on Our Presidents

A BACHELOR PRESIDENT

1856-Democratic nominee for -
president.
AMES BUCHANAN was the last
. president to wrap his neck in a
stock, as Monroe was the last to wear
knee-breeches-and he was the last
of an era. An age passe'd away as
he passed out of the White House.
After Buchanan's birth at a Penn
sylvania log cabin, his father, who
was an Irish immigrant, prospered as
a country storekeeper and was able
to send his son to college. But the
college sent him back as a wild spirit
that it could not taine. The pastor
of the scandalized family begged and
obtained a chance for the wayward
youth, who Improved it so well that
he graduated first in his class. Never
theless, the still unforgiving faculty
denied him the honors of his rank.
This would be but a dull story of
law and politics were it not for a
single tragic episode which east a
shadow over the whole after life of
olr bachelor president, the only presi
dent to die a bachelor. A young wom
an, to whom Buchanan was engaged
in early manhood, a daughter of the
wealthiest family in the county, wrote
him a letter of dismissal under the
spell of a jealousy which had been
aroused by gossips: Pride on both

to his heart. WVhen his executors

ex-Ipresident had left ini a blank vault,
they foundio aonig thlem a little ipack
et of treasured love letters from his
sweetheart of long ago. But in ac
cordance with tile request written on
thle outside, those faded memlentoes
of hlis only love were bunrned without
breaking the seal on them.
