.BOYHOOD MUCH
LIKE OTHER LADS
Fondness for Outdoor Life
Marked Characteristic Of
Washington in His Youth.
BY U s. DUN.

A CCORDlNG to the old entry In
~ the family Bible George Washing
toms birth is recorded as follows:
"A son to Augustine Washington
and Mary, his wife, vas born ye 18th
Of February, 1891, about ten Ia the
morning"
As everyone knows by the parlia-
mentary change in the calendar OF
1882, the eleventh Of the month be-
came the twenty-second, while the
settling Of the doubt whether the year
began on the first Of January or the
twenty-hfth OF March, made the year
In which Washington was born 1892
Instead Of 1881. And this important
event took place near Fredericksburg,
Va, on the Rappahannock.
From all the Lives and Letters"
extant we CLEAN the fact that the lad
who was destined to become the
greatest American Of them all" spent
his boyhood much like other lads Of
his age and position, perpetrating
many pranks and receiving many
whippings in consequence. On more
than one occasion did he and his man
Peter roast ears Of corn in forbidden
cabins OF the field slaves or go on
surreptitious coon hunts at night
when all the house was asleep. In
other words, young "Massa" did as
be pleased when with Peter, to whose
care he was entrusted more than ever
after the elder Washington died in
t743. when George was a lad OF
eleven.
As a youngster Washington had a
remarkable bump Of curiosity which
ais father encouraged, but which to
he contrary his mother disliked. AS
% the latter. we all know how fool
SHY fond she was of her children,
allowing her love to interfere with
ler good judgment, many times, max
ng herself miserable In their behalf.
Yet there is no doubt that Washing
.on's mother, as has been the case
With all great men, had a potent In
auence over his life, and her strong
character was afterwards reflected
n the remarkable balance shown by
ler son in whatever situation he wal
placed.
After his fathers death he wa'
soon made to understand that he
must do something for a living. B,

Mount Vernon was inherited by his
brother. Lawrence, while the few
acres on the Rappahannock were to
be given George upon his becoming
If age, though as a matter Of fact he
never claimed them. His sensible
brother, Lawrence, and his half
brother. Augustine, disapproved Of the
easy life OF the sons OF planters and
many animated discussions we're held
as to the future Of their young
brother.
Meantime, George was living with
his half.brother, Augustine, though
later he spent much time at Mount
Vernon with Lawrence. It was while
there that a family council resulted
IN the decision that George vas to
follow the sea. When the news
reached Mrs. Washington, however,
she was 80 upset that she hurried to
Mount Vernon and begged her son
to give up the idea Of becoming a mid
shipman. Accordingly, the small
chest OF George, which had already
been placed aboard a British vessel
was brought ashore.
1t was many a day before the lad
overcame his disappointment. His
brother Lawrence comforted him with
the assurance, There are many roads
in life: only one is barred to you
With Characteristic bravery George
never spoke Of the matter to any one
again, for as was his custom to the
day OF his death, Washington never
required to a thing when nee con
Guided.
It was after this disappointment
that he turned his attention more
definitely to surveying. In fact, he
was greatly interested in exactness
and the educational value Of survey
ing suited his taste. Even in his boy
hood. from this period on he never
found happiness in intercourse Will
his fellowmen or in reading; but Il
was in the active outdoor life that hi
was at his best. He was pronounced
"a sober little prig" by no lesser per
sonage than Lord Fairfax. when al
fifteen he again took up his residence
at Mount Vernon with Lawrence. On
better acquaintance. Lord FairfaI
