When the young British of1cer set
out from Georgetown, for Snow Island,
South Carolina, to confer with Gen.
Francis Marion regarding an exchange
OF prisoners he did not guess that he
was to share in an episode that would
be immortal in American history.
The heart of every patriotic citizen
of the United States is always stirred
by the story of the meal served by Gen.
Marion to his young guest on this occa-
sion-a repast utterly homely and
humble, but so dramatic in its impli-
cations that it has become more cele-
brated than any costly banquet the
country has had.
The young Briton was led blind
folded to the camp of Marion, for the
guerilla leaders only safety was in
keeping utterly secret his exact where
aboutS.
When the visitors eyes were uncov-
cred he found himself in the midst of
forest of magnificent trees festooned
with moss. Under them stood motley
group of men. They were the soldiers
of the man whom the British called
1.-THE Swamp Fox" and his partisan
1.-The Bayard of the South"
A small man arose from a log and
came toward him. 1t was Marion, the
genius who had furnished the sole
colonial resistance to the British in

alternately and in full view of the

must stop or go as the ngnJ lnolcaIeS

who stop must Immediately seat them

should be watch the green light and

Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

March 10, 179I.--Mai. Pierre Charles
L Enfant, lately an officer in the Engi-
neer Corps Of the Revolutionary Army,
established himself today in George
town to begin surveying the lands con-
/ tiguous to this town, where the new
Federal City is to be built. Maj. Len
FAINT is a French gentleman, who has
been employed by President Washing
ton for this purpose. He reached
Georgetown yesterday and expects to
remain in this vicinity until the work
is completed.
Maj. LEnfant has brought with him
instructions Ito confine himself to the
lands within the Eastern Branch, the
Potomac River, the Tiber and the road
leading from Georgetown to the ferry
on the Eastern Branch" President
Washington has asked him to begin at
the lower end and work upward" The
letter of instructions to him was written
by Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State,
at the Presidents direction.
You are directed to proceed to
Georgetown" says this letter, where
you will find Mr.. Ellicott employed in
making survey and map of the Fed
eral territory. The special object in
asking your aid is to have drawings of
the particular grounds most likely to be
offered for the site of the Federal town
and buildings"
Mr.. Ellicott is a native of Bucks
County, Pa of English stock His
father established the flour mills about
10 miles west of Baltimore, known as
Ellicott Mills. His fathers family be-
longed to the Society of Friends, but
in the late War of independence the
principles of the society did not prevent
the son from giving his services to the
cause of his country, and he became a
major in the Maryland Militia.
After the war Maj. Ellicott engaged
in his profession of surveyor, and was
employed by the State of Virginia in
1874 in completing the boundary be-
tween that State and Pennsylvania,
known as the Mason and Dixon line
Later he was employed by Pennsylvania
to run the west and north lines of that
State. He is now in his thirty-seventh
year, and when he was 80 years old
was elected a member of the American
Philosophical Society. Two years ago
he moved his residence from Baltimore
to Philadelphia.
Maj. LEnfant stands high in the
esteem of Gen. washington. He is a
native of Paris, where he was born in
1854. He came to this country in the
Summer of 1777, several months before
Gen. Lafayette arrived He joined the
Continental Army as a volunteer, and
at his own expense, and was made a
captain in the Corps of Engineers April
80, 1779. He was wounded in gallant
forward movement in the assault on
Savannah, and was made prisoner OF
the British in May, 1880, at the siege
of Charleston, S. G. In November of
that year he was exchanged, and he
served in the American Army to the
close of the war.

of obtaining supplies. But his force
was not fitted for this sort Of warfare.
He had been compelled TO fall back to

The young officer had been anxious
to meet the famous leader. He sue

exceedingly captivating in manner.

as. small of stature, but hardy, healthy
and vigorous. Brave but not braggart,
never avoiding danger, but never rashly

a strict disciplinarian. careful Of the
lives Of. his men but little mindful OF
his own life. just in his dealings, free
from anything selfish or mercenary and
incapable of a Tneanness." Surely a
perfect eulogy! !.
When the business Of the day had
been concluded, Marion invited the
young Britisher to remain and have
dinner with him, an invitation the Wis
itor was pleased to accept. His aston
ishmant was unbounded when the only
food brought forward was roasted po~

Household Methods
By BETSY CALLIsTER.

For business letters use business-like
stationery. even If you are not busi-
ness woman. Single sheets Of paper
bearing your address at the top are q
good selection for business purposes,
and 1t Is possible to have paper printed
with your address at q price no greater
than ordinary paper without the printed
address. This printed paper may be
used with envelopes to match, bearing
the address on the flap.
However, there Is economy in using
envelopes bearing the postage stamped
upon them, and it Is in perfectly good
form to send business letters out in
these envelopes.
To be sure these do not have the
printed address on the outside. It saves
time If you have made a little rubber
stamp bearing your address. This may
be used to give the return address on
business letters, though 1t would not
do for social or purely personal letters.
Remember, too, that while the Post
once Department makes use of the
return address when marked on the
ny of the envelope, we are urged to
put this information upon the upper
left-hand corner of the front side of
the envelope.
