BUTT AND MILLET are
honored together with a foun-
tain which bears this unex-
planatory inscription:
In memory of Francis
David Millet (1846-1912) and
Archibald Willingham Butt
(1868-1912). this monument
has been erected by their
friends with the sanction of
Congress
This memorial is a simple
shaft rising from a basin, and
the whole is all but hidden
in summer by the trees which
surround it. Millet, it is
known, was a drummer boy in
the Civil War, but this is not
the reason for the memorial.
The clue is in the dates of
their death.
Andrew Jackson Downing's
home was on the Hudson
River. He met his death on
that river while trying to save
other passengers when the
steamer Henry Clay caught
fire.
But what was his claim to
Washington fame = great
enough at the time to merit
an urn on a granite shaft,
inclosed by a round iron
picket fence?
John Witherspoon stands
firmly, in Colonial costume, on
a solid base. He has had to
step aside only once in his
long tenure among Washing
ton statuary-when the street
where he resides was widened,
and the statue moved six feet
back.
But who today knows the
feats of Hahnemann, Gross,
Henry, Millet, Butt, Wither-
spoon or Pushmataha?
It's doubtful if the average
Washingtonian knows where
the monuments are.
