PREFACE Old, CapUol and Frankfort Guide is a product of the Federal Writers' Project of the Works Progress Adn1inistration in Ken­ tucky. It is designed primarily as a catalogue of the contents of the Old Capitol Building which houses the Kentucky State Historical Society. The tours through the building are intended to expedite a trip for the casual visitor, while the catalogue is intended to aid the student or research worker who is interested in a more detailed study of the contents of the building. All objects in the building have been systematically renumbered according to the catalogue. Certain outstanding points of interest in the city of Frankfort are described and located in a chapter devoted to the city. The editors particularly wish to acknowledge their gratitude for the guidance, assistance, and supervision of Mrs. Jouett Taylor Cannon, secretary of the Kentucky State Historical Society, Miss Nina Visscher, librarian, Miss Lockett. Smith, curator, and Mr. Bayless Hardin, assistant librarian. Without their cooperation this wor,k could never have been completed. They also appreciate the cooperation and assistance of Mr. Harry McChesney, president of the Kentucky State Historical Society, and publisher of the book. He has been a congenial and sym­ pathetic friend throughout the life of the project.

HISTORICAL SI(ETCH OF FRANI(FORT Frankfort ( 504 alt., 11,692 pop.), Kentucky's capital city, lies in a deep, narrow valley encircled by rolling hills cut through by the deep-flowing, winding Kentucky River. As the vistor rounds the curves of the steep highways that descend the high limestone cliffs, there suddenly unfolds to the vision the city, with its com­ pact business area, its checkered streets with their tree-sheltered homes, and the New Capitol that lifts its gleaming white dome high above the roofs and spires of the town. As the river in its meanderings thrusts first against the eastern, then against the western bluffs, it separates the city into north and south sides, the two connected by three bridges. The north side e1nbraces the downtown business section, the Old Capitol, and the older residential area; the south side, chiefly residential, expands be­ yond the New Capitol. Along Main and intersecting streets, old buildings of brick and stone recall the business activities of more than a hundred years. Modern buildings, substantial but unim­ posing, serve the needs of a clientele that is a cross section of Kentucky life. Politics dominate the scene when Frankfort becomes the temporary hon1e of the State executives and legislators-an ever­ coming and ever-going group that brings a metropolitan vitality to the scene. During the rest of the year Frankfort is an old­ fashioned country town, its streets filled with a leisurely-moving, chattering crowd. Farmers with their families from the rich agricultural lands in the vicinity come in, especially on Satur­ days, to do the-ir trading. Workers, white and Negro, from the factories and distilleries in the environs, throng the streets on holidays or when the work of the day is over. Daily, among all these, move men and women whose traditions root deeply in the past, who live on quiet streets, in old houses rich in history. On July 16, 1773, Hancock Taylor, deputy surveyor of Fin­ castle County, Va., of which the region of Kentucky was then a part, surveyed the site of the present city of Frankfort for Robert McAf ee of the McAfee Company of Virginia. This sur­ vey, however, was never recorded. When this fact was discovered in the late winter of 1784 by Humphrey Marshall, he had the site of old Frankfort on the north side of the river surveyed in his 7 own name while working as an attorney for the estate of Francis McConnell. Marshall even secured a grant frorn Virginia giving him a title to the land. The l\ilcConnell heirs considered this acquisition by Marshall a breach of trust which resulted in a famous lawsuit known as Patrick vs. Marshall. The Court ruled that one-half the profits realized by Marshall in the deal should go to the McConnell heirs. Before the suit was settled, however, Gen. James Wilkinson, friend of George Wash­ ington, and at one time commander of the American Ar1nies in the West, bought from Marshall in 1786 the site of old Frank­ fort for the equivalent of $433 in present-day cur­ rency. Wilkinson's title was none too clear, but in October, 1786, he was instrumental in getting an act approved by the Virginia Legislature setting aside 100 acres as a town site, providing a ferry with fixed transportation rates across the river to his home, which was at the southwest corner of Wapping and "\Vilkinson Streets. The town, as originally platted by the general, extended from the site of the New Capital Hotel westward to the river, and from Fort Hill that overlooks the north end of the city to the old bridge that connects the downtown district with the south side. Within this area Wilkinson laid out streets and named them in honor of himself and friends. Ann Street, which runs north and south of the New Capital Hotel, was named for the general's wife. Mero Street was named for the Spanish Governor General of the Province of Louisiana who became involved with Wilkin­ son and others in the Burr conspiracy. Wapping Street, on which the post office is located, was named for a famous London street at the suggestion of a visiting Englishman. Most of the streets bear the names of early An1ericans who were n1ore or less famous. Frankfort was named for one Stephen Frank, about whom very little is known, except that in 1780 an Indian foray occurred in the vicinity of Frankfort where a party, including Frank, from Bryan Station, enroute to the Salt Licks of Jefferson County, was attacked by the Indians near a ford in the river at the mouth of Devil's Hollow. Frank was killed and from that incident the place was referred to as Frank's Ford. By the time General Wilkinson got possession of the new town site, it had already become known by contraction as Frankfort. Although General Wilkinson is spoken of as the father of Frankfort, before 1792, when Kentucky was admitted to the Union, he had sold his interest in the site to Andrew Holmes for 300,000 pounds of tobacco "to be delivered at New Orleans." It

8 was largely through the ingenuity and generosity of Holmes that Frankfort became the capital of the State. When the General Assembly of Kentucky met in Lexington on the fifth of November, 1792, it adjourned to meet on the 22d of December "to hold its next session in the house of Andrew Holmes, at Frankfort, on the Kentucky River." The terms of the offer that led to the choice of Frankfort as the permanent capital over all other contestants were: 1st, by Andrew Holmes, to convey to the government: (a) For seven years, the house and tenement lately occupied by Gen. James Wilkinson; (b) Absolutely, the lots marked Public Ground, Nos. 58, 59, 68, 7 4, 7 5, 79, 83, and 84; ( c) Choice of 30 lots yet unsold, or alternate-choice of half of all the unsold lots, and if more space is requisite will lay off into half-acre lots fifty acres more and convey one-half of them; (d) The rents of warehouse for 7 years; {e) 10 boxes 10xl2 window glass, 1,500 lbs. nails, £ 50 worth of locks and hinges, and an equivalent of stone and scantling for build­ ing, all delivered upon the Public Ground--or, in place of the latter, stone that will build 1,590 perches of wall in any part of Frankfort, and the use of his sawmill, carriage wagon, and two good horses until a sufficiency of scantling for a state house is procured, and the privilege of timber from any part of his tract; 2d, the Bond, dated Aug. 9, 1792, of 8 citizens of Frankfort­ Harry Innes, Nat Sanders, Bennett Pemberton, Benjamin Craig, Jere Craig, Wm. Haydon, Daniel James, and Giles Samuel-to pay to the commissioners $3,000 in specie (gold or silver). By such shrewd bargaining was the capital of the State assured to the little village on the Kentucky River. The choice settled amicably the claims of Lexington and Louisville, chief contenders for the honor, and, by the fact of its central location, satisfied the remainder of the State. The first statehouse was erected on the "Public Grounds" in 1793 and was occupied by the General Assembly on Monday, November 3, 1794. Twice in the early years of statehood, the statehouse was burned. The present Old Capitol, dating from 1827-1829, was designed by a 22-year-old architect, Gideon Shryock of Lexington, Ky., at a cost of $95,000. The timber·s used in its construction were home-grown, the stone in its walls quarried from the river banks. Within its walls were trained in statecraft such men as Henry Clay, John G. Crittenden, Ninian Edwards, John G. Carlisle, John M. Harlan, and others who served the Nation with distinction. The Old Capitol Building, now more than a century old, is the hon1e of the Kentucky Historical 9 Society and houses invaluable relics, documents, and mementoes of the past. Throughout the nineteenth century there was continuous debate and controversy over the location of the capitol. In 1909 that question was settled for all time by the completion of the New State Capitol across the river on the south side. The rapid growth of the residential area on the south side, the paving of streets and alleys, the modernization of old business houses, and the erection of new buildings, have brought about within the past 30 years a transformation of the city that has left the quiet charm of its earlier years little changed. The Capital Bridge, constructed in 1937-1938 is the most recent of many civic improve­ ments that include a modern system of public schools and play­ grounds, and an excellent hospital. The industrial history of Frankfort has been that of the surrounding region, modified in a measure by its location on the navigable Kentucky River. Agriculture and its closely associated industries predominate. Tobacco is extensively cultivated, and hemp, another of the early-day industries, still survives. One of the few remaining hemp mills in the United States is just north of the town. Long prior to the prohibition era Frankfort attained a high position in the manufacturing of whisky and today claims one of the largest shoe factories in the South, and the making of fishing reels, an industry that has survived for more than a century. Quadrennial changes of administration have caused a shift every four years in a large portion of the population of Frank­ fort, although with each such change some families remain permanently and gradually become assimilated in the community life. Thus a large proportion of the population is either directly connected with the State government or descended from former State officials. On the hill overlooking the town is "Kentucky's Westminster Abbey," where rest the remains of the great pioneer, , and his wife, Rebecca; poets, statesmen, and soldiers whose deeds have brought fame and glory to Kentucky, are buried there. There are other spots in Frankfort to which the visitor is directed in the chapter on "Points of Interest" that are entwined in the history of Frankfort. The flood of 1937 caused the abandonment of the old State Reformatory, one of the oldest penal institutions in the Nation. The water rose to a depth of six feet within the walls, and the entire population of some two thousand nine hundred prisoners lO were removed to a stockade on top of the hill east of town. Steps were already under way to construct a modern State prison in Oldham County, near La Grange, and the evacuation caused by the flood expedited this program, and the prisoners were never returned to the old reformatory.

FRANKFORT KENTUCKY 1938 POIN'rS OF INTEREST IN FRANKFORT 1. The NEw CAPITOL (open; guides), south end of Capitol Ave., stands within an extensive park area on a gentle slope that overlooks Kentucky River. The don1inant feature of the Bedford stone structure is the high central don1e raised on a graceful Ionic peristyle and crowned with a slender lantern cupola. rrhe lower story, ou a high granite base, is surrounded by a broad paved terrace with balustrade. The exterior, designed with n1ajestic symmetry in ueo-classic architecture, is adorned with Ionic colonnades, entablature, and crowning l>alustrade. Its simple rectangular lines are broken only by the sculptured pedi­ ment above the north entrance and the su1aller end pavilions. The heroic fe1nale figure standing in the center of the pedhnent represents Kentucky; her attendants are History, Progress, Plenty, Law, Art, and Labor. At the left end of the pedin1ent is the State seal; at the right, Indian figures watch with apprehen­ sion the approach of civilizafion. On the first floor, immediately beneath the massive dome, is the Hall of Fan1e, where stand memorials to four eminent Kentuckians-, , Henry Clay, and Dr. Ephraim McDowell. The heroic bronze figure of Lincoln stands in the center hall. The sculptor was A. A. Weinmann; the donor, James B. Speed of Louisville. The Jefferson Davis statue, the work of Frank Hibbard, was the gift of the Daughters of_ the Confederacy. Henry Clay is represented by a plaster figure taken from C. H. Niehaus' statue, which stands in Statuary Hall, in the Capitol at Washington. The statue which honors the n1emory of Dr. Ephraim McDowell was taken from the marble statue (also by Niehaus) in the Capitol at Washington. Lunette murals by T. Gilbert White of Michigan, along the corridor walls, portray events in the early history of Kentucky. The building, designed by Frank M. Andrews, was completed in 1909 at a cost of $1,820,000. The sculptures adorning the pediment were designed by Charles Henry Niehaus· of , and executed by Peter Rossack of Austria. On the ground of the capitol is the ExECUTIVE MANSION (private), home of Kentucky's Governors. Its architectural de­ tails harmonize with the Capitol Building. 2. The OLD CAPITOL, now State Historical Society Building (open 9-112 a. m., 1-4:30 p. m., guides, free), St. Clair St. and 13 Broadway, occupies the center of a bluegrass iawn beautified by shrubbery and century-old trees. Under one of the fine old ehns to the right of the entrance many of the early Governors have taken the oath of office. Near the approach to the building, set in the concrete walk, is a bronze marker showing where fell at the hand of an assassin while contesting the gover­ norship in 1900,. The building, designed by Gideon Shryock, a young architect of Lexington, was erected n1ore than a century ago (1827-1830). Constructed of limestone, known as "Kentucky River Marble,'' this nobly proportioned edifice is an excellent example of Greek Revival architecture. The principal facade is embellished by an Ionic hexastyle portico. The coltnnns of the portico, each four feet in diameter and 33 feet high, carry the weight of a massive severely plain pediment. The cornice that extends from each side of the pediment, and continues entirely around the building, carries out the unadorned design of the main feature. The walls are severely plain in appearance. The window casings are of stone unadorned. Above the roof rises a cupola, its square base topped with a domed circular lantern, 22 feet in diameter. Inside the building a broad corridor extends to the rotunda beneath the dome, where a transverse cor­ ridor leads to exits on each side of the building.· From the main floor to the balcony rises the beautifully designed double stairway of self-supporting stone. In its construction the architect made free use of the principles that govern the construction and sup­ port of the Roman arch. The rotunda is arched with a spandrel dome, the interior of which is finished with raised panels richly ornan1ented in stucco. The State Historical Society is custodian of a rich collection of Kentuckiana (see TOUR THROUGH THE OLD CAPITOL). 3. LIBERTY HALL (open 9-5, adm. 25c), 218 Wilkinson St., built in 1796, was originally the home of Hon. John Brown, first United States Senator from Kentucky, and occupied continuously by his heirs until 1937 when it became a State shrine. The house stands in the corner of a large lawn and garden which extends in the rear to the river. According to a tradition in the Brown family, the building was designed by Thomas Jefferson, friend of Brown and his instructor in law. This edifice, simple and dignified in its lines, is a perfect example of the Georgian plan. The front facade is relieved by a slightly projecting central pavilion, with crowning pediment and graceful Palladian window. The interior has a central hall with spanning arch and stairway, flanked by two rooms on each side, with the kitchen wing in the rear. The interior wood,vork is hand-carved in classic design. 14 In early days a large ballroom on the second floor was the scene of many entertainn1ents that were part of the family schen1e of living. Men and women of distinction-Presidents Monroe, Har­ rison, .Jackson, Taylor. Theodore Roosevelt, and General Lafayette, ,1mong othen;----were entertained within iti-; walls. The furnish­ ingR 1rned by the Brown family are still in the house. These include a portrait of one of the n1embers of the family, painted hy Gilbert Stuart. 4. The OnLANoo BnowN HousE (private), 202 ,vnldnson St., was built in lS.35 by John Brown of Liberty Hall, for his son. The east facade of this si111ple square brick structure is crowned by a low pediment pierced by a fan-shaped window. A one-story, tetrastyle Ionic portico shelters the rectangular doorway. This house, designed by Gideon Shryock, architect of the Old Capitol, is one of· the earliest Greek Revival houses in Kentucky. 5. Con.~ El: oF CELEBRITIES is a small area comprising approxi­ mately four acres, bounded by Wapping, ,vilkinson, Washington and Main Streets. Around the two Brown houses as a nucleus, there developed a remarkable neighborhood, the birthplace or later hon1e of two justices of the United States Supren1e Court, two n1embers of the Cabinet, nine United States Senators, six Representatives, five Ambassadors and three Admirals of the -a partial list· of the distinguished honors acquired by Frankfort men in their service to their country. 6. FRANKFORT CEMETERY (open), E. Main St., lying on a bluff high above Kentucky River, is the burial place of many of Ken­ tucky's distinguished men and women. A driye (R) circles the grounds. Near the entrance is the GOEBEL MoNu~rENT, a large granite block surmounted by a bronze statue of Gov. Wililam Goebel. The monument was erected to the n1en1ory of the Gover­ nor who, in 1900, was assassinated on the steps of the Old Capitol. A footpath winds downward from the drive to the BOONE MEl\IORIAL. Here Daniel and Rebecca Boone lie in a wooded spot on the edge of the bluff that looks down upon the town and winding river. The monolithic limestone monun1ent that n1arks the single grave was quarried from the Kentucky River cliffs at Boonesboro. Scenes in the life of the old pioneer and his wife are depicted on panels of Italian marble,, inset on the four sides of the monolith. In the center of an oval plot ( L), known as STATE CEMETERY, rises the tall shaft of Carrara marble erected by the State to the n1emory of those who fell in foreign wars. In the circle of soldier dead is the grave of Theodore O'Hara, soldier-poet, author of the Bivouac of the Dead. 15 7. STATE ARSENAL (not open), E. Main St., was erected in 1850 as a storage house for equipment and 1naterials belonging to the State Militia. The forbidding, gray stone and brick struc­ ture, with its battlen1ents and turrets, gains distinction from its commanding position rather than from its size or style of architecture. 8. CAPITAL BRIDGE, E. Main St. and Capitol Ave., ,vas erected in 1937-1938 in men1ory of those who fell in all wars. It unites north and south Frankfort, crossing Kentucky River at a level that insures uninterrupted highway communication in the event of a flood similar to that of 1937. Spectacular lighting effects are a noteworthy feature. 9. OLD Busr~Ess DISTRICT, between Capital Bridge and the intersection of E. Main and Ann Sts., contains the earliest houses built in Frankfort. The two-story, gray STOKE HousE, · 101 "\Vest Main Street, abutting the sidewalk, constructed of Kentucky River limestone, was built by John Hampton, one of the early settlers of the town. A few doors beyond is an OLD Loo HousE, clapboarded, one of the first in the growing village. It has served various uses since first it was built as a home. Doorways, windows, worn thresholds, chimneys, reveal the age of the old buildings which extend to the Ann Street corner. At the south­ east corner of Main and Ann Streets, where there is a jog in the building line, a bronze marker, attached to the wall which abuts the street, tells that near here was driven the FIR8T SURVEY STAKI<.: of the original survey of Frankfort.

16 TOUR TIIR.OUGH TIIE OLD CA.PITOL BUILDING The stately OLD CAPITOL, standing in what was in 1827 the very heart of Frankfort, is little changed in appearance since the early days when history was being made there. Acquired by the State Historical Society in 1920 and converted to its present use as a museum, the building contains a wide variety of antiq­ uities, including military relics, historical paintings, documents, costumes, weapons, and household gear. A 111assive double door, set within a broad, classically de­ signed portico, gives entrance to the building. The floors of the wide hall are of "Kentucky River marble," polished by more than a century of use. On the walls hang paintings which recali Kentucky's historic past. Among these is a portrait of Landon Sneed, by Chester Harding, Massachusetts portrait painter who spent several years in Kentucky; Nicola l\1arschall's copy of the portrait of Daniel Boone by Harding; a portrait of Richard Meni­ fee, said to be by Oliver Frazer, a pupil of Matthew Harris Jouett, Kentucky's "old Master"; portraits of Abraha1n Lincoln and Jefferson Davis, by unidentified artists; and a painting of the dramatic Simon Kenton's Ride by ,valcutt. Facing the entrance is a brass cannon, first captured at the Battle of Saratoga, later lost to the British by Hull's surrender of Detroit during the , and recaptured by Kentucky troops at the Battle of the Than1es. Just back of the cannon is a multi-barreled gun called a "street sweeper", used during the War between the States. Rooms open on each side of the hall, that on the left leading to the LIBRARY (open to research workers), containing about nine thousand volumes, many of them now extremely rare. A111ong these is the Stephenson collection, presented to the His­ torical Society by Misses :Mary and Martha Stephenson, in mem­ ory of their brother, the late ,v. "\V. Stephenson, historian of Mercer County; the Lewis Jones Library, containing rare Eng­ lish genealogical material; and the \,Villard Rouse Jillson collec­ tion of historical publications, including maps of the Kentucky Geological Survey. In addition there are many bound volumes of important newspapers of Kentucky and valuable source mate­ rial contained in copies of ton1bstone inscriptions and Bible rec­ ords. The society adds fr01n time to time publications of other 17 State historical and patriotic organizations, as well as all avail­ able material relating to Kentucky. None of the books are circulated, but the library is in constant use by those engaged in historical and genealogical research. The A1w111YES Romu, across the hall, contains a collection of State archives, dating- fron1 1792, when Kentucky attained statehood, to 1915. These records, transferred from the office of the Secretary of State to the custody of the Historical Society in 1926, consist of bound volumes of executive and legislative journals and numerous docun1ents kept in file case8. Military records, including letterbooks, pay rolls, certificates of service, and other data relating to Kentucky's part in various wars, cov­ ering a period of n1ore than one hundred years, are also on file. These were transferred from the office of the Adjutant General to the Historical Society in 1935. Valuable source n1aterial is contained in tax lists, some as early as 1787, bearing the name "Tithables." These contain the names of white males over twenty-one years of age, with the amount of land, number of slaves, horses, and cattle, as reported annually fron1 each county in the State. Within the ROTUNDA, opposite the entrance on the n1ain floor, is a section of the first railway track laid in the State in 1831. The stone sleepers, running parallel with the rail, proved unsuccessful, and were followed by the modern cross tie. There is a section of water pipe constructed of wood, a portion of Frankfort's first water system laid from Cedar Cove Spring in 1804. On the right wall is an old print of the First ovariotomy Operation, performed by Dr. Ephraim McDowell in Danville, Ky., 1809. In the right wing of the transverse hall are three glass cases of mounted birds found in Kentucky. Perhaps the finest architectural feature of the entire build­ ing is the graceful CIRCULAR STAIRWAY which rises from the floor of the rotunda to the balcony above. Designed of Kentucky River marble by Gideon Shryock, it is so constructed that the secret of its structure is the keystone at the top. On the circu­ lar walls of the stairway are engravings fron1 the original edi­ tion of Birds of America by the great ornithologist, .John James Audubon, and a map of Kentucky made in 1818 from actual sur­ vey by Dr. Luke Munsell. It was the first map to be officially accepted by the State. On the walls of the rotunda balcony on the second floor are paintings by Kentucky artists. These include: LUtle Blonde Girl, an original by Frank Duveneck, a copy of Whistling Boy by the same artist, Brittany Woman K·nitting by Dixie Selden, 18 pupil of Duveneck, and two groups of water colors by Frankfort artists, Robert Burns vVilson, and Paul Sawyier. There are also marble busts of Henry Clay, Andrew Jackson, John J. Critten­ den, and Gen. Jan1es Taylor, said to be the best work of Joel T. Hart, Kentucky's sculptor. A glass case in the second floor hall contains the mohair lining of the great fur coat worn by George ,vashington at Valley Forge; another contains the uniform of Rear Admiral Lucien Young. The SEXATE CIL\l\IIU~H, at the head of the stairs, has on itl::I walls a notable collection of portraits, all Governors of Kentucky, beginning· with ( 1792-1796, 1812-1816). On the east wall is a three-quarter length portrait of Abraham Lincoln by Charles Sneed \Villiams. In this roon1 is the 18-piece silver service from the battleship J(entucky; a fine old harpsichord, brought to Kentucky prior to 1830 by the father of Gen. John Hunt Morgan; a glass case containing a plaster bust of Stephen Collins Foster, and an old candle holder, said to have been used by the musician while writing My Old Kentucky Hom,e. Another case contains valuable old docun1ents, one bearing the signature of Patrick Henry, another that of John Quincy Adams. A quaint corner cupboard contains rare old china. An1ong war relics is a horn made of wood by Capt. Robert Collins, used during the ,var of 1812, and a silver-mounted, black leather saddle cap­ tured from a Mexican officer at the Battle of Buena Vista in 1847. A feature of this room is the spacious elevated lobby at one end, separated from the main body of the chamber by Ionic columns supporting the entablature, with cornice and frieze extending around the room. The ceiling is richly ornamented in classic design. The SEN A'l'E CL0AKIWOl\I ( now the office of the curator). on the right of the stairway, contains the Collins Library purchased by the State of Kentucky from the estate of Richard H. Collins, historian, author of History of Kentucky (1874). This library contains n1ore than two thousand volumes; many of the books are on historical and religious subjects, and are very old and rare. On the walls of the room are old engrav­ ings and prints of leaders of the Confederacy. On the north side of the rotunda balcony is the door leading into the HousE OI!"' REPHBSE~TATIVEs, which contains, in addition to valuable historical paintings, a collection of relics and mate­ rials portraying the everyday life of the pioneer. The out­ standing feature of this room is the copy by Oliver Frazer of Gilbert Stuart's full length portrait of George Washington. This picture hangs directly over the speaker's desk from which Henry 19 Clay and other great orators addressed the house. On the left of the entrance is CoNFEDER.\TE CORNER containing 1nany relics of the period from 1861 to 1865. There is a portrait of Jefferson Davis by J. P. Walker, rare old prints of Confederate generals, flags, documents, old newspapers and costumes of the period. Grouped around the mantel in the northwest corner of the roon1 is a collection of household utensils of the pioneer period. Over the mantel hangs an imaginary portrait of Daniel Boone by "\Villian1 Allen. On the left of the speaker's desk, in a small glass case, is a blanket woven by the wife and daughter of Simon Kenton, and on the right the first treasury chest of the State of Ken­ tucky. Nearby in a window stand the old scales from the State treasurer's office, used to weigh the bits of gold money before coins of specific value came into use. On each side of the desk are furled battle flags or Kentucky. Among these historic relics, most prized of all, is the case containing the long rifle, powder horn, and a few other personal belongings of Daniel Boone. In the same case is a child's blue calico dress worn by little Betsy Grant, niece of Daniel Boone, during the siege of Bryan Station. In this case reposes the pistol used by Aaron Burr in his duel with Alexander Hamilton. The full length portrait of Lafayette, painted from life by Matthew Harris Jouett, occupies a prom­ inent place on the north wall with William Frye's portrait of Henry Clay. Conspicuous on the east wall is William Allen's portrait of Gen. Zachary Taylor on his famous horse, "Old Whitey." Cases in this room contain collections of various articles of wearing apparel and handicraft of pioneer women. In the gallery on the south side of the room is a fine collection of firearms used in the wars in which Kentuckians have taken part.

Gentlen1en I have the inexpressible satisfaction to acquaint you that at day-break of the 11th instant pursuant to my direction from sundry leading Gentlemen in the Colonies of Massachusetts :Bay and Conn. I took the Fortress of Ticonderoga with about one hundred and thirty Green Mountain Boys. Col. Easton with about forty-seven veteran soldiers distinguished themselves in the action. Colonel Arnold entered the Fortress with me side by side the guard were so surprised that contrary to our expectation did not fire on us but fled with precipitancy. We immediately entered the fortress and took the Garrison pris­ oners without blood-shed or any opposition they consisted of one Captain and Lieut. and forty-two men. Little more need be said. You know Governor Carlton of Canada will exert himself to re-take it, and as your county 'is nearer than any other part of the Colonies and as your inhabitants have thoroughly manifested their zeal in the cause of their country I expect immediate assista,nce from you, both in men and provision. You can not exert yourself too much in so glorious a cause, the number <1f men need be more at the first till the other Colonies can have time to muster. I am apprehensive of a sudden and quick attack. Pray be quick to our relief and send us 500 men immediately. Fail not, your friend and humble servant. Commander of Ticonderoga ETHAN ALLEN,

DANIEL BOONE RIFLE (CASE 24) This famous old rifle is 58 inches overall, with a 44-inch octagon-shaped barrel; 45 calibre and 7 point rifling; brass blade, front sight and an iron rear sight, with an unusually deep notch, insuring correct shading at all times. The original flintlock is intact and the rifle is equipped with the delicate system of set triggers found on the finest guns of this type. The trigger guard, with a convenient handhold and butt plate, are of plain metal construction. Four brass rings hold the barrel securely to the forearm. Tallow holes are on the right side of butt, used by those who preferred to carry the patches in the pocket of their 92 hunting shirts. The butt of the stock is rudely carved. On the right side are the intials ''D. B."; an ·Indian facing a tree with his tomahawk raised; the head and neck of a deer; the rising sun. On the left side is the cheek rest, below which is carved "Boons Best Fren"; on the right side of the forearm are cut fifteen notches. The full length stock is of walnut. The rifle bears every trace of a Powell Valley product.

BURR PISTOL (CASE 24) The famous pistol has been handed down in the Marshall family for several generations. Col. Thon1as Marshall, who fought in the A1nerican Army during the Revolution, was pre­ sented with a sword by the Continental Congress, in recogni­ tion of his bravery at the Battle of Brandywine. He built a home at Buck Pond in Woodford County in 1783, having emigrated from Virginia. It was his grandson, Thomas F. Marshall, who came into possession of the Burr pistol. Alexander Hamilton, statesman, was killed in a duel by Aaron Burr on July 11, 1804, on the banks of the Hudson River at Weehawken, N. J. Judge Van Ness, who was the second of Aaron Burr, marked the fatal pistol and gave it to Colonel James Bowie, together with its mate, the Hamilton pistol. Colonel Bowie wore the pair as belt pistols but lost the Hamilton pistol in swin1n1ing a bayou. Subsequently he gave the Burr pistol to Dr. Carr, the Superintendent of the United States Arsenal at Baltimore. Dr. Carr had acted as second for Thon1a8 F. Marshall in his duel with James Watson Webb, editor or the New York Courier and Enquirer, in which "\Vebb was shot in the knee and crippled for life. Dr. Carr presented the ,Burr pistol to Captain Marshall who afterwards gave it to his brother Edward C. Marshall. The latter carried it through the Mexican War, and at his death bequeathed it to Lewis Marshall. While in the possession of Captain Tom Marshall it was altered from a flint lock to the percussion lock. This famous dueling pistol was presented to the Kentucky State Historical Society by Mrs. Lewis ·Marshall, of Versailles, Ky., June 1, 1927.
