Throughout his life Washington had a very tender spot in his heart for women. At sixteen he writes with all of youth's solemnity of a "Hurt of the heart uncurable. " And from that time forward there is ever some "Faire Mayde" in the story of his life. As a matter of fact, Washington got along with women much better than he did with men; with men he was often diffident and awk- ward, ill concealing his uneasiness behind a forced dignity; but he knew that women admired him and with them he was at... ease. When he made that first western trip of his carrying a message to the French, he turned aside to call on the Indian princess, AKguippa. She was vastly impressed by the tall, handsome young Virginian. He records quaintly in his journal that he presented her with a blanket and a bottle of rum, "which latter was thought the much best present of the two. " The story of his various courtships is written down in his expense account which he kept from boyhood with painstaking care. Such entries as "Treating the ladys, 2 shillings;" "Present for Polly, 5 shillings;" "My share 30 Half-Forgotten Romances of American History of the music at the dance, 3 shillings;" "Lost at loo, 5 shillings, " prove that he was the average Virginian in these respects of his times.
