a COLONIAL Graveyard.

Neglected TJhbs of tho Cavaliers Of che
Old Dominion.
In C-ie'C1Cy fredericksburg, adjoin-
ing st. Georges church, and held IN
trust by st. Georges vestry, is spot of
unusual interest and that should appeal
with great force to many people, as
Well without as within the state of Vir-
ginia. This is the old cemetery adjoin-
ing the churchyard. A glance at the
tombstones still standing here, says the
Southern Churchman, awakens many
memories of the Golden time" the
knightly and sanity days of the r'Old
Dominion" Here lies all that is mortal
of Bette Washington Lewis, sister of
that greatest of all Americans, George
Washington; and by her side lies
her husband, Fielding Lewis. Here
awaiting the resurrection, lies the
body of shat apostle of the revival
of the church in Virginia, Rev. Ed
ward c. Mcclure, and with him his
wife, descendant of Bette Washing
ton, and their child. Here occur names
well known in Virginia's glorious past;
such as Maury ami Marshall, Rose and
Strother, and Chew, and Cooke, and
Taliaferro, and Knox, and Johnston,
and Bolts, and Mason, and Ashby, and
Bali, and Carter, and Coalter, and many
another, around which the best tradi-
tions of our state cluster in fragrant
memories. This spot, which should be
so dear to all who love and venerate
all that is truest and best in the past of
the old mother of states and statesmen,
as now tangled wilderness of bushes
and briars. The tombs are fast falling
to decay beneath the never resting hand
of time, and ere many more wears of
neglect shall pass, much that is v;sl.aa-
bic and beautiful and helpful in the ST.
lent record of its treasured memories
will have been lost beyond recovery.
band of noble and upselfiSh women
have determined that ii love and labor
can save this sacred spot and preserve
its tender memories of a revered past, It
shaR be done. Love they can and will
give gladly and willingly and labor
they give as but a part and proof of
their love; but they need financial as
'sistance, more than it Is possible to give
themselves. And for this cause they
appeal to all who love Virginia's past
and revere and admire her mighty
names and glorious memories to aid
