when some security was necessary
against the savages. The living rooms
of that old fort became the cellar OF
the mansion reared over them. and in
these compartments were stored dust
clad bottles, bullying casks and those
luscious old hams and the like for
which Virginia was long famous. The
old fort still forms the plaza upon
which the main hallway leads; and IT
was there in Washington's day that
the young people gathered in the sum-
mer evenings to chat and to watch
the moon rise over the river. while
their elders met to discuss the Ques-
tons of the day and to watch the
trading craft that came from over the
sea to barter the silks and satins and
riches of the east in trade for the
famous OronOko.
In the blue and white room OF the
Carlyle house-to the left Of the main
hallway-WashingtO was a sharer
in the military councils of preparation
for the Braddock campaign. and day
after day Braddock's regard for him
rose. In April of 1855 Gen. Brad
dock called together in Alexandria the
governors of Massachusetts,. New
York. Maryland. Pennsylvania and
Virginia, and together these distin.
guished executives discussed the plans
of the forthcoming expedition in this
little room.
Across the broad main hallway Is
the great drawing room. which in
Washington's day was in gold and
white, and there it is said the youth
full Washington took an active part in
rout and ball and led some fair Vir
gilman through the stately steps Of the
minuet. The broad hallway is moi
without its sentimental interest. be
cause local tradition asserts that il
was at the foot of the solid mahogany
staircase that Washington stood
awaiting the coming of the fair Sallit
Fairfax on the occasion Of ball. ant
that the ballroom was where he pro
posed to the same Sallie and was re
jected.
It is believed that some day tina
portion of the deserted hotel which
now stands between the Carlyle hous'
and the street may be removed 81
that the house may stand once NOR

that We were to do all the work with
our own hands. and for that reason
the raised bed method Of planting was
chosen In the fiat method usually a
pillow is employed at least for the pur
pose OF breaking the ground. and
sometimes in making burrows in which
to set the bulbs.
