Historical.
Colonel Rich'd H. Savage, Chief Aid to Gen'l John McCoMB, the Grand Marshal chosen by the citizeus of the City and County of San Francisco to provide and in a fitting manner arrange for the celebration of the Anniversary of American Independence, in his address, dated June 17th, 1875, to the people iuvoking their aid and co-operation, said:
"The uear approach of the Ninety-ninth Anniversary of the Decla- ration of American Independence is the signal to invoke good citizens to aid iu perfecting the arrangements for a fitting celebration of the
honored day.
*********
"Without partisan or sectional bias, looking only to the glorious national meinories of the past and to the prosperous future stretching far before us, let us, dsvellers by the Westex'n Sea, send back a loyal greeting to our fellow-citizens nearer the birthplace of National Freedom.
"The first century of American freedom draws to its glorious close. National trials and struggles for existence have not shattered the noble fabric of Republican self-government, cemented as it is by the blood of our Revolutionary forefathers. Looking backward to the early vicissi- taie3 of oar National existence, the American citizen sees in the high- souled patriotism of the Revolution the grandest model of duty and self-devotion. Let us fittingly honor the day, the men, the deed. The Independence of America! its proclamation gave hope to suffering millions; its achievement has given happiness to a vast nation, in wealth and numbers far surpassing the most sanguine hopes of the many heroes who fought for posterity, who died that we might be free. In peacefnl enjoyment of the freedom so dearly purchased, let us, as a grateful body of fellow-citizens, forget any dividing line in the one proud boast that we are Americans."
One of the results of Col. Savage's appeal was the forma- tion and appearance in the procession of a platoon of soldiers in Continental dress, comman ied by Capt. F. C. M. Fenn, who subsequently became a member of the California Society of the Sons of Revolutionary Sires.
The Daily Alia of July 6th, 1875, said o£ Capt. Fenn's command: "It was a marked feature of the procession, and as they marched past in their antique uniform, one almost fancied that the procession was a pageant of the 17th century, rather than a celebration of this age of military and civic enlightenment." And further says: "The names of cele- brated battlefields and heroes of the Revolution, the separate letters of the words entwined in evergreen wreaths, the whole suspended across the streets, were handsome and were generally admired."
The call issued by Col. Savage took root in fertile soil, for at about this period a few patriotic and enthusiastic citizens of San Francisco, descendants of the early emigrants and colonists of America, were quietly moving and endeavoring to bring to the notice of their immediate associates of Amei'i- can blood and birth the duty of honoring the founders of the American nation, and of perpetuating the principles for which these heroes " pledged their lives and their sacred honor," and of producing a higher appreciation of the responsibilities and obligations of American citizenship.
Scarcely had the echoes of the celebration of Independence Day died away, when the sentiments aroused on that occasion assumed form and expression. A hundred days later, Fri- day evening, October 22ud, 1875, a meeting of descendants of soldiers, sailors and patriots of the Revolutionary War was called at the office of Dr. James L. Cogswell, No. 230 Kearny street, San Francisco. Among those present at this meeting were Major Edwin A. Sherman, Deputy U. S. Sur- veyor-General for Nevada, Ira C. Root, Dr. P. W. Raudle, Rush R. Randle, Joseph Weed, Dr. Emory L. Willard and others, " who, when convened, did after consultation and due and proper consideration, proceed to formulate a plan of, and take preliminary steps for, the institution and organization of a society composed of descendants of soldiers, sailors and patriots of the Revolutionary War, or more spe- cifically understood and known as the War of 1776, whose deeds of valor in the field and services in the Council
Chamber achieved the independence of the Colonies of the United States of America."
At this provisional meeting, Dr. P. W. Randle was elected President. Dr. Randle was born at Sparta, Georgia, Novem- ber 9th, 1806. His sire was Captain Josias Handle of the Virginia Line, who, for a time, served as Aid-de-camp to General Washiugton. With his father he removed to Illinois in 1810, and later received his education at Transylvania College, Kentucky. He served with Abraham Lincoln in the Black Hawk War and was a Surgeon in the Mexican War and during the War of the Rebellion. On December 19th, 1849, he arrived at San Francisco in the ship Arkansas, and ia the latter years of his life was connected with the U. S. Mint at San Francisco, where he died, January 13th, 1884. His remains were committed to mother earth by George H. Thomas Post, No. 2, G. A. R., of which he was a member, in accordance with the ceremouies of tlie Grand Army of the Republic.
The provisional organization thus initiated, known as the Society of Sons of Revolutionary Sires, was held well in hand, when, on the 26th day of June, 1876, Centennial Year, the following card from a lady whose name is unknown appeared in the Daily Alta California:
Editor Alia:
Wouldn't it be a most novel but strikingly interesting idea in the programme of the procession for our City Centennial Celebration, to have represented our grandparents of the Revolution by the grand- children now living, residents of this city ? There might not be a single living son or daughter, but no doubt there might be a score or more of real grandchildren.
Wouldn't it be splendid if enough couJd be found to represent every State in the Union, to ride in a car sufficiently large to carry them all each one carrying a small flag with the name of the State they repre- sent, and the car designated "The Revolutionary Grandchildren?"
The writer of tliis is such an one, an elderly lady 55 years of age. I am the granddaughter and the step-granddaughter of six who passed through that bloody struggle inaugurated by the Declaration, the anni- versary of the signing of which we have celebrated for 9iy years, and now are about to give unusual eclat to the Centennial Anniversary. Two of those grandparents lived to be 93 and 96 years of age; both
9
received pensions from the U. S. Government; one of tliem never laid on a bed after that terrible struggle for our liberty, being deprived of that privilege through the asthma contracted from taking colds, sleeping out in snows and rains, suffering and exposure.
If the writer could be transported back to my native home in good old Massachusetts, almost in sight of Plymouth Rock, I could (I think it is so fresh in my memory) put my feet on the very spot where I have stood with one of my grandmothers when she ti Id me thf re was where my grandfather dropped his plow, rushed into the old farmhouse, shouldered his musket, kissed her and his infant child (which only died two years ago, just 100 years old), mounted his farm nag just unhitched from the plow, and while the terrible sound of the horseman. To Arms! To Arms! was ringing in my grandmother's ears, he was away to Boston as a volunteer. All honor to our glorious, noble grandparents to-day. I could tell many, many incidents that they all have related to me, so green and fresh and heart-stirring to-day to me as when a child I heard them from their own lips, which I have told myself to many a dear little child in this city to try to explain what the 4th of July or Independence means. These things must be kept before the minds of our young and rising generation, for from some of them, at least, must come the future support of the whole fabric so dearly won by those martyred heroes, whose cry — Liberty or Death — went up to the ears of a willing Merciful Father to relieve us from tyranny and oppression, making a home for all to worship as they choose, and to buy, sell and get gain, and send it where they list.
If the General of the day thinks anything of this — for I know you will let him see it— tell him I want to go and carry the old Bay State Flag, my dear native home, which I have not seen for fourteen years. I am the poor widow of one of the victims of the privateers of our last war, living in obscurity.
Yours, etc.,
To the unknown correspondent of the Alia Dr. Cogswell replied in the following communication:
REVOLUTIONARY DESCENDANTS.
Editor Alta:
The idea suggested by the granddaughter of one of our Revolu- tionary Sires seems a capital one; and as I belong in the same category with your correspondent, being the grandson of one of the Revolutionary heroes, I shall be happy to have all who belong to this class call at my office, No, 2.30 Kearny street, and organize for the occasion.
Signed,
J. L. Cogswell.
San Francisco, June 26ih, 1876.

The issue of the Alia of June 28th contained the following local item (written by Geo. B. Mackrett, Journalist):
"The grandchildren of Revolutionary Heroes have been invited to meet at the office of Dr. Cogswell, 230 Kearny street, and organize for the proper celebration of the day which their grandfathers fought to make the Republic's great national holiday; and it is not likely that any will be lax in the display of their patriotism through any proper channel that may be open to them. This is the time to arouse the enthusiasm and fire the patriotism of every son of freedom."
Pursuant to the call, a number of descendants of Kevolu- tionary soldiers and sailors convened at the office of Dr. Cogswell, and agreed to connect themselves with the Society "planned and formulated" on the previous 22nd day of October, 1875, and to participate in the Centennial Anni- versary of American Independence, the celebration of the day having been entrusted to a General Committee of leading citizens of San Francisco. At the request of the assembled Revolutionary descendants the Grand Marshal issued the following invitation:
1776. 1876.
ATTENTION DESCENDANTS OF REVOLUTIONARY
PATRIOTS!
Headquarters Centennial Committee, 212 Kearny Street.
Sak Francisco, June 28th, 1876. You are hereby requested to meet at the Headquarters of the Grand Marshal, No. 212 Kearny Street, at 8 o'clock p. m., on Thursday, June 29th, for the purpose of making arrangements to participate in the celebration of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Nation's Inde- pendence. Charles L. Wiggin,
Chief of Staff to the Grand Marshal.
On the same date of the issuance of the above invitation, the AUa., through its local column, called attention of de- scendants of Revolutionary Sires to the approaching cele- bration in these words:
" The descendants of the Revolutionary patriots in this city are re- quested to meet at Headquarters of the Grand Marshal, No. 212 Kearny street, at eight o'clock this evening, for the purpose of making arrange- ments to participate in the Centennial Celebration."
The foregoing request met with a hearty response, there being present about twenty-five persons claiming the distinc-
11
tion and honor of being enrolled as descendants of Revolu- tionary Sires, and arrangements were perfected for having a parade on Independence Day followiug. An adjournment to meet at the Palace Hotel Saturday evening, July 1st, was then taken.
At the adjourned meeting the action to have a parade on July 4th was concurred in by almost thirty additional eligibles for membership who were present, the whole form- ing a nucleus for a promising parade on Independence Day, When the glorious day arrived, there were no less than eighty-eight names enrolled, eight of whom were actual Sons of Revolutionary Soldiers; but at the present writing only one of these — John K. Robinson — is borne on the rolls. Since that date two more have been enrolled, John C. B. Rutherford and Milton Andros.
The parade attracted a great deal of attention, the line of march starting from the Palace Hotel at 9:30 a. m. and pass- ing through the principal streets, everywhere receiving that homage which would naturally fall to the descendants of those whose services destroyed the yoke of tyranny and made the glorious Stars and Stripes the symbol of a land of freedom in perpetuity. After the parade the little band returned to the Palace Hotel and there joined in, and more fully completed its organization as planned and formulated October 22nd, 1875.
Now a word as to the objects of this society. From its very inspiration the promoters of the California Society planned that the organization should be made National in its attributes, and among other objects its first constitution provided for the organization of " auxiliaries, co-equal branches and representative bodies." The California organi- zation was perfected July 4, 1876, or seven years prior to the formation of any similar organization in any State in the Union.
This plain statement of existing facts should forever set at rest its claim for dominance in point of life, and as all permanent bodies must possess parentage, so did the Cali- fornia organization become the sire of all assimilated branches and will forever remain as such — despite all quib- bling to the contrary.
12
The National Society early recognized the services of the California Society, by the adoption of, at the first National Congress, at Louisville, Ky., April 30, 1890, the following resolution :
" }V}i,ereas, The Society of the Sons of the American Revohition was first organized in the State of California on the Fourth of July, 1876 ; and
JVhereas, To Colonel A. S. Hubbard, of the California Society, is due, in a large degree, the credit of organizing that Society, and, in a still greater degree, the credit of maintaining that Society through trials which would have discouraged a less patriotic man ; now, therefore.
Resolved, That in the publication of the names of the Presidents - General of the National Society of the Sons of the American Revo- lution, the name of Colonel A. S. Hubbard be hereafter included.
Resolved, That the Secretary General be, and is hereby, instructed to inform Colonel A. S. Hubbard of the honor which this Congress has conferred upon him.
At the third National Congress, at New York City, April 30, 1892, on motion of Mr. Henry Hall, Historian General, it placed on record the following tribute to the memory of the late General Albert M. Winn:
Resolved, That the name of A. M. Winn, first President of the Cali- fornia Society, shall hereafter appear in the roll of Past Presidents- General of this Society.
