George Washington borrowed a unique book from the New York Society Library and forgot to return it for over 221 years. When finally returned, the book was worn but cherished, revealing its connection to Washington's collection. The library waived the late fee of over $300,000, highlighting Washington's love for reading and the library's historical significance. This amusing incident became a talking point in the community, reminding everyone that even great figures can overlook due dates.
