replaced with the federal government under the Constitution. The new Constitution provided for a much stronger federal government by establishing a chief executive (the President), courts, and taxing powers. On June 12, 1776, a day after appointing a committee to prepare a draft of the Declaration of Independence, the Second Continental Congress resolved to appoint a committee of 13 to prepare a draft of a constitution for a union of the states. The committee met repeatedly, and chairman John Dickinson presented their results to the Congress on July 12, There were long debates on such issues as sovereignty, the exact powers to be given the confederate government, whether to have a judiciary, and voting procedures. The final draft of the Articles was prepared in the summer of 1777 and the Second Continental Congress approved them for ratification by the individual states on November 15, 1777, after a year of debate. In practice, the Articles were in use beginning in 1777; the final draft of the Articles served as the de facto system of government used by the Congress ("the United States in Congress assembled") until it became de jure by final ratification on March 1, 1781; at which point Congress became the Congress of the Confederation. Under the Articles, the states retained sovereignty over all governmental functions not specifically relinquished to the national government. The individual articles set the rules for current and future operations of the United States government. It was made capable of making war and peace, negotiating diplomatic and commercial agreements with foreign countries, and deciding disputes between the states, including their additional and contested western territories. Article XIII stipulated that "their provisions shall be inviolably observed by every state" and "the Union shall be perpetual". John Dickinson's and Benjamin Franklin's handwritten drafts of the Articles of Confederation are housed at the National Archives in Washington, DC. 9 Page
