66TNHE Merchant Prince of Georgetown"
l. built this late Georgian brick man
sion in 1900. His name was Washington
Bowie. He was a Governor Of Maryland
and a godSon of George Washington. He
lost his wealth when his merchant ships
were rnided on the high seas, and he sold
his city mansion in 1905 and retired to
Montgomery County.
Washington planner Pierre LEnfant
was a frequent visitor and Is believed to
have planned the garden. Seedlings and
cuttings from Mount Vernon were planted
in the garden by Colonel Hollingsworth,
curator at the old Virginia estate and owner
at one time of the Bowie House. Today the
walks and terraces are beautified by old
lockwood and new azaleaS. A heart-Shaped
garden of old roses is being brought back
to a flouriShing state.
The old-time formal approach, or car
riage entrance, was through the garden to
the south front, with its columned porch
and lead glass fan over the door. A wide

central hall runs through to the north

companying picture.
There are three parlorS with unusually
beautiful plaster friezes and cornices and
old mantels Over one of the mantelS hangs
a portrait of John Sewer, hero Of Kings
Mountain and first Governor Of Tennessee,
to whom this house Is a memorial. The
mansion was given to the present owners
by the late Mrs. John Sewer, whose husband
was a great grandson of the Revolutionary
War hero.
In 1857, the house and garden were re-
stored and a large addition was made to
convert the old single-family dwelling to
home for 50-some ladies and gentlemen.
The new building, artfully designed by the
late Horace Peaslee and Frank Cole to be in
harmony with the original mansion, won a
Board of Trade architectural merit award
in 1857.
1t is now the Episcopal Church Home.
Where Is this house? See below.
