The Original Will of George Washington

Secretary 7. e. Morton of the Virginia
Worlds Fair Board, during visit last week
to Fairfax G.. H., upon business connected
with the Worlds Fair, came across a rare old
document, being nothing less than the origi-
nal will Of George Washington written with
his own hand. 1t is highly priced by the peo-
pie of Fairfax and guarded with almost relig-
ious care by the county officials, being now in
charge of the county court and kept by the
clerk in a strong walnut box about
glass I'D through which the ancient instru-
ment can be scanned by the curious, without
running the risk OF being clipped or torn by
relic hunters OF worn by mnch handling.
signed at the bottom of each page as we'll as
at the end, and dated 1892. An immense
amount OF property is disposed Of. including
land in almost every State in the then Union
note at that time, conveying the impression
that the distinguished teStator must have been
a man of great wealth. This valuable old
document was, during the late war, preserved
in way SO remarkable that it seems provi-
Dental. When the Union army first drew
near to Fairfax e. H. the will was with
jealous care, sent by safe hands to the capitol
OF the Confederacy where it was supposed to
be securely deposited among the archives Of
the State Department. Here it remained Sc
cure for four years. until Richmond was
evacuated, when in the hurry of packing up
and destroying valuable papers IN the capt.
tol, it was left among some rubbish on the
floor of an office room and trampled upon and
torn almost in two by hurrying feet. Among
the last to pass through the room was citi-
zen of Fairfax county, who being attracted
by the unusual appearance of the paper pick
ed it up and at once recognizing its value
thrust it in his bosom and in time returned it
to its proper custodians, where it Was joyful
ly received and has been all the more care
fully guarded ever since.
