Great Love Stories of History By Albert Payson Terhune Bur, Big ENOUGH To RUN HID | NO, 42-JEROME BONAPARTE AND MISS PATTERSON. | NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD boy-—youngest of a Corsican lawyer@ A thirteen children—fell in love, in 1803, with an elghteen-year-oMl girl—eldest of an Irish-American shipbuilder's thirteen children. |The lad was Jerome Bonaparte, youngest brother of Napoleon Bonaparte, who was at that time First Consul of France and rising fast toward the ‘Imperial throne and the mastery of all Europe, The girl was Elizabeth Patterson, whose father—an Irish emigrant—was the foremost shipowner and richest man in Baltimore. Jerome was hoineliest of the handsome Bonapartes. Elizabeth was most beautiful of the good-looking Pattersona Here is the story: Jerome was the “spoilt child” of his family, He was a lazy, rather in- competent spendthrift, with not one atom of Napoleon's genius. Neverthe- Jess he was a lovable youngster, and could usually wheedle even his tron brother Into overlooking his faults and granting him favors. He had been started on a naval career; and, at elghteen, was Ifentenant, !n command of the French brig of war Epervier. While crulsing in Southern American waters his ship was chased by English war vessels and he resigned his command, escaping to Norfolk, Va. Thence he went to Baltim: where, on the strength of his brother's great fame, he was cordially weleomed. Jerome planned to take the first available vessel to France. But at a ball he met Elizabeth (known as “Betsy") Patterson, belle of the Maryland city. The couple fell in love at first sight, and the young man's sailing was indefinitely postponed, Miss Patterson was ambitious. To be courted by the brother of Europe's fore- most celebrity was flattering. She and Jerome became engage’. Her father foresaw trouble and packed Elizabeth off to visit friends in Virginia, But she and Jerome would not be parted. So at Inst Mr. Patterson gave his un- willing consent, and the marriage was per med by the Catholic Bishop of. Baltimore, on Christmas Day, 1803. According to one biographer, Jerome wore at the ceremony a laced and embroidered purple satin coat, the white satin-lined talls of wh: fell to his heels. is hair was powdered, Dia- mond buckles adorned his shoes. The bride's dress was an Indian muslin, whose thin fiimsiness shocked some of the more Puritanical wedding guests. Instead of going at once to France, the lovers settled for the tin Baltimore, to find out how Napoleon would take the news.
