Church architecture. The Mono
cacy Cemetery at Beallsville is the
site of a Chapel Of Ease built over

section as Monocacy Chapel of
Ease in what was then Prince
Georges Parish. During the War
Between the States the Chapel was
burned by Northern troops, the
claim being paid later by the US.
Government. In 1915 the United
Daughters of the Confederacy
built a Chapel here in memory Of
their heroic dead. Among the many
interesting gravestones in the Gem
etery is that Of the Rev. 7. Dade
who preached George Washington's
funeral sermon.
The homes to be exhibited are Of
all types-from the first house
built in POolesviIle by John Poole
as an "ordinary" or travellers inn,
where tired horseback riders slept
several to a bed or rolled up in
blankets on the floor, TO Manor
houses where the planter lived
graciously with his large family,
ordering, from England, his house
furnishings and china, as well as
silk dresses for his wife and daugh-
tiers. One house contains some fine
antique furniture and family por-
traits brought from an old planta-
ton.
Members of the United Daugh-
tiers Of the Confederacy, the OAR,
the Historical Societies, as well as
individuals are urged by the com
mittee TO visit these homes on June
