BURR'S FIGHT AGAINST FATE.
Just as Success Returned the Crush
ing Sorrows of His Life Came,

ing Sorrows of His Life Came.
aaron Burr was sixty years old
when he resolved once more to battle
with fortune" writes William Perrlne
in the Ladies' Home Journal Going
quietly into New York, he opened an
office for the practice Of law, and in
fortnight had earned two thousand
dollars in fees. But hardly had he
written to his daughter about his luck
when there came from South Carolina
the news that her beautiful boy, who
had been the idol OF the ambitioug
statesman, was dead. But there was
in reserve for Burr still heavier
low. Toward the close of the year
1912 Theodosia Allston made prepare
lions to visit her father in New York
Passage was engaged on the schooner,
The Patriot for Theodosia, her ply
stefan, and her maid, and the lovely
woman was radiant with the eXpecta-
ton of meeting her father within the
next five or six days. The Patriot
sailed from Charleston out into the
ocean in Christmas week, and not
vestige of her was ever again seen,
and it is understanding is known
as to her fate-that she tounlered off
| the coast of Hatteras. Day after day
and long after all hope had been
abandoned, there might be seen on the
Battery at New York the lonely and
unhappy father, peering far down the
bay as if he were scanning the sea for
sail Of his agony Aaron Burr gave
the world but little view; he had
schooled himself in the habit of never
exhibiting his emotions; but in one Of
his letters he declared that he felt as
if he had been severed from the hui
man race"
