When the American historical novel ccmes Into fnhion , vrritos "llalBton" in the Now Yotk Timea. I know of an unmarked grave up the Hudson which will Uinpt pilgrimages from the novelist. It is the grave of ono of the moat unique figures in the history of tin * nntion'a first hundred years , John Vaudorlyn , a country lad of revolutionary times who roao to honnts , kbo v tunny of tbo cholo cat joys ( f the woild , iras the friend of rulers on two continent" , nnd tinnlly the rlctim of a brokou heatt , lies buried there. It is a strange story , that of John Van- dorlyn's ciroor. A boy in the strcot , with a bit of charcoal and tomothlng nkin to impudence ho drew on n bhcksmith'a door a caricature of n visitor to the wee village of Kingston. That visitor was Aaron Burr , nnd ho uaw the plcluto law It and smiled , and nikod questions tbjut its perpetrator. When Aaron Burr went back to his law oflico In New York ho took the Ind with him. lie bought him book ) , directed hia studies , and finally placed him as a pupil under Gilbert Stuart , who , In Philadelphia , was fit.ijhlnp his famous portiait of Washington. Studies In Paris and Roma followed. The charcoal sketcher of a COUUT/ town wan develop * lug into a wonderful painter. In compe tition at Paric , whore all the artists of Europe were striving for honors , ho places a cold , rout-li , harsh picture cold , rough , and harsh at least in contrast flilhtho gaudy colorings which all the rest of the world haugs up. ' MarluH on the Ruins uf Carthago" ho called It. The old Roman hoio was roproieutod atnul- log alone , lorrowful , yet defiant , amid the wreck of former g'ory. Napoleon marched through the great art gallery. When ho faced the picture ho halted , catno to a dead standstill , and In ndmii.v tion was mute for minutes. "Give the modal to that , ' ho demanded. John Vandeilyn was famous. Atid oil the fates rushed forward to make him glad. Aaron Barr was proud. Ho was grate ful , too , for fortune had dealt unkindly with him meantime. Ho had "striven for the presidency of his country and tai lost. The murder of Hamilton made htm on exile. Generous Interest it was t a" he received upon the money ho had given Vandorlyn , who was now a how in Europe's amtocratlc circles. The artist shared all his honors and all hi i gold with his old-timo benefactor , the man who had become to ono hemisphere the very personification of evil , ana yet who in earlier data , with no selfUh aim or hope , had taken from humble placp a strange lad to spend money and affection npon. Biographical dictionaries and art his tories tell about Vandorlyn s p ofcssional achievements. I ca < ono hing about them heiv. Hia "Ariadne" is famous the wo Id over. His panel in the national capit 1 of "Tho Landing of C < lumbiis" vfns done in answer to his country's u gcnt icqucst. All this everybody knows. I luvxo learned aonuthing wide y different , something far more interesting , for as the world wags love far outst. ips pt ofcs sional achievement. John Ya-jdcrlyn never married. V\hy , has no\er been told in ptint. The fo * relat vcs who sur vive descendants of a brother talk sometimes of a omanco in his strange catcor. Ono of them has ( gossiped tome mo , and 1 have listened with a deep in- tcro.it. John Vandeilyn loved Thcodosia Burr , Aaron Buir's only child , and ihco dosia Burr loved John Vandcrlyn. Reared at susccptiblo ages in the same house , love \\as not unna ural in a brotherly and sisterly fashion ; so far the great politician was pleased. A letter ; om Paris 'hat ' fo 1 into his hands through : ie confidence of his beautiful daughter liowed him tliat the young artist was ividing his luno between sights in the .ouvro _ and thoughts in Now York. In .his letter John Vanderlyn poured out ! io story of his strong affection and asked he girl to promise that some day , when > lace and foitiuo should bo won she ihould bo his wifo. Aaron Burr first smiled , then acoffocl , and finally , In anger , iesutd ordore. Theodosla obeyed. A dutiful girl she wai , for in dting her father s will she did 't knowing that there was moro than , a jght reason for the moment on y in his direction. Ho told her plainly of other plans arranged for her ; plans which eac- rificod all of her own tuturo to that < i ho parent whom she worshipped. Poli tico were at the bottom , ThU was before fore the h'storic ' contest in congress w th Jtffdrsou for the presidency. Aaron Burr needed f iendp , close and itiluon- tial. T/1 rough the gift ot a daughter's hand no would win what strategy might otherwise tike from him. He Mould mmry her to a connection of a powerful political family o the state , and influence at Albany hith erto lacking might bo depended upon. There mn willingness with the lover , moro willingness than perception. A slltjhtlng word waj spoken cf John VanderJyn ' 'a pauper" was the phrase the courting lover used. He used it but once. The blood tf Aaron Burr mounted to the cheek of the daughter , and with an airthut was bitter as bitter might bo she dismissed him. A scene between father and daughter , D etorni with all the iUming pyrotechnics that the Burr spirit could muster , came quickly , A lieutenant of the disardec lover'u family showed speedy res'iitmen of the slight Even had the spirited gir relented , It had been too late. Cooling love had given way to warfare. Aaron Burr smiled another of his biting emlloB and from upbraiding came to flattery foi the honest part she had played. But nc word would ho hear of Vanderlyn an a suitor. The painter , still working hard not yet recognized , had heard from hi sweetheart's pen the story of father's Interference end the motive for it , anc ha had heard , too , that above all thingt on earth she treasured the ponnllosi painter's love. There was a sharp lotto that cime from Paris to Buir ; but the ciol-hoaded politician etaiyed no answer The next Utter that John Vanderlyi had from the Burr household was brie and free from Any ardor. It was bat i formal announcement of the batrothul o Theodntia Burr to the brilliant yoanj ( ontbernor Alston. To secure her Lfie Carolinian iriluenco ahe wedded. Hi was an honorable man , this husband t ( whom uh gave her hand ; perhaps era th eearioted and swallowed them both n together ehe leained to love him. U was worthy of her direction ; to him thor was no knowledge that a wife carao i btrtor and by sale ; he never suspectc ihiit It if in f > r votes lo aggtaadizo A are Burr tha * , Aaton Burr's daughter said liir jrnhtn ho eskcd her to his homu Ac there was no further knowledge given t Vanderlyn either. Theodosia Burr wa too loyal to hmo'f to dedtro a love tbn was wrong in the wet Id's ratine. So oim It that Join Vanderljn ft 11 into cyni clam. So vras it that ho chose to believ era ling that the hand had gone \vher the heart fcaJ Ind ; ind Aaron Bur ho exonerated of alltn-t ia his fate When Burr , nccusod of high treason , ceded a friend * nd p tjotor , ID tretc ied out bin whole fortune s a fiov vill < ( Tiring. He won fama and lived in 11 the glory of it for yo rs , laying to oreot what richer thiog In had hoped for ud lost. Giving no tluuzht for to mor- ow , ho drifted on , painting now and hoc , as the whim dictated or his purse omandcd. And when the end came It onnd him penniless , friendless , forlorn. Mien In the moan roim of n hotel In his native town they found him ono morning hlrty years ago , clutched by death , hero were whispers that by his own will had the period boon put upon his career. And now out in the bleak cemetery on Wiltwyck heights a little unmarked nound , oorgrown by briots , faces us ai ho world's ttibuto to a rnun whfso genius would have dazzled mankind had not the ladow of a hopeless love fell upon it. Vhen the story of John Vandorlyn'o life s folly told American history will have > eon strengthened. Had ho never loved , Aaron < Uurr might have boon president.
