MIR. and Mrs. Robert Feehan spent
Thursday night of last week in
White Bluffs. Mr.. Feehan owned one
of the state land settlement tracts
north of town when the project
was being settled but sold the place

past year he said he had been oper-
ating a camp ground and service sta
ton on one of the well travelled
highways in California and had an
exceptionally prosperous season His
lease however, had expired and he
decided to spend the winter in Flor
ida. He was driving one OF the large
late model cars and said that when
he reached Umatilla on the Co

not resist the temptation to drive
up here to "sce how the old place

with the tobacco grown so abundantly
in its vicinity. Money being scarce at
the time of its building. the vestry was
obliged to impose tax of 81 900 pounds
of tobacco on the parish, by the sale OF
which the church was built. Choice
Orinoco tobacco paid the purchase price
for ground for the rectory and for the
"glebe." embracing some 500 acres; and
the clergymanS salary was also paid
in the same legal tender. Fines for
killing deer out of season" and "for
hunting on the Sabbath" were turned
into the church treasury to alleviate the
condition of the poor, the lame and the
blind, as well as to bury them when
they shook off their mortal ills.
Though, with the exception of Mount
Vernon, no other building In America
is so closely associated with the life Of
George Washington. Christ Church has
other associations too. In its register Is
found the record of baptism of Gen.
Robert E. Lee. During the American
Civil War the Federal troops occupied
Alexandria and the church was held
by the military authorities. Many Of
the most prominent communicates fed
within the Federal lines and a large
mound in its churchyard marks the
resting place Of some "a Confederate
soldiers who died in the Federal hos

THE parish of Fairfax, in Virginia,
was created in 1765. and a member
of the family of the great Sir Christie
pher Wren. builder of the wonderful
cathedral of St. Paul of London, was
delegated to draw the plans for the
church, which was to be erected in a
wooded plot of some 500 acres at Alex
andria. The contract for its erection
was let in 1867, the cost being about
$4,000 a huge sum in those days.
Five years later. for some unknown
cause. the contractor failed to complete
his work and Col. John Carlyle agreed
to complete the structure for an addi-
tional thousand dollars. One year later
1t was handed over complete to its YES
trymen. On that same date George
Washington purchased for himself and
his family pew. paying almost one
hundred dollars for it. He also pre-
sented to the church the handsome
brass chandelier that still hangs from
the old ceiling.
The completed church is handsome
building in simple Colonial style. Built
of brick and shingled with juniper
wood 1t still stands today. historic
landmark of Alexandria. Until 1912 1t
had neither chimney nor stove, foot
stoves furnishing the only warmth to
the undaunted worshipers of those
