Allan Farquhar Anticipates
His 10Th Appearance At
Presidential Inauguration
(Continued from page I

all the various methods of spanning
the twenty miles between Sandy
Spring and the Nations Capitol that
/ have adopted since / have first
formed the unbreakable habit of; see,7
ing President inaugurated, the way
I travelled this month was the best;-
on the back seat of comfortable. car,
with one charming granddaughter on
my lap going down and another
equally charming one coming back. !,
"They let me out at Union Station
and took roundabout way to the
East front of the Capitol. In these
days of mikes and amplifiers there
was no need of pressing near the
speakers platform, and / made no
effort to go beyond about the middle
of the vast throng that peopled the
great plaza, so I was too far away to
recognize more than a few of the
more prominent celebrities. Owing to
the restless stirring and muttering of
thetcrowd around me could not hear
the, inaugural address as well as
those who had remained at home nor
those in Arizona or the Philippine
Islands, but l was impressed by the
closing pasI;age: eve humbly ask the
blessing of God. May He protect each
and every one of you. May He guide
ME in the days to come" There was
no installing the sincerity and earn
estness with which those words were
said. The startling news that all
banks through the Country were
closed, came like harbinger of evil,
but when the sun came out for a
short while it seemed a happy sign
that brighter day was before dis

Eastern front until long after the new
hero had departed for the White
House and the old one had gone to

ex-President, although there as six
Presidential widows: Mrs. Harrison,
Mrs. Cleveland (now Mrs. PrestonJ,
Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Mrs. Taft,
Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Coolidge"
Mr.. Farquhar then compared the
vast new structures that have revolu-
tionized the South side of Pennsyl-
vania Avenue with the foclorn section
of the City as he remembered it in
the past, believing that the marvellous
development Of Washington City i'm
the past few years is cause for proper
pride and satisfaction"
A little sketch of Mr. Farquhar
and his forhears show that he was
born in Sandy Spring So years ago
last November, that he is of Scotch
descent, his ancestors coming to
Pennsylvania in 1727. then moving to
Carroll County where they bought a
large estate called ~Kilfadda."
