way to recovery, by purchasing OF

According to tradition, Washington,
after meeting Lee, ordered oswald's
battery to unllmber and open on the
enemy; that he then galloped down
toward the advancing enemy, and fred
his holsters at them, wheeled his horse
about, rode back and formed the re-
treating hosts into line of battle to
meet the foe. Without doubt the
father Of his country was greatly pro-
voked at Lee, and the evidence at Lees
trial shows that "hot and angry"
words passed between them. But 1t is
still matter Of doubt whether Gen.
Washington swore.
Such terms and colloqulalisms as
"Egad," "By gad" and "Zounds," a
genteel sort Of profanity, were in COM
mon use in those days, but Washing
ton has never been accused of using
them. In the midst Of the excitement
and confusion attending a battle, and
the rallying Of routed hosts under the
heavy fire Of a victorious enemy, 1t Is

Even the grave Washington Joined
in the laugh that followed this ex-
PLANTATION. But Lee eventully took the
oath with the others, and subscribed
his name to one Of the blanks now on
file in the archives at Washington.
When the British under Clinton sud
denly evacuated Philadelphia In June,
177S, and began their retreat across
New Jersey, Washington, with his
whole army, pushed on as rapidly as
possible to intercept them before they
reached New York. Late on headed
of the British, went into camp lear
the enemy on the plains OF Monmouth.
Lee was next to Washington In COM
mand, and there can be no doubt at
this time that envy and hatred were
strong factors In the breast Of the su-
bordinate. Lees instructions were to
advance early and attack the enemy
as soon as they began to move, unless
there was some powerful reason for

slight discretionary power given him
furnished the pretext for his conduct

Lee advised against the attack, and
showed very faint heart throughout
the fight. When the British began to
move he mado a feeble attack, which
was followed up by half q dozen blum
ders In rapid succession, He held La
fayette In check until It was too late
for him to cut off some Of tho British
army, and weakened Wayne's forces
by withdrawing from him some Of his
best soldiers, and finally ordered>a gen
eral retreat all along the line. Along a
narrow pass, with morass on either
side, the Americans fed on that hot

warm that many OF the soldiers per-
ished from sunstroke. Washington,
who was bringing up the main army
to attack the British In such way as
to cut off their retreat TO New York,
after the cannonading early in the
morning was astonlshed and perplexed
to hear no more firing. Anon the
shouts OF the victorious Britons and
the occasional musket shot fell on his
ears, and, with n feeling Of dlstrust, he
galloped forward, accompanied by his
entire staff. They met the head of the
retreating army under Gen, Lee, Just
at this point, according to tradition,
Washington did his "cussing." His
tory records the first words uttered by
Washington as:

From the traditions Of Alexandria,
and from other sources, have tried to
make up in my minds eye a picture Of
George Washington as he really was.
He was exceedingly tall, and, when
young, quite slender He had enor-
nous hands and feet His boots were
No, 13, and his ordinary walking shoes
No. 12 He was man Of muscle.
During his service in the army he
weighed 200 pounds, and was so strong
that he could lift his tent with one
hand, although It usually required the
strength Of two men to place It on the
camp wagon. mean, Of course, when
It was folded up and wrapped around
the poles, Washington could hold
musket with one hand and fire II. He
was a good shot and good swords
man. The pictures Of the father of his
country make one think that Wash
ington was a brunette. His face is
dark and somber. The truth is, he had
a skin like an Irish baby, and his hair
was almost red. He had broad chest
but not a full one.
His voice was not strong, and during
his last days he had hacking cough.
His eyes we're cold gray, and 1t is said
that he seldom smiled, although there
is reason to believe that he had con-
siderable humor about him. His nose
was prominent. He was particular as
to his appearance and fastidious in
dress. He wore plain clothes and al
ways kept himself well shaven, acting
as his own barber.

and If ever profanity was excusable II

popularity, schemed to defeat his
army. 1t is quite certain that he hes
itated when the oath of allegiance, re-
qulred by the continental congress,

Washington was himself administering
the oath to Lee Greene, Stirling and
others, the officers placing their ha ads

to repeat the prescribed oath, Lee sud

Through his letters now owned by
the government one may see here and
there correspondence which shows
that he was very hard up at times. In
1885 he wrote that he could get no
wheat on credit, and that he had no
cash to pay for 1t. Three years later he
urges a man to pay the $1,000 which he
owes him, and says he has put off the
sheriff three times already, and that he
needs this money to pay his taxes. He
was not afraid to dun his debtors, and
he is said to have been one Of the
shrewdest dealers, among the planters
of his time. He was Away preaching
economy to his servants, but on the
whole was somewhat lenlent, as, for
instance, he employed one man, car
penter, making a contract with him for
a year and providing therein he was to
have four days in which he might get
drunk about Christmas. Washington
was economical, but not stingy. He
could not endure waste Of any klnd,and
he went about over his estate doing his
best to stop the leaks. In one Of his
letters home he urges that the greatest
economy be used In feeding the hay at
the mansion house.
