dow plaster cast OF Burrs head had lust
been placed, and noticed two ladies', richly
dressed, standing before t.; one was young,
the other old. As passed the young lady
said triumphantly Grandma, what is there
here to interest you SOP why" said the
other, there is cast of Col Burr" "And
what Of that?" was the reply. "Ahl my
dear" said the old lady, in an ndescribable
tone, you never knew Col Burr met
him often in society, and am sure he was
the most lovable man ! ever met
Some assertions In an article on the death
of Col. Burr, which appeared in the New
York Times during last summer, are preju-
diced and untrue. This article speaking Of
his terrible outbursts of profanity while on
his death bed, and asserts that he died de-
serted by his friends and bcreft Of human
sympathy. Now happen to know that the
reverse Of this IL true. Col. Burr died, a.
you know, at the Continental Hotel, Port
Richmond, Staten Island. His disease was
paralysis, a comparatively painless malady.
Judge Ogden Edwards and wife, own cous.
ins Of Col. Burr, were then living in the old
Dougan Manor House ON the island which
by the way has ahlstory--and devoted them.
selves assiduously to the care of their aged
relative, and his friends In New York were
unremitting IN their attentions
During these last days Burr lay every day
in sort Of stupor until about three O'Clock
in the afternoon, when he would awaken
active and vivacious, attend TO his business
affairs, read the newspapers, and receive
such visitors as might call. Many did call,
and among them the Rev. DR.. vaupelt, of
the Dutch Reformed Church ON the island,
who was frequently at his bedside. Colonel
Burr treated his visitor with the respect and
courtesy due his calling, and the doctor was
pleased with him. They conversed freely
on religious topics, and Col. Burr expressed
bis entire belief in the essential doctrines of
Christianity. At the end he died IA tran.
GULLY as q child sinks into slumbcr.
In conclusion, allow me 10 notice very
pleasant and mysterious story told by Mr..
Parton in his "I.ife of Aaron Burr" concern
ing the erection of Col. Burrs tombstone In
the Princeton College churchyard. Mr..
Parton says that this stone was not erected
until some time after the Colonies death,
and then under cover of the darkness, and
that no one knows TO this day whose was
the hand that performed this friendly act
But this story Is untrue. The facts Of the
case are these; When Col Burr's estate
came to be settled there was found large
number Of bad debts, and some Of these after
the estate had passed out OF the executors
hands, were paid, and the executors came to |
Judge Edwards to know what should be
done with the money. lie advised them TO |
use II in the purchase OF n suitable monu.
ment TO Col. Burr's memory, which was
done and the stone was erected without any
pretense of secrecy.-N Y. Eosaiag Post
