    Caesar Rodney's Services and During the American Revolution

    E207 .R6 .F73 Delaware's hero for all times and all seasons by William P. Frank I © Copyright, 1975, by the Delaware American Revolution Bicentennial Commission Design by James A. Collins B IVES hero bv William P. Frank Illustrations by A. N. Wyeth Delaware American Revolution Bicentennial. Commission Wilmington, Delaware 1975 This booklet is dedicated to The Honorable Sherman W. Tribbitt, Governor of the Delaware, in recognition of his own dedication to bringing proper recognition of Caesar Rodney's services and during the American Revolution. Thomas McKean, Caesar Rodney, and George Read, Deirnt·are 's signers of the Declaration of Independence. Caesar Rodney rides through American history as the patron saint of his native state, Delaware's principal hero of the American Revolutionary War. In his brief 55-year life he held more public offices than any other Delawarean before or since. He was a soldier, a judge, a delegate to the American Continental Congress, speaker of the Delaware Assembly, a chief executive of Delaware, a justice of the state's Supreme Court, and held many other offices of public trust. Unlike Thomas McKean, George Read, and John Dickinson, with whom he served in Congress, Rodney was not a scholar. McKean and Dickinson, because they were more learned, were better known beyond Delaware's boundaries than was Rodney. But it is Rodney's name, not McKean's, Dickinson's nor Read's that is familiar to Americans today. The equestrian statue in Wilmington, Delaware, of Rodney riding to Philadelphia to cast Delaware's deciding vote for the Declaration of Independence in July, 1776, has been adopted by scores of writers, artists, playwrights, poets and businesses as the symbol of Delaware's participation in the American Revolution and the Declaration.

The four bay facade with 12 over 12 sash downstairs and 9 over 9 on second story gives unusual wall space and the rather high string course gives emphasis to the main story and pleasing proportions. The simple hood over the front door of.fers shelter and stresses the entrance. The plain, simple and primitive character of the interior paneling and trim as well as the rather heavy stair balusters, hand rail and newel post are in accord with the age of the home as is the rather heavy interior cornice.

DELAWARE III (2008) “The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there.” --L. P. Hartley, from “The Go Between” The 2008 decision of the United States Supreme Court in New Jersey v. Delaware1 (“NJ v. DE III”) was hailed as a victory for Delaware, and so it was. The Court upheld Delaware’s authority to block the construction of a liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) unloading terminal that would have extended from New Jersey’s side of the Delaware River well into Delaware territory. But while the case involved modern concerns over the environment, clean energy, and even the threat of terrorist attack, the States’ underlying dispute was, like the River itself, of ancient origin, with a folklore of its own, and powerful, sometimes twisting currents. This was New Jersey’s third Supreme Court original jurisdiction action against Delaware since the Civil War, all challenging Delaware’s claim to sovereignty within a twelve-mile circle from the town of New Castle, which reaches across the River to within a few feet of the New Jersey side.
