Until the early part of the last
century Milford, Conn, had house
in which Washington was said to
have spent a night. 1t was in 1889,
when Washington made tour of
New England. Tradition says that
there were certain things about his
stay at the Milford tavern which he
did not enjoy. The supper set be-
fore him consisted of boiled meat
and potatoes. He was not pleased
with the meal and asked for a bowl
of bread and milk. The landlord
brought the new order and broken
pewter spoon with which to eat it.
ECHave you no better spoons than
this?" asked General Washington.
'Tt's the best I have in the house,
sir" replied the host.
"Send me the servant" said his
excellency. "Here's 2 shillings. Go
to the minister's and borrow a sill
yer spoon"
Tradition does not add whether
he got the spoon or not. - Ex-
