4 New Monument 20 He Erected Over
Her Grave.
Mrs. l.. j. Beard, New York bust
ness woman and a most patriotic
American, has been empowered by
Mrs. John 4. Goolrick, President OF
the Mary Washington Monument As
sociation. OF fredericksburg, Va, TO
take steps toward the raising of a fund
to aid in the erection of a new monu-
ment to be placed over the grave OF
Mary Washington, the mother of George
Washington, at fredericksburg. The
present monument was erected many
years ago, and has not only never been
finished but has fallen into partial de-
cay. The patriotic feelings of the
ladies of Virginia became aroused over
this fact some time ago, and the pres
emit association was formed for the pur-
pose of erecting q new monument.
Mrs. Boards plan is to have large
number of steel engravings made OF
Mary Washington. taken from an oil
painting now in the possession of de-
scendants of George Washington liv.
ing at Fredericksburg. This is the
only likeness of Mrs. Washington in
existence and was painted in England.
