Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Building of a Monument: A History of the Mary Washington Associations and Their Work General Washington had been President four months when his mother died in Fredericksburg, on August 25th, 1789. Robert Lewis, the nephew and private secretary of the General, tells us in his journal that the President did not receive the news of his mother´s death until September 1st. A letter from Colonel Burges Ball, containing the sad news, arrived while he was seated at dinner, enjoying the bright and witty conversation of Baron Von Steuben and Governor St. Clair. Robert Lewis further states, that when he opened the letter, "My uncle immediately retired to his room and remained there some time alone." Alone with the past, with the fond memories of the devoted mother. Did he recall his infancy at Wakefield, his childhood at Pine Grove, and the stern but loving rule of his widowed parent?
