A STORY ABOUT THE CLAY FAMILY =
The Cincinnati Enquirer tells the following
story
When the great Statesman, Henry Clay, was
living, he purchased a farm in Kentucky for
his son Thomas, and stocked and prepared it
thoroughly for his use. After a few years
residence on the farm, Thomas wrote to MS
father for more money-that his farm needed
important improvements, and he had not the
wherewith to procure what he needed. Mr..
Clay replied to the effect that as he (Thomas)
had squandersd the means he had given him
in preparing the farm for his use, he should
now go to. Thomas replied III a brief let
ter to his father, as follows This letter is
now with a friend in this city, and may be
given to the Sanitary Fair
MY DEAR FATHER Your kind letter of
instant is before me. 1 have pursued and
digested its contents, and am obliged to re-
turn your warmest gratitude for the kindly
admonition it contains. The destination you
direct me to go will be strange to me, and L
have deemed it the part of a dutiful son to
request of you a letter of introduction.
Horing soon to hear from you, 1 remain
your most obeiient and dutiful son,
THOMAS CLAY.
