Tour of Alexandria
Will Put Stress
On History.

ONE of the quaint sights to be seen
~ in Alexandria Saturday when Is
old houses will be opened to the public
for the benefit of the Alexandria Asso-
citation, will be an ancient stage coach
drawn by four horses and accompanied
by outriders in Colonial costume.
The most popular tavern of its day,
noted far and wide to travellers, was
Gadsby's Tavern, where tea will be
served Saturday. The seat of all social
activities of Alexandria. presided over
by famous hosts, it fed and housed
every important person in America
from 1852 for the next 100 years.
One of the most romantic stories
told Of Gadsby's and true one at
that. is the mysterious tale of the
female stranger.
On day in 1916 a ship docked at
the wharf in Alexandria, purported to
have come from the West Indies A
young man and young woman disem-
barked and were conveyed to Gadsby's
Tavern They were English and ap-
peared to be people of culture, rank
and wealth. The young woman was
very ILL., Doctors and nurses were
Immediately sent for, but before being
admitted to the patient they were put
under solemn oath never to reveal
anything that took place in the sick
room. The young woman fingered for
several weeks The man, fairly daft
with anxiety, rarely left her side day
or night. Neither his devotion nor
medical science availed to save the
voman's life. Her disconsolate COM
panion erected a handsome monument
which may be seen today in st. Pauls
Cemetery.
The little room on the second floor
OF Gadsby's Tavern in which the
female stranger died is being restored
by the Children of the American Revo-
luton and will shortly be open to
visitors.
1t is said that before going to Gads-
by's Tavern the female stranger spent
the night at a small tavern on lower
Prince street, thought to be 1913 Prince
street. This house is the interesting
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Ward Brown
AND is unlike anything else in Alex
