Ah! Washington, thou once didst guide the helm
And point each danger to our infant realm;
Didst show the gulf where factious tempests sweep,
And the big thunders frolic o'er the deep;
Through the red wave didst lead our bark, nor stood,
Like ancient Moses, the other side the flood.
But thou art gone,—yes, gone, and we deplore
The man, the Washington, we knew before.
But, when thy spirit mounted to the sky,
And scarce beneath thee left a tearless eye,
Tell what Elisha then thy mantle caught,
Warmed with thy virtue, with thy wisdom fraught.
Say, was it Adams? was it he who bare
His country's toils, nor knew a separate care,
Whose bosom heaved indignant as he saw
Columbia groan beneath oppression's law,
Who stood and spurned corruption at his feet,
Firm as "the rock on which the storm shall beat?"
Or was it he whose votaries now disclaim
Thy godlike deeds and sully all thy fame?
Spirit of Washington, oh! grant reply,
And let thy country know thee from the sky.
Break through the clouds, and be thine accents heard,
Accents that oft 'mid war's rude onset cheered.
Thy voice shall hush again our mad alarms,
Lull monster faction with thy potent charms.
And grant to whosoe'er ascends thy seat,
Worth half like thine, and virtues half as great.

Poem by Daniel Webster (1782-1852)

“Glorious indeed has been our Contest: glorious, if we consider the Prize for which we have contended, and glorious in its Issue; but in the midst of our Joys, I hope we shall not forget that, to divine Providence is to be ascribed the Glory and the Praise.” —George Washington, letter to Reverend John Rodgers, June 11, 1783

George Washington's library contains a large collection of sermons that he acquired over his lifetime. Dr. William Linn sent George Washington a copy of his sermon and received this reply from Tobias Lear, his personal secretary: “The President likewise desires you will accept his thanks for the sermon which you had the goodness to send to him on the 18th of July."

Wouldn't this be great English or History curriculum for our public schools today? ~ "The Blessings of America" by William Linn ~ Maybe our kids could develop a hunger for the incredible writings of our founding fathers and be able to read the "Olde English" where hidden treasure is waiting to be discovered.

Life is all about sacrifice. It's the day after Christmas, also known as "Boxing Day" back in England and Canada. Traditionally it's a day to give to others. Learning to deny oneself is one of the greatest lessons that children can be taught. A parent sacrifices for their child. In John 12:24 we read, "unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain."

Years ago, my wife and I desired to find a "working retirement" believing that serving others and honoring God would to be our goal. We sacrificed everything we had to build a replica of George Washington's home here in his namesake state in a setting that was similar to his beloved Mount Vernon. It was to be a B&B inn where people could come and stay. It was "Dedicated to the Glory of God and to the Faith of George Washington" as noted by a bronze plaque placed above the entrance. We also developed a working farm that incorporated ways to let others enjoy the panoramic views and the beauty of "America's Provence." It is now known as George Washington Inn & Estate and has been recognized as the finest B&B inn on the Olympic Peninsula and home of the Northwest Colonial Festival.

Recently, I stepped in to pick up the responsibility of keeping a successful social media platform alive that was fulfilling an important role of educating people on the legacy of our Founding Father, George Washington. Now I am asking for 1,000 patriots to donate $100 each to commission a bronze relief of Arnold Friberg's "The Prayer at Valley Forge" that will be hung on the side of the brick "Texas Gate" gatehouse that's currently under construction here at "Mount Vernon West."

Will you step up and be counted as one of these 1,000 Patriots who wants to advance the important legacy of the Father of our nation? Here's a link to the GoFundMe site.
Your obedient servant,
Dan Abbott (aka George Washington)
