Cornelius j. Vanderbilt, and borrowed from the
veteran journalist during his lifetime The
debt was cancelled on Saturday, however, by
Cornelius j. Vanderbilt himself, who paid Mr.
Greeley US daughters $61, 600. being the principal
ana interest OF his Indebtedness to the Greeley
estate, as $1,000 had been previously paid TO
these ladies In 1873 by Commodore Vanderbilt,
making the whole sum paid s7l 900. In Satur-
days settlement two notes Of Sc, 600 each were
given by Mr.. Vanderbilt, but as Col Smith, Mr..
Greeiey,s son-in-law, seemed dissatisfied, Mr.
vanderbilt announced his purpose to pay the
notes on Yesterday, thus saving tile seven ne,
