Young George pretended to be great
~ touched by these friendly offers and
was elated over the admiration be-
slowed upon him, 80 he made a speech
telling how his heart had bled because
OF the cruelty he was forced TO deal
out TO them, and If they would be good
In the future he would be their friend
The Indians promised never to kill an
other Virginian. and then George told
thsm how he loved them and Invited
them to call at his home and be his
guests. But you can imagine the sur
prise Of George when he returned home
and found several hundred Indians who
had taken a short cut. across the coun-
try. calrped In front of his house ready
TO grasp his hand and partake of his
bounty 1t Is said George swore for
the first time in his life, for he had to
give every Indian a colored blanket be-
fore the Indians concluded to retire and
bid their great friend goodbye
Washington danced. and played
cards, and for stakes at that.
and with ladies, too, but then.
that was the rule at that time.
COMMANDER OF THE ARMY.
Washington was willing candidate
for the appointment as commander-in-
chief Of the continental army, and his
friends worked hard TO win for him the
prize, yet George wrote to his wife who
objected to his absence from home, and
said: II assure you, dear Patsy, | did
not want 1t, had done all in my power
TO avoid II, and you must therefore con-
sent to long absence George always
addressed his wife as Patsy" a nick
name given TO her because she remind
Cd him Of an lrlshman.
WASHINGTON WAS HUMOROUS.
Washington was even humorous at
times. While he was President the
King of Spain wished to send the head
of the United States a present, and
learning that the President was farm
er, the king concluded to send his great
and good friend Washington, a farm
animal and the best farm animals In
Spain are dOnkeys, you may imagine
the Presidents surprise when a fine
Jack ass was led TO his door as pres
ent from the King of Spain At first
Washington showed some displeasure
and when the overseer was about to
lead the animal away, he said: Mr.
President. what shall we name him,
Immediately Washington's face became
a wreath of smiles, and said, name
him, name him, why, name him The
King OF Spain"
Two years later Washington invited
the whole diplomatic corps TO visit Mt.
Vernon, he was specially anxious about
the Spanish minister's presence. While
at Mt. Vernon they inspected the Presi-
dents live stock. Thoroughbred after
thoroughbred were brought out for in
spection, and were pronounced perfect,
and just as the party was about TO re-
turn TO the mansion, Washington |
turned towards them and said. "Ah, |

out In laundering tones TO the oyerseer. |
