on the Rappahannock farm, or wheth-
er his body was taken back to the old
Washington family burying ground on
the lower Potomac is not known. He
bequeathed the old home place on the
Potomac to his eldest son, Augustine.
To his son Lawrence he left the farm
on the Potomac between Hunting
creek and Dogue run, which Lawrence
subsequently named Mount Vernon.
To George, when he should come of
age, he bequeathed the farm on the
Rappahannock.
This house was occupied by Mrs.
Washington until it burned after
George had changed his place of living
to his half-brother's home in Mount
Vernon. After the fire Mrs. Washing
ton removed to small frame cottage
in Fredericksburg where she lived
many years, and where she died. 1t
was In this house that Washington
took his last leave of his mother, four
months before her death. The house
still stands at the corner of Charles
and Lewis Streets. 1t is owned by
the Society for the Preservation of
Virginia Antiquities, and is furnished
much as it was when Mrs. Washing
ton lived there. The room in which
she died and her bed are preserved in
tact.

Band Concert.

The concert given by the La Junta
Band in Elks' Hall last Tuesday
evening was not as well attended as
the merit OF the entertainment pro.
vided by the band deserved. The au-
dience was an appreciative one. how
ever. and the boys were pleased with
the reception accorded their efforts.
although slightly disappointed with
the size OF the receipts. Since the
concert, however. they received two
substantial checks. one for $50 and
another for $25, as additional evi-
dence Of appreciation. and now feel
more inclined to officiate at band
concerts during the coming summer

attention to the list Of persons re-

office. These lists very often con-
tain the names OF nonresident lana

names Of those who are renters ana
whose names, therefore, do not ap-
