old CAPITAL Days
Lecture Subject
By Wasbngtonian
Bv Catherine K. Hambiey

The Capital. from the days it was
great Indian metropolis down to
the recent erection of the Jefferson
Memorial, was described and illus
trated with slides yesterday by Mrs.
Walter G. Peter, author of "A Por-
| trait of Old Georgetown" and great
great granddaughter of r Der t
Peter first Mayor of Georgetown.
In a lecture at the Washington
Club, Mrs. Peter, showing prints,
engravings and paintings, recalled
the days when Sailors Oak" oppo-
site Mount Alto, served as a beacon
to mariners sailing the Potomac.
The Rock of Dumbarton. one of
the greatest plantations, was then
owned in feudal style by a Scots
man. In Mrs. Peters opinion, the
landowner named his property
after the Scotch rock on the Clyde
River near Glasgow from where he
came
Reviewing history, she pointed out
that the Federal City, as George
Washington referred to the Capital,
was the result of a compromise. The
powerful Secretary of the Treasury
Alexander Hamilton, wanted it sit
uated in the North, while the Secre-
tary of State, Thomas Jefferson,
wished it built in the South. Wash
ington also predicted, "A century
hence, if the Nation remains unified,
the city will be in magnificence in
ferior to few others in Europe"
One of the paintings shown by
Mrs. Peter depicted the cottage of
Mrs. John Vaness' family. An in
fuential woman of her time, Mrs
| Vaness resided on the present site
of the Pan American Union. There
were engravings shown of the White
House, on which carpenters worked
for 50 day at that time, and of
Government buildings when the
War, Navy and State Departments
were housed in one edifice.
Portraits likewise brought to mind
the era when witty Dolly" Madi-
son was the leader of fashion, and
imperious Kate Chase, after whose
