he thought they were unnecessarily
alarming themselves, as he did not
think the British were serious In their
intentions Of coming to Washington.
Fortunately Mr.. Pleasonton was OF a
different opinion, and observed that it
was the part of prudence to take meas
ures TO preserve these valuable papers
of the revolutionary government. Had
Mr.. Pleasonton delayed but a few
days, had he followed the advice of
the secretary of war, an irreparable
loss would have been sustained. For
the papers which MIR. Pleasonton had
placed IN the coarse linen bags com
prised the secret journals OF congress,
then not published; the correspondence
of General Washington, his commits
sion, resigned at the close of the war;
the correspondence OF General Greene
and other officers of the Revolution, as
well as laws, treaties and correspond
ence OF the departm mt Of state from
the adoption of the constitution down
to that time.
Mr. Pleasonton had the bags carted
70 grist mill, which he selected as a
suitable deposit y. The mill, which
was unoccupied, belonged to Edgar
Patterson and was situated on the
Virginia side Of the Potomac, beyond
the Chain bridge, two miles above
Georgetown
The last load had left, and MI
Pieasonton was just quitting the va
can't rooms when. glancing back sud
denly to see whether anything had
been left behind. to his CONSERVATION
he saw the Declaration Of Independ-
ence, which had been overlooked,
hanging upon the wall He hastily
cut II out OF the frame and carried Il
away with the other papers.
He then began to be uneasy about
the place he bad chosen, for II the
British took Washington, which he
firmly believed they would do, and
detach force for the pur-
pose OF destroying a foundry for the
making Of cannon and shot in the
neighborhood and, Of course, would
consider a grist mill too valuable a
thing to be left standing IN a country
they, meant TO subdue. Mr. Pleasbn-
ton therefore visited some OF the Viz
g1nia farmhouses, whose owners were
only too willing to loan him wagons
In which to convey the documents TO
Leesburg, a distance OF thirty-flve
miles. There they were deposited In
an empty house, the keys Of which
were given to Rev. Mr.. Littlejohn. who
was one OF the collectors Of internal
revenue.
Worn ont with his labors. Mr. Pleas
onton states IN & letter. he retired ear
y TO bed that night and slept soundly.
Next morning he was informed by the
people OF the little tavern where he
had stayed that evening that they had
