Visit to John RandOlph's Old Plan
tatiOD.

John Randolph's old Roanoke plan
tatiOn, says a correspondent of the
Springfield Republican, is now owned
by Judge Boulding, of the Supreme
Bench of the State. The residence il
situated iD an oak grove, with an eX-
posture to the South and west, fronting
and overlooking the valley. In 1910.
when Randolph first came there to
live, he called it savage solitude"
but he hardly ever wearied of his
beautiful oaks. He allowed the un-
derbrush to grow at will, and never
trimmed the trees. During his alb
sence, the overseer cut away from a
tree before his house a limb which
brushed against a window. On his
return he asked the reason, and being
informed. replied, Why didn't you
move the house, sir p The old Eng
lish baroRs of ieudal times were his
ideals. His home, however, was low
cottage house, which has disappeared,
though his summer residence near by
is still standing. He drove in coach
aud four where 1t was possible upon
his numerous journeys. His slaves
we're always we'll treated. No grain
was ever SOlu on MT. hduuOlpn ldDu.
He always said that his blacks should
raise what was needed on his planta-
ton but not more. Finally, in his will
he made provision for freeing them all,
three hundred in number. He had
been unalterably opposed to the Mis-
souri, Compromise, by which the do
main of slavery was restricted; he had
upheld the divine right of slavery
through evil report and good report;
and yet in bis will reeur these words:
I give and beqUeath 70 all my slaves
their freedom, heartily regretting that
| have been the owner of one" Fur
ther than this. he provided for the
purchase of 1000 acres of land, to be
given to those freed slaves. Those
who remember Mr. Randolph say that
he never shaved. He had an ex-
tremely thin but very sweet and clear
voice. Once when In England, he
made an engagement to due with
certain nobleman, but subsequently,
receiving and invitation for the same
time from Miss Edgeworth, the au-
thor, he accepted the latter, and after
ward apologized to the nobIeman by
saying, the woman tempted me, and l
did eat.
