and his feet beat time for the honored
refrain against the oak panels of the

All unmindful of the fact that a

opportunity to lay his life upon the
altar Of his country, the recruiting Of.

for the starsh and shtripsh; shed hish

no lie, for Shorge Washington finally
exhausted his patience and left.
AS he steered somewhat uncertain

planned that it was an awful state OF

of his country's father by offering. his
life to the service Of the American
