“ General Washington Is a tall, well-made man,” 
sahl a writer In lias. " rather large-boned, and 
has a tolerably genteel address. His features arc 
manly and bold, his eyes of a bluish east and very 
lively; his hair a deep brown, hts face rather 
long and marked with the small-pox; hlscomplex- 
lon sunburnt and without much color, and his 
countenance sensible, composed end thoughtful: 
there is a remarkable air of dtguity about him, 
with a striking degree of gracefulness; candor, 
sincerity, affabUlty and simplicity seem to be 
the striking features ot his character.”
