day, aged 81. was one OF the very few
residents who remembered Joseph Bona
parte, the e killed King Of Spain, who had
q large tract of land and beautiful park
on the outskirts of Borde ntown
Matthews was for a long time coachman
for the ex-King and was his right hand
man.
Many were the "reminiscences told by
Mr.. Matthews of Bonaparte and his &C.
entric habits. He saw more nobility at
t he park than any other person in This
vicinity, and many tourists will miss Mr.
Ma tthews, as he was always ready TO ac-
company them about the pnFk and ex-
plain its arrangements. It's caves and tun-
nels and beautiful drives.
After leaving the employ of Bonaparte
Matthews became a driver on the Citi-
zvns' Stage Line from this city to New
Brunswick. This was the old route from
Philadelphia to New York, and was the
only one travelled by David Crockett on
his tour through the Southern States
Matthews followed no employment since
the stage route ceased operations.
