Y MARYLAND HISTORICAL MAGAZINE A Quarterly Volume XLIX DECEMBER, 1954 Number THE UNVEILING OF THE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT OF THE STAR- SPANGLED BANNER IN the Main Gallery and adjoining Library of the Keyser Me- morial, headquarters of the Maryland Historical Society, a large audience assembled for the unveiling of the original manu- script of The Star-Spangled Banner. President George L. Radcliffe opened the meeting at 8:20 p. m. on September 14, 1954. MR. RADCLIFFE: Ladies and Gentlemen: You are present tonight to witness an out- standing event in the history of the Society. Before proceeding with the program I shall ask Father Driscoll to offer the invocation. REV. WILLIAM M. J. DRISCOLL, S. J.: This historical manuscript is the first draft of the most famous expres- sion of praise and devotion to our flag. It is our traditional salute to America. 259 260 MARYLAND HISTORICAL MAGAZINE We make to God this prayer today. Lord of Hosts, let us do for our country something even finer than the thing that was done by Francis Scott Key. He paid to America a superb tribute in words. Help us to give her the great and more sublime salute of deeds and actions—the living of our lives as true Americans. Yet more, O Lord: this Star-Spangled Banner and all it stands for we love with our whole hearts. Protect it with Thy omnipotent power, cherish it with Thy infinite love; give peace and security to this land so precious to us. Said Thomas Jefferson: " The last hope of human liberty in this world rests on us." His words were never truer than they are today. Let us take our stand beneath this Star-Spangled Banner and let us be firm in hope and grounded in courage. The bombs are still bursting in air; there is, across the world, the cannons' red glare; may our flag, always, imperishably, serenely, victoriously, be there—even as it was that night 140 years ago tonight, when Francis Scott Key saw it continuously flying— through the night—until the dawn—until peace. This, O Lord, is our prayer. Offered at Baltimore, the birthplace of this glorious anthem, in Maryland, fair elder daughter of American freedom. MR. RADCLIFFE: The eloquent prayer that you have just heard reflects the feelings of all of us here for the unveiling of a manuscript, one of the most valuable documents in American history. Good fortune has been kind to our Society. When the fate of that manuscript was uncertain and a great library in another city was opening negotiations to obtain it, Mrs. Thomas C. Jenkins gave us all the money needed for its purchase. You are all aware that two years ago Mrs. Jenkins presented to the Society a splendid collection of portraits of the Key family, including one of Francis Scott Key, and also paid for all the expenses of fitting up the Key Room in the Society's building. Now Mrs. Jenkins has made it possible for the Society to own this first complete draft of The Star-Spangled Banner and has provided a lovely setting for it which you will see in a few moments. The gift of the manuscript and the marble niche containing it are a memorial to the late Mrs. George C. Jenkins, born Catherine Key, a cousin of Francis Scott Key. Mrs. George Jenkins was the mother of the late Thomas C. Jenkins, husband of our benefactress. The debt of the Society and of the com- munity at large to Mrs. Jenkins is, indeed, beyond computation. There are present, I believe, many who are allied to Francis Scott Key by descent or other close ties. His numerous descendants are living in various parts of the Country. We also have with us several persons who have devoted much study to the life of Francis Scott Key and to the Battle of Baltimore which called into being our National Anthem. Among them is the Honorable Edward S. Delaplaine, Judge of the Maryland Court of Appeals, who wrote an able biography of Francis Scott Key.

  • Joshua Barney —
    HISTORICAL SOCIETY NOTES AND DOCUMENTS THE DEATH AND INTERMENT OF JOSHUA BARNEY Rebecca Hoskins CC* IVHESE bones live in the patriotic affection of the American X people. Clothed in the image of God, and animated with the spirit of their departed heroes, they were the public property of the nation." lThus spoke William McCandless on May 12, 1848, as he gave the funeral oration upon the removal to Allegheny Cemetery of the body of Commodore Joshua Barney, renowned naval hero of the American Revolution. Few residents of Pittsburgh are aware that their city is the last resting place of Joshua Barney, a colorful naval officer of the Revolu- tionary War. Barney, whose portrait hangs in Independence Hall in Philadelphia, had several links with the state of Pennsylvania and, although they are far from the sea, it is fitting that his bones rest inPittsburgh. This article willhighlight Barney's career as itpertains to this state and area, and detail the circumstances surrounding his death and burial in Pittsburgh. Barney's naval career was varied and interesting. Born in Maryland in 1759, he followed his boyhood obsession with the sea and was commissioned a navy lieutenant in 1776. He was twice captured by the British and served a year in an English prison but escaped back to America. He served with distinction in the navy until 1784 when he left voluntarily after a dispute over his rank. For the next ten years he engaged in commercial ventures, until in 1794 he bought an estate inKentucky. Barney then entered the merchant service and sailed as a privateer until 1796 when he was appointed a commander in the French navy.
