Ex-senator John ]. ingalls,, who puts

style than any other public speaker in
An. erica at this time, was al the Carey

4 reporter for the Eagle, who had
never met Mr.. ingalls,, called Ct his room

and the Royal Arch Degrees.
Mr.. j. H. Mccall. editor OF the Kansas
Free Mason, resolved yesterday from DR..
John E. Whitecraft Of Macksville. Kan
Eas. the original Masonic apron which
was worn by George Washington, the
first president Of the United States. The
apron was given by General Washing Ton
10 Oliver WOlcott, one of the signers Of
the Declaration Of Independence. He
gave it TO mis- son john Wolcott, who in
turn, bequeathed il 70 MS son George II.
Woicott, who presented il 10 the present
owner in consideration OF a kindness ex-
tended TO him in the time Of sore need
The curio was originally of a light blue
color but age has turned it 10 a peculiar
yellow. Il is satin and the flap bears the
eiseeing eye, while upon the apron prop
or is portrayed the other Masonic en-
blems Of the lodge and the Royal Arch
degree. Il is Il 1-2 inches long and i
inches wide with round corners. The
flap is also different from the aprons now
worn by the fraternity, being round in
stead OF pointed.
d.. Whitecraft sent Mr.. Mccall some
interesting letters which he has received
which proves beyond a doubt that the
relic was really at one time the personal
property of Washington. One Of the let
tiers read:
Corning, April Stu, 1865.
ITO my son. George H. Wolcott.
My dear son, this apron was at one
time your grandfather's, Oliver VOL
COTS. He was one of the signers Of the
Declaration Of Independence. II was
given 10 am BY the immortal Washing
ton. I; is over one hundred years OLD. l;
was given TO me by your grandfather
give it TO you, keep IL as a relic and a
present from your poor old father who
il now ninety-siX years old.
Your affectionate father,
JOHN WOLCOTT."
This apron must not Be confounded
with the original Madam De Lafayette
apron which IS now in the possession OF
the Washington Memorial association
az Philadelphia. Il was hand embr0id-
ed and hand painted oy that lady on waite
silk Transmitted u Washington by the
hands Of her husband, the Marques up
on his second visit TO this country. That
apron was simply Master Mason's
while the one in Mr.. McCan's possession
shows by the combinations that il is a
royal Arch apron of the period when she
Royal Arch degree was a part OF the
lodge system
Those who are Interested in curios
may have an opportunity of seeing the
apron that was worn by the Father Of
this country by calling at the Office OF
the Kansas Free Mason above go East
