Washington:
AS | have heard. since my arrival
at this place, a circumstantial account
of my death and dying speech. take
this early opportunity of contradicting
The first and of assuring you that

What q chance was lost there to
anticipate by more than a century
, Mark Twain's celebrated epigram
about the news of his death being
greatly exaggerated! But it could
not be expected that Washington,
with the scenes of that carnival of
blood still fresh in his mind. would
be inclined to comment upon such
report with any degree of whimsical
: humor. Instead his thoughts ON the
matter were far different in tone.
and they suggest the possibility of
his having some strangely prophetic
vision of the destiny that awaited
him when he continued his letter with
these words:
BY the all powerful dispensations of
Providence, have been protected be-
yond human probability and expecta-
rion: for ] had four bullets through
my coat, and two horses shot under
me, yet escaped unhurt, although
death was leveling my companions on
every side of me.
And there are those who agree as
to the "dispensation of Providence"
who believe that If the bullet which
killed Edward Braddock. the British
general. had struck down instead
young colonial named George Wash
ington, the history of the United
States would have been vastly differ

voyage to the West Indies, frequent

many times he travelled up and down
the Northern Neck" to attend the ses-
sions of the house of burgesses at old
Williamsburg.
In these last mentioned journeys he
often crossed into Maryland to recross
again into Virginia and vice versa, to
avoid the mud and heavy going of the
old Potomac path down the west bank
of that river. The journeys to Will
+. liamsburg, from Mount Vernon, by way
of Fredericksburg or Port Tobacco,
Maryland, were made SO many times
that 1t is regrettable that none OF the
old inns, or "ordnaries," at which
Washington was wont to stay, have
survived The state of Virginia is now
earnestly at work upon a system of
markers, or tablets, for it's historic
spots and the locations of the more i'm
portant, at least, of these hostelries
will, doubtless, be fixed as result;
but as the buildings themselves disap-
peared long before photography was
recognized as valuable art. there is
small likelihood that authentic pic
lures of many of. them will ever be
found.
Prior to Washington's marriage and
while he was in command on the from
tier, he travelled, almost entirely, on
horseback and there are indications
that the excessive and hard riding of
those frontier days was largely re.
sponsible for one of the severe ILL
nesses of his life. Excepting the west
ern plainsmen of later days, there are
few Americans who have spent so much
of their lives IN the saddle as did
George Washington and few parallels
can be found in American history for
the riding performed by him in his
services to his state and to the nation.
Nearly all of the riding, during the
period covered by this volume, was
through regions wild, or sparsely set
tied, minus the advantages of good
roads and frequently upon nothing bet
ter than an Indian trail or hunting
path, exposed many times to the arrow
or bullet of the savage.
Although the book is in effect
"day-by-day" account of the activities
of washington over this period of
years, complete only so far as ac-
cessible documents make it possible
to compile such a record, and there
fore lacking the narrative appeal of
other books on Washington which
have appeared in increasing numbers
during recent years. there is a world
of human interest in some Of these
documents. There is, for example.
