Racial Origin -English. Source -A given name. Here is a family name, widely known if not widely borne, which would be a good bit of a puzzle were it not possible to trace it ba.ck, step by step, through the centuries to a source in. an old Anglo-Saxon given name. This latter is one of those which have entirely disappeared in the course, of the development in nomem- clature which followed the Norman M- vasion and the language changes of more modern times. And it might be remerked here that the number of Anglo-Saxon given names which have disappeared completely is far greater than those which are still in use to- day. In this case the name was "Hes- cuith." It probably suffered a loss in the period immediately following the Norman invasion. Nevertheless., the old names were retained to a certain extent among the subdued Anglo-Sax- ons probably the greatest number of them disappearing in the latter period of amalgamation than the earlier one of subjugation. But the name had not entirely disappeared at the time family names began to form, and it is first traceable as "Ilescuith's-son."

It's What You Do That Counts. It isn't the job you intended to do, Nor the labor you've just begun That puts' you right on the ledger sheet, It's the work you have actually done. Your credit is based on the things you do, Your debit on things you shdrk. The man that totals the biggest plus Is the man that completes his work. Good intentions do not pay bilis; It's easy enough to plan. To wish is the play of an office bay, TO DO is the work of a man. He Knew. Mr. and MTS.
