$4,000 Will Save Monticello

M ONTlCELLO to go under the hammer!
lF1 The home OF Thomas Jefferson
hawkcd about among real estate agents
seeking purchaser for national shrine!
/, is unthinkable but fact. 1t is desc
Grafton. but true.
Through the generosity and patriotism OF
Jefferson NJ. Levy. former Congressman. in
whose family possession of Monticello has
roposcd for many years. the neglect of Nir-
einia and the United States has not stood
out so glarnEly as it would have under less
happy circumstances OF ownership. But
ROW Mr.. Levy. after bcstowing upon it his
patriotic. loving care throughout II long life.
feels i; incumbent on him to sell the ia
nous home OF Jefferson the man who wrote
the Declaration of Independence, the father
of Democracy. and the founder OF the Uni
versity Of Virginia. Into whose hands shall
it pass? Virginia and America must am
swer. On the answer depends whether Mon
ticello becomes national shrine in fact
we'll in name. or whether the honorcd,
historic ediice falls into pl.>a;e hands TO
be disposed OF at private within.
Ten thousand dollars will save Monticello
10 the nation. On May IS. 1927, n charter
was granted in this city to the Thomas JEFF
fcrson National Memorial Association. Mrs
Elmer d. Hotchkss is president and Miss
gnia Trust Company custodian of funds
To that association Mr.. Levy offered an OPP
tion on Monticello for $4,000 cash That
sum has not yet been raised although the
offer still holds good. The association had
not expected TO begin its campaign for the
option fund until this fall, but with Month
cello on the open market, the need for haste
seems urgent.
Is there no Nirginian, or group OF Nir-
ginians. who will advance, or undcrwritc
this comparatively small sum in SO great an
undertaking? With the option obtained
campaign for the purchase price could be
conducted with every hope of success. But
until that option is secured the association
has nothing tangible TO offer. Here then.
is an opportunity for real patriotic service
on the part OF Nirginians. Will they delay
when at any moment that opportunity may
pass?
