PAGE TWO THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ee ee ee ee Pam * THE HOME OF JEFFERSON 247 Sree eee ee WASHINGTON, D. C., July 1. —One of the most notable _ pil- grimages of its kind in the history wf the nation is that which is be- ang-organized for this week end to journey to Monticello, the old home of Thomas Jefferson, to pay tribute to the memory of the au- thor. of the Declaration of the In- *___ dependence. The time will coin- cide with the 100th anniversary ef Jefferson's death and the 150th S<erltiversary of the promulgation of the immortal document which * he wrote. “=P -The pilgrimage will be partici- epated an by high government and Mstate! officials, representatives of patriotic societies, students of his- Soteory, and many admirers of Jef- swat ®t2on from all sections of the “Téountry. Visits will be paid to the eite of Jefferson's birth, the his- Storie mansion which he occupied during the days of his fame, and SSHhe «spot nearby where he was buried. = In Jefferson's day Monticello, which occupies the crest of a beau- “"Fitul hill overlooking Charlottes- ville, was the finest mansion in iat section of Virginia. Its hos- -~pitality was famous, particularly Soot dinners and wines, and so were ~-the balls that were given there in ithe early days, The ballroom does =snot suggest the conventional ideas 2 gf Jeffersonian simplicity. It is a « stately apartment, with Pompeiian decorations. in the frieze, and a Jefty ceiling. The dining room is ‘reserved as he left it and is » equaily appropriate to a man of . tastes, position and wealth. e hall is typical of hospitality, , Spacious and well lighted, amith a gallery under the ceiling, “from which the ladies could ob- eemerve the receptions which Mr. “Jefferson frequently gave to his constituents, and it furnished the “lace for the band when he gave ball. The library is not so large HR might be expected, and it is svmaid that Mr. Jefferson scattered 13,000 books, that subsequent- ely formed the nucleus of the Li- “ary of Congress, all over the house. Tradition says he kept TBBany of them in the billiard room, which is over the grand parlor. =" The stairways of Monticello, unlike those usually found in the jal mansions of Virginia, are “narrow, steep and crooked, and € story goes that the body of 7 Mrs. Jefferson, who died in one “ the upper chambers, could not carried down. The coffin had ‘to be lowered with ropes from the __ fallery of the great hall. Mr. Jef- ‘feFaon died in a room.on the first, * 4 ig arranged ‘in a peculiar way. The bed was placed in a low archway between two rooms and fitted very closely. One of the rooms belonged to Mr. Jef- m, the other to his wife, and y appear to have kept their own apartments as long as she lived. He undressed himself in his room and crawled into bed and crawled out on the same side in|? the morning, and she undressed and crept in and out of hers. «» Jefferson’s birthplace is in sight HF the portico of his mansion. The “house was burned many years ago, * and Jefferson traded the old farm a aeres for a bow! of arrack When Jefferson died, the funeral services at Monticello were simple and impressive. Dorsey, the gardener, dug a grave beside that of Dabney. Carr, the friend of Jefferson’s boyhood. Thomas Jefferson Randolph erected a mormument in this little cemetery the.year after the death of his lather, Thomas Jefferson. It chipped away by relic hunt- ers, and in 1851 was replaced by another of the same pattern, paid for by professors of‘the University of Virginia, the institution which Jefferson had founded and which always remained close to his heart.
