sisters and daughters OF the unlimited
millions. They neither seek nor desire
TO parade their names and affairs before
the public. Their common sense forbids

human being do a more cowardly or a baser
thing than Brown in this instance. Brown
in the main was a good and generous man,
but his jealous desire to link his name
with that OF Keats oyermastered him. 1t Is
true that when John Keats died he owed
Brown something like f100, but 1t Is also a
fact that when Keats and Brown lived to-
gether Keats always scrupulously paid his
share of the expenses. And, what is more,
accounts were kept which are in existence
today. 1t is pleasant to record the fact that
George Keats paid this debt to Brown and
every other debt OF his brothers OF which he
could learn.
Two years after John Keats death George
discovered that the two sums previously al
luded to, left by his grandfather to the Keats
children, and for the purpose OF furnishing
an annuity TO their mother, amounting now
with accumulations OF interest to "A, 522, had

need OF borrowing that ESQ or so which gave
a slight color TO the ISLANDERS which Brown
circulated against George Keats. When
George Keats learned Of this money he took

been mlsled by this fact into the belief
that one Of these replicas was the original.
Such, however, is not the case, as the only
finished portrait for which John Keats ever
gave slttings is now in America and in my
possession.
George Keats ship sailed for Philadelphia,
which was reached after a long voyage. The
was on the wharf in Philadelphia, where he
saw a very black negro with very white teeth
eating a watermelon. This was his first
introduction to the African race, and also
to the negro's ~fayorite fruit. The beauty of
the meat Of the melon and the expression
Of complete satisfaction on the negroes face
made an instant impression on him, and he
was sure that he had landed in a country
that flowed with milk and honey. In Phil
adelphia he bought a carriage and horses
and set off on a journey to the Ohio river
at Pittsburg. At Pittsburg he embarked on
a flatboat and foated down the Ohio river.
ASSOCIATION WITH AUDUBON.
Somewhere between Liverpool and Pitts
burg he changed his mind as TO the end of
his journey and concluded not to go 10 New
Harmony. Instead Of that he went to
Henderson,, in Kentucky, and there by chance
he fell in with Audubon, the naturalist.
Audubon took a fancy to the young English
man because of his pluck and manly bearing
and constituted himself young Keats mentor
in the new world. That was a bad thing for
the young adventurer, for Audubon, learned
though he was in the ways of birds, knew
precious little about the practical business af-
fairs Of everyday life. lie persuaded George
Omaha daily bee., 1895-10-27

Keats to buy a boat and engage in trade up
and down the river. In this George Keats
invested all the money he had brought with
him from England. The venture was not
only unsuccessful, 1t was disastrous. The
boat lost money from the beginning, and be-
fore II could he sold met with an accident
and was a total loss.
In their correspondence over this misad-
venture both George and John Keats said
things Of Audubon that were probably en-
tirely undeserved. 1t is likely that he was
only unwiss in his counsel TO an mex
perienced young man, even though he did
profit by the sale of the boat in which he had
an interest.
George Keats went from Henderson, after
a brief stay. to Louisville, where he settled
permanently, living there for more than
twenty years and becoming one OF the hrst
citizens OF that city. After the wrecking OF
the boat, being without resources, he returned
to England to get what remained OF his share
Of his grandfather's estate. He got what he
could-not all that he was entitled to by more
than IS, 0O0-and returned to Louisville, where
he was now embarked in the lumber business,
having saw mills, and dour mills also, on the
banks Of the Ohio river. His business career
for more than twenty years was universally
successful. and he accumulated what was for
that time and locality a handsome fortune.

Keats in February, 1Sgl, could have been
