NOTE

General Anderson's father having rendered such distinguished service to our country, it seems appropriate to give a brief outline of his career in this volume, also Duncan Clinch, his wife's father.

"Your father led the van, Bob,

The siege of Charleston stood,
The bravest of the brave, Bob,
A patriot true and good."

A. W. Burns
