young people walked ashore. IT was
he who saw the monkey-deFlis. as

down Mr.. Weatherhy and who car

and who believed that IN SO DONG
he was executing the vengeance OF

the proper thing for the hero TO nave
done would have been to instantly
knock down or even kill the villain
and then to have released the I'M
prisoned maiden and bear her away
in his arms TO safety. while waiting
for the Gallery's applause. Would II
not? But you see. this was not Eu-

made all the difference in the world.

than tho beginning. No. 1t was be
lieved that the unseen spirits had
stolen the lady away in the hrst
place. and ii was far better that they
should continue to believe that the
same spirits had taken her away
from the priest. Hence his rushing
trip back to Shaghai, his secret an
nounccment to the police and his
hurrying back with the medicine. To
his intense relief, the monkey-devil
was unharmed and the moment or

of Miss Robinson and the theft of the
stone tongues of the lions. He also
discovered that both the rolling stones
had been removed and there was a
strong undercurrent of feeling that
the foreigners in the house boat had
taken them, and the strange thing
was that they had been taken on two
different days. He also ascertained
the very significant fact that the half
witted priest had visited the bridge
on the very day that the first stone
had been taken and was overheard to
have cursed the monkey devils that
did it, but as he was wont to mutter
all sorts of curses on all sorts of peo
pie nobody paid any special attention
TO him. and his words were treated as
the harmless gibbering of lunatic.

to follow him to his lair. and after

turned to New York, whence he had

plants sent by Michaux to Washing
ton and set out in the ground at
Mount Vernon. Mr.. McAtee wrote:
The first formal list of plants of the
District of Columbia appeared in Da-
vid Baillie Warden's Chorographical

J trict of Columbia. The list is entitled
Florula Colum biana and contains 142
species identified by the celebrated
botanist. Joseph Correa de Sierra, am
bassador from Portugal to the United
States"
That was the first published list of
District plants. but it was not the
first list prepared, for in the biolog
lcal bulletin there is foot note which
says that "Rafinesque informs us that
he prepared a Florula Colum bica, or
catalogue of the plants found in the
District of Columbia, in 1904. which he
gave to DR.. B. s. Barton for inser-
ton in the Philadelphia Medical and
Physical journal. DR.. Barton in 1906
acknowledged this to be fact and
promised to publish the catalogue

In tracing the history of Analostan

ing. Steuben county. n "
The witnesses to the will were
Lovejoy and Joseph III. Bradley. jr.
The revenue stamps attached to the
will were S43.50. In the proceedings
in the probate court the testator was
described as William A. Bradley, late
of Washington county.
In the same will book" in which
one finds the will of Mr.. Bradley, are
other wills that caught the Ramblers s
eyes and awakened memories. Per-
haps you might like to hear about
them? Perhaps if you should turn the
pages of that book you would come
upon many wills which would bring
the past before you. There was the
will of George Washington Young "of
the county of Washington" He was
George Washington Young of Gis-
borough, now spelled Giesboro, one
of the wealthy men of the Eastern
branch country. The revenue stamps
attached to his will were $3.50. MIR.
Young's will was executed February
Glancing through it, the Rambler sees
mention of the testator's wife, Hen
rietta +. Young, and his sons. Joseph
n. Young and Washington A. Young.
George Washington Young bought
Gisborough. in 1888. from the heirs
of DIR. John Thomas Shaaf of An
napolis who bought it from John Ad-
olson in 1909. who had it by descent
from the immigrant, Col. John Addi-
son, who got it by marriage with
Rebecca Wilkinson Dent, widow OF
- Dent and it grieves the Rambler
that among his notes he cannot f1nd
the full name of this early settler

Dent was the patentee of the land.
and called it Gisborough, after the
Dent home near Gisborough, in York.
shire, England. On the other hand,
the Rambler feels that Gisborough
may cover land included in patents
issued in 1862 to George Thompson of
Charles county. But he will not take
the time tonight to settle that ques-
tion. The adjoining tract. st. Eliza
beth, goes back to a Thompson pat
emit The Dents were very early own
ers of Gisborough. and gave it its
name, and for all useful purposes it
does not matter whether Dent bought
it from the proprietary Of Maryland
or from Thompson.
George Washington Young was the
son of Nicholas Young of Nonesuch.
