Descriptions of interiors usually begin with
the walls, and those in the newly finished cot
tage interior are beautiful with the softest shade
of gray green in the formal places. white plaster
in the informal places, ending up with white
wash in the out of door kitchen. The house has
been made as freproof as possible and strength
ened in those spots weakened by the passage
of time and strange tenants. Green was chosen
for the dull finish on the walls because con-

times asserted that any job using that cc-r

this to mean that the homes whose owners
could obviously afford the increased cost were
done in green paint on the inside. Also, when
the cottage wood was scraped 1t was found
that the original color there had been green.
The floors are as yet uncovered, the wide
planks of the Revolutionary era being repro
duced where necessary. No rugs or carpets
are to be used, because of sanitary reasons, as
the house is open constantly to visitors. The

Restoration of Mary Washington Cottage
BY LILY LYKES SHEPARD.

- OR the first time In its history as
Shrine to which thousands of American
patriots have made a pilgrimage, the
Mary Washington cottage at Freder-
icksburg in Virginia, is now coming
into its own with an interior restoration
to represent the way it looked for a Colonial
of Mrs Washingtons period and circumstances
This house was the home OF the mother Oh
Gen George Washington from IT'S, when ne
brought her in from her plantation to insure
her safety from the British forces, until her
death in 1889. Because of the role this cottage
has p,ayed in many of the most important hours
of George Washington's career, 1t Will each
wear crow deeper into the hearts OF the people
of this country like that other simple homestead
in the Vermont hills, where Calvin Coolidge
took his oath of office as President OF the United
States with his father as its administrator.
Tt was in the downstairs bed room OF the Fred
ericksburg house that the first President of the
United States knew the bitterness that comes
with reaching the heights of glory and then
learning that the one person needcd 10 give
sweetness to this triumph was TO be absent from
the world. He had haStened to his mothers
homo as soon as he had been notified of his
election as President only to find her so ravaged
by the incurable malady from which She had
suffered for several years that they both knew
this was to be their farewell interview THIS
happened in April, as he was on his way to
New York to assume his new duties, ana py
August she had died
The house is now owned by the Association
for the Preservation OF Virginia Antiquities,
which acquired the property at the time of the
Worlds Fair in Chicago to prevent a candy
manufacturer from taking 1t out there as
curio Under an arrangement made last Winter,
Francis P. Garvan of New York City and his
wife Mabel Brady Garvan, have completely re-
finished the interior of the house and have
named it one of the exhibit depots of the Mabel
Brady Garvan Institute of American Arts and
Craft Of Yale University.
Automotive pilgrims returning from the re-
cent celebrations at yorktown were given the
first public glimpse of what the institute is going
to do with the interior Of the cottage. This
opening of the rooms after weeks of work at
the hands of carpenters, painters and plasterers
revealed draperies, prints and furniture OF con-
Siderable intrinsic value, which are certain to
warm the imagination of every antiquarian
viewing them besides vastly increasing the inn
portance of the cottage as lesson in Colonial
history.
IA /HILE the restoration is not yet completed,
w the principal pieces may be said to be
in place except in the small upstairs bed room,
which is traditioned to be the one occupied by
George Washington when he visited there.
China more glassware and other homelike
touches are yet to be placed. The duties Of

~HIEF interest lies in the toiles de Jouy
~ from which the curtains in the dining
and upstairs guest rooms are made. Here is
something rare in the restorations made In
this section of the country and would grace any
museum having its own early American wing.
These toiles are made of old French linen,
although calico and other oottons were COM
monty used in that historic factory established
near the gate of Versailles, at Josy, in 1853.
The genuine pieces such as those in the Mary
Washington house, come to an exorbitant price
today and have bound into the undimmed COL
ors and strong threads of their folds one of
the most fascinating stories of this form OF
French art when Jouneyman dyer and
printer of calicoes attained title of nobility
and the highest art prize within his country's
gift because of his skill in making these toiles
during the time of Louis XVI and Napoleon.
In those days, says history, no housewife
throughout the world from London to Salonica
considered her house suitably equipped unless
she had curtains and draperies of the gor-
geousy printed pastorals from Jouy, and what
more natural than for her American sisters TO
have become inbued with the same idea? This
foreign trade made fortune for Oberkampf,
the journeyman who founded the plant and
employed the best artists of his day to make
his designs
The best known of these, perhaps, was j. B.
Huet, the author of the toiles in the Mary
Washington house, as he was one of the most
successful exponents of using the detached
scene and storytelling pictures scattered over
a plain background for this cotton yardage.
The pen and ink drawings well as the wash
drawings said to be the entire series he ex-
ecuted for the Jouy factories. are now In the
Central Museum of Decorative Arts in France,
presented by descendant of one of the orig
inaI owners of the works. Huet's favorite SUBJ
jects for these designs were country games
and rural grouping, his extraordinary knack
for presenting the truly rural being one of the
reasons for the permanency of his creations.
One critic declares his COWS have individuality
and character" Yet the artist mingled castles
and gentry with his peasantry with equal
success. '.+.
There is touch of further historical sig
nif1cance in the particular toiles used by MFR.
Halsey in his scheme of decoration. The red
and white PASTORAL used in the dining room
marks the invention of turkey red" dipping at
the Oberkampf factory and started a universal
vogue for red and white hangings. So with the
blue and white curtains in the upstairs guest
chamber, new process was marked IN dying
blue figures on q white background for the
first time at Jouy. This particular toiie chosen
by MI. HalSey is done in the famous 'hear
Hunt" by Hnet. whose most ambitious abtemps

in America the latter part Of the eighteenth
century, made from goods brought here by
Colonial sea traders merchant ships sailing
from foreign ports or by an exchange OF mer-
chandise in the French West Indies.
Small wonder Mr. Halsey Is proud OF the
curtains he has been able TO hang In the cot
tage In the parlor, the finest room In the
house, the hangings at the windows are of
rich old rose and gold worsted lined with
harrnonizing color and edged with fringe to
