CENTENNIftL OF WASHINGTON'S
DEATH.

MEN."
Horn February 22, 1732, and
Died December 14, 1799.
Had Washington been living
on the 14th of December, 1899,
under the advanced Btate of medical
science he would have escaped
the lamentable mistake which cut
him flndpn rho 1.1?h n-.-~~.i- ?

1799, before he had reached the
allotted threescore and ten. Indeed.
with his excellent health,
which remained with him up to
within four days of his death
Washington, the m *n of tranquil
mind and pure habits, might have
passed the fourscore mark at
least.
The death of Washington was
a surprise to the world, as the cir
cn-mstancea of it are a surprise to
those who learn them for the first
time in these days of marvelous
medical skill. As before stated,
he was in the best of health, and
while riding over bis estate at
Mount Vernon on the 12th of
December he was exposed to a
sudden storm of rain and sleet.

year changes of temperature are

developed sore throat and ague.
Hie lifelong family physician was
summoned at once, and as he got
no better two other doctors were
called in consultation on the 14th.
Washington's ailment was the
disease now called laryngitis, and
, from the descriptions handed
I down it need not necessarily
> have proved fatal. The symptoms
were those of croup, but be made
| himself audible up to the very
, last. According to the views of
' the science today, the doctors
. bled Washington to death. His
1 system, already depleted by the
r / ?? - ?
lever irom wnich He had sutlered
48 hours, was subjected to bleed
ingp, the last time on the day he
died.
Death came between 10 aud 11
o'clock. At 4 o'clock on that day
i Washington seemed to know his
danger, for he asked Mrs. Wash'
ington to fetch from his study
two papers, which proved to be
two wills. One he said she might
destroy, as the other superseded
it. It was burned in his presence,
and the other was given to his
wife. At G o'clock Washington
, said to the three physicians who
were present: "I feel myself got
ing. I thank you for your atteni
tions, but I pray you take no i
1 more trouble about me."

faithful secretary, Mr. Lear, some
directions about his private papers
and his flineral. When the
secretary told him that he had
understood the directions, Wash
ington said, "It is well." These
were Washington's last words.
Washington's funeral and final
entombment took place on the'
18th ot December, and the sim 1 _
plicity of the obsequies were
marvelous, consideriug the emi ^

The body lay instate in a plain ^
mahogany coflin in the drawing j
room but for a short time only,
as the physicians decided that, .
owing to the nature of the disease, *
it would not be proper to d- fer o
interment. The immediate ceremonies
are described as follows

"The people began to collect at
11 o'clock : but. owing to a delay
of the military, the time for the
procession was postponed until 3 ^
o'clock. The coffined body of the
illustrious patriot, lay meanwhile ^

and 4 o'clock the procession
moved, and at the same time ^
minute guns were fired from the
a
schooner anchored in the Potomac.
The proCessiou moved out
through the gate at the left wing P
of the house and proceeded round y
in front of the lawn and down to (
the vault, on the right wing of
the house.
"When the body arrived near
the vault, at the bottom of the
p
lawn, on the high bank of the
Potomac, the calalry halted. The c
infantr- moved forward and

brethren and citizens descended jj
to the vault, end the funeral ser- .
vices of the church were read by

the Rev. Mr. Davis lie also proo

Masons then performed their
peculiar ceremonies, and the body |
was deposited in the vault. Three
general discharges of arms were
given by the infantry and the ^
cavalry, and 11 pieces of artillery,
which were ranged back of the

vault and simultaneously disR1
eharged, paid the last tribute to r

been able to cure in all its stages, and j b
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is .
the only positive cure knov n to the

constitutional disease, requires a con- j
stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct- w
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces ~"
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature ^
in doing its work. The proprietors

(ingress reassembled, a message
rom President Adams arrived
nnouncing that information of
Washington's death had been
ommunicated through his secre
iry. The resolutions, which had
en prepared by (General Henry
ee, were then read.
The army and navv were or
ered to wear mourning, and a
uneral was arranged in memory
f Washington December 20. The
eople of the country were re
ommended to wear crape for 30
ays. General L e pronounced
3e funeral oration, and it was
len that he u-ed the famous
hrase, "first in war, first in
eace, and first in the hearts of
is countrymen."
Both houses of congress assem
led in the German Lutherian
buich to listen 10 the oration,
it the next session congress re
olved "that it be recommended
d the people of the United States
o assemble on the 22d of Febru
ry next, in such numbers and
launer as may be convenient,
ublicly to testify their grief for
he death of Gerneral George
Vashington by suitable eulogies,
rations aud discourses aud by
ublic Dravers." Thus the firot
ational celebration of Washingon'a
birthday was an occasion of
rofouud mourning.
When Washington died, the
ountry was at peace. The last
rarcloud had disappeared shortV
before, the imbroglio with
ranee, and the ceremonies of
istalling Napoleon as first connl
were postponed for a period
f mourning for the memory of
Washington. The commander of
tie British fleet ordered every
hip to lower her flag at half
last.
At home many of Washington's
hief contemporaries in thestrugle
for independence had precedd
hini to the grave. Out of 50
igners of the declaration but 19
urvived. Of the generals all but
