"RELICs. This city has always been
noted for relics and ghosts OF by-gone
days. When the old Alexandria Mu-
scum as in operation a plumber OF genu-
inc curiosities were exhibited, most of
them suggestive of colonial days or oil
Washington and Lafayette. Apart
from these the genuineuess OF which
none disputed. the Ratchet with which
Washington cut bis fathers cherry tree
was well-kDown relic, and later the
club with which Cain killed Abel was
an object of interest. Since the de-
struction OF the old Market House and
with it the MUSEUM, the Braddock
House seems to be the depository OF
curiosities, some of which are, II genu'
inc, interesting to contemplate, and
they are said to cast visitors into solil-
oquies akin to those experienced by
Mark Twain when be stood at the grave
of Adam. II is said that visitors are
taken to a cellar and shown hooks.
braces and other Instruments OF torture
which they are told were used 10 olden
times 10 Alexandria on obdurste slaves.
The stranger, knowing no better, leaves
with impressions similar to those pro-
duced in the Tower of London or in q
Venetian museum after one has inspect
ed the cruel contrivspces OF medieval
DAYS. That the "curiosities" in the
shape OF "nigger" hooks need close
examination must be apparent to all
Alexandrians.
