The Mount Vernon estate on the Potomac draws visitors who seek the life of George Washington the Father of His Country. The article tours the mansion front and rear, the grounds, the chariot, the tomb, and the relics, ending with a Feb Scribner verse praising the site.
The passage notes Washington's easy going tolerance toward religious disputes. It compares his kindness to Tom Paine's fate, mentions his background in the Established Church, and suggests his broad Christianity aided his success. It questions whether he cherished real disdain for dissent.
Illustration shows Sulgrave Manor in Northamptonshire, the English ancestral home of George Washington. The coat of arms over the doorway is described. No restoration has been attempted, but the house is cared for and protected from wilful destruction.
