Levi Parsons Morton was the
twenty ty-second vice president of the
United States, the running mate of
Benjamin. Harrison In 1888 At II
years of age he rounded out his
political life as governor of New
York state.
Although born the son of a
clergyman in poor circumstances
at Shoreham. VT, in 1924. he
forced his way to the front in the
business and financial world until
hes became one of the money
powers of the country. He had the
blood of a financier in his veins
descendant as he was of George
Morton of York, England, who
who raised funds to send the Pill
grims to America on the May
flower.
Clerk in a country store at IA.
proprietor of his own little dry
goods store at 81, he started his
banking career at 2S as a partner
of Junius s. Morgan, father of the
late J. Pierpont Morgan, and ten
years later founded his own house
of l.. p. Morton e Co, which be-
came the fiscal agent of the gov
ernment. Under his guidance it
conducted some of the largest ne
gotiations in the history of Amer
lean finance. It's London branch
floated the per cent loan. with
other European bankers. which en-
abled the United States government
to resume specie payment in 1871,
saving $70,000.000 in interest. This
payment had been suspended dur
ing and after the civil war.
Morton's financial operations
brought him into political promi-
nence. He entered congress in 1878
and established a reputation in the
fight over unlimited free coinage
of silver. He was urged to accept
for vice president with
President Garfield, but declined.
He was offered n portfolio in the
cabinet as secretary of the navy,
and refused again.
The offer to become minister to
France appealed to him. He ac-
cepted and remained during Gar
fields and Arthur's administra-
tions. He secured the legal status
of American corporations in
France. He drove the first nail in
the construction of the Statue of
Liberty, and publicly accepted it
in 1864 in behalf of the United
States. He established himself so
firmly in the hearts of the French
people that the square in which
his legation stood in Paris was
named place des Etats Unis."
When a New York man was de-
sired in 1883 to stand on the re-
publican national ticket with Ben
jamin Harrison, Mr.. Morton was
the choice of the convention by a
large majority. AS presiding Of
ficer In the senate he gained the
praise of both parties for the vigor
and the fairness of his policy. Mr.
Morton concluded his political ca
reer as governor of his state, TAX
ng office In 1895 and serving two
years. He signed the bill which
abolished the ward-trustee system
IF school government in New York
,ity, and the so-called Raines
liquor law.
After leaving office in his vigor-
,us old age he still was active in
he directorates of many corpora
ions. He was rated a millionaire,
many times over.
Mr.. Morton was twice married.
His first wife was Lucy Kimball.
who died in 1871. His second was
Anna Liveingston, member of an
I'D Manhattan family.
