It is but proper here to explain that there have been various accounts of Washington's visit to Bethlehem. By one it has been said that he made two visits to that place, the first having been in 1778. On the contrary, Mr. Martin, In his Historical Sketch of Bethlehem in Pennsylvania, tells us. "An old Sister, writing of Revolutionary times, says: 'General Washington visited Bethlehem but once: he intended coming a second time, but did not do so.'" From an examination of the different accounts, and of the entries recorded in the old Bethlehem diary, it seem most probable that he was there but once, viz., Sept. 25, 1782. All the accounts agree that, on leaving Bethlehem, he passed onto Easton and thence through New Jersey, to his headquarters on the Hudson. Mr. Reichel, in his "Crown Inn," says that Frederick Fuehrer, who was fifteen years old, in 1782 afterwards related how he well recollected the stay of Washington at his father's hotel on the night of the 25th of September, and that "on retiring, he pleasantly sought to impress the people of the house, with an idea of the height of his person, by reaching his hand into a ring, suspended from a staple in the ceiling, which was inaccessible by men of ordinary stature." At any rate, it this was not his first visit to Bethlehem. It was certainly his last 2. This portion of the title is obliterated by age. 73 Easton Township-(Continued.)

installments. The asterisk (*), set opposite a name shows that it was one who was "doomed" to a double amount of tax. This double tax was suppose to be inflicted where a person refused either from conscientious scruples or otherwise to take the oath of allegiance, which was prescribed by the "test law" of 1777. The law of 1778 had imposed a per capita penalty of three pounds, ten shillings, instead of doubling the amount of the tax of the recusant. It does not appear possible that this double tax is a correct indication of the number in the county who declined taking the oath as for instance, in the township of Bethlehem, where none are entered as doomed to double tax; it is almost certain that there were several Moravians who declined (conscientiously) to take oath, and the the same as regards Mount Bethel. It seems to be as free of double-tax men as was Lower Saucon, though the latter was as remarkable for patriotism as was the former for the tory principles of many of its inhabitants. All that can be said is, that these double tax names are given as found on the assessement-book. [ ] unreadable
