come of their work on earth.
And if Maj. Pierre Charles L'Enfant,
artist, engineer, architect, soldier of
the American Revolution and intimate
OF Washington and Lafayette could
revisit US, no such return would seem
to have more dramatic possibilities.
For it was this brilliant and tempera-
mental Frenchman who planned the
capital city of the United States Of
America, apparently destined to be
the most beautiful city of earth. Yet
he died broken, discredited and en-
Filtered. believing his great work
doomed to certain failure. For gen.
erations his remains lay In an I'M
marked and unknown grave. Indeed
half stick of nonpareil will contain
his whole career as commonly set
forth in an encyclopedia:
L'Enfant, Charles Pierre-Born In
Paris in 1885; studied engineering,
architecture and art and was a lieu
tenant in French army; f777, came
with Lafayette and entered Colonial
army; 1873, promoted to captaincy in
engineers; 1879. wounded at Savannah;

ton and exchanged in November; as
signed to engineering on General
Washington's staff; 1888, commissioned
brevet major; designed badge of the
Society of the CINCINNATI; laid out
Washington; declined professorship of
engineering at West Point; died June
IA, 1926.
So runs the brief notation. Let us
read between the lines.
General Washington noted the
young Frenchman's efficiency, had him
commissioned major of engineers and
took him into his official family.
Washington as President used him on
government work in New York and
Philadelphia. When congress In July
of 1880 passed an act establishing
the permanent seat Of government
of the United States" and turning
over direction of the job to the Presi-
dent, L'Enfant wrote Washington. say
ing in part:
The late determination of congress
to lay the foundation of a. city which
is to become the capital of this vast
empire offers so great an occasion Of
