The elder Jerome bears marked resemblance to his
uncle, the great Napoleon, the latter is repre-
sented in statues, busts and pictures. His height
about FIVE feet eight inches and his complexion d
dark, with expressive eyes and features. His SON |
the young officer, is about six feet in height witt
rather lighter complexion than his father and mo-
bearing strong Bonaparte resemblance Jerome
the senior married Miss Williams, a lady of Bald
more, descended, we believe, from Massachusetts
family. They have another son besides the youne
Lieutenant. The elder of these American Bona
parties, born at Camberwell. in England, in 1905, a
we have stated, was brought to America by hi
mother, and carefully educated. At an early age hi
was sent to Harvard University, and having gradual
ted, he studied law, and was regularly admitted Il
the bar of Maryland. His marriage to q wealthy
tn ;pha 4 M
father of his mother, and legacy from Cardina
Fesch, the Emperor Napoleon's uncle, gave him q
large an estate as to demand his uninterrupted per
sonal attention. He visited Europe and spent some
years in travelling and study. In 1927, he was cor
daily received by his father Jerome the youn ges3
brother of Napoleon, who was then living in retire
ment in splendid palace at Florence, in Italy. Hi
mother, whose divorce had been proclaimed by thu
Imperial Senate of France and the Legislature
Maryland, visited Paris after the fall of Napoleon
about the year 1916. Herpecular situation, as di
vorced lady, from a husband whose afFec
tons she had enjoyed in early youth, bu
who was now the husband of German
Princess, excited the sympathy and respec
of many of the first families in France. Madame ID
Genlis was among those whom she met in Paris
and that distinguished authoress mentions her in bel
memoirs with admiration and feeling. This lady
having resumed her own family name of Patterson
has since led unmarried life, and continued I'd
reside in Maryland. Her brother, George Patter
son, Esq, is of the weathest agriculturists ID
that State. "Opulent, highly educated, and gifted
(says biographer of the famiy,) with qualities
which have rendered her happiness in a great
measure independent of others, Mrs. Patterson hal
passed long, serene and useful life, and doubtless
feels now in the evening Of her days. that it was nd
malicious fortune which withheld from her an Euro
pean diadem."
jerome Napoleon Bonaparte, her son, is now one
of the weathiest and most respected citizens Of
Baltimore, and has devoted his ife-now passed
middle age-to books, to travel to society, and I'd
agricultural pursuits For many years he has cult
waited large tracts of land with success owing to his
practical and scientific knowledge of agricultural

from their relatives, the Bonaparte family, id

legal heirs to the imperial throne of France.
