Considering the miles covered and the number of persons carried, he estimates that the operation of motor ‘buses is from four to eight and one-half times as safe as the operation of street railway lines, At a second’s notice a motor ‘bus can change both its speed and its direction. A trolley car can change only its speed. Gf "buses ply to and fro every hour. “Now that, to be civilized, let the ’bus come into its own in New York. op DID IT? WE THINK IT DID.

Miss Cary was deaf to his vows and married an- other man. Next came his love episode with Mary Phillipse of Yonkers—a romance already described in this series. But from the moment he met Martha Custis he had eyes for no other woman. | Martha was the daughter of a rich Virginian named Dandridge. seventeen she married Col. Daniel Parke Custis, who died a few years afte ward, leaving her with three children and a comfortable fortune. Washington, you will remember, had been riding in haste to Willieme- persuaded him to die- burg with important despatches when Chamberla; mount for dinner. He ordered his servant to bi in an hour. The servant was ready at the hour's end, but his master was not. Washington, for once in his life, turned his back on duty. still talking, entranced, with Martha Custis, when the horses appeared. Ordering them taken back to the stable, he spent the whole afternoon and evening with Mrs. Custis and did not set out again on hie journey to | Williamsburg until next day. As soon as he could spare a day from his army duties, Washington gal- loped off to Mrs. Custis's home, which, oddly enough, was known as "The White House.” There, r a whirlwind courtship, he won her promise to marry him. One letter, written during the brief engagement, is still preserved. It te dated July 20, 1768, and was sent from the militia camp where Washington on active duty. In this stilted but decidedly fervent love letter, the young Colonel wrote: “I embrace this opportunity to send a few words to one whose life is now inseparable from mine. Since that happy hour when we made our pledges to each other my thoughts have been ele BENITO constantly going to you as to another self.” Soldiers On Jan. 6, 1759, Washington and Martha were Love Letter. married. He resigned his commission in the British army and prepared to spend the rest of his days as a gentleman farmer, with Martha, at his beloved Mount Vernon; not guessing what wonderful destiny was yet in store for him. At the wedding the bridegroom wore sult of blue and silver, trimmed with scarlet, and with gold buckles at the knees and on the shoes. He was the handsomest of many handsome men there.” From the day of their first meeting to the day of the husband's death the couple were devoted to each other. When Washington died a locket was found on his breast, suspended from around his neck by a tiny gold chain. This locket contained Martha's picture; given him by her during their en- |gagement.
