the the the FRIDAY MORNING. THE PHILADELPHIA TIMES. FEBRUARY 22, 1895. 5 WASHINGTON'S BIRTHPLACE HISTORIC SPOT LONG NEGLECTED AND ALMOST UNKNOWN. PROPOSED NATIONAL MEMORIAL A Simple Shaft of Gray Granite to Mark the Place Where the Father of His Country Was Born--The Wakefield Estate and Homestead of Washington's Father.

WASHINGTON ERECTED BY THE UNITED STATES ANNOT DUMINI 1895 THE MONUMENT. It is strange that, though the birthday of Washington has been made a national holiday, there are few who know anything about the place where he first saw the light of day, and it is still more strange that the site of this historic mansion should be so neglected that it is now but a vacant feld where the cows graze over, the spot that should be held in reverence by the nation. Recently, however, steps have been taken looking towards a suitable monument to mark the site, and before many months have passed Wakefield, which is the name of the old estate owned by the father of Washington, will have a fine shaft towering to the skies and good roads leading to it. In 1880 Congress made an appropriation of $30.000 to be used by the Secretary of State in purchasing the site of the house in which Washington was born and erecting upon it some memorial of the event. Mr.

Evarts made a personal examination of the farm and bought twenty-one acres at the price of $2,500. But the old burying ground on the place and the site of the mansion itself had been deeded by Lewis Washington to the State of Virginia on condition that it erect A suitable monument. A resolution was then passed by the Virginia Legislature by which all title to the land was conveyed to the United States and a quit claim deed was obtained from all the heirs. The first design for a monument WAS drawn by a Mr. Perkins, of Boston, whose design was a Grecian temple.

owing to a lack of funds these plans were never carried out, though last summer a long wharf with iron piers was placed on the river front. The contract for the monument was signed a few weeks ago and the work will be done by John Crawford Son, of Butfalo, N. Y. As the limit of time allowed is July, 1895, it will likely be in position before the winter comes again. This monument will be a simple shaft of gray granite from the Barre quarry in Vermont, and in appearance will closely resemble the one that stands in the lot south of the White House.

It will be fifty-one feet high, weigh about thirty-tive tons and will cost $11,000. On the base, which is twelve feet square, will be the inscription: WASHINGTON'S BIRTHPLACE. Erected by the United States, 1895. According to the old style of reckoning, Washington was born on the 11th of February, but by the modern calendar it is changed to the 22d of the same month. Wakefield is a farm on the Potomac about ninety miles south of Washington, and the house in which Washington was born stood on an elevated plain commanding a fine view of the river.

The traces of the walls are still visible and show that the mansion was about sixty feet long and thirty wide, while an L-shaped wing jutted out at the rear. The outlines of the quaint, old-fashtoned flower garden and dairy are easily seen through the sward that covers the feld. The Wakefield estate passed into the bands of George's brother, young Augustine, and from him it came into session of his son, and then of his grandson, George Corbin Washington, who sold it to a John Gray, though the site of the old mansion and the family burying ground were reserved to the family. The present owner of the Wakefield estate is al Mr. Wilson, whose wife was a member of the Washington family.

The old mansion house was destroyed some time before the place was sold, for while the property did not pass into the hands of Mr. Gray until 1813. a fire fourteen years before had reduced the house to ashes. This was during the time that George Corbin Washington and his mother occupied it, and the flames broke out on Christmas night, compelling the family to flee across the ice to the house of a neighbor. Mrs.

Washington afterwards built herself a new home about a mile away, calling the place Blenheim. After the sale of Wakefield Mr. Gray none of the Washington family again oecupied the 1 premises, and 1 when strangers went to look upon the estate, a modern residence was built a few hundred yards from the site of the old mansion. This house is now occupied by Mr. Wilson, the present owner and is a fine old Virginia establishment with big gardens, a group of outhouses, stables and servants' quarters.

In front is a large green lawn, huge trees shade the side porches, from which a fine view of the river can be obtained, and all around are evidences of the hospitable spirit for which the old dominion i is so fa12018. Wakefield is an out-of-the-way place, never disturbed by the rush of the locomotive or the clang of the cable cars, but preserving its antique air, undismayed by the march of progress that is rapidly eliminating so many of the old landmarks of Virginia. To reach the place one must take a steamer at the city of Washington, and after a day's trip down the Potomac land at Colonial Beach. From this place the rest of the way may be made either in a small boat one of the country, drawn by a lean guided dilapidated old traps that Wonder, round the by a ragged negro driver. The tripe over this desolate part of the country is a dreary one, particularly at this season of the year, for the roads are made almost impassable by the mud that comes up to the wagon's hub, and the cold wind whistles chilly through the scanty patches of pine and undergrowth that are scattered along the pike.

On the road one passes the birthplace of James Monroe, but there is nothing now to be seen except a cabin, barn and outhouse, for the estate has been cut up into small lots and sold to negroes. In the Wakefield burying ground are still preserved two crumbling gravestones, one over the grave of Jane Butler, the first wife of Washington's father, and the other over that of his cousins who were two little children. The inscriptions are written in quaint old English and are the most interesting relics left on the place. Another relic of Washington with which few are familiar is his will, vhich has been preserved up at Fairfax Court House in the office of the County Clerk for years, and is guarded with such jealous eyes that the people of the town refused to allow it to go to Chicago to be exhibited at the World's Fair. The document is a series of small sheets of paper, sewn together and kept in a wooden box, through whose glass front the writing can be plainly seen.

When the civil war broke out the will was taken to Richmond for safe keeping, but when the enemy raided the city it was thrown into a pile of trash, from which it was rescued by a Northern soldier, who afterwards restored it to the custody of the Clerk of the Fairfax Court. One night a few years ago some thieves broke into the office at Fairfax, the safe was blown open, and though some valuables were stolen, the will was found the the next morning carelessly thrown upon floor in a heap of half papers.

The Honesdale Citizen says the project of dissecting the counties of Wayne, Susquehanna and Lackawanna and carving from portions thereof a new county, with Carbondale the seat is a little joker that "bobs up serenely" every now and then.

Thirty-seven liquor licenses were granted last week in Tioga Venango county's bar association insists upon the removal of Judge Taylor from the bench, only suspending the proceedings to give him an opportunity to resign. The Franklin papers all agree that the charges against the Judge are of the gravest character. He is accused of the most flagrant abuses of his position, and of many crimes against the welfare of society. An investigation by a Legislative committee will naturally bring out all the facts in the case. Tioga county has ten prisoners in the Eastern Penitentiary.

W. S. Sluyter, of North Towanda, has a hen which he thinks has done pretty well on one day's record. Friday last she flew under the barn and when he went to get her he found she had laid an egg, tells the Towanda Argus. Her feet were frozen and he carried her into the cellar where there was a fire.

This was late in the afternoon. Next day he found under the hen two more eggs, one of them well formed and matured and the other in a soft condition. Three eggs in twenty-four hours is a big record. Bloomsburg is to have free mail delivery after next June. There were 73 births in Allentown in January, 34 males and 39 females.

At a meeting of the Board of Directors for the erection new hospital in the lower anthracite region, which will be 10- cated in Pottsville, it was unanimously voted to purchase the Lauer Mansion, including two and a half acres of adjoining land, for $14.000. Since the project has gotten well under way the committee have been exceptionally successful in securing subseribers to the fund which now amounts to many thousands, says the Pottsville Chronicle, the latest subscriber for the maintenance of the hospital being Samuel S.

Groff, of Doylestown, by putting a cloth over a borough water spigot and leaving the water run through it for a night, captured snails, worms and other uncanny creatures. He gave the result of his haul to his fellow members of Council as a forcible argument for flushing the water mains, but without avail, as the borough treasury itself had been flushed too often, says the Doylestown Democrat. Mrs.

Edward Schropp, wife of Superintendent Schropp, of Robert Steel's stock farm, while drawing water from Doylestown mains a day or two ago was terrified to see a live snake, about four inches long, forced from the faucet into the vessel she was filling. The snake belonged to the species known as Tropidonotus sipedon, of the large family of Homalopsidae, very common in that locality. The Gem coal and co*ke plant, near Latrobe, has been purchased from Leonard Keek by Congressman George F. Huff for $53,000, and operations be resumed in a short time. Edinboro is all torn up with apprehension over the report that the normal school, which has engendered so many free-for-all fights and innumerable legal conflicts, is to be moved to Meadville.

A bill has been introduced in the State Legislature to reorganize the Meadville Normal School as the School of the Twelfth Normal District, and the passage or defeat of that bill means much to Edinboro. At present the Meadville School is one only in name. It has no patronage and a capital of $10,000. This movement to have the school changed is a strike at the Edinboro School pure and simple, says the Erie Times, and the first object will be to stop any appropriation to the Erie county institution. It has been said that ultimately the school will capture the whole of Allegheny College and chat institution would then cease to be what it has been for more than half a century, the great Methodist educational institution of Pennsylvania.

The fact that Senator Andrews is a leader of the Senate and his forces are in control of the House gives some weight to the measure. The plans of the Meadville people are to build up the largest and best State Normal School in Pennsylvania. The Dickson Locomotive Works in Scranton are driven with business, having a large number of orders for new engines and boilers. Mrs. Nettie Shank, who has passed her seventieth birthday, is confined to the residence of her daughter, Miss Nettie Shank, Norristown, suffering from badly frozen feet and hands, the result of walking from Zieglerville to Norristown, a distance of seventeen miles.

During the year 198 patients were treated in the State Cottage Hospital at Connellsville, and twenty-three cases proved fatal. Since the opening of the hospital 541 patients have been treated.
