tember %, 1900. This will is not nearly so long
nor so involved as that of General Washington.
1t was probated in 1902 by George Washington
Parke Custis and Thomas Peter, two of the execu-
tors. 1t was taken up with the disposition or
household effects and provisions for the education
of, her relatives. Three granddaughters, four
nieces, her grandson four nephews grandniece
and other distant relatives and friends are men
toned. To them she gave paintings, town lots
and to nearly all of them she gave from hve TO
ten guneas with which to buy rings.
One of the odd provisions was "1t is my viii
and desire that Ann Mariah Washington, daughter
of my niece, be put into handsome mourning at
my death at the expense of my estate, and ! be-
queath to her ten guineas to buy ring
Another unusual order reads 1T is my Will
and desire that all of the wine in bottles in the
vaults be equally divided between my grand
daughters and grandson, to each OF whom J
bequeath ten guineas to buy ring for each"
All of the family pictures, except few spe-
ciically mentioned, were left to George Washing
ton Parke Custis, and to him went large collec-
tion Of household furnishings, including beds.
water coolers china and furniture. Special pro-
vision was made for the education of three neph-
ews who were to be fitted in 'some useful
trade" and she made further provision that
100 pounds be given to each to set him up in his
trade.
The belated sreturn of these two famous docu-
ments, so essentially personal and human in their
contents to the little courthouse where they were
both filed for probate over century ago has
made of Fairfax Court House another Mecca for
the history-oving tourist, and it is rapidly falling
into line after Mount Vernon and Alexandria In
point of popularity.
