mean his last will and testament.
On an occasion such as brings us
herel today It is not inappropriate
to direct attention for q few mo-
ments to this remarkable instru.
ment.
Washington was not only a great
soldier and a great statesman; he
was also man of great business
anars' and an eminent humAni-
tartan. Provident and always me-
tnodical, he amassed a fortune,
witch has been rated by many as
the greatest Of his time in all the
country. Had 1t been his desire to
found monumental estate, the
vast tracts Of carefully selected
land OF which he was possessed,
ana In whose future value he had
the utmost confidence, would have
constituted its ample foundation.
But Plainly 1t was not his belief
that society Is best served by the
transmission from generation to
generation Of such imposing aggre-
gates of wealth. -,
Owned Vast Tracts.
Therefore his will, after devisinR
minor and largely sentimental be-
quests to many relatives and
friends, directed that the residuary
estate should be divided into twen-
ty-three equal shares, to be dis
tributed among the heirs whom he
named. Thus Il comes about that an
estate which, II held together and
wisely administered, might have

~ SO dlstributed that in a few
years Its entity was gone, and It's
portions had been absorbed into the
general body of the country's
wealth. II that process of disin-
tegration an6 absorption involved
some loss, II is probable that In
the sum Of results the nation was
gamer by the policy Of Washing
ton.
Washington as a model citizen
shines forth with a peculiar radi-
ance from this last testament. The
first provision Is that his debts
shall be paid promptly. All the
world needs the example of kept
obligations. The second item makes
generous provisions for his wife
and then comes the direction that at
her death all his slaves shall be
given freedom; that those who need
II shall be cared for by his estate:
and that they all ARE to be taught
to read and write. and are to be
brought up to some useful occu-
patton"
