QUAKER FAMILY

The life of Edward Townsend
Stotesbury is one of the great
examples of the social life Of this
century. He was born into the
Quaker family of Thomas Pritch-
EFT Stotesbury and Martha Parker
Stotesbury, on February 26, 1849.
Despite his Quaker training,
young Stotesbury enlisted as a
drummer boy when the Civil War
broke out, and when the conflict
ended he became a bank clerk
at a salary of SIC month.
This job was with the then
growing Drexel & Company, with
which company's rise to power his
own fortune of many millions was
made. From the humblest If its
clerks Stotesbury rose to head the
gigantic financial organization.
WORKED " YEARS
His active business life was
nearly three-quarters of a century
IA years. Yesterday he attended
a meeting and collapsed a few
minutes afterward, practically
dying in harness.
In that u years he saw the
organization Of the great trusts,
replacing the great personal bust.
nesses built up since the American
Revolution. He saw the invention
of the Welsbach gas burner, the
electric light, the telephone, the
automobile, the airplane, and
hundreds of other things which
revolutionized American life-and
was active in the promotion and
development of most of them.
He saw great railroad expansion
and had an active part in the
romantic and exciting develop
ment Of transportation.
FIRST MARRIAGE
Mr.. Stotesbury'S first marriage
was to Frances Burgman Butcher,
by which were born two daugh-
tiers, Edith. who married Sidney
E. Hutchinson, and Frances B.
who married ]. KearSley Mitchell.
His second marriage was one of
the most brilliant social affairs
in the nations history, and oc-
CURED in Washington, January
10. 1912. He had by this time
achieved prominence as a Morgan
partner, and President and Mrs.
Howard Taft attended the
nuptials.
Mr.. Morgan gave Mrs. Stotes-
bury a diamond necklace with a
pendant diamond the size of a
egg. They dined in pri-
vate car and went to Palm Beach,
returning in February to Phila-
delphia for the opening of the
opera to which Mr.. Stotesbury had
contributed 100000.
NOTED ART PATRON
The second Mrs. Stotesbury was
Mrs. Eva Roberts Cromwell. widow
of Oliver Eaton Cromwell and
daughter Of John r. Roberts.
Always a noted art patron,
much of his large fortune was
spent for sculpture and paintings.
His personal hobby was horses,
and it was frequently said his
method was to buy the horse first
and ask it's price second. He had
served as president Of the National
Horse Show Of America, Ltd.
He was an ardent Republican,
serving as treasurer in the cam.
paigns of Theodore Roosevelt and
