jefferson Davis and Benz Harrison.
From the 81. Paul Pioneer Press.

pfOHs Htc o. IUut 4 tOftccf Ifeoos
A Minneapolis gentleman who is very well
known, and whose information is always
found to be correct, makes statement
which, if sustained by genealogical inves-
tigation, is an exceedingly interesting one.
He claims that jefferson Davis great-grand-
mother was sister of President Harrison's
great-grandfather. The Interesting gene
alogy is said to be this:
The original Ben Harrison's son, William
H., President Of the United States, had a
son Benjamin, whose SON is now President.
The same original Ben Harrison who affixed
his signature to the declaration of Independ-
ence had sister who married man named
Smith, and they had a son, John Smith, who
was prominent citizen and a politician Of
Virginia. It is claimed that this latter
Smith slaughter was JEFF Davis mother
thus making the dead rebels great-grand-
mother a sister OF President Harrison's
great-grandfatner
