wants people to shop in and see
1t. He wants to make it a me-
mortal to John Hanson, who is
often termed first" President
Of the United States and who is
believed to be buried on the
place. Mr.. Maloof is filing the
big house, which has 40 rooms,
with his vast accumulation of
antiques and art hitherto stored
In warehouses.
To get to the house you take
the South Capitol Street bridge,
past Boiling Field, cross the Dis
trict line on South Capitol street
which becomes the Indian Head
highway and turn to the right
when you get to the top of the
hill. Rosecroft Farm and race
track is to the left. Your cor
respondent and a photographer
visited the place the other day at
Mr.. Maloof's invitation.
Name of Manor House
Oxon Hill was the name of the
manor house of the Addison
family. It was burned in 1895.
Sumner Welles gave the name to-
the country house he built near
the site of the Colonial mansion
in 1929. Oxon Hill Is also the
name Of the village and new high
school on the other side Of the
highway.
The WelleS house still has an
air of grandeur about it, one of
the finest homes in the Washing
ton area. But 1t lacks the corps
Of gardeners who used to mani
cure the edge of every walk
during Mr.. Welles' ownership.
It was said that its upkeep at
that time cost $45.000 q year.
We were ushered through the
house and seated on the wide ter
race enjoying the river view
when our host appeared. He is a
man of medium height with a
tendency to plumpness. who
holds his broad shoulders thrown
back in a manner that made him
look almost jaunty in his light
slacks and blue jacket. His re-
ceding hair is combed straight
back over a high dome and he
has a long Levantine nose which
does not detract from his ap-
pearance. Mr.. Maloof was born
in Boston of Lebanese parents
and was educated, in part, at the
American University at Beirut
In Lebanon. We soon found that,
while affable, Mr.. Maloof is a
very serious man.
What He Plans to Do
Once seated, he said:
Il want this to be a place
where a mother can bring her
children and they will get the
feeling Of our wonderful found
ing fathers.
