More than a century and quarter
has passed since the dramatic scene of
July 8, 1775, was enacted beneath the
historic elm in ancient Newetowne. but
the tree, alive, but showing the decrep'
itude of age. still exists.
The Washington elm" is aptly
framed in historic environments. On
one side of it is the elegant Shepard
Memorial church. completed in 1872,
which is the religious home of one of
Camoridge's earliest denominational
societies (CongregationalisD, among
whose modern distinguished members
were the late Hon. Charles Theodore
Russell dts senior deacon) and fam
lily, including his son, the late Gov.
William E. Russell. On its other flank
is Cambridge Common, with its elabor-
ate soldiers monument, erected to
honor the memory of 45SS Cambridge
men who served and the 93S who per-
ished in the civil war.
neat circular iron fence protects
the elm from vandal hands, and at
tached to the fence is a granite tablet
bearing this inscription, written by the
poet Longfellow:
Beneath this tree Washington first
took command of the American army,
July 8, 1775."
Although Washington, on taking
command of the army, found his du-
ties manifold. intricate, appalling and
overwhelming, he was strengthened
and encouraged then and thereafter
by the loyal. efficient support of the
civil and military leaders of New Eng
land.
This in Massachusetts alone was
tower of strength, for, besides Benja-
min Lincoln of bingham. the first sec
retary of the war department, and
Henry Knox of Boston, the founder
and chief of the artillery service of the
Continental army, the successor of
Gen. Lincoln as secretary of war and
founder of the celebrated Society of
the Cincinnati, he had the moral and
practical support of four great civil
Bay State leaders-Samuel Adams of
the sturdy old Puritan stock of Bos-
ton: John Hancock oil Boston, presi-
dent of the Continental Congress of
1875, first signer of the Declaration of
independence and afterward governor
of the commonwealth; John Adams of
Quincy, second president OF the United
States and one of the most active
members of the Congress of 1776, and

conditions of the wants OF the country
and of the army. The necessity of APP
pointing a commander-in.chief and the
qualities requisite in that high Office
were dwelt upon, and then the speaker
concluded by putting in nomination
George Washington of Virginia.
"As soon as his name was men
toned, Washington rose and withdrew
from the hall. For moment he was
overpowered with sense of the re-
sponsiblity which was about to be put
upon him, and to his friend Patrick
Henry he said, with tears in his eyes:
I fear that this day will mark the
downfall of my reputation On the
18th of June the nomination was unan-
imously confirmed by Congress, and
the man who had saved the wreck of
Braddocks army was called to build
nation"
With great dignity he accepted the
appointment, refused all compensa-
tions beyond his actual expenses, set
out with an escort by way OF New
York, and reached Cambridge fifteen
AIays after the battle of Bunker Hill.
When Washington arrived in Cam
bridge one of the first things that occu-
pied his attention was the selection of
a building suitable for his headquar-
ters. After inspecting several of the
most commodious and available ones
in that immediate vicinity, his choice
fell upon a large, square mansion on
the Watertown road built in 1883 by
Col. John Vassell. an unswcrving 10y
aIist-a Tory" as his class was op-
probriously termed-who had just fed
to England. Here, in the future home
of LCngfellow, the illustricus soldier
established his headquarters, and con-
tinued it as his military home for the
ensuing eight months, during the re-
mainder of the siege of Boston. Wash

An entertainment of much interest

was the exhibition of ten old maps of

They are the property Cf Mr.. Sidney
Clcmenson of Boston, who secured
them while travelling in Australia from

Miss Bacon.
Eight of them were made by Pow

royal governor to the colonies of Mas

olina in succession. He returned to
England in 17Gl and obtained a seat
in Parliament The last part of his
life was devoted to antiquarian stud
les. These maps were published in
London in 1894.
The other two maps were published
in Paris in 1906. One of the English
maps gives the thirteen original
states; one of the French maps shows
seventeen stars and seventeen states.
None of the English maps show Wash
ington or st. Louis. The French map
does. There is no Chicago on either
of the maps. Cahokia and kaskaskia
are on all of the maps One of the old
maps gives the United States and
bordering Spanish possessions. gives

A NEW DEChLCGUE.
Ten New Commandments That Are
Plain and Practical.

A new ten commandments, which
the people of Reggie in northern Italy
have lately adopted is of wide inter
est. This new decalogue is not pri-
marily for grownups, but for the chill
dren of the town. and 1t is expected
that the little folks will, in their
schools. learn the ten rules by heart.
Love thy schoolmates. for they viii!
be thy co-workers for life.
Love knowledge, the bread of intel
lect. Cherish the same gratitude to-
ward thy teachers as toward thy tath-
er and mother.
Make every day thou livest the oc-
cason for some good and beneficial
deed; always SOW the seeds of kind
ness.
Honor good men and true women,
esteem all men as equals, bend thy
knee to no one.
Do not bear hatred to anybody;
don't insult people. The word revenge
shall not be in thy vocabulary, but
stand up for thy rights and resist OPP
preston.
Don't be a coward; stand by the
weak and respect and love Justice.
Remember that all goods of this
world are the products of labor. Who
ever takes the good things of this
world without giving their equivalent
in labor robs the diligent of their just
dues.
Exercise thy mind; observe and
think and try to ascertain the truth
of all things. Believe in nothing mys-
terious, in nothing unreasonable; use
no deception either toward thyself or
others.
Do not assume that to be patriotic
one must hate other nations or glory
in war War is relic of barbarism.
Let it be thy purpose in life to
hasten the day when all men, as free
citizens of free state, shall live in
peace and happiness, in true brother
hood.

and the excitement was intense.
Up to this time the American forces
were practically without a head, but
now it was instinctively felt that a
brilliant and trusted leader had arisen,
who was to be their civil and political

the quiet entrance of this noted Nlr-

event of great local importance. but
one of the most momentous and far
