The llno of battle, as now formed, marked tho ground on which tho famous Howlett line of works wero constructed, and which were held until Kichmond fell. Tho Howlett llne, so famlllarly known in Confederate history, extend¬ ed from tho Howlett farm at a hlch bluff on tho south sldo of the Jamea Rlver. at a point uearly opposite Dutch Gap, Bouthw'ard and parallel wlth tho Richmond and Petersburg Rallroad, to the Appomattox Rlver, strlking that river some flve miles be¬ low Petersburg. -Here General Beauregard made hla stand and commenced to ontrench, placing redoubts at lntervals with suffl- clont artlllery for defenslvo work. II was only a few days after this stand was taken that Generai Grant de¬ scrlbed the sltuatlon by^ saylng that "Beauregard had bottled "up Butler at Bermuda Hundred and sealea the cork lri*"the bottle," a most apt descriptlon, when taking into consideratlon the narrow strlp of land to which hc waa conflned and the rlvers and marshes on each flank and in hls roar.

Tho property has been In thc famlly for over 200 years, coming through the Battalles and Fitzhughs to tho Gordons. Tho orlglnal traot, of about C.000 acres. was known as "Fllntshiro," and tho resldenco was on the rlver front Tho flrat dato whleh is proserved is a deed convcying tnorc land to John Bnttailo from Samuel Prossor, ln 1722. This John Battailo marrled Sarah Ta¬ liaterro, and their tomb at Fllntshiro Is dated 1733, Thelr only child, Sarah, marrled Henry (3) Fltzhugh, of Bed¬ ford, Klng George county, in 1748. (Ho was a grandson of Colonel Win. Fltz¬ hugh. of Bedfordshirc, England. who oamc to thls country wlth Lord Falr¬ fax. and marrled Sarah Tuckor ln 1674.) Thls imion waa blessed with fourteen sons and daughters. viz.: Henry (4), marrled Elizaboth Buckncr Stith; John (1) Battalle. unmarrled-, Wm.

Tho parents of thls largo famlly wero fond of travellng about In thelr coach and four. to tho sprlngs In sum¬ mer and to vislt thelr chlldren who had marrled and scattered throughout Vir¬ ginia, at othor seasons. In vlslting thelr son, Nicholns, who llved In Falr¬ fax, they always spent tho nlght at Mt. Vernon, belng Intlmate with the Washtngtoos. On one occaslon old Reubon. tho driver, who never left hls coach, day or night, was suddenly dls- turbed about daybreak by a great fuss at the stables. Ho ran down to flnd the "general" having ono of his young scrvants chastlsed.

Tho homes on the river were not thought healthy in those days, and on one occaslon Mr. Fitzhugh nnd hls brother Glles rode through tho beautiful old forest on tho sloptng hllls to seek a location for .a summer house. Thoy were most happy in their solection, nnd thls was the beginnlng of Santee, for upon the hllls a summer houso was orected. So pleased .were they with the hllls that Fllntshiro was soon forsadten, and a handsoxno brick" house, with soven rooms, two largo halls and beautiful wtndlng- stalrcase, was bullt, with tho summer house in tho rear. Here con¬ tlnued the old-timo hospltality, the favored gtiosts boing tho Blshops of tho Episcopal Church, on tholr way to Port Royal. Tho only chlld of Battailo (4) and Ellzabeth Tallaferro Fltzhugh was Patsy (5) Julla Dodman. Sho married Samuel Gordon, of Konmoro, ln 1S25. It ls sald that when he dsked Mr. Fltahugh for the hand of hls lovjely daughter, then ln hor toens, that ho was vory thoughtful for quito a while, and then sald; "Mr. Gordon, yOu may havo my" child, but you cannot take hor from Santee."
