Washington was not churllsh, but he
had that preference for being unob-

longing in man whose life is spent In
public. He quilted the Macomb house
on the morning Of Aug. 80, 1890. The
servants were instructed to steal away
at dawn, to have the carriages and lug
gage over the ferry at Paulus Hook by
sunrise. By candlelight, Mrs. Wash
ington, the children and the secretaries
assembled in the morning room.
The president entered, pleased with
his stratagem. He was enjoying in
prospect his concealed departure. Inn
mediately under the window suddenly
struck up on the still morning air the
blaring, vigorous notes Of an artillery
band. From the highways and byways
scurrying people appeared. To witness
his first step outside the door a thou
