On the night last November when
returns pouring in from 48 States
indicated that her son was to become
President Of the United States for
the third time, Mrs. Sara Delano
Roosevelt said:
81 have had 86 years of happi-
ness"
Those years began in old New
York, where Mrs. Roosevelt was
born. She was one Of the five BEAU
tiful Delano girls French Hugue-
notS, men who fought in the Indian
wars and made their fortune in
whaling and shipping were her an
cestors.
Her father, Warren Delano, I'd,
lost his fortune when she was a
small girl and went of to China to
recoup. When he sent for his fam
lily, Sara Delano, her mother, sisters
and brothers travelled to Hong Kong
in a square-rigger, taking four
months for the voyage.
Returning to this country by way
OF Europe, young Sara leaned over
the balustrade of her Paris home to
wave to the Empress Eugene, wife
of Napoleon III.
Studied in Paris and Berlin.
As she grew up, she received her
education from private tutors and
later studied in Paris and Berlin.
After her debut she became a men,
ber of the fashionable set of New
York and the Hudson River Valley
but, despite her beauty, she was still
unwed at 26.
At dinner given by MIR. and Mrs.
Theodore Roosevelt, sr., parents of
President Theodore Roosevelt, the
26-year-old society beauty met
James Roosevelt. widower and ia
ther of a son her own age, also
named James.
The elder James Roosevelt was
81, sportsman and semi-retired
railroad lawyer. On October 7, 1880,
he and Miss Delano were married
and went to live at Springwood, 400
wooded acres at Hyde Park, N. Y.

help Franklin"
The change from the cloistered life
Of a hostess on the Hudson to the
public existence she had to follow
after her sons election never seemed
to bother her.
Unruffied by Royalty.
On the afternoon in 1889 when
reporters, photographers and serv-
ants scurried around her Hyde Park
home in preparation for the arrival
Of the King and Queen Of England,
Mrs. Roosevelt sat quietly in the
midst of the furry, pouring tea and
chatting in the great living room
cluttered with books and pictures,
a room so informal that even some
lamp shades also were bit askew.
1t was she who had decided on
the menus for the royal visit and
the quarters the royal entourage was
to occupy. But she YVES the least
disturbed person In the house.
Why should she be otherwise7 She
had chatted for hours with King
George v and Queen Mary in Buck
ingham Palace. She and Mrs. Al
bert LeBrun, wife of the one-time
Chief Executive of France, were good
friends. She had known dozens of
diplomats. Big things never dis
turbed her.
She never hesitated to break up
an important conference to ask what
her son would like for lunch.
If anything "riled" her 1t was the
relatives who would hardly speak to
her because they said her son was a
traitor to his class"
THE richer people have O chance
to be educated and you would think
they could see which way the world
is moving, yet so many of them are
tight-lipped and reactionary, afraid
Of life" she said, and she was 86
years old when she said 1t.
Paid Little Heed to Age.

her servants In 1888. A day later,

Life to Presidents Mother
Was '86 Years of Happiness
Motriurch of Roosevelt Clan Known
As Society Beauty in Her Youth

There. two years later, their only
son was born.
For 20 years, their life was leisurely,
quiet, devoted. Then, in 1900, when
young Franklin was a freshman at
Harvard, Mrs. Roosevelt became a
widow.
Mrs. Roosevelt moved to Boston
to be with her son. She had always
been very close to him, though he
had had a nurse. In later years,
she would talk for hours about his
childhood and, after he became
President, she wrote a book about
his early years called MY Boy
Franklin"
Stunned Personal Publicity.
In the house to which she had
come as bride, Franklin met his
future wife. He was then. His
fathers distant cousin, Elliott, had
brought his daughter, 2-year-old
Anna Eleanor, to call.
When her son married Anna
Eleanor Roosevelt, the Presidents
mother bought a house for the
young couple next door to her own
New York mansion. In her daugh-
ter-in-law's autobiography, there
are indications that the elder Mrs.
Roosevelt was often inclined to be
more than a passive part in the
young peoples lives.
On election night, 1882, she was
q little worried about him because
he looked tired. She thought that
again-and said it-many times in
the years that followed.

publicity, she couldn't escape it and

for Washington tonight.
Mrs. RooSevelt's grandchildren
were notified Saturday night of the

of them, John, Elliott and James,
arrived here yesterday afternoon.
The other two, Ensign Franklin, jr,
on sea duty with the Navy, and
Mrs. John Boettiger of Seattle, were
unable to come to Hyde Park.
Mrs. Roosevelt's only surviving
sister, Mrs. Price Collier of Tuxedo
Park, N. Y, visited her yesterday
noon. Her brother, Frederic A.
Delano, chairman of the National
Resources Planning Board, arrived
from Washington yesterday morning.

visits here.
Mrs. Roosevelt was the grand
old lady" of that Canadian island
which she worshiped during her
mer for almost go years.
Only eight days ago Mrs. Roose-
velt made her last crossing of the
narrow strait between the island
and Lubec, Me-, ending a summer
stay In which, as in the past, she
had called at the homes of many
islanders.

Broke Hip Several Years Ago.
For a person of her age, Mrs.
Roosevelt had been in exceptionally
good health, although several years
ago she broke a hip in a fall and
had used a cane since then. Her
last previous illness was on April 29,
1910, when she suffered an upset
stomach In New York City.
