There is always something happening

CENTENARY or THE
DEATH OF WASHINGTON.
Thackeays Estimate the Character Of the First President the
United States

what pretexts of delay were urged,
what piteous excuses were put forward
that this fleet arrived too late, that re-
giment mistook its orders, that these
cannon balls would not fit those guns,
and SO to the end of the chapter! Here
was general who beat us with no
shot at all at times, and no powder
and no money; and he never thought
of a convention; the English colonists
had no settled peace. Then the French
revolution was disturbing the world,
and at Washington's death. half cen
fury after his signal gun broke the
primeval silence of the American Wild
erness, Europe was on the verge of the
Napoleonic wars, which rounded out
six decades of the mightiest social and
martial struggles known in history.
Thackeray wrote "The Virginians"
after his visit to America in 1852. The
passing away of Wellington just about
that time, with the full glory of his
victories over Napoleon clinging to
him, drew to the hero of Waterloo the
homage of nations. Just then, too,
the mighty genius of the imam of des-
tiny" furnished a theme for world
wide study and wrung admiration from
those who could not ignore the many
dark phases in the career of the adj
ventrous Corsican Therefore, for
European cynic with British blood in
his veins to mount the forum and say,
speaking with truth, that Washington
brought out of these epoch making
struggles of 1884 to 1915 the prize of
the brightest fame" was praise indeed.
The author works out the details of
Wash!ngton's career in the course of the
story and leaves it to two of his charac-
tiers, George Warrington" an able, high
minded Tory, and his brother Harry" a
patriot close to Washington, to bear him
patriot close to Washington, to bear him
out in the tribute which stands at the por-
tail of the structure. Speaking of Wash
ington when at the zenith, Warrington
the Tory says:

ty, what a surprising persstency against
fortune. Washington before the enemy

the car. On the seat opposite me sat

Here, indeed, is a greater man than Wolfe.
To endure is greater than to dare: to tire
out hostile fortune, to be daunted by no
difficulty, to keep heart when all have
lost it, TO go through intrigue spotless, to

gained-who can say this is not greatness
or show the other EnglishGnan who has
achieved so Ynuch?"
