A report on test excavations along the foundation of Friendship House, 619 D Street, S.E., Washington, D.C., to determine if archeological resources would be destroyed in waterproofing the basement. The house, part of which dates to 1796, was a D.C. Historic Preservation Office administered Heritage conservation and Recreation Service historic preservation grant-in-aid project. Few artifacts were found as the excavation took place at the original front of the house. Most of the test pits contained mixed 19th and 20th-century artifacts that had been disturbed by construction and waterproofing in the 1930's. A quartz biface and obsidian scraper were also found.
