Numerous Benefacons of the Founder of the Coeoran Gallery of
Art-Winesses and Executors of the Wil-Bequests
to Many Friends in Washington.

on 1fth street on which the familiar
versity, now George Washington Uni
versity. he gave the medical school
property on III street and later en-
dowed the Corcoran Scientific School;
to Ascension Church he gave $4,000;
to Georgetown. his birthplace. he gave
Oak Hill cemetery. His various gifts
to the University of Virginia are said
to amount to $4,000, and it is known
that he gave generously to William
and Mary College at Williamsburg, the
Virginia Military Institute, the wash
ington and Lee University and the
Virginia Theological Seminary of the
Episcopal Church.
X.
Mr., Corcoran bore the expense of
having the remains of John Howard
Payne, the author of :Home, Sweet
Home" removed from their resting
place in Tunis and brought to the
poets native land. He had the body
reinterred in Oak Hill cemetery and
marked the spot with an appropriate
and impressive monument. Mr.. Cor
coran also erected handsome mon
ument at the grave of his old friend,
Bishop Pinkney. Another of his good
acts which are matter of public rec
ord is that in 1870 he purchased the
Patapsco Institute at Ellicott Mills,
Nd. and gave it to the greatnieces
of John Randolph Of Roanoke, who
conducted school there. On his
eighty fifth birthday he received from
Paris. as a recognition of his serv-
ices to art and his deeds of charity,
the decoration of the Ancient Order
of Melusine, founded in 1886 by the
queen Of Guy Lusignan, King of Jeru-
salem. The order is a benevolent and
scientific one.
A large number Of bequests were
made by Mr.. Corcoran in his will, and
reading of this instrument helps
one to get an insight into the char
acter of the man. The will, which
is preserved in the office of the reg
lister of wills of the District of Colum-
bia. was signed September 26. 1887,
the witnesses being William A. Maury.
Leigh Robinson and Bernard H. john
ston. The will was recorded February
30, 1883, by Charles NJ. Matthews and
sworn and subscribed to before Dor
sey Claggett, then register of wills.
The first item of the will is this: ITO
each of my following named nieces
and nephews. to wit, Hannah Maria
Nicholson, William T. Jones, William
c. Hill, Sarah C. Tkom and Emily
c. Matthews, 1 give and bequeath
$4,000"
Having provided in part" wrote Mr..
Corcoran. ''for william NJ. Corcoran,
Charles s. Hill and Mary w. Reynolds,
I give and bequeath to the said Mary
w. Reynolds the sum of $4,000 and to
my executors the sum of $1,000 to be

scOF1n ana mis- EC.nc a. inc nOrtH-
- east corner of Connecticut ave-
nue and II street the Rambler has
told OF Mr.. Corcoran's youth and busi-
ness career. Frequent references have.
ALSO been made to those Institutions
which MIR. Corcoran founded and en-
dowed, the Corcoran Gallery of Art
and the Louise Home. Though Mr..
Corcoran was distinguished in q num-
ber Of ways. IL was perhaps as n
phiianthropist that he made his
strongest appeal to the people of
Washington and to many other Amer
leans.
In the biographical sketch which
The Star published on the day of Mr..
Corcoran's death, February "a, 1858.
and to which the Rambler has fire.
1Ss7 AIR. Corcoran contributed liberal
ly to the sufferers by the Irish famine.
and his action then, and his generous
contribution to the Hungarian exiles,
excited the admiration of George Pea
body, and between the two philan-
friendship" The Star said that Mr.
Corcoran has been a munificent pa
tron of art and education, and his
bounteous philanthropy has also ex-
tended to objects appealing more to
tenderer sentiments than love of art
or learning. The Corcoran Art Gal
lery, begun in 1859. cost $500, 900. Be-
fore tho structure was finished the
civil war broke out. Mr.. Corcoran
went to Europe, preferring, it is said,
a residence abroad during his declin-
ing years to remaining here in the
midst of civil strife. His absence, how
eyer. was construed as hostile to the
government.
The Corcoran Art Gallery building
was ssei1ed and occupied during the
war by the quar:ermaster generals
Office. MFR. Corcoran's house would
X likewise have been taken over by the
government, but the French minister
protected it, claiming that he had
rented 1t. After the war, Mr.. Cor
coran having returned, the Corcoran
Art Gallery was completed. Mr.. Cor
coran placed in it his own private coli
lection of art, valued at 100000 en-
dowed the institution with $500, 200
end formally presented 1t to the pub
lie on Washington's birthday. 1872.
Since then he has bought from his
private purse and presented to the
gallery many notable paintings and
sculptures. The gallery has from its
muniicent endowment an income of
$4,000 a year uSss). Mr.. Corcoran,
about the same time, erected and en-
dowed the Louise Home. Upon this
object he expended about half a mil
lion dollars"
The Rambler has no full record OF
the public gifts of Mr.. Corcoran, and
the record OF his private gifts, II such
record was made, was known only
~ 70 himself. But among the big things
which Mr.. Corcoran did, in addition tt
the art gallery and the Louise Home
were these: To the Washington
Orphan Asylum he gave the propert,

wife of the said William NJ. Corcoran,
and Fanny Hill. the wife of the said
Charles s. Hill, with remainder to
their children and descendants in fee
simple. Having already provided for
my nephew, James w. Corcoran, l
make no bequest in this item to him."
In the next item of the will Mr.. Cor
coran wrote: II do hereby give and
beuueath to such of my grandnieces
and grandnephews (meaning thereby
the grandchildren of my brothers and
sisters) as shall be living at the time
of my death, the sum of $4,000 each.
to be paid to them when and as they
shall attain or have attained the age
of twenty-one years. the legacy to
any one of my said grandnephews and
grandnieces dying before attaining
said age of twenty-one years, to
lapse"
Mr.. Corcoran bequeathed to Harriet
b. Coolidge, Elizabeth A. Fox, Maria
L. Duncan and Julia H. Addison, Sis
tiers of his deceased wife, Louise Nor
ris, and to his niece Martha f. Kirk
$1,000 each. and to Mrs. Caroline d.
Morris, widow Of Commodore Charles
Morris, Mr.. Corcoran's father-in-law,
he bequeathed $4,000. To his friend
and faithful assistant, Anthony Hyde.
in recognition Of his long and un-
firing devotion to my interests, ! give
the sum of $4,000 and should he not
survive me I direct that said sum be
paid to his widow" To Arthur L.
Brice, who was Mr.. Corcoran's private
secretary, he left $4,000; to Miss Lucy
Hunter, who was the first matron Of
the Louise Home and sister Of his
confidential clerk, Dr. John Hunter, he
left $1,000 and ITO my esteemed and
valued friend, DIR. James C. welling,
the sum of $4,000; TO the Rev. Philip
Slaughter of Virginia, the sum Of
$4,000, and to the Misses Mary and
Julia Balch. daughters of my old
friend. Hev. Thomas B. Balch, the
sum of 1000 TO be equally divided be-
tween them"
Mr.. Corcoran did not forget those

the following item In the viii: ITO
John Mcmahon I give and beaueath

among US.
Among his numerous nieces, Miss
Mary Blake Jones seems to have been
held by Mr.. Corcoran in the most af-
fectionate regard. and the Rambler
abstracts this item from the will: ITO
my niece Mary Blake Jones I give and
bequeath the sum Of $4,000. the sum
given her in recognition Of her Kind
attention and devotion to me-"
Persons who have looked closely
at Mr.. Corcoran's portrait in the Cor
coran Gallery of Art must have noted
that he is represented as richly and
fashionably dressed and holds a cane.
That portrait was painted in 1867 by
Charles Loring Elliott, who was born
at Scipio. N. Y, in 1912, studied under
John Trumbull and Quidor, and after
earning many honors as portrait
painter, died at Albany, N. Y. in 1868.
Mr.. Corcoran was throughout the long
period of his prosperity a well Dress
ed man. He always carried cane and
owned number of walking sticks
that had been. presented to him.
The presentation Of canes was a
commoner ceremony half a century
ago than it is now. The present Gus
tom is to give a man a banquet"
which has generally come to signify
a poor dinner accompanied by worse
speeches. In the olden time they
would give man q cane and drink
his health. OF course. our fathers
and grandfathers made and listened
to long -winded speeches at the pres
entation of canes, but. because Of the
character Of the refreshments served,
the speeches did not seem so dismal
and dispiriting as tho do now.

The Rambler has resurrected the
following from the file of The Star
concerning MIR. Corcorans personal
appearance: "Mr. Corcoran gave much
F., attention to his garden and, like his
neighbor, Mr. Bancroft, was pas
sionately fond of flowers Mr.. Cor
coran rode out frequently. He was
always scr,.pulously dressed wore
gloves, carried handsome gold head
ed cane and invariably wore a red
rose In the lapel of his coat"
Several of the canes (which Mr.. Cor.
coran particularly priced are men
toned in his will as the following
item of that instrument shows:
THE cane of the late Gen. Robert
f. Lee. presented to me by his widow
