Living Relatives Of Washington.

Many kindred of George Washing

Mitchell in the Technical World Mag

John Washington of Brighton par
ish, Northamptonshire, England came
to Virginia in 1867 and bought a farm
on the Potomac river between Bridge
creek and Pope's creek, in what was
then Northumberland county. but
which long. long ago, became West
farm from Col Pope, a great landhold-
er in the early colonial era, and whose
daughter, Anne Pope, became the wife
of the immigrant John Washington.
These were the great grand parents Of
George Washington the Great.
John Washington thru his marriage
to Anne Pope, obtained lands outside
Of the farm purchased by him. The or
iginal farm is owned by. John E. Will
son, who married Miss Betty Washing
ton, grand daughter of William Angus
tine Washington, nephew of George
Washington. MIR. and Mrs. Wilson are
advanced in years. A score of more of
Washingtons live on their ancestral
lands and within rifle shot of the spot
where George Washington was born.
Some OF these people are prosperous
farmers and professional men; others
are not prosperous. They are all plain
and simple folk who have the good will
and respect of their neighbors. A pc

Steamboat Rock, Jan. 1.-THE Alice
Dale Concert Company, which APP
peared here last night, was probably
the best number that ever appeared
in our little city. Alice Dale held the
audience spellbound with her recita-s
tons, and Marguerite Waugh, the VIC.
linist, rendered some selections that
have never been surpassed here. The
soprano was Miss Viva Winebrenners
cousin of the famous Madame Nor
dica, and more than pleased her aus
dience. Miss Agnes Irna Beach, the
whistler, rendered several exceptionally
good whistling solos, and was encored
several times.
The members of the company, with
the exception of Alice Dale, are Indf-
ana girls, Mrs. Dale being from Tens
