Quaint Old Wine Glass.

Congressman Frank C. Weber is
the proud possessor of a cut glass
wine glass from which on more than
one occasion, so tradition says, Gen.
George Washington refreshed himself
in the dsys when he used to stop on
his way from Mount Vernon to the
North at the home Of the late Michael
Warner, on the old Washington road.
The wine glass is an old fashioned
one of comfortable size and weight,
and is very much unlike anything in
use nowadays. Well authenticated
tradition has it that Gen. Washington
was frequently guest at the home of
Michael Warner, who was a well
known man in this section of the
country and was acquainted with
many prominent men of those days,
1t is known that Gen. Washington
stopped on more than one occasion
at the Warncru0use, as he did at the
old Carroll mansion, now in Carol
Park, and partook of meals. The
