him to this decision r as potent

In this country. Sir Thomas Upton.
1t is said, offered to buy the house for
this purpose. and the committee which
has charge Of the property has de-
clined to consider the offer. We are
glad that it did.
Sulgrave manor was not the home
Of George Washington. He never liv-
ed in the house, M never saw it.
Its connection with the history Of
America is due to the fact that it was
the home. not Of George Washington,
but Of his ancestors, who were not
Americans. but English people, sturdy,
respected. substantial folk, who serv-
ed their day and generation. and were
gathered to their fathers without
knowing anything Of the struggle
which was to &c on across the water,
in which their future kinsman was
to take a leading part In the creation
Of a new nation.
Sulgrave manor, where it is. is an
object Of interest. Transplanted to
America it would be a pile Of Junk.
Where ii is. it has its appropriate set
ting. It is surrounded by English
fields and meadows. and it must be
an interesting place to those who are
interested in digging into the roots of
things, for it links the history of the
great American leader with hat of
his kin across the seas. and the visitor
to it must be impressed by the thought
n a the Washington whom We revere
came of a long line of other Wash
ingtons who, while not specially con-
%xpicuous. were worthy men and worn-
en-, performing creditable the that fell
to them. and acquitting themselves
in all things honorably. The hills and
dales, the woods and brooks. the pas
toral beauty of the English landscape
surrounding the manor are as much
parts Of the history Of Washington,
and as intimately associated with the
history of our country as is the house
in which the members Of the family
happened. to lire. These cannot be
transplanted. Then let the house re.
main where it is, to form it's appro-
pirate part Of the picture. and to be
enjoyed by those who are privileged
to visit it. To remove it would be
