The Coolest Winter.

re- DITH WHARTON, the novelist, is
Ia doing war work of all kinds in
France. and at a Paris dinner, apropos
of the coal shortage, she said:
Well let US be glad, anyhow, that a
French winter is not like a New Eng
land one. Let us comfort ourselves, as
we bend shivering over chill radiators,
with the weirdest stories of New Eng
land cold.
Il know an aged New Englander, who.
coiled round the stove in the general store
a: Croydon Four Corners. talks about the
cold in this fashion:
"'Cold? Shucks, you young feIlers
don't know what cold is. Take the
winter of 81 now. Thar We had cold
Why, in 81 it was so blamed cold that
if ye heaved a pot of billing water out
of doors it cracked like a gun. Yep, and
live Goals friz solid in four minutes
time. But the queerest thing of all was
the way yer conversation would ac-
tually freeze up before it could be
heard. Us boys used to have practical
joke we'd often play on strangers. We'd
slip up and put a couple of armfuls of
frozen shrieks and growls and cusses
in the stove unbeknownst, and as they
thawed out they'd yell and carry on
like demons. and we'd have a good
laugh at the strangers expense, they
bein' mighty skeert.

early nineteenth century there was one
bridge over this stream on f street
and another on L street. Though it was
important enough for the surveyors to
draw it on their maps. they did not pre-
serve it's name. 1t may always have
been nameiesS. as some branches are.
but perhaps it was called Davidson $
branch" after the name of the owner
of the Port Royal tract, out of which it
flowed for that is the way most of
the branches in this part of the world
have come by their names. Or it may
have carried the name of some earlier
owner of the Davidson tract.

tainly to 1895, for the records of the
Presbytery of Baltimore show that on
April 80. 1894, Rev. John Breckenridge
was licensed. and on April 80. 1875, he
received a call from the church in
Washington" There was no Presby-
terian church building in the city at
that time. but there was a Presbyterian n
congregation. Presbyterian worship
within the city probably goes back to
1891. PresbyterianS were in this region,
however in the middle of the seventeenth
century and they were numerous at the
opening of the eighteenth. 1t is certain
that among the people attracted to this
locality by the creation of federal ter
ritory and the building of d federal city
were many PresbyterianS, and if they
did not journey to the PreSbyterian n
churches in Prince Georges and Mont
gomery counties. they held services in
their homes. Home services were clear

Washington in 1894
The first regular place of meeting of
the Washington Presbyterians was in
frame shed which was the carpenter
shop of the White House while that
mansion was uHder construction. The
congregation moved from that shop, and
concerning this the Rambler has the
following reference:
when the White House was COM
pleted and the carpenter shop was 10
longer needed it was torn down and the
Presbyterians then met in a school
house al the corner of 10th and streets
which was acquired not long after by
the congregation of St Patrick's Church"

Father Matthews was at one time
president of the Catholic Seminary, and
this recalls to the Rambler that he has
preserved the names of the following
men who were connected with that In

kohllnan, superior of the seminary;
Rev. Adam Marshall. president of the
school attached to the seminary; Will

than 1903. The last time the Rambler
had occasion to look into the records of
the Presbyterian Church in the Dis

and, l believe, a novel circumstance"
Francis Baily, an Englishman of dis
tnction in letters and science, writing
in 1896. said: The truth is that not
much more than half of the city has
been cleared. The rest is in woods, and
most of the streets which are laid out
are cut through these woods and have
a much more pleasing effect now than
l think they will have when they shall
be built. for now they appear like
broad avenues in a park bounded on
each side by thick woods,
One of the Topographic features of
the site of the capital was a stream
which crossed F street few yards
east of 10th street. A map of Wash
ington in 1892 shows this stream be-
ginning in the farm tract called Port
Royal near the line of Massachusetts

flowing a little west of 18th street
across the site of Franklin Park and
thence to New York avenue, where it
turned east over the land on which
the new Masonic Temple stands. 1t
continued east along the line of II

creek.

gational Church, st. Patrick's Church
and the old Ford Theater building stand

British occupied Washington in 1914 That the
parish dates from 1894 has long been believed.
and yet there reasons to assign it grea ter
age. 1t is known that the Rev. Anthony Cahry
purchased in 1894 two lots street for church
purposes. The late Rev william +. Clarke. $.
j., is authority for the statement that the con-
Gregation originally worshiped in a house on the
corner of 10th and streets northwest.
The St. Patrick's property on F street,
which from time to time was enlarged
until it extended north on 10th street
to street and east on C street to about
half way between 10th and 9th streets,
was decided by Father Caffry to Bishop
Carroll-or was it Archbis shop Carroll at
that time?-on September 4. 1904. Father
Caffrey resigned the pastorage of St Pat
rick's in 1904 and returned to Ireland.
He was succeeded by Rev. William Mat
thews, who continued pastor until
his death, April 80, 1854 He was buried
in the churchyard of st. Patrick S,
where so many Washingtonians were
laid to rest. He is now at rest in Mount
Olivet cemetery. to which the ashes of
many fellow townspeople We're trans
ferred from st. Patrick's burying
ground. st. Peters burying ground and
other Catholic cemeteries that were
within the city limits. In the matter
of Mount Olivet, the Rambler has be-
fore him the following. which he took
from The Star of June 26. 1857:
