A Fine Job by Our Seabees

LT. CMDR. MAX MILLER and I are staying briefly in a room of a bachelor officers quarters—or bog. Our famous seabees have put them up all over these various islands since we took over from the Japanese ast summer, : ry They aré in the curved form of immense quonsett Phuts, made of corrugated metal and with concrete [floors. Some of them are even two-storied. Thgy

have a wide hall down the center, and individual

rooms on each side. The walls are cream-colored. The outside wall is almost all window, to let 10ts.of Ir in. The spaces are screened but have no glass, for t never gets so cold you'd want to shut the window. But it is pleasantly cool at night, and we sleep under pne blanket. Each room has a clothes closet and a washstand and a chest of drawers. And also two beds. These beds are the talk of the Marianas. They are American beds, with double mattresses, soft and wonderful. As everybody says, they're finer beds than you'd have at home. I ran into one army officer who had served in Europe, and he laughed and

conscious about sleeping like this over here. . But if the navy wants to send over these beds, I'm sure as hell ‘going to ‘sleep in them,” i _ Naturally everybody on these islands doesn't live like that, for these quarters aré only for transient visitors like myself, and staff officers. The great working camps of the seabees and the troops are largely of tents, with ordinary cots in them. But on the whole, now that we have been improving the islands for several months, everybody lives pretty comfortably, : :

She was parrying an umbrella.” After making a purchase at the meat counter, Mrs. Moriarity absent-mindedly raised thé umbrella, - held it over her and; oblivious to the stares of starjd- “ holdérs and customers, walked on out of the market. You'd have thought they were selifng cigarets at the Manual celebration Saturday night at the Scottish Rite. ' But they weren't.

THE RUMOR grew as rumors will. In the course of the next six years it achieved. the stature of an historical fact, In support of which I submit abridged editorials from two old Indianapolis papers. « In 1857, the Journal said: “On Saturday $orning (Feb. 22), an old Negro, 'Thomas -Magruder, better known as ‘Old Uncle Tom," reputed to be 110 years old, died in his cabin at the corner of Market and Noble streets.... To those unacquainted with ‘Old Tom, the most interesting circumstance connected with him is the probability that ‘he gave the name and the leading features of the character to Mrs. Stowe’s celebrated hero.”

MORE THAN a year later, The Citizen, a curt new afternoon paper, remarked: “It is believed that Thomas Magruder, an old Negro who died about a year ago, was the ‘veritable: Uncle Tom.'*” The Citizen's belated and somewhat cryptic remark was inspired by a hot newspaper story at the time. * It appears that a Boston dime museum, at’ that very moment, was displaying (and billing) an aged Negro as “the veritable Uncle Tom” of Mrs. Stowe's best ‘seller. What the two newspapers failed to mention was the string

of strange stories responsible for the Indianapolis legend. Today we know these stories because of Calvin Fletcher, Jacob P. Dunn and Paxton Hibben, a group of intellectuals who, apparently, spent all their spare-time diagnosing the fabulous eight years of Henry Ward Beecher’s stay in Indianapolis (1839-47). Taken alone, every one of these stories is sufficient unto itself. Linked together, they form a chain of coincidences, the like of which can’t be matched anywhere except, maybe, in the unbelievable novels of E. Phillips Oppenheim.

yo» COINCIDENCE No. 1: It is an established fact . that Harriet Beecher Stowe visited Indianap-

“Beecher developed quite a fond-

as “Uncle Tom.” He called him that to his face. Even more to the point: He always designafed Mr. Magruder’s home as “Uncle Tom's cabin.” » n » COINCIDENCE No. 2: When Harriet visited her brother, he ~took her to ‘§ge “Uncle Tom.” After that visit she went again, and this time she took paper and pencil with her. For which there is documentary proof. The Noble family, for instance, treasures a diary entry that “Mrs. Stowe was a frequent visitor at Uncle Tom's cabin and wrote much of her book there.” The latter part: of this statement, says Jacob Dunn, is probably an‘exaggerated reference to her taking notes. The Noble family gets into -t6day's piece because of their illustrious ancestor, Governor Noah Noble, who brought Tom and his wife, Sarah, to Indianapolis in 1831. Moreover it was he who built the cabin for them. All of which is explained by the fact that Tom Magruder was the freed slave of Governor Noble's father, .

» - » COINCIDENCE No. 3 concerns the famous Chapter IV of “Uncle Tom's Cabin.” In that chapter, Mrs. Stowe meticulously describes her hero's family, the members of which were two boys (Mose and Pete) and a baby girl. : Tom Magruder, the Indianapolis “Unéle Tom,” had only two children (Moses and his siste}, Louisa). However, the Magruders had another boy in their menage who wasn't in any way related to them. His name was Peter. It's the gospel truth, so help me. There is a well-founded tradition in the Dunn family that Peter was living with “Uncle Tom” when Harriet took notes in Indianapqlis.
