1t is known definitely that agents
acting for young Aston, have recently
been busy ascertaining the condition,
market value and price of the estate,
it being Vincent Astor's desire to
own an old Virginia place and to be-
come citizen of this state.
Pen5ing the young mans illness the
negotiations have been delayed, it

isumed as soon as he is able to return
to business matters.
Brandon, now known as Glow
Brandon since the estate was cut in
half, has been in the Harrison family
for over 200 years 1t originally Con-
tanned about 5000 acres and WAS
known as one of the most magnificcn
river estates in the country.
The old Harrison homestead is on
"Lower Brandon" and contains hun
dreds of historical relics worth thous-
ands of dollars.
Whether young Astor desires to buy
the old furniture is not known, !
he will likely take over the place just
as it stands; that is, if the penEing
deal is closed.

JACKSON FUND ASSURED.
Richmond Asked 70, Provide /; Base
And Pedestal for Equestrian
Statue.

hrCnIIlotfdy tlpEn ZZ.-1edueu Dy
Rev. James Power Smith, D. D.,
president of the Stonewan jackson
Monument z Corporation, a strong
delegation Of citizens appeared last
night before the Council Finance
Committee to urge an appropriation
of $4,000 for the construction of
foundation and pedestal for the
proposed monument to the great
Confederate leader.
DR.. Smith outlined the movement
for the erection Of a Jackson monu-
ment in Richmond, and told of the
encouraging response that has been
given the appeal for funds by citi-
zens Of Virginia and other States.
Money already in hand and prom
Used, he said, assures the success Of
the project. The recent General AS
senbfy made an appropriation OF
$4,000 for the monument, and the
city Of Richmond is asked merely
to provide suitable foundation and
pedestal. DR.. Smith said that an
appropriation of $4,000, or so much
thereof as might be found to be nee
essary for the pedestal would be
satisfactory.
Lieutenant Governor Ellyson as
sured the committee that if the
amount needed for the erection OF
the monument is not in hand by the
next. session of the General Assem-
bly,, that body would appropriate
enough money to make up the de-
felt. Judge D. C.. Richardson thought
it was as little as the city could do
to provide suitable foundation and
pedestal for monument which Will
mean so much to Richmond in a ma
terial way, if in no other. Captain
W. M. Myers said that the jackson
monument will cost between $780,
900 and 100000, and will be erected
within two years.
The local committee in charge of
arrangements for the brig public
meeting that will be held in the city
auditorium on the evening of April
20 in the interest of the monu-
'nent project, announced yesterday
that Mrs. Jackson has accepted the
invitation to be present. Mrs. jack
sons home is in Charlotte, N. c.
The auditorium meeting will be
the preliminary to .Stonewalt 5ack-
son Monument Day, which will be
observed throughout the State on
May /. A united effort will be made
by the Southern Confederate and
patriotic organizations on that day
to raise the money needed for cons-
pleting the monument fund. The
meeting at the auditorium will be
attended by the several military bod
les of the city. The John Marshall
High School chorus will sing, and
several speakers will make short ad-
dresses.
In common with all other business
before the Finance Committee last
night, the matter of making the
monument appropriation asked for,
WAS postponed. until the next meet
ling of the committee on May Z. The
speakers who addressed the commit
tee made out a strong case for the
appropriation, and the Councilmen
appeared deeply impressed.
