RECALLS POET TOM MOORE
Historic Old Landmark, Once Center
Of Diplomatic Residential Gen.
ter, to Be Raced.

With the coming of the changes
contemplated in the dwelling house at
2411 Pennsylvania avenue there will
pass away one of the few buildings
remaining out of those built in the
early part of the last century near
Washington circle, when it was the
center OF the diplomatic residential
quarter 1t was in this house that the
British legation to the infant Ameri
can republic had it's first home-a
home modest enough, when judged by
the standards of today, but mansion
OF superior dignity in those times when
measured by the raw and unsightly
dwelling houses that first marked the
capital
1t was In this house that the poet,
Thomas Moore, stayed when. in May.
18O5, he visited the city as the guest
of Mr.. Merry, then the British minis
ter to the United States.
1t is to be regretted that the visit
OF the great Irish bard was not
pleasant one, either for the visitor or
the visited. Indeed, every possible
adverse circumstance seems to have
combined to render that visit an un-
comfortable one. Tom Moore, at that
time, was the darling of the London
drawing rooms, petted by the ladies
and patronized by the lords; and the
head of the emotional young Irishman
was swimming with the adulation paid
him by those titled personages. to
whom, but few years before, he. as
a simple Irish lad, had looked up to.
He was in love with elegance and,
affstocracy and exclusiveness; hence,
he found nothing congenial in the
democracy and the free-and-easy man.
ners Of Washington society in the ad-
ministration of Jefferson
Furthermore, Mr.. Merry was an &C.
centric fellow, with an exaggerated
idea of his own importance in the
scheme of British national affairs This
weakness 1t delighted Jefferson to
play upon to the top Of his bent.
When the minister called, decked out
in gold and lace-and feeling himself,
in fact, as he was in theory, the Brit
ish crown itself-the president took
pains to receive him in an old and
tattered dressing gown and slippers
that tapped at the heels. This last
seems to have been especially pain.
full to Merry, who really played into
the political hands of the president
by sending home agonized protests
against British gold lace being re-.
ceived by American homespun.
Moreover the city was, at that time,
overrun by patriotic Irishmen who had
escaped from the revolution in their
own land and fed to this home of the
free. These had engendered even q
more bitter sentiment against Eng,
land and all things English among the
people Of the capital. 1t was good
politics, too, to hate everything Brit /
ish, and the administration encour.

Into such an unhappy and uncon- |
genial atmosphere it was that Tom

thing American. Even before Moore !
had met single soul in the city he
had his opinions already cut out for |
him.
