unlike that hostile submarine.
Redoubling his efforts at COM
pleting tests and drawings, the one
time shipping magnate put the final
touches on his new-style ifeboat,
which he believes will reduce IA
talities at sea to a minimum. He
then headed for Washington.
Last week he spent some time
with Government officials here, out
lining the designs possibilities in
both war and peace times. He is
now ready to make formal appli-
cation for patents.
Mr.. Hyland is not just another
inventor who has done his work
solely on paper. He is remembered
by shipping figures as the man
whose safety devices during the last
World War were employed by al
lied and neutral shipping. includ-
ing the United States Navy and
the Shipping Board. The Hyland
lifeboat-savers are used with all
present hfeboat units, and the Hy-
land skates and skids. to facilitate
and expedite launchings. were

Improved Type.
The very newest lifeboat, repre-
senting more than 20 years work
he maintains is 95 per cent faster
to launch than the present type
and can be put over by one man
Regardless of the list or the fore
and aft angle Of a stricken vessel,
his boat will remain on an even
keel while being lowered over the
side.
The whole thing might be called
a 'hfeboat on Wheels wheels that
start it from an upside-down posi-
ton inboard. that carry it clear of
the ships sides and keep it from
upsetting on lowering and that act
as propulsion when cast adrift.
This and earlier ventures in the
field are products of long study
based on experience. Il like to work
from actual experience" he'll tell
you.
Experience is what he has had,
beginning at the age of II. when
he went to work on small freighters
on the Great Lakes. There was a
spell when he did construction work
for railroads. Later, he built and
operated his own logging camps,
shipping over 10000 carloads of lum-
ber each year. Then he turned to
shipping and designed and built his
own ships. barges and docks. At one
time he was carrying more than ESQ.,
600 passengers on the lakes. It was
q full life he lived.
Before he retired from the busi-
ness he had had one of his own
passenger ships destroyed by fire,
another sunk by ice and a third
badly crippled by a storm. Yet he
has never lost life with any Of his
own lifeboat units.
Use of ifeboats became almost
daily calisthenics with the men who
towed huge "cribs" of timber across
the frequently treacherous lakes.
Mr.. Hyland recalls passage towing
logs to Vancouver, British Colum-
bia, that rivaled a trip around Cape
Horn.
When practically in sight of port,
they were blown to sea in q gale
It was nearly three weeks before
they docked with their gangling
cargo.
When logs went adrift from their

Light Horse Harry Lees
Immortal Words.
Some time ago We had the pleas
ure Of reading these letters and had
photographs made of them. They
are no longer on exhibition but
are kept in the history files Of the
museum. In this collection is q
letter from Theodore Sedgwick,
bearing date January II, 1900, in
which he speaks of sending q copy
of the Grafton pronounced before
both houses Of the Congress, De-
cember is, 1779, by Maj. Gen. Henry
Lee at the Lutheran Church, in
Fourth street above Arch, Phila-
delphia. 1t was in this address that
Lee uttered the undying words,
First in war, first in peace and first
in the hearts of his countrymen." I"
1t is also here that Lee so laconical-
ly describes the cold which caused
Washington's death: "Inconvenient
on Friday, oppressive on Saturday
and defying every medical inter-
position, before the morning of Sun
day put an end to the best of men,"
Lee was special favorite of the
first President from boyhood, and
was a son OF the lady who was said
to have been the "lowland beauty"
who captivated Washington's youth
full fancy and to whom he sent ef-
fusions Of the tenderest sort.
Knox Letter
Is Classic.
The Knox letter is almost a classic
in the delicacy of the sentiments
expressed: "Madam-With the deep
est sorrow I mingle my tears with
yours, on your recent af1liction. Poor
human nature in its best condition
to be thus the prey of the unrelent-
ing monster, death! But to
him who is gone verify believe that
death was the key which opened
treasures and bliss indescribable.
The Hamilton letter is expressed
with that tactful grace for which
he was noted. The letter from young
George Washington Lafayette, who
had spent some time at Mount Ver-
non with the family, is full of afIec-
tiqnate gratitude and memories of
the President.
In the 18th century expressions of
sympathy were not written on visit
ing cards or dainty notepaper redo
lent Of the inlaid writing desk in
madam's boudoir, but were sub
stantial epistles couched in most
dignified terms. not only expressing
sympathy for the bereaved one, but
also enumerating the virtues and
graces Of the departed, and closing
usually with the comforting assur-
ance that the loved one had passed
to land of eternal bliss.

Many Alterations
Are Made to Residence.
Many alterations were made to
the house when the Panama gov
ernment purchased it for It's Lega-
ton, the driveway and porte cochere
on the Eighteenth street side of the
house being one of the important
changes. This is the entrance to
the chancery. at 1885 Eighteenth
street. The Legation faces three
streets, Eighteenth and @ streets
and New Hampshire avenue and is
we'll adapted to entertainments of
an Ambassador.
The present Minister and his
family lived in a hotel for several
months after their arrival in WASH
ington before moving into the Lega-
ton. During those months extensive
redecorating was done, as we'll as
refurnishing, following the taste OF
Sonora de Boyd. The two spacious
drawing rooms are furnished after
the mode Of Louis XVI and the COM
modious dining room has hangings
in deep rich red particularly at
tractive with the mahogany furni-
ture. There also is a less formal
room in Oriental appointments.
The house was purchased during
the last regime of Senor DR.. Ricardo
j. Alfaro as Minister, who repre-
sented his government in this Capt.
tai twice. serving as President of
his country between the two ap-
pointments. Senor and Sonora de
Alfaro have purchased a house in
Washington and are remaining here,
as their son. DR.. Victor Alfaro, is a
practicing physician in the city.

Rare Peter Collection
In National Museum.
Mr.. Walter Peter has generously
lent the chef doeuvres of his family
heirlooms to the National Museum,
where they can be enjoyed by all
the people. These heirlooms de-
scended to Mr.. Peter through his
grandmother, Mrs. Beverly Kennon
of Tudor Place, Georgetown, a
great-granddaughter of Martha
Washington and the daughter Of
Thomas Peter. the much beloved
and highly esteemed friend of Gen.
Washington.
That Martha, in spite of her prac-
tical, houseWifely mind-she was
neither a great reader nor stu
dent, possessing only the lighter ac-
complishments of the women of her
class-had great deal of sentiment
and was very much in love with
George. is shown by small gold
locket in the Peters collection, which
contains a lock of the first Presi-
dents hair woven into a design
showing his coat of arms. She al
ways wore this on her watch chain
Near this is much larger gold
locket with rope border containing
a lock of the generals hair when
he was younger as it has sandy
color.
Another charming relic is a watch
presented by the general to his wife,
and worn by her for many years.
1t is large watch such as the
women of the period carried and
has a lovely blue enameled case in
set with an artistic little miniature
surrounded by pearls. This watch is
unique in that it has an extra face
the general had practical mind.
It seems that this watch was later
presented to Mrs. Washington's
granddaughter, Mrs. Thomas Peter,
in exchange for a timepiece pre-
sented by Gen. Washington to Mrs.
Peter, who desired to possess the
watch owned by her grandmother.
There Is a charming large minia-
ture portrait of Mrs. Washington,
done in oil on wood by Trumbull:
some ivory chessmen {. gold band
china made in France and used by
Washington in the latter part of the
18TH century :. ladder-bac
chair which was used by President
Washington when the executive
mansion was in New York, and later
IN Philadelphia :. and a fascinat-
ing French dressing table for a lit
tie girl which was presented to
Martha Custis-Mrs. Thomas Peter
by Gen. Lafayette.

Letters of Coincidence.

TO the museum small collection of
Martha Washington letters from in

the widow of the first President of
the United States. They were writ

de Lafayette, and others whose
public careers were closely inter-
woven with that of Gen. Washing
