called George Washington the man
with a charmed life. the shots which
they directed against him during the
French and Indian Wars went through
his clothing and killed two horses
upon which he had been seated. but
never scratched the great man him
self. For that reason the Indians were
afraid of him and called him Pro
tected by Manitou, the Great Spirit
Wherever he went and in whatever
calling he was engaged Washing on's
astounding good fortune attended him.
One day during the American War for
Independence, Washington was camp.
ing with his men not far from West
Point. where dwelt an old man whose
family had long been in this country
but whose heart was still loyal to the
English King. A messenger arrived in
camp with a note for the great Cen
eral asking him to call and dine with
the old gentlemen at his colonial man
sion at precisely two O'Clock that day
Washington who had passed through
so many dangers felt that danger
awaited him should he dine with the
old man, but wishing to know If his
fears were well grounded, he accepted
the invitation and let the old man
think he was falling into his trap"
WAS it really trap?" asked Jack
eathlessly.
How did he hope to escape?" said
Jimmie. "Oh, go on tell us what hap
pened"
Washington was as wary as he wa
wise. and so at one o'clock, just an
hour before the appointed time he ar
rived at the old eentleman's home. The
old man appeared surprised and III a
case, and Washington suggested that
they walk on the veranda. During
the conversation Washington led the
talk to the subject of traitors and

than done. and the wise man, as
Washington had anticipated. promised
his aid and supplied many of the needs
of the army.
After Il time when people were per
picked about national affairs they
said: we must consult Brother
Jonathan" and the phrase became
familiar one in all parts of the coun-
try Soon the term Brother Jona-
than" was applied to the country it
self-to our own United States. But
Brother Jonathan and John Bull. who
stands for England, were often con-
fused, and so Uncle Sam soon took
the place of Brother Jonathan in the
minds of Americans, though the mem
DRY of the kindly and timely aid of
the first Jonathan Trumbull still lives
in the hearts of all who read and love
the history of their country.
