NELLIE CUSnS's WEDDING.
Washington Delighted The Bride
by Appearing in His Old
Blue-And-Duff
Uniform.

Nellie Gus l., occupied no small
share of Washington S affectionate
thought after his return to Mount
Vernon. He had charged the
young girl kindly not to fall in love
with sany invader" of her heart
until she had a competent know
ledge of his character, especially
whether he was a man of sense,
'for be assured a sensible woman
can never be happy with a fool;
what his walk of life, the extent of
his fortune aud, above all, the hon
esty Of his affections. Washington S
own wish seems to have been that
Nellie Custis would marry his ia
vorite young nephew, Lawrence
Lewis, and among the last of the
festivities which Washington pre-
sided over at Mount Vernon was
the wedding of the couple in Febru-
ary, 1899. Nellie wanted him to APP
pear in all the magnificence of the
new uniform, with gold lace and
white plumes, which the War De-
partment had just designed for him
as a General. The old chieftain
was unwilling to have himself be-
decked in the trappings of his latest
military rank. But when he came
into the presence of the bridal par
ty Nellie had to throw her arms
around his neck, for there he was
in the good old blue and buff OF the
Continental Army, with a black
ribbon cockade and a cooked hat

Greatest of Steamships.

For the first time since the launch
ing of the Great Eastern, more than
forty years ago, a vessel of approx
imately the same great size is max
ing trial trip across the Atlantic.
The dimensions of the new liner,
the Oceanic, which sailed from Eng
land last week, surpass those OF
the Great Eastern. In length it is
7O4 feet over all, it is 68 feet of
beam and it's depth is 49 feet 6
inches. When loaded to it's full ca
pacity it will draw thirty-two feet
and six inches and displace 2S, 500
tons. 1t is thus decidedly larger
than the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse,
both in length and in displacement,
and larger even than the Deutsch-
land, now building, which is to have
a displacement of $4,000 tons.
1t is as the first ship exceedieg
the dimensions of the Great Eastern,
however, that the Oceanic will be
remembered. The Great Eastern
was a disastrous experiment as a
money-making carrier of travel
passengers and commerce. More
than $4,000,000 was expended in
completing the vessel, which was
engaged for three years in unprofit-
able service in the Atlantic trade
and then, after laying the Atlantic
cable, was withdrawn from service.
Such has been the change wrought
in commercial conditions and so
feshible have the leading steamship
companies found vessels of great
size that now a ship even larger
than the Great Eastern is launched
with an assured prospect of success.
The Oceanic, with its capacity for
$4,000 horse power, its 3,7O0 tons
coal capacity, its accommodations
for 2,100 souls-passengers and
crew-and its expected speed of 20
knots, is a substantial evidence
that one ship-building project which
seemed an impracticable dream in
the early '70s has become a reality.
At present, indeed, the only
question seems to be whether the
new record for size established by
the Oceanic is not likely soon to be
surpassed by the construction of
even greater leviathans of the sea.

BOY WITH A FUTURE.
Which Professionals Had Re-
fused to Perform.

Commodore George w. Morton's fa-
nous Red Lion cottage at Hough's
Neck, Mass. has for some time been
considered historic landmark by the
inhabitants of that vicinity. They have
regarded it with reverential awe, but
recent windstorm treated it with con-
tempt.
The cottage was so badly damaged
as to be rendered almost uninhabit-
able, and its severe battering brought
woe to the heart of many loyal Quin-
cyite.
Mr.. Morton took gloomy view.of the
remains after the storm, and concluded
that he would not attempt TO rebuild
if he had to occupy the same location.

who lived in Henderson county,
against any of them. He was born
in Northampton county, N. c., No
vember, 1899; was married to Mary
jenkins in 1920. By this marriage
he had seven children, and by his
second marriage four children. He
moved from North Carolina to west
Tennessee in 1929 and died six
miles west of Lexington in 1857 He
was seven feet six inches high, and
in 1845 weighed over 1000 pounds.
In 1889 his co&s was buttoned around
three men, each weighing over 300
pounds, and they walked around the
public square at Lexington, Tenn.
In 1850 it required 131 yards of
cloth one yard wide to make him
coat. His coffin was eight feet long,
35 inches deep, 32 inches across the
breast, 18 inches across the head and
IA inches across the feet. 1t took
"a yards of black velvet to cover it.
His hat measured 29 inches around
the crown and is now in possession of
the State Historical society at Nash

He wanted to move the cottage higher
up the hill. at the foot of which it had
stood.
A number of skillful building movers
were called into consultation, but
after looking over the ground they
shook their heads and pronounced the
job impracticable. Mr.. Morton had al
most given up his idea when Charlie
Cavanagh, a boy scarcely out of his
teens, offered to perform the feat.
The owner of the cottage was rather
skeptical, and frankly said so, but the
boy was allowed to go ahead and show
what be could do.
The job was a pretty difficult one.
