1t has always been supposed that
Robert Morris, the financier Of our
Revolutionary days, died in a Phila-
delphia prison where he bad been in
generated for debt. 1t appears, how
ever, from recent evidence collected hy
his heirs In New Jersey that instead OF
dying in prison in 1905, as all the his.
tories state, he died 20 years later on
a New Jersey farm. He had been
thrown into prison, but u friendly
hand had opened the door aud allowed
him to escape. He died In poverty
and constantly mourned over the in.
gratitude of the republic in taking his
fortune to carry on the war for indie
pendence and then impeaching him
Four years ago Congress made an ap'
preparation for the reimbursing OF
Robert Morris heirs. Their total
claim amounts to $S,OO0,OOO. Repub
lies are not ungrateful; they are merely
slow In showing their gratitude
Washington was given his position In
early Revolutionary days because he
was a rich Virginia farmer: Morris
was given the treasury because he Wa.
one Of the richest men on the CONT
nent. He had faith in the outcome o.
the war, loaned the government hi
own money, was unable to get any re
turn, stood u trial for Impeachment
was thrown into prison because hi
money which should have gone to pay
his private debts had been used In tn,
war, and he died in poverty and WI
did not take enough interest In him
