TN 1907, Hugh Taggart, one Of the foremost
barristers and the late father Of the talented
lady-Miss Eta L. Taggart-who was elected
to the City Council, wrote paper for the
Columbia Historical Society on "Old George
town." in which he said, In speaking OF Ana
lostan Island: cit passed into the possession
Of George Mason by q deed from Francis Ham
mersley dated August 20, 1777, hence the name
Mason's Island"
Those who recall Mr.. Taggart and his ability
as a lawyer and historian, especially on matters
relating to Georgetown, will appreciate the
weight of his statement and will conclude that
the island did not come into George Masons
possession until the year 1777. Indeed. Mr..
Taggarts whole statement is so interesting that
the writer feels it will bear quoting, as follows:
st have in my possession map showing the
Potomac River and its tributary streams, pre-
pared by Moll a London geographer, and, al
though it bears no date, there is reason to
believe that it made its appearance early IN
the first half Of the eighteenth century.

YING close to the Virginia shore but
still within the boundaries Of the
District of Columbia, is Analostan
Island, which Is known to so Few
people nowadays, but which In past
years-and especially in the early days OF
Washington-was one OF the most attractive
and beautiful spots in the Federal territory
Indeed. Analostan or Masons Isand-by both
of which names 1t is equally well known
existed as o well known estate years before
the City Of Washington was laid out. being
the property of George Mason OF Gunston HAN.
Though apparently merged with the Virginia
side of the Potomac, yet 1t is easily discernlple
as one passes across the Key Bridge from whcn
it is not far distant to the east, and though
having the appearance of being somewhat nat
in its topography, yet it Is deceptive, for 1t
has at some places an elevation Of more than
60 feet.
George Mason of Gunston Hall was the
fourth of that name in direct line In this
country. The first George was born in Eng
land and died in Virginia in 1886. George OF
Cunston inherited considerable land from his
father as the latter had also inherited from
KS forebears. Consequently, the fourth George,
when he had arrived at the age Of 81, found
himself one of the richest men in Colonial Viz
pinia his estates even extending into Maryland,
where his father died in Charles County in 1875.
Just how the fourth George Mason became
possessed of Analostan Island the writer Is un-
able to say for the authorities seem to differ
as to the dates and method of obtaining title,
but he feels it was by purchase and not by
grant.
Kate Mason Rowland, in her work entitled
'The Life of George Mason" has this to say
on the subject:
In 1748 a ferry was established from the
plantation of George Mason, opposite to ROCK
Creek over to Maryland And this ferry across
the Potomac has historic interest. ROCK
Greek runs between Georgetown and WASH
ington and the land opposite in Virginia was
a tract patented by George Mason's father, and
lies short distance above Arlington Near
here in 1738 ferry had been established across
the Potomac on the land Of Francis Aubrey,
and it was now removed to George MaScns
place about half mile higher up the river.
about this time it may have been that
George Mason obtained by patent from Lord
Baltimore the island opposite Rock Greek, called
Analostan or Masons Island, though it was
called at one time, we learn by George
Mason's will Barbados The island and ferry
both came later to one of George Mason's sons.
And for more than a century the ferry con-
tinued In existence to be replaced at length by
a toll bridge Finally, in April 1888, free
bridge was inaugurated at this point and Tor
the first time in a century and half the
traveller could cross the Potomac at ROCK creek
without paying toll or fee."
From this it would see, that George Mason
of Gunston inherited Analostan Island from
the estate of his father who died in 1885 but,
as a matter of fact as will hereinafter be shown,
he obtained # Ry deed made eS Siress 70 him.

FOOD-BOLTING
HABIT CAN Be
OVERCOME
Doctor Recommends Milk
Drink in Late Afternoon

The wear and tear Of an active
day sometimes leaves business men
and women IN a state of nervous
fatigue. BY the time home is reached
and the evening meal served, the
fatigued person is TOO hungry TO eat
slowly. AS a result of food boiling,
or eating too fast, the discomfort
Of indigestion often follows.
In such cases, a leading Phila-
delphia doctor recommends drink
ing a favored milk beverage in the
late afternoon, or eating two or
three cookies or a piece of candy.
The sugar in this food checks hunger
and overcomes nervous fatigue in
an appropriate way. Later, the eve
ming meal can be eaten with calm
enjoyment.
Such endorsement of sugar should
not be overlooked. Too often home
diets are lacking in this important
food. In this connection the ten
dency to eliminate desserts from bal
snced meals is dietetically wrong.
Aside from the quick energy
sugar supplies, it can help in pro
noting a more balanced diet. A
dash of sugar to a pinch of salt in
cooking vegetables heightens their
flavor and causes them to be eaten
with more relish. AS a matter of
fact, such use of sugar increases
the value of the food thus seasoned.
Good food promotes good health.

United Press stan Correspondent

PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, March
6.-Insistence that the Hoover
Haitian commission intervene in
domestic politics and suppress the
council OF state by which the presi-
dent of Haiti is elected, has forced
the commission to make its posi-
ton clear to compliments against
President Luis Borno.
Replying to repeated suggestions
that internal strife will cease only
when the council has been abolished
and the nation returns to free
elections, Chairman w. Cameron
Forbes informed anti-administration
spokesman that the commissions
hands are tied.
The commission merely is an in
vestigating body, and has no ad-
miniStrative powers, such as would
be entailed in suspension Of the
council, Forbes told the speakers.
Borno's opponents then urged the
commission to communicate i'm
mediately with Washington, urging
the United States government to
do away with the organization
through which, they claim, Borno
has perpetuated himself in Office
with the aid of the American
marines"
