Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Dolly Madison Mr. And Mrs. James Franklin Hood, at their residence in Washington, were the hosts of the Dolly Madison Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, the evening of May 19, 1911. At their request a paper was prepared for the entertainment of the guests. That paper is the nucleus of this elaboration. If, perchance, the reader is entertained, the acknowledgment is due to them. The Public Ledger, Philadelphia, June 2, 1912, in an interesting article, says that Dolly Madison, probably above all other American women, has, for some not any too well understood reason, been regarded with a sympathetic and sentimental interest. And, The Evening Star, in its able editorial column. May 12, 1912, has: "A little myth is mixed with her fame, but that is to be allowed for. It inheres in all fame." That the unfading fame of Mrs. Madison has its foundation more on fact or more on fancy, the reader, it is believed, has, within these pages, sufficient evidence to pass judgment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Unpublished Letters of Dolly Madison to Anthony Morris Relating to the Nourse Family of the Highlands Dolly Madison's name, to this day, conjures up dreams of charm and loveliness beyond those of any other woman of her generation. She was fascinating in her youth and her exciting and delightful personality lasted down through the years. As the wife of the fourth president of the United States she was the acknowledged leader of the society of the new nation. In that period, many of the forms and Observances which had prevailed in the days of a court circle still lingered, and despite the rulings of a democratic con gress against titles savoring of royalty, she was often spoken of as Her Majesty, perhaps as much in tribute to her loveliness as a mark of respect for her position.

OLD AGE AND DEATH And where during all these varying experiences of Mrs. Madison's life, when she stood so much in need of counsel and support, was the son who should have rendered both? This was the question which all Mrs. Madison's friends asked, and none could answer. For his mother, her feelings had been long ago summed up in a last vain appeal to his better nature, when she wrote: "I have said in my late letters as well as in this all that I thought sufficient to influence you. 1 must now put my trust in God alone." Payne Todd's life presents a melancholy picture of wasted opportunities, of grace and charm blurred and at last obliterated by gluttony and dissipation, of demonstrative affection transformed into filial indifference and ingratitude by long years of self-indulgence. Yet, while this undutiful son was doing all in his power to break his mother's heart, he per267 suadcd himself that he loved her and intended to do much, but always in the future, to make her happy. When his debts had made necessary the sale of Montpellier and its slaves, he soothed his regrets by building on his estate nearby, known as "Toddsbirth," a strange conglomeration of cottages, one of which he intended for his mother's occupancy, and so arranged that by one of its long windows she could enter a great tower wherein he had planned a ball-room and state dining-apartment. Of course lack of funds prevented the completion of this eccentric home, as well as the carrying out of his scheme for a silk-farm, for which, after his usual unbusinesslike fashion, he had brought over from France a number of silk manufacturers before even planting mulberry-trees or hatching silk-worms. His appetite he gratified as freely as his whims; and while Mrs. Madison and her...
