For thirty years it has been the

SHE SNUBBED MONROE &

Incident In the Later Life of Mrs.
Alexander Hamilton.
A striking incident in the later life
of Mrs. Alexander Hamilton. who sur
vived her husband fifty years, is told
in the words OF an eyewitness in AL
Ian McLane Hamilton's Intimate Life
of Alexander Hamilton"
Mrs. Hamilton could never forget the
behavior of Monroe when he, with
Muhlenberg and Venables, accused
Hamilton of financial irregularities at
the time of the Reynolds incident.
Many years afterward when they were
both aged people Monroe visited her,
and an interview occurred which was
witnessed by a nephew, who was then
a lad of fifteen. 81 had" he says.
"been sent to call upon my Aunt Ham

her garden and was there with her

she spoke very low as she always did

My aunt followed, walking rapidly,
after her AS she entered the parlor
Monroe rose. She stood in the middle
of the room facing him. She did not
ask him to sit down. He bowed and,
addressing her formally, made her
rather a set speech-that it was many
years since they had met, that the
lapse of time brought its softening in
fiuences, that they both were nearing
the grave, when past differences could
be forgiven and forgotten-in short,
from his point Of view a very nice,
conciliatory, well turned little speech.
She answered, still standing and look
ing at him: Mr.. Monroe. If you have
come to tell me that you repent, that
you are sorry, very sorry, for the mis-
representations and the ISLANDERS and
