After the morning road work Jerry is rubbed out and
lays up until o'clock when he starts the indoor work. He

courts Court Commissioner T. q
Taylor has before him the accounts
Of the administration or Ambrose Vass
who carried on business in this city
in an extensive way during the las;
year of Mashington's administration.
Mr.. Nass built as a warehouse the
long building on Washington street
just north OF King. occupied as Har-
rington's livery stable. He was an ex-
tensiye shipper and some OF his ships
were captured by the French cruisers
and hence his estate has u claim under
the French spoilation bill. This resur-
rects his business after a sleep of over
seyenty-five years.
Other Alexandria merchants have also
similar claims and the examination into
their business affairs shows how differ
entity business was conducted in the
early days than IL is now.
