WHERE: Madison County Public Library, Richmond Branch

Please join us in welcoming Mr. Birchfield as he tells us about the many gifts to Henry Clay!

"Thomas Jefferson refused the gift of a saddle as improper while he was serving in public office.  Henry Clay, however, accepted two saddles, as well as wine, beef, socks, a diamond bracelet,  horses, a carriage, chickens, the snuff box of Peter the Great, and $40,000 and more in cash.  Clay’s many fans favored him with gifts both modest and luxurious, and his openness appears to have been in keeping with the spirit of his times."
