al was twelve years old when my
grandfather died.. she said, and Ese-
member him very well. During the last
years Of his life he was ont of public

and friends. His love OF country was
very strong. No man was ever turned
away from his door. just few days
before Mr.. Jefferson died there we're
over sixty people visiting at Monticello.
He seemed to like to have 1t go. His
heart reached out to all. Oh! those
we're happy days."
