The Sage of Monticello

1.-THE Sage of Monticello is the nickname that
applied to Thomas Jefferson for the same
reason and in much the same manner as Daniel
Webster was given the title THE Sage of Marsh
field" jefferson won the title of sage" for the
many glorious truths he uttered and as Webster
loved every inch of the ground of the beautiful
Cape Cod village of Marshield and its calm
scenery he believed gave him just such inspira-
tion as he needed. so at Monticello Iefferson's
Virginia estate, the great statesman found the
most delightful retreat from his labors, and the
essence OF contentment, which inspired him to
larger, greater and more beneficial things for the
betterment Of his country.
Jefferson was born at Shadwen the homestead
of the family, near Charlottesville, Va When
that estate was destroyed by fire in ITO along
with its furniture, books and his law papers he
sought out another location which was even moro
attractive to him, About two miles from the
Shadwell house hill named by jefferson
Monticello little mount. This eminence com.
manded view OF surprising beauty and he chose
this place as the site for a mansion that should
embody his ideas OF archiecture-an art unop
which he expended much thought and in which
he was more than an amateur. After the fire the
building OF new house upon his little muunt,
was pushed rapidly, and In something more thar

new mansion Martha SHELTON a childless widow
