-HE story Of the large and his
toric land tract called st. Eliza
beth. on a part of which the
q government Hospital for the
Insane was created under provision of
an act of Congress approved August
81, 1852, was treated of by the Rambler
two weeks ago. 1t was not possible to
compress a reasonably comprehensive
sketch of this tract. its owners. and
the great government institution to
which the tract gave name. within the
limits of a single ramble.
At the time of the passage by Con-
gress of the act ito enable the Secre-
tary of the Interior, under direction of
the President of the United States. to

persuasion of Miss Dorothea Lynde

Of a site for the asylum hospital.
The recorded history of the st. Eliza
beth tract goes back to 1863, when the
land was granted by the lord proprie-
tary of Maryland to one George Thonp-
son. A complete search of the grants
and deeds of this tract would very
probably show that it was a part of the
extensive holdings of the Addison fam
lily, for the Rambler knows that Gies-
borough. the tract on the south of st.
Elisabeth, was Addison land until it
was sold by John Addison to DR.. John
Thomas Shaaff of Annapolis September
10, 1909, while Chichester. the tract ad-
Joining st. Elizabeth on the north, was
Addison property until the latter part
of the eighteenth century and the early
years of the nineteenth. when it was
sold in large parcels to various men.
The first reference to st. Elizabeth
which the Rambler has found in the
land records of the District of Column
bia is a mortgage recorded March 10,
1886. 1t is from Griffith Coombe ct al
to Clement T. Coote and William Spell
den. administrators of the estate of
John Fountain.
In a deed recorded November 20, 1897,
is this.
