More Particulars Of the Fortune of
Miss Jessie Gregory.

The News and Observer published
last week the story of how Miss Jessie
Gregory has come into possession Of
a large fortune The Salisbury CORE
spondent of the Charlotte Observer
gives some additional facts about
what has in it no little romance. He
writes:
Several weeks ago Mr.. Edwin c.
Gregory went to Philadelphia on bust
ness which greatly concerned his
. sister, Miss Jessie Gregory, of Halifax.
Although it was known that Miss
Gregory had fallen heir to very con-
siderable fortune. it could not be
learned just what amount. 1t leaks
out in State paper this week, but it
is inaccurate. Mr.. Gregory's Aunt,
Miss Elizabeth Clarke. Miss Gregory
and Miss Mary Miles set sail for Paris.
The meeting of the three was casual.
From this first acquaintance Miss
Miles took a fancy to the young lady.
The same party went abroad nearly
every year. Miss Gregory studying in
Paris. The business of Miss Miles
called her back often to Philadelphia,
but the friendship of the two lasted
until the death of Miss Miles. 1t be-
came known then that she had willed
the bulk of her fortune to the North
Carolina lady, and the will made Miss
Gregory sole executriX. When Mr..
Gregory. went to Philadelphia, he
found that his sister had come in
possession Of a fortune exceeding
$250.O0O. Besides this she obtains
at the death of Miss Miles brother,
another sum, amounting to 100000.
This property is situated in the heart
of Philadelphia, and consists of the
most valuable of real estate. stores,
handsome dwellings, stocks and bonds
and other things. This delayed sac
count of a thing that must interest
many North Carolinians, could have
been given out long ago had 1T not
been for Mr.. Gregory's modesty. He

Spencer and the Lunatics.

To the late Herbert Spencer the
minds Of lunatics had a strange fasci-

visitor to a number Of asylums, and
he would never laugh so heartily as
when recounting some unconcious
witticism Of lunatic.
Sometimes he would tell of the
criticism a lunatic woman made on a
sermon that was preached in her
asylum. This criticism was brief, but
it was telling.

ing towards the clergyman, Ito think

On another occasion Mr.. Spencer

asylum they proposed to visit. Their
way led them across a railroad, and
seated near the track they saw a young
man reading. This young man was a
lunatic, but they did not know it at
the time.
"My friend" said Mr.. Spencer paus-
ing, "where does this railroad go to?''
The lunatic looked up from his book
and gave his interrogation a long stare
of scorn. Then he replied:

GEORGE WASHINGTON.
His Farewell a address, to His Country

His Farewell A Idress to His Country
men Had an Interesting History.
George Washingtons farewell address
to his countrymen, which ranks among
the three or four greatest of American
state papers, has an interesting history.
After the death of Hamilton two copies
of the address in Hamilton's handwriting
were found among his papers. This at
once gave rise to the surmise that Ham
ilton was the author of it, and a great
controversy arose. 1t was known, of
course, that when Hamilton was in the
cabinet he prepared and wrote out many
of Washington's communications and
speeches to Congress, but after his retire
mept it was not supposed that he did
more than occasionally advise with the
President on certain public questions.
John Jay took part in the controversy
and undertook to prove that Hamilton
was not the author of the address, stat
ing that the original address had been
written by Washington and then submit
ted to himself and Hamilton for sug-
eestions and amendments. For a num-
her of years the authorship was left in
doubt, but the facts, as time has devel-
oped them. seem to be these: AT the close
