he was a fellow at mount vernon. he is currently doing two things that i'm particularly proud of, he's teaching a course on american university on white house history. to our knowledge, this is the first time this has ever been done anywhere. and we hope to broaden that beyond just american universities so that classrooms across the country can join virtually and we can expand that impact. but it's really a cutting edge first mover opportunity that we're very proud of. he's also working on his next book which will be published by the white house historical association instead of kansas university press. he will publish his next book which is the renovation of the white house undertaken by president theodore roos sflelt the early 20th century. this podium will be moved away from the stage so everyone can have their view. and he and i will have a conversation, a few probing questions that i about his book. and then we'll open the floor to questions. and then you're all invited to join us in the courtyard for some refre

how did the people come to mount vernon? was there a service at mount vernon? and did faith play a role in that ceremony? >> absolutely. so per washington's instructions he wanted it to be laid out three days to insure that he was three dead, which was common at time. there was a lot of americans had this fear that they will be buried alive. so one of the things they would tell people make sure i've been expired for some time. so washington was laid out in the new room at mount vernon. he was dressed in great close, put out on the portico overlooking the river. and that's where the funeral would have taken place. it was a private funeral. but, they also sort of expect that it wouldn't be that private, that citizens would catch wind of it, citizens from the national government, alexandria, and pretty soon, from the accounts that i've seen, we're talk about hundreds of people i think washington even said in private, in a private manner. so, not all of this will are closely adhere to. some of the pallbearers were free masons but we were directors at some of the lo

but they are doing it now on behalf of the mount vernon ladies association at mount vernon. you can see behind him a series of walking sticks. they would have been the primary storytellers. but they would have also been selling items from the estate. time that we have congress and the virginia general a simile arguing and bickering about where washington should be buried -- and a virginia general assembly arguing about where washington should be buried, we have storytellers delivering different aspects of the washington experience. we also have poets and artists sharing pieces of washington lord through poetry, biography-- through poetry, biography or visual artwork. they play an important part because most americans will not get to mount vernon in the 19th century. so they rely on visuals to help fill in the gaps about what they know about washington. this would be his adopted grandson, george washington custis who became a washington publicist and spokesperson. he gave speeches and traveled the country and wrote plays that built up his adopted grandfather's legacy. most im

items taken from not vernon -- mount vernon are considered relics. certainly for americans, who essentially had to invent the country and invent the government to go with the country, washington was the natural selection. because of this visitor traffic to mount vernon, we hear the accounts of these people stripping trees of their branches or pulling off the andes of a limited tree there was one example where a man came and dug up three flower barrels. what sounds a little bit strange to us actually happened quite more often in the 19th century. this is a piece of the coffin fragments. she was taken out of and put into a new coffin. in 1831.ved there that, it goes to show you these bits and pieces that we are notday, either they something that most people would save or they are not sure where they came from. these are the kinds of things to hold onto. this is actually a close-up shot. this was actually done by a mason. john struthers was a marble basin and offered to build a marble sarcophagus and lawrence lewis took him up on the offer. strickland d

mount vernon was preserved by women. during the civil war, sarah tracy was the secretary for mount vernon, and she helped preserve this home during the war. sarah tracy made sure that soldiers on either side of the war were able to come in and visit washington's home. this was especially important because both sides, the confederacy and the union, saw washington is the founder of their country. tracy did have stipulations for soldiers that would come into mount vernon. they had to be unarmed, and they also could not be wearing their uniforms. they would find any means to cover up, whether in shawls or different clothing. so, sarah tracy kept money in the herbert bank, that was to be used to purchase mount vernon from the washington family, but but during the war, union troops decided that they wanted that money for themselves. sarah tracy refused and said she would move the money into riggs bank in washington, d.c., but she had to do this covertly. she put the money in the bottom of the basket and put eggs on top of the

in fact, there's still a distillery on the mount vernon today. he was known to have a cocktail although there was no record of him of drinking to drunkenness although his brother samuel. there's some scant evidence that his brother samuel had a drinking problem, but there was no temperance of movement in that air whatsoever. there's no evidence either that mary ever took what they used to call her spirits that ever had a drink or a high ball or cocktail or anything like that. what were the other questions? >> think those two will be enough for that one. >> okay. so let's talk to steve who called from webster, massachusetts. steve, good morning. >> yes, good morning. mr. shirley, first in your research, i am just curious did you ever come across anything that supports the cherry tree story or whatever it is? >> no. no. go ahead. >> and they also had a second question. i'd like you to enlighten us a little bit not only on the whiskey rebellion. i'm a student somewhat of che's rebellion, and to my understanding president wash would be had a bit of t
