Where
Washington
Spent His
Forty-fourth
Birthday.

The stress of revolutionary days de-
veloped strong characters, but never
one more versatile and attractive than
that of Henry Knox, who served as
major general in the continental army;
was WashingtoISs chief of artillery, the
Hrst secretary of war under the consti-
.ution, and the founder Of the Society
Of the Cincinnati.
The qualities of mind and heart in
&nox were such that he greatly en-
aeared himself to Washington, so that
the latter wrote, only few weeks
orior to his death: Il can with truth
say that there is no man in the United
States with whom have been in hab-
its of greater intimacy, no one whom
{ have loved more sincerely, nor any
for whom have had greater friend
