contains forty-two diaries, reprints or
first prints of all the Washington
diaries in existence. OF these forty
two, thirty-siX are from the original
diaries in the possession of the library,
four others from originals in private
hands, the only two other diaries in
existence being printed copies, of
which the originals are no longer in
existence. The diaries cover the life
time of Washington from his six
teenth year to the very day before
his death, with some gaps.
The editing and publishing of the
diaries has been undertaken by the
regents of Mount Vernon. 1t Is this
society of ladies which raised the
money to buy Mount Vernon, to put
it in repair and to keep 1t once re-
stored, as it was when Washington
lived there. The society was partic-
ularly anxious to have the diaries
published in preference to any other
of his papers because the former dealt
SO closely with his life at Mount Ver-
non.
1t has taken Mr.. Fitzpatrick two
wears or thereabouts to get the dia-
ries ready for publication. In the quiet
of the manuscript room after closing
time he has pored over the note
books, some of them older than the
Nation itself. He has brought to bear
upon them the knowledge derived
from years of fascinating familiarity
with Washington papers, that he
might make the text clear.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN IN THE Ma
TIONAL CAPITAL. By Allen c.


THERE are in the National Capital
i many points inalienably associ-
ated with the name and memory of
Abraham Lincoln. Some of these are
well. known to the general public
as the White House is known, the
Lincoln Memorial and the statue In
Lincoln Park and the one in Judiciary
Square; as the old Ford Theater is
known, and the house across from il
where Abraham Lincoln died. To
these familiar points Allen c. Clark
of this city has through persistent
industry supported by a deep interest
searched out and set down here other
spots within the Capital 10 which the
memory of Lincoln contributes the
substance Of history and the spirit
of National patriotism.
One such place is the Soldiers Home,
where the Lincolns lived in the Summer
time. Another is Carroll row. where
Lincoln as a Congressman from 1lli
nois boarded. There is the plan. in
detail. of the Ford Theater and its
stage where the tragedy was COM
pleted. And the little toy shop on
New York avenue where the President
and his little son, Tad" liked to
browse and loiter. And many another
place Of like interest. To this careful
up VI TIE spots All
Washington Mr.. Clark has added a
slight geographic sketch of Lincoln as
youth and Congressman and President
and martyr. To this he has append
ed a brief outline of the trials follow
ing the assassination of the President
a fair and good tribute is paid to the
memory of Mrs. Lincoln who, out of
the vagaries of public opinion, seems
not to have had full justice done to
her very real qualities of womanhood.
A carefully chosen photography. used
in part for the preparation of this
book and designed in other part for
the use of readers. is presented here.
together with a list of the Lincoln
memorials within the city and the
story of their creation.
