The Governments Debt to Robert
Morris and Thomas Nelson.

The Governments Debt to Robert
Morris and Thomas Nelson.
Robert Morris rendered inestim-
able service to his adopted country
by putting his own private fortune
into the breach of those early days
when the infant nation was in the
closest of financial straits. The one
million five hundred thousand dol
lars which made it possible for Wash
ington to carry on the campaign
against Lord Cornwellis was raised
entirely upon his own personal
security. For the most trying eight
years of our history this noble man
stood at the monetary helm of our
government and guided it through
many perils. Years after, in his old
age, unfortunate land speculations
ruined him. His creditors demand
ed immediate payment. His country
could have saved Morris by paying
back tithe of what he had freely
given to it in its time of need. This
was not done. To our lasting dis
grace, he was thrown into debtors
|
prison and died there, an old man
of seventy-two.
Thomas Nelson did for Virginia
what Robert Morris did for the ma
tion-saved the State from bank
ruptcy by devoting to her use his
large fortune. When he was in
command OF the State militia at York
town the exigencies of the situation
seemed to require the destruction of
certain large and imposing build
ing in the place. 1t is sad to know
that this gallant Virginia Congress
man and Governor was so embar-
rassed by the loan that he had made
to his State, to pay it regiments
when there was no money in the
treasury, that in his last days his
remaining property was sold to pay
his debts. He was but ffty-one
when he died, worn out by anxieties
and years of ill-health. .-Lora S. La
