Matthew Wright's Will Interests
Rambler During Visit to Old Estate

present trip is really one for rest and
out of Il sense of duty to meet in
formally the President of the United
States.
There are wild rumorS spoken and
printed every day concerning the par
lies and general round of entertain-
ntent arranged for the prince. You
can take ii from Maj. Oscar n. Sol
bert, Engineer Corps. L. 5. A., official
escort, who arranged the program
for the trip. that these are mostly
false alarms.
We are given to understand that
he is to visit Boston and the North
shore twhcre the British E,mba ssy
is located for the summer), and that
he Will make an extensive trip to
Newport, and even to Palm Beach in
the off season
The wish of the people in all these
places for him to cNr'e there seems
~ be father to the thought thar
Will actually apps Il IN person.
''These rumors are all quite ground
less" Maj. Sofbert says.
The prince arrived at quara n time
Friday. the 29th, and proceeded at
once to Long Island, where he will
remain for his whole visit, except
for the trip by special train yesterday
30 make Il brief call upon the Presi-
dent of the republic in Washington
His visit. by his own urgent re-
quest, is without fuss and feathers
or social furore. He wants to get
away from all that as much as poSsi-
BILE. He is here for rest and Il holi-
day with light recreation after a very
strenuous season in London full of
public ceremonies, receptions and ap-
pearances of all sorts.
The London season opens in May
and runs through July. 1t comes
after the hunting season is over. In
other countries the ladies set the
season, but in England the men just
Will not allow the social activities
to interfere with their hunting, and
so that is the one country where the
social season waits on the man.
The season just closed has been
an unusually arduous one for the
Prince of Wales on account of the
visits of two royalties. the King of
italy and the King of Rumania, and
because of the Wembley Exposition
of which the Prince of Wales is
president so he had to make in
Vulnerable appearances at ceremonies,
banquets and in meeting those who
came from the colonies.
The only way he could get a rest
is to escape from the whole atmos-
phere. He decided to come to this
country beeatse he likes it, likes the
American people and believes it is

that the will of Matthew Wright is
most interesting. He must have been
associated with the Liberian Coloni-
cation Society, and the records If that
old company would no doubt show
some thing of the history Of Matthew
Wright. From one of his collateral
desce ndants. the Rambler has heard
that Wright liberated during his life
fifteen of his slaves and sent them
to Liberia. But. let us read the Will:
"As regards my negroe s. he di-
rects that two old men. Zeph and
George, "be comfortably supported
and maintained during their natural
lives by my nephews. William. Mat
thew and Joseph Trimbe." He gives
the negro lad Isaac, 'at the expira-
tion of five years from my decease. his
full freedom" and directs the exec
utors to furnish Isaac with the nee
essary legal papers. Then the testa-
tor says:

Contrary to the impression given
by the humorous press of the country,
the Prince of wales is an exception
ally good horseman, according to Ma j.
Solbert. who is a good judge of such
matters, and who has been on some
arduous hunts with the prince. The
superior quality of his horsemanship ip
is easily proved by the fact that in
the four years in which he has done
difficult and dangerous riding. such as
hunting and steeplechaSing, the
Prince of Wales has had only IA falls.
Taking into consid Grafton the fact
that he hunts three times a week dur
ing the season. and is found pra. ii
cally always in the fist flight in the
hunt, he is one of the best light
weight horscmen in En-. land.
He consistently d,s at or near
the head of the hunt in every chase.
This fat is borne out by number
of Americans who have hunted with
him during the last few years in
Leicc stershire. Fourteen falls in
tour years of hard r.d ns is Il very
low average. In fact. this number of
falls is often made in single season
