R., Moday night in the Transfiguration Parish House. He was introduced by President Richard G. McChesney. Mr. Bailey actually traced 'the history of Long Island, describing the fights between the..English and the Dutch for control. lie^said one time the Island was known as Crooked Road, because of the many pirates who infested its waters. In fact, he added, the pirates out- numbered the legitimate seamen. He remarked that in 1G92, Gover- nor Fletcher entertained the pirate chieftain, and -explained to the church people he did so because it was the only way to assure safety for. the ihips. Mr. Bailey said that in compari- son ^to New England, -Long Island had not received its fair share of credit in the Revolution: He tolrl of an Austin Rowe who carried secret messages on horseback from New York to Setauket, making hundreds of trips in civilian attire. Consequently, according to Mr. Baiiey, he ran a greater risk than Paul Revere. SPORTSWEAR WORK CLOTHES Shoes'— Rubber Boots Famous Lee Overalls and Fonts 25 W.
