KNoCKiSd WASHINGTON DowN AT tho
time Gen. Washington was stationed at Alex-
andria, Va, as q colonel of British regiment
before tho war of the Revolution, on clterca-
ton took place in the court house yard be-
tween him and Wm. Payne, in which Payne
knocked Washington down. Great exotic,
ment prevailed. rs Payne was known to DO
tirm' and Washington was beloved by all. A
nights reflection. however satisfied Washing.
ton that ho was the aggresser and in tho
wrong, and in tho morning he. like a truo
and magnanimous hero, sought an interview
with Payne, which resulted in an apology
from Washington and warm and listing
friendship between the two. founded on mutual
esteem. During tho Revolutionary war,
while Washington was on n visit to his family,
William Payne, with his son DeVall, went to
pay his respects to the great American chief.
General Washington met him some distance
from tho house, took him by the hand and
led him into the presence Of Mrs. Washing,
ton, to whom ho introduced Mr.. Payne rs
follows: "My dear, here is tho littlo man
whom you have 80 frequently heard mo speak
Of who cncc had tho courage to knock me
down in tho court house yard in Alexandria
