His wife was Sophy Tayloe, a member of the well-known family of the Octagon House in Washington and beautiful old Mount Airy in Virginia. As a widow in her old age, she had a steady admirer, a General, who came every afternoon at the same time in his Victoria and took her to drive. I can see her now, a small, slight figure in her cape and little black bonnet tied under her chin and holding one of those quaint little ruffled sunshades to keep the sun out of her eyes.
