The Manor House which soon

the work of restoration may not be
unduly delayed.
Aside from the Revolutionary in-
terest that marks Yorktown as one
of the most important spots in
American history. this secluded lit-
tle village also can lay claim to be-
lng the centre of fierce engagements
of the Civil war. It was here that
the Peninsula Campaign was waged,
in and about Yorktown. and the ram-
' -parts and intrenchments made by
the Revolutionary forces were em-
ployed by the Blue and Gray armies.
After the Civil War, Yorktown
was again forgotten until the out-
break of the \Vorld war. when this
place was selected by the United
States government as the base for
operations for the entire battle fleet.
Safe and secluded anchorage is af-
forded in the Charles River with
