Saw Washington's Face.

MI. Lane was a witness Of the great
debates in the Senate and House previous
to the war and the heated reconstruction
discussions that followed 1t, while at the
same time he was an active participant
in that industrial development of WASH
ington that resulted after the war.
Born In Richmond, Va, December II,
1924, Of an old New England lineage.
Mr.. Lane came to Washington with his
parents when six years old. He attended
the public schools in the city at that
time, and when he was ten years old
the most suspicious event in his life hap
pened. It was at the time when the body
of George Washington was to be removed
from its old tomb in Mount Vernon to
the new vault where it now rests. The
event was an important one In Washing
ton, and notable persons attended the
exercises that marked 1t. Lane was
obliged to run away from school. and
when the coffin was taken from the grave
he was present. The top Of the coffin
was lifted SO that the face was dis
closed, and one Of the undertakers held
Lane up In his arms to enable him to
look upon the face of the first Presi-
dent. Mr.. Lane carried this recollection
with him always. so deep an impression
did the scene make upon his mind.
Although Of New England ancestry, Mr..
Lane was deeply in sympathy with the
southern cause during the civil war. He
was drafted into the Union army, but
on account of his principles he purchased

large number of Republicans, arrived.
DR.. w. l.. West, a member of the State
Republican committee, presided, and
introduced the speakers. The stage
was given up entirely to the speak

Hon. Forrest Goodwin of Skowhegan,

played on the Belfast nine and won

Mr.. Haines, when introduced, re-

to wait several minutes before he
could speak. 1t was an ovation such
as no speaker has been accorded in

so l hunted up Mr., Gallup, this morn

he faxed the canvass story for the
Waterville Sentinel; that so far as
