story Of the man who could never

In 1853 Lucy Grymes, the Lowland

one OF Washington's most serious
love affairs was with Miss Mary Cary.
and there is no doubt that she was in

vented the marriage by handing out
the Alaskan negative.
Miss Cary afterwards married a
young swell, Edward Amber. who
died young, and his pretty widow was
often guest at Mount Vernon after
Washington's marriage. The Cary
romance extended over several years,
but in the meantime there were
others. 1t Is consoling to know that
Washington was human enough to oc-
casonally do something amateurish,

During the course Of his remarks

that il Andrew Miller was elected
