Annie was rather pretty in thin
ladylike fashion, and she might have
married a uCacon or a missionary but
for her mother, who refused to be
"cut off from life" When Annie had
callers her mother entertained them.
on rare occasions, when she left the
room, she insisted that the door be

the day OF her death she chaperoned
Annie well and thoroughly, read
every letter sent to her before she

sumed in giving Annie an account

May 8, 1921.
It is always interesting to read the
lives OF multi millionaires and 70
find out whether chance, or foresight
or extreme cunning, or Just PLAIN
hard work brought them their great
fortunes.
William II. Vanderbilt was not rich
when he was young. He was the
son Of Commodore Vanderbilt, ana
was born in New Brunswick, n. j.
He had an ordinary school educa- :
ton. then began work as clerk IN
a Wall street office. After about TWO
years he was promottd far enough
TO be able to marry and support
home on his salary. He became part
ner in his firms business, then MS
health broke and he decided 10 Try
farming to get back his strength. HIS
father bought a farm on staten IS
land, out in the bay from New YORK,
where he seems to have prospered
fairly well. Then the Staten Island
railroad went into receivershlp ana
Vanderbilt was appointed receiver.
He not only ran the road, from tha'
time on, but made 1t pay and pres
entity started his real work-buildlns
up railroad systems.
Just how successful he was in do
ing this, is shown by the fact that he
built a two or three million dollar
house on Fifth avenue, the grea'
bronze doors alone being worth S25.-
GOO He died of apoplexy suddenly
I'm 1885, and left something like $1O,-
600 900 TO each of his eight children
This. too, was only part OF his
wealth.
