Provided, further. That as to any build

AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN,
Mr.. Lamar's Canal Claim Bill Has Been
Amended.
An Interesting Relic Of Lorenso Dow,
the Noted Preacher-Many Notes
of Interest TO All.

The bill of Mr.. Lamar Of the MARYLAND
legislature. which provides for the appro-
priation OF s10.0o0 with which to settle the
numerous small claims held by laborers
and material men against the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal for labor and material fur
nished prior to the flood of 1851. has been
amended 1t was suggested to the legis-
lator that. many of these claims had
been parted with in hours of dire Necessity
for comparatively nothing. spectators
would be the ones who would mostly profit
by the passage of his bill.
The amendment therefore provides that
In any case where the holder of claims
purchased them for less than their face
value the board of public works is directed
to purchase the same upon the offer OF the
holder. who shall assign all his right. title
and interest in claim and also relinquish to
the original holder the difference between
the face value Of the certificates and the
amount they were bought for and there
after the original claimant will be paid the
difference. In any case where the amount
of the purchase has been forgotten a COM
promise is TO be effected between the pres
ent and original owners. A great many Of
these claims now held by Georgetown
merchants. who have taken them in ex-
change for goods.
Relic of Lorenzo Dow.
Mr.. Ralph c. Graves, a resident along the
line of the canal, has in his possession a
relic of the once famous itinerant preacher
Lorenzo Dow. consisting of the small trunk
he carried his worldly possessions in on all
his trips from town to town. The trunk
bears the initials l.. ID.
Lorenzo Dow, who is said to have preach
ed to more people than any minister of his
time. was mostly noted for his zealousness
in the cause of religion, his aversion to
absolute ur selfishness. He Travelled the
Atlantic coast frequently from Maine to
Florida, went to Europe. was several times
harshly treated in England by unsympa-
thizers, and was later requested TO preach
within the walls of Congress
He died In Georgetown at the house of q
believer, Mr.. Haller. on the site now occu-
pied by the store and dwelling numbered
l231 SD street and was buried with Ma
sonic honors in Holmeads burying ground,
at the head of 18th street. The remains on
the abolition of Holmeads. were reinterred
at Oak Hill. at the expense OF w. w.
Corcoran. The epitaph on the sandstone
slab which lies above the dust is said TO
have been written by the old preacher HIM
self shortly before his death. IL reads as
follows: He was a slave to no sect took
no common road, but looked TO nature up
to natures God"
Dow wrote several religious works His
wife Peggy acquired considerable reputation
a helper in the cause.
