"The Morning of the
Resurrection"
1t Has Been Argued by
Churchmen That This Great
Scene Could Not Have Been
Enacted if the Savior's Body
Had Been Cremated.


No move was made to transfer
the remains from the crypt to this
new and more imposing resting
place until 1916. Early in that year
the bishops children petitioned the
proper authorities for permission
to remove the body from the crypt
and have 1t cremated. Every pre-
caution was taken TO keep all
knowledge of this petition from the
public.
The late Dean Grosvenor was the
only one OF the cathedral officials
to be acquainted with the family's
plans. He agreed TO them and
helped not only to carry them out,
but TO keep them secret.
Shortly after midnight on the
last day of April. 1916, an automo-
bile hearse rolled into the cathe-
dral grounds and drew up at the
entrance to the crypt. The under
taker. with two assistants, who
came with the hearse, were met at
the crypt door by Dean Grosvenor
and Mason II. Partridge, the sexton
OF Grace Church and a trusted
friend OF Bishop Potter and his
family.
BY the light of electric torches
the men CROPPED their way into the
shadowy chapel. The heavy marble
slab covering the tomb had been
removed earlier in the day under
pretext OF making some trivial re-
pairs in the interior 1t was there
fore an easy matter to remove the
casket and place 1t in the hearse.
Through the deserted streets at
al hour when the last OF the the
atre crowds had gone home and the
first of the milkmen had not yet
appeared the hearse was driven to
the ferryboat which carried 1t to
New Jersey. Soon after dawn the
cremation was completed. but the
ashes were held at the crematory
until they could be returned TO the
cathedral under cover of darkness
and with the same secrecy that was
observed on the previous night.
On May 2, 1916, the Bishops
ashes were placed in the new tomb.
But nobody outside of the Bishops
family, Dean Grosvenor, the sex
ton. the undertakers and the
crematory superintendent had any
idea that 1t was only cremated
ashes which were transferred to
this new resting place and not the
remains originally buried in the
crypt.
Both the size and shape Of the
sarcophagus indicate that 1t was

ME1 DEATH AS
Brave SOLDIER
Last of Fighting WashingtonS'
Killed in SkirmiSh of
Civil War.
SERVED UNDER GENERAL LEE
Col. John Augustine Washington, Vir-
ginian, "Went With His State"
and Breathed His Last in
Historic Gray Uniform.

n EOUNT VERNON, Virginia
W. the former home of George
Nv and Martha Washington, and
the most interesting mansion
in the United States, has had a cOntin-
uous interesting history connected
with it, aside from the associations
with the first president of the United
States and the first of the first ladies
of the land.
Colonel Washington, who had be-
come proprietor of the paternal es-
tates on the Rappahannock, acquired
the magnificent domain of Mount Yer
non upon the death of the widow of
his half brother, Lawrence Washing
ton, and shortly after his marriage he
began to occupy it and it was his home
up to the time of his death.
Upon the death of Martha Wash
ington, on May %, 1902. about 1000
acres of the Mount Vernon estate, in
GLIDING the mansion, were inherited
by Judge Bushrod Washington, the
third child of John Augustine Wash
ington. Judge Washington was a JUS
tice of the Supreme court of the Unit
ed States, and took up his residence at
Mount Vernon, where he dispensed a
liberal hospitality and kept intact his
inherited landed estate to the time of
his death.
Judge Washington had no children,
and following the example of his IL
lustrious uncle, he provided for his
wife during her lifetime, and then
disposed of his estate to his nephews
and nieces, giving specific directions
and leaving the mansion house and
Mount Vernon farm proper, with re-
stricted bounds, to his nephew, John
ApgKttinex Washington, and Mount
dIr@ssJ inherited by this Johns
-s0n On me same name, from whom
the home and 200 acres were purchased
in 1856 by the society which now con-
trolls it and cares for it.
The work of obtaining the necessary
funds-$200 ,000-for the purchase was
started by Miss Pamela Cunningham
of South Carolina, who became the
first regent. The vice regents each
appointed state committees and the
money raised was nearly all in doll-r
subscriptions. The greatest amount
of money raised by any individual was
the profits accruing from the lectures
on Washington delivered in most of
the large cities by Edward Everett.
The last private owner of Mount
Vernon was Col. John Augustine
Washington. On the breaking out of
hostilities between the states, Colonel
Washington became a volunteer aid,
with the rank of colonel, on the staff
of Gen. Robert E. Lee, and was killed
September Is, 1861, while conducting
a reconnaissance on the turnpike along
Elk Water river, Randolph county,
West Virginia.
The following account of his death
As not contained in history, but was
tfelated by Col. J. Fl. Morrow, who

commanded a brigade of four regi-
ments under Gen. George B. McClel-
Ian in the West Virginia campaign at
the time, and in whose arms Colonel
Washington expired. General Lee had
established his headquarters at Brady's
tollgate on the old state turnpike. The
bluffs on the opposite side of the river
from the old road had been heavily
picketed by Federal soldiers for sew
eral miles, extending from Colonel
Morrow's camp below quite up to
Brady's gate.
Owing to the mountainous character
of the surrounding country, General
Lee was imperfectly informed in this
regard, and directed Colonel Washing
ton, with a detachment, to proceed
by the new road to the forks at or
e Brady's gate and then down the
old road, cautioning him not to ven
ture beyond a certain point. Washing
ton, however, it appears, probably
actuated by overzeal and anxiety to
be able to report valuable information,
went beyond the point indicated.

1t stands apart-alone-supreme,
A shaft of stone-matchless-sublime;

Plain, unadorned, Immaculate,
1t rises high toward heaven;

All know the hist'ry so unwritten.
This peerless pile of solid stone
Is not a sphinx, nor yet a tomb;

His country's pride and boast;
His spirit banishes all hate
And binds the states from coast to
