One side of that street has been built

On the spot where Lincoln stood a
black locust tree has grown, and on
the trunk of this tree has been nailed
a rude signboard. on which that in
teresting\ fact is inscribed. In the pic
ture a man, one of the dwellers in the
fort street, is seated and leans against
the tree. Above him may be seen the
sign board.
The proposition that this fort site
preserved frequently has been broach-
ed, and a number of patriotic organi-
cations have passed fitting resolutions.
but the matter always has ended in
thin air.
Early's dash in Washington was one
of the daring enterprises of the great
war. The north was waiting impa-
tiently for Grant to take Richmond.
The capture of Washington would
have meant increased foreign compli-
cations for the United States. 1t might
have meant recognition of the Con-
federate states by the European pow
ers. It would have been sentimental
blow to the Union and would have
meant irrepnrable loss. Early after
the campaign said. General Lee did
not expect me to be able to enter
Washington. His order were merely
to threaten the city, and when ! sug-
gested to him the idea of capturing it
he said II would be impossible Early
crossed the Potomac river at Shep-
herdstown and on the 9th of July
fought the battle of the Monocacy, de-
featins the army of Gen. Lew Wal
lace. On the afternoon of July 10
Early's army was at Rockville, Is
miles west by north of Washington.
In this place he threatened both
Washington and Baltimore. There was
panic in both cities. The First and
Second divisions of the Sixth army
corps had been ordered up from the
James river. A part of the Nineteenth
corps returning from New Orleans to
Join Grants army arrived at Fort
Monroe and were ordered on to Wash
ington without leaving their trans
ports. The Twenty-fifth New York
cavalry was the first of the troops of
Grant to reach Washington, arriving
at Fort Stevens at midnight July 10.
In the meantime every man that could
be utilized for the defense of the cap
iatl had been pressed into service. The
hospitals in and around Washington
were drawn on for convalescents, the
ouartermaster's department for en-
ployees, the executive departments for
volunteers. the National Guard of
Ohio. the District of Columbia militia,
the Veteran Reserves and the few
unassigned regular .detachments of in
fantry and cavalry. sailors, the Wash
ington firemen and police and citi-
zens.
Early marched from Rockville at
dawn, July IL, and came upon Fort
stevens in the afternoon. Line of
battle was formed. skirmishers thrown
out and the fighting began. Early's
men gained ground. but late in the
day the Eleventh corps arrived On
the next morning. hopeless of success
in the face of such superb umbers,
Early retraced his steps.
