RARE GEORGE WASHINGTON PRESIDENTIAL FAN Carved and printed with inscriptions. Published by W. Cock, #2, Pall Mall, London, June 1797. Dedicated to the Excellency General Washington, late President of the United States of America. "While with a strong yet gentle hand.
You held at the helm and did our hearts command.
Made us unite, protected us from each foe.
To you and Franklin our liberty we owe.
Great in the field and in the senate.
Just as statesman, warrior, faithful to your trust.
To you America, each blessing owes.
And every good that liberty bestows.
A grateful country long shall hail thy name.
Adorn thy wealth and consecrate thy fame.
Thy patriot virtues made them what they are.
Favoured of heaven and gods peculiar gaze."
