MUSEUM Is GIVEN
SOME RARE BRASSES
Curios of Washington Family in
England Are Brought Here by
Mrs. A. 7. Robertson.

The National Museum has received a
set Of rubbIngs from the monumental
brasses Of the Washington family in Sui
grave and Brighton. England. collected
and presented by Mrs. a. I. Robertson,
of this city.
The fact that the history of the family
Of George Washington Is well known and
fully recorded in England Is brought to
notice by the brass memorials and in
scriptions still TO be seen In the old Eng
lish church and manor of Sulgrave and
Brighton. England. 1t was in this village
that Laurence Washington and his fam
lily lived for three generations. previous
TO their removal to Brighton.
The Washington house, originally a
monastery. is now the manor house Of
the village of Sulgrave. 1t was granted
to Laurence Washington. the mayor Of
1873. upon the dissolution OF the mon
asteries. Over the entrance is carved the
Washington coat OF arms, well known to
every American citizen.
Three Early Memorials.
The old church Of ST Mary. where the
family worshiped for years. is near
by and forms a point of considerable in
terest, containing. rs II does. three
HemOI1al- DrdSSeS on the gray stone slab
Put down in memory Of Laurence WASH
ington and his family.
These brasses consist of Laurence
Washington's effigy. a shield bearing the
Washington arms. and the following in
scription:
Here lyeth buried ye bodys Of Laurence Wash
tngton. Gent. Anne his WI. by whome be had
issue iiij sons q ii danshts; NC Laurence Dyed
yc day Is - Anne Deceased
the Vi Of October aDo Dni l56i."
1t is believed that the original design
Of the American flag came from tie
stars and stripes of the Washington
arms, and in the flag, as in the original
arms, the stars signify divine influence
guiding the bearer in the right way while
the bars denote one who sets the bar
Of conscience and religion against wick
ed temptations and evil desires. The
colors, red and white. seem to follow
slso-the red meaning military bravery
ard fortitude, the white peace and sim
cerity.
So II seems that the arms os the Father
of His Country are Incorporated in his
flag.
