THE VISIT OF LAFAYETTE.
Cor The Oispatch.1


There Is tradition commonly accepted
as fact among Masons Of this community.
that 20 Lafayette was extended q
Masonic ovation by. the Olive Branch
Lodge, in Leesburg. Loudoun county We
have no record of any such interesting
event though Lafayette did visit the
town on the occasion OF his visit to the
United States IN 1924 Miss Amanda Os-
burn, probably the Oldest person IN
Loudoun county, now IN her sSrd year,
can give a singularly distinct account CT
the details Of the event. The town owes
this visit from Lafayette TO the fact
that he was on his way to Oak Hill, near
Aide now the magnificent stock farm Of
the Hon. Henry Fairfax. member OF Vir-
e,inia Corpora ton Commission, but then
the home OF James Monroe. It was the
F'rencnman's purpose to renew q friend
ship contracted with the ex-President in
the Revolutionary war. in which he was
probably intimately associated with Mr..
Monroe, in the lattec's capacity of member
of the War Commission, with the rank OF
colonel. 4urtner opportunity
OF ripening this friendship had been offer
cd otter the war. In Mr.. Monrce's capacity
as minister to France. when, with Robert
Morris. he effected the Louisiana pur-
chase in 1909. The ballroom IN which
was given to Lafayette a public reception
by the people Of Leesburg. is now the
OF Mrs. Virginia Mott. widow

.'NIonroe-The East proclaims his worth;

aFayette-tiis brethren take pleasure
