Letter Describes Surrender.
Among the letters are a lock of
Washington's hair, a piece of lace
and one of silk from Martha WASH
ington's wedding dress.
Describing the surrender of York
| town to Gen. Greene, In 1882. he said ::
This proposition led to
| definite capitulation, which was signed
on the 18th. In which his lord
ship surrenders himself and troops
prisoners of war to the American
Army; marched out with colors cased
| and drums beating a British march to
| post in front of their lines; here
their arms were grounded, the public
etc, delivered to the American Army;
| the ships, with their guns, tackle,
apparel, etc, with the seamen, sur
| rendered to the Naval Army under
Count de Grasse: Lord CORVALLIS,
| with a number of his officers, to have
liberty to 90 on parole to Europe, New
York or any other American mari
time post in possession Of the Brit
| ish forces at their option: his troops
to be kept in Virginia, Maryland or
Pennsylvania. These are the prin-
cipal articles
Appeals for Lafayette.
Ten years later, Washington, at
Mount Vernon, wrote to James Madi-
son of his intention to retire from
public life and requested him to write
! a valedictory address for him to the
| public and Quilting what he would like
to have incorporated In 1t.
An important feature of the COL
lection consists of several letters
which Washington wrote abroad in
| the hope of liberating Lafayette from
| prison. The former aide to Wash
ington was impeached by the French
assembly in 1892. He judged it best
TO leave France and was captured by
an Austrian patrol on crossing the
frontier. The Germans kept him in
| prison for a year and turned him
over to the Austrians.
Washington determined the best
course would be to divest himself of
the character of President and ap-
pealed to the Emperor of Germany as
an Individual.

NEW YORK, February 29.-Inti-
mate and warmly human side lights
ington as a young man. a soldier. a
statesman and head Of family are
revealed in letters written by the
father of his country, now in the
possession of the Pierpont Morgan
Library. which has been turned over
to the public by ]. P. Morgan as q
permanent memorial to his father.
In a letter written September %.
1855, to Mrs. George William Fairfax,
he said, in part:
Il have sent a piece of Irish linen,
piece of cambrick and a shirt to
measure by. The shirt fits tolerably
well. yet I would have this made
ruffies larger by one-haif an Inch and
the collars by three-quarters of an
inch. which Is in other respects of
proper bigness. II Miss Nancy will
do me the favor to get thread and
buttons suitable 1t will oblige me
much. i have really forgotten to
procure them myself"
Feels Money Shortage.
In marked contrast is letter writ
ten in 1889 from Mount Vernon to
Capt Conway:
Never till within these two years
have l experienced the want of
money. Short crops and other causes
not entirely within my control make
me feel it now very terribly. Under
this statement I am inclined to what
l never expected to be reduced to
the necessity Of doing It that is, to
borrow money on interest. Five hun
dred pounds would enable me to dis
charge what / owe in Alexandria,
Va. Having thus fully and
candidly expressed myself. permit
ME to ask whether 1t Is within your
power to supply me with the above
or smaller sum-"
In more cheerful vein is the letter
dated February 10. 1895. to Miss Eliz-
abeth Parke Curtis, his stepdaughter
Betsy:
IT assure you that If Mr..
Law Is the man of your choice. OF
which there can be no doubt. as he
had merits to engage you affections,
and you have. declared that he has
not only done SO, but that after care
full examination Of your heart you
cannot be happy without him-that
your alliance with him meets my
appreciation. Yes, Betsy. this appro-
baton is accompanied with my fer
vent wishes that you may be as
happy in this important event as

ever presented to view Along with
