some OF his heirs entertained temperance
views OF such extreme kind, that they were
unwilling to allow the stock Of wines then on
nan nand to be sold or any more to be made.
Inc grapes have sometimes been sent 10

the vines. 1t is only now that the other heirs
nave succeeded in arranging for settlement
OF the estate and the sale Of the wines on
hand. Among these IS wine of the vintage
OF 1864 described as "Swcct Union Port,'
put suggesting the Imperial Tokay more
than any other European vino, and being
wholly unlike any other wine Of American
growth. Its purity. age and mcllowness are
