tombs Of Jefferson and Benjamin

The only remaining grandchld Of
Thomas Jefferson, three years ago

On Monday, with Miss Pauline and Mr..
Joseph q. Dueber. we visited the Art
Gallery In Edeu Park. A grand affair

pleasure Of being shown all the inside
of the great Dueber Watch

DueOer, on the 0livette, and attention
paid TO us from the time we arrived

the most joyful and
brightest page In the history Of my life,

his unequaled mammoth works, and
hope we will be equally successful in
obtaining his very estimable family as
