The man whom the king had refused a commission won a few short years later a war from the king and deprived him of considerable revenue and pride. When the war was over, you must have felt as though a great load had been lifted from your shouldersg and then, after all your work, you saw that the nation was not yet formed. With strength and strategy you had freed a land from enemies only to discover that the type of government which had so badly supported you during the war could not support the people in peace either. At the Constitutional Convention you were elected the presiding oflicer. For three long months the fate of a nation-to-be ebbed and flowed around your chair. There were those who wanted a king, others who desired a republic, and even those present who today would be known as com- munists, but finally they struck a balance and an immortal Constitution was born. You went home. You must have thought that at last you could have a little peace, and then you heard the news. Up and down the newly born states it was unani- mously agreed that the first president must be none other than George Washington. There was nothing for you to do but answer the call. All your life you had answered calls, and this was not the time to stop. Eight long years more of public criticism, adulation and praise faced you. For eight years you fought, not a war but a battle to unite the east, the west, the north, and the south, and you succeeded. The nation that stands as the greatest monument to your memory was at last firmly set upon its foundations. And now, the irony of it, you returned home for what was to be the last time because you were to die. December 14, 1799, at 11 o'clock, in the eve- ning of the day and of your life, you died. You were buried in a simple vault within sight of the house that had been your home. The world paused to bow its head in grief to you, and the nation built monuments by its progress and success. This year the nation paused again in commemoration of the two-hundredth anniversary of your birthday. Z
