In the city. At that time the mansion
stood on what is now the corner of
Varlck and Charleston streets. 1t was
surrounded by park Of 100 acres, ex-
tending to the water.
When Burr's wife died twelve years
later, she left one daughter, TheodOsia,
who became mistress of the most beau
tiful house in the city. Between the
father and daughter there existed an
unusually strong affection. TheOdosia
was a beautiful girl. and many tradi-
tious of her wit and charms are still
extant. Among visitors to the mansion
in those days were Alexander Hamil-
ton, Talleyrand. Volney, Jerome Bona
parte and Louise Philippe. Nearly all
DISTINGUISHED foreigners coming from
Europe were entertained there by
Aaron Burr and his daughter. At this
time Burr's fame was at its height
His home life was happy, and a great
career was open to him.

In 1900 Burr and Jefferson received an
equal number of votes for the Presi-

Burr being made Vice President. This

and Hamilton, resulting in the latter's
death.
Burr fed from New York, going down

There he bought several hundred thou

Jefferson had him arrested, brought
to Richmond. Va. and tried. No act OF
treason could be proved, so he was set
at liberty. He then went to Europe,
trying to carry out his schemes for con-

and IS all that Is left of what was once
the finest mansion on Staten Island.
Pennsylvania has had one President,
James Buchanan. and the house In
which he was born stands neglected
on Fayette street, Mercersburg Pa. At
present the building is fairly preserved,
but unless steps are taken to maintain
1t, it must soon make way for modern
houses.
AS it stands now the house was Blu
chauan's birthplace and the house In
which he received his schooling. Both
the residence and the school house once
stood at Stony Batter, in Franklin
County, and were removed to MERGERS
burg, the logs from the school house be-
ing used to build an annex to the resi-
dence. This school was kept by the
Rev. James r. Sharon. and was located
in Mercersburg. Many other noted
men besides the future President
gained their first instruction there. Con
sidering that this school was situated in
thinly settled section of the State and
was attended only slightly. the scope
and erudlte nature of the studies were
little short of marvellous, for Greek,
Latin, French, German. metaphysics
and philosophy were included.
1t was here that Buchanan gained the
foundation Of his remarkable talents as
a linguist and profound reasoner, and
which gained him so much praise on
his celebrated tour Of the world, when
he was entertained at the courts OF
Europe and held his own with the most
brilliant and erudite minds
The father of President Buchanan
James Buchanan, for whom he was
named, was resident Of Mercersburg
for thirty years. During his long resi-
dence he was one of the best-respecteC
citizens Of the town. a prosperous mer
chant and man of affairs, and hello
