Washington Had
Vision of War
George Allen of Granite street sub
mitted the . following article to the
Tidings, which was taken from an old
scrap book, and indicates that George
Washington hud a vision of the great
European war1, as involving America
but leaving her victorious. This story
is said to have been told by Anton
Sherman, a nonagenarian, who had
received the facts from Washington's
own lips:
"This afternoon 1 sat at my writ
ing desk busy with some wrltlug- On
a sudden, looking up from my work,
I saw standing opposite to me a beau
tiful woman. I was very much sur
prised and annoyed nt this Intrusion,
because I had given strict orders that
nobody should disturb mo. I could
not at ones find words to Inquire the
occasion of this unexpected visit. Af
ter a little I put twice, thrice and a
fourth time a question, but received
no answer. Then she fixed her eyes
full upon me, and I felt a peculiar
sensation over my mind and body. I
would ha arisen, but the steady
gaze of my mysterious visitor made
me unable. I tried again to address
her, but my tongue was locked. An
unknown, mystorious, Irresistible
power held me captive. I could do
nothing but look with a steady gaze
at the intruder. By and by, a soft,
resplendent lipht filled the room and
the beautiful figure itself became
more shining and clear. I had now
the numb sensation of a dying man.
I could not move, although I remem
ber that I never took my eyes from
the shining figure.
"Then I heard a voice: 'Son of
the Republic, look up and learn'.' At
the same time the' figure stretched
looked at this scene, I beheld a bright
angel upon whose brow a golden
crown, upon which was written the
word 'Union.' In his band he held
the flag of America; anon he planted
it between the two hostile armies, ex
claiming in trumpet tones, 'Consider,
ye are brothers! ' In an instant the
armies threw away their weapons and
became friends. -
"And now I beheld that villages,
towns and fields began to increase in
number and size until the land bore
the fruits of peace and plenty from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, and the
people grew in number like the stars
of the firmament and as the sands on
the seashore,.
"Again I heard the voice: 'Son of
the Republic, the end of a century
draws near; look up and learn.' Then
the dark angel took up a trumpet and
putting it in his mouth blew three
long blasts, and again began dipping
water out of the sea with his hands,
scattering it this time over Europe,
Asia and Africa. My eyeB now saw a
fearful scene. Out of each of these
continents there arose dark, lowering
clouds, gradually uniting into one
black compact mass, through which
ever and anon there shot blinding
flashes of deep red light. I saw hosts
of armed men. They marched over
the land and sailed across the ocean
to America, which was overhung withij
the clouds; and I saw that those for
eign armies laid waste the land and
burned up cities and villages. And
while I heard the thunder of cannons
and the clashing of swords, the shout
ing and woeful cries of these millions
in deadly battle, again there came
the mysterious voice: 'Son of the
Republic, look up and learn!'
"Again the dark angel took up
the trumpet and blew a loud, fearful
blast. Suddenly a light appeared,
driving back the dark clouds which
hung over America, and the bright
angel again was seen with the glori
ous crown having written upon It the
word 'Union,' bearing the American
banner in one hand and a sword in
the other. With the bright angel
there descended from heaven a legion
of glorified spirits which speedily
took side with the American people,
whd, being nearly overcome, took
fresh courage and rallied again In un
broken lines of battle. Again above
the fearful tumult of war I heard the
mysterious voice: 'Son of the Repub
lic, look up and learn, After the
sound of the voice had died away the
dark angel for the last time appeared,
drawing the water out of the sea and
scatterinj it this time over America,
when presently the dark clouds rolled
away, speeding before them the hos
tile armies they had brought, leaving
the Americans masters of the field.
"And now I saw villages and cities
arise from their ashes, while the glor
ified angel planted the Amer'can flag
in the midst of the peo;- and cried
with a loud voice:-; 'As bng as the

again the melodious voice, 'Son of the
Republic, look up and learn.'
"And now I beheld a figure of an
angel hovering over the sea between
Europe and America. She was dip
ping with both hands the water out
of the ocean and throwing it with the
right hand over America and with
the left hand over Europe. Soon
there arose donse banks of black
clouds from these two parts of the
world, which met and merged in the
midst of the ocean. There they hung
for a while and began moving bver
the American continent. Flashes of
vivid lightning darted through the
dark clouds, and I heard the groans
and lamentations of the American
people.
"Again the angel began dipping the
water out of the ocean, throwing it
about as before.' The black clouds
then rolled eastward and sank into
the sea. The third time I heard the
voice: 'Son of the Republic, the end
of a century is near at hand look
up and learn!'
"After this the dark angel form
turned herself toward the south, and
out of America I saw a gloomy appa
rition arise and make toward -our
country. It moved slowly and heav
ily over cities and countries. The
population arose in arms and in two
mighty hosts formed ln battle array,
one force against the other,. While I

written upon it, and placed it be
neath the flag of America, and all'
the people fell upon their knees and
cried, 'Amen.' t
"The vision now began gradually
to disappear, and I saw at last only
the mysterious woman before me In
my room, and heard the voice again:
'Son of the Republic what you have
seen is to be explained as follows:
Three dangers will threaten the life
of this new republic; the third will
be the greatest. When that will have
been overcome, the whole world can
not put down the republia. All its
people shall learn to serve their God,
their country and the 'Union.' WithJ
these words she vanished, and I rose
from my chair fully convinced that
the birth and progress of the republic
of the United States had been re
vealed to me."
"This vision," said Mr. Sherman.
"I hoard myself related from the lips
of General Washington."
The work of classifying the men
registered under the war census will
commence December 15, 1917.' This
work will be done by the local board
for Jackson county, consisting of
Sheriff Jennings, County Clerk Gard
ner and County Physician Malmgfen.
The sheriff's office is ln receipt of
the following request from the War
Department:
"It Is desired that you cause the
broadest and most extensive and con
tinuous possible publicity to be given
through your newspapers, and by all
other possible means of learning, to
'J all registrants who may have changed
their places of abode and address, to
communicate Immediately with their
local board and to furnish thelr'pres
ent addresses so that the question
naire will reach such registrants
without dela Registrants are bound
by law to keep themselves advised of
all proceedings in respect of them
and failure to do so may result In
their losing right to claim exemption
or discharges"
Failure to receive questionnaire
does not excise a registrant from an;
swerlng within the allotted time, and
as this time is very short, the sheriff
requests that all registrants who have
changed their address since June 4,
1917, notify the office at once, in
order that thay may protect them
selves from Immediate draft.
