"God Will Take Care of You" was then sung, folowed by sen tence prayers and "I Need Thee Every Hour."

ITS."., lie writes that u!toi:t 11 o'clock, alter they were in lied. Mr. Iiiitiiliiii uud his three ynuii.,' men assistant arrived, coming by boat "rum Alexandria. "During the sculptor's two weeks' stay Washing!.

Ie also snbniittcJ to the unpleasant op eration of having a life mask made of ids features in order to insure a per fect likeness. In the presence of Mr. Madison exact measurements of his figure were made and full details of his uniform were noted to enable the sculptor to complete his work. "The day bust was then left by the sculptor at Mount Vernon, where It Is one of the most highly valued of nil of Mount Vernon's relics of the Father of His Country. I!ut the life mask and molds of the bust Houdon himself took to Paris, not trusting them to the hands of his assistant, 'for,' said he, 'If they are lost iu the ocean I am de termined to perish with them.' "One day during his stay at Mount Vernon .Washington was looking at some fine horses with a view to their purchase, but the high price asked by the groom in charge so incensed him that the man was promptly sent away. Qoudon, who witnessed the transoc- tlno, saw with an artist's eye in Wash ington's pose and expression the very thing needed for his statue and made memorandum of It. On Oct. 19 Wash ington writes: 'Mr. Houdon, having finished the business which brought him hither, went up Monday with Ills people, work and Implements In niy barge to Alexandria to take passage iu, the stage for Philadelphia next morn ing." "The statue, according to agreement, was to be finished in three years, but was not completed until 17S9.
