As a mark of respect, his son was elected vestryman in his place. There were at least nine obituary articles on Mr. Cradock in Maryland newspapers.

    A grand plan: Flirting with treason How Ethan Allen and his brothers chased success in the real estate business John J. Duffy Ira Allen 1751-1814 Bennington Museum collection In memorials produced long after his death in 1789, Ethan Allen has been remembered in statues in Vermont and in the Congressional Hall of Statuary in Washington, DC; in military posts named for him in Virginia during the Civil War and in Colchester, Vermont, an 1890s post, its original structures now residential and commercial sites. Though Allen sailed the seas only as a British prisoner in 1776, two Union coastal defense boats dis- played his name in the 1860s. A century later, the nuclear submarine Ethan Allen fired the first nuclear-tipped missile from below the ocean’s surface in the early 1960s. Ethan is probably best remembered from mostly fictional tales and stories about his heroic and other deeds, especially the pre-dawn capture of the British forts at Ticonderoga and Crown Point in May 1775 during the earliest months of the American War for Independence from Great Britain. Some say he was the most important founder of Vermont. On that latter point, however, remembrances of Ethan Allen seem to forget that he was far from Vermont when the state’s independence was de- Walloomsack Review 14 clared in 1777. He had been a prisoner of the British since September 1775 when he was captured after foolishly attacking Montreal with only one-hun- dred poorly armed Americans and Canadians against a force of five-hundred defenders – British regulars, Loyalist militia, and Mohawk warriors.

  • Hrist Episcopal Church Is Almost As Old As the City of Washington, Nearly As Old As the Nation Itself
    1 CHRIST CHURCH WASHINGTON PARISH/A BRIEF HISTORY hrist Episcopal Church is almost as old as the city of Washington, nearly as old as the nation itself. Since the beginning of the nineteenth century, this charming, tidy building, later remodeled to look like an English country church in Gothic Revival style, has crowned a little knoll on Capitol Hill, the bell tower soaring above the neighborhood's FederalC and Victorian row houses. In 1993, the Society of Architectural Historians, in its book Buildings of the District of Columbia, cited the 1807 church unequivocally as "the earliest structure in the city built to serve an ecclesiastical purpose." The founding of the church parish dates back even earlier, to 1794. It was created by an act of the Maryland legislature. In 1994, Christ Church, Washington Parish, celebrated its bicentennial as the "mother parish" of all Episcopal parishes in the original Federal city. The Interior Department put the building on its National Register of Historic Places in 1969. Thomas John Claggett, the first Episcopal bishop to be ordained on American soil, consecrated Christ Church in 1809, two years after its completion. Of it he wrote: "It is not large, but sufficiently elegant, and is the first building that hath been erected by the Protestant Episcopalians, for public worship, at the seat of government."

If you boarded in either of these two cities, just read the guide in reverse, remembering to look in the opposite direction if one is referenced. AMTRAK STATIONS are shown in all capital letters, as opposed to upper and lower case for towns, sites and geographical areas through which the train travels but does not stop.

The Vermonter has its origins in the original Montrealer service offered by the former Boston and Maine (B&M) Railroad, serving Washington, D.C. and Montreal, with intermediate stops. The B&M ceased passenger service in 1965, and Amtrak began to provide nationwide passenger service in 1971. Soon thereafter, Amtrak’s version of the Montrealer began serving the route.
