and farm manager as ever.
II am not surprised at what George

April ii, 1889, Charles Thomson.
secretary of congress, arrived at
Mount Vernon with official certificates
that Washington had been elected the
first President of the new nation.
Washington prepared to accompany
Thomson to New York, then the seat
of the national government. That aft
ernoon he rode to Fredericksburg to
say good-by to his mother. She was
the effects of a painful and incurable
disease (cancer). He found her feeble
in body, but as ever strong in spirit
and bright In intellect. After an af-
fectionate greeting between them
Washington said to his mother:
'The people, Madam, have been
pleased, with the most fiattering una
nimity, to elect me to the chief mag
istracy Of the United States; but be-
fore / can assume the functions of
that Office l have come to bid you an
affectionate farewell. So soon as the
public business, which must neces-
sarily be encountered in arranging a
new government, can be disposed of.
| shall hasten to Virginia"
"You will see me no more" she
said, interrupting him. my great age.
and the disease which is rapidly ap-
preaching my vitals, warn me that l
shall not be long in this world l
trust in God l am somewhat prepared
for better. But go, George, fulfill
the high destinies which Heaven ap-
pears to assign you. Go, my son, and
may that Heavens and your mothers
blessing be with you always"
1t is known that Washington felt
that he was then seeing his mother
for the last time. 1t Is said that he
put his head on her shoulder and
wept. For it is not least In the great
ness of George Washington that he
appreciated his mother. And 1t is said
that she clasped feeble arms about
his neck and mingled her tears with
his-and she was not a woman given
to tears. Let us hope that her tears
were not all of sorrow at parting And
it was the final parting of a great son
with great mother-his best friend.
She died August 25, 1889. Her death
was felt as solemn public event and
so observed throughout the land.
Mary Washington \was never known
to show q feminine weakness except
one. She had an unconquerable fear
during thunderstorms. And that was
because, soon after marriage, an In
innate woman friend sitting beside
her was killed by a stroke of lightning.
| What does a man owe to his motherl
What did George Washington owe to
his mother? What does the United
States of America owe to Mary Wash.

has just revealed them in response to
little poem sent to the theatre by
an admirer and running thus:
I've searched in all the papers
And magazines and books
10 find your name-because
You see, | somehow like your looks
I've seen you act as Jim and Lee
But on the programme-plain III. B."
Does it stand for Hezkiah?
Hiram, Hosea or Hank
Or must you for gentle Horace
Your sponsors kindly thank?
List to a fellow artists plea
And tell to us your name. III. B."
Mr. Warner took long breath upon
reading this, and then dashed off
letter revealing the fateful secret. His
name is Henry Byron"

pressed fervent wish to see the Mid
dleton portrait of Mary Washington.
| The owner, Miss Edwardes of North
amptonshire, grand-niece of Robert
Cary, sent 1t to London, General
Grants acknowledgment was in part !:
General Grant presents his respect
full compliments to Miss Edwardes, the
envied owner of the Middleton paint
ing of Mary Washington, and begs to
tender her his hearty thanks for ex-
ceeding kindness in sending to Lon
don, for his convenience and gratifica-
tion, this admirable and evidently ito
the life" portrait of Mary Washing
ten, who, above all others, must be
held in deepest affection and exalted
remembrance by every American.
Whenever the day arrives for the re-
turn of these paintings (this and the
Sharples portraits OF the Washing
tons) to America, congress will, he
doubts not, unanimously do its duty
in the matter. The painting of Mary
Washington has especial claims as the
only portrait of her known to exist
General Grant had hoped that Mid
Ndleton's portrait was free for disposi-
tf8n. he hears therefore with regret
that family arrangements prevent for
a few years this desired accomplish
ment
General Grant begs to repeat his be-
coming sense of the honor done him,
as also NO express his entire conf
dence that at the proper time Miss
Edwardes' family will give due weight
to his counerymen's natural wish to
possess the gem, happily, for America,
under her family control.
The Middleton portrait of Mary
Washington goes far to substantiate
Washington's claim as to his mothers
beauty. There are few illusions in
writing as to her personal appearance
before her marriage And here is an
odd thing: letter found in deserted
mansion near the York river during
the Civil war, 140 years after itSwrit-
