EDelicious weather. sunny skies, and the cooling at
mosphee OF the river have been proptous to the ENJOY
men of these trips to Mount Vernon distant about six
teen miles. Fort w ashington is also visited famous
for having been blown up in the war of 1912 by its
cowardly commander, TO avoid action with the Bri-
fish irgate that must pass directly under her guns

difficulty in obtaining permission. The keeper aware
