by the fact that the Shenandoah

the Confederacy.
Three battles were the most impor-
tant, and are called the First, Second
and Third Battles of Winchester
They took place in 1852, 1863 and
1864.
George Washington began his ca
reer here in 1748 as surveyor to Lord
Fairfax. Here he had his headqIar-
ters as commander on the Virginia
frontier against the French and In
dians. 1755-l758. Here he built Fort
Loundoun, and from here he was
elected to the Virginia House of
Burgesses. 1758-l76l.
Points of interest include:
Christ Episcopal Church; in the
crypt is the tomb of Thomas Lord
Fairfax, proprietor of the Northern
Neck of Virginia, who lived near Win
chester at Greenway Court.
Fort Loudoun Seminary; on the
site of Fort Loudoun, built by Maj.
George Washington in 1856.
Washington's headquarters; Cork
and Braddock streets: he occupied
this house while Fort Loudoun was
under construction. Now a museum.
lakewood Park House: ia miles
north Of Winchester; built in l777
and used as a hospital after the Bat
tie of Winchester, 1864.
Star Fort, just north Of the city;
held by Union Gen. Milroy until
ne was dislodged by Gen. Ewell,
The fort was captured by Col. Schoon-

and Piccadilly streets: commonly oc-
cupied by all the Federal commanders
while in winchester.
Court House O840), used during
the Civil War as a hospital and
prison.
Cannon Ball House, Main and Cliff

completely through it.
| A PLEASANT return route Is as
follows: Get on Berryville ave-
nue. at Winchester and follow that
until State route 7 is reached just
| outside the town. Follow z all the
way back to Falls Church, from where
the Lee Highway offers the best road
into Washington.
First town you strike is Berryville,
II miles east of Winchester. In early
days a tavern, blacksmith shop and
store stood here at the crossroads of
two paths used by settlers. The lit
/ tie settlement was called Battletown,
because it was the rendezvous, usually
not peaceful, of the youths of the
neighborhood Among them was
Daniel Morgan. who served as wagon
er in Braddocks expedition in 1855;
joined Washington with a company
of 100 riflemen when the Revolution
broke out; served with distinction at
Quebec and Saratoga. and defeated
Col. Tarleton at Cowpens. He lived
at Soldiers Rest here until he built
his home. Saratoga, near Millwood.
Two miles east of Berryville is
Audley Court, home of Nellie Parke
Custis Lewis. after the death of her
husband, Maj. Lawrence Lewis, In
1889. She died here in 1852. The
estate is privately owned and has one
of the most famous racing stables
in the country.

death in 1881. Lafayette was enter

Is not open to visitors.
Aldie possesses another point OF in
terest to the traveller. Near the VII
lage, on what was then called Peach
Orchard Farm, Julia Neale, mother
of Stonewall jackson, was born in
1898.
MIDDLEBURG needs no introduc-
ton to most Washingtonians. 1t
is justly famous for its fine horses.
beautiful estates, private race courses
and fox hunting. Two packs Of hounds
hunt here regularly during the sea-
son and attract sportsmen from all
over the East.
Upperville, next town you pass
through, is almost as well known for
its horse raising and fox hunting acti-
vities. In addition. it is widely noted
for its annual horse show, one Of the
oldest in America.
Pretty soon you cross a lovely little
stream at Paris, named by soldier
under Lafayette for his capital city
in France. Close by are many his
torical points of interest. including
Rose Bank, birthplace of the Confed-
crate general Turner Ashby and the
childhood home of Chief Justice John
Marshall.
Ashbys tavern is situated 2 miles
northwest of Paris As early as 1853
this was famous eating and rois-
tering place for distinguished leaders
of men, conducted by Thomas Watts
who was succeeded by the Ashbys. In
1871 British prisoners from Yorktown
rested there on their way to Win
chester.
About II miles this side of Win
chester is Millwood. OF outstanding
interest to the visitor is Garter
Hall, mentioned earlier as Winston
Churchills literary inspiration. 1t Is
one of the most elaborate Of Amer
ica's Colonial mansions, and is IA
nous for its architecture and interior
decorations The residence has been
in the Burwell family since its build
ing. Edmund Randolph, Governor OF
Virginia and later Secretary cf State
died here. Stonewall jackson had
his headquarters here in October
1852.
Three miles north of Millwood Is
Old Chapel. The original structure
was huilt in 1773, but the present
building dates from 1876. In the
churchyard is the tomb of Edmund
Randolph. who died at Carter Hall.
Another famous estate, about
miles northwest of Wildwood, neal
Boyce, is Saratoga. 1t was built II
1882 by Gen. Daniel Morgan anc
named for the Battle of Saratoga, ir
the Revolutionary War, where he
served with distinction. The general
put Hessian prisoners, confined under
his supervision at Winchester. to work
on the estate and many other con-
struction jobs in the country, includ-
ing some of the old stone fences seen
throughout the section and the OLD
mill at Millwood.
MANY washingtonians fail to ap-
preciate the historical jmpor-
tance Of Winchester, possibly because
they think of the picturesque town
only in terms of its fame as one OF
the Nations most famous apple grow
ing centers. Long before the white
man lived in the region, Winchester
was headquarters of powerful In
dian tribe, the Shawnees. The city
was established by law in 1852, and
played an important part IN the
