SITE OF FORT NECESSITY.

The outline of the Southern embankment is in the fore-ground. The hill is locally known as Mount Washington; the brick mansion stands on the old National road and was known as Sampey’s Tavern. From this hill the French first attacked the little Virginian army under Washington in the fort.
