Mary ' s College, a immument to history and to education, was founded on a peak of fertile land jutting into the St. Mary s River. With the passage of time, the school has taken from its surround- ings the atmosphere of the past that pre- vails in this, the first capital of Mary- land. For . t. Marys, and. indeed, all of the southermost tip i Maryland retains the flavor of Maryland ' s past thrmigh the stately and elegant manor houses that are still mainlained today. Ghosts tales and mistics seem to tradi- tionally surround and entwine these old manor houses. Every place of shelter, be it even a log cabin, houses tales of woe and gladness; but. within the walls of a manor house the tales always appear to have a much deeper intensity with an enormous content ol complexity. In 1634. the first English settlers on the shores of the S. Mary ' s River founded the colony of Mary ' s Land. W ilhin the next decade a tiny settlement. St. Mary ' s City, was carved from the wilderness. Lndcr the auspices ot the awacomoco Indians, the prospering city became the capital of the Province of Maryland. Here the first Slate House was erected in 1676. But in 1694. when the capital of the .State of Maryland was moved to Annapolis, the population and industry of Sl. Mary ' s City dwindled. Little re- mained of the former (piick pulse of life in the old capital. Even the stately mansiims of colonial southern Maryland acquired an air of agelessness. Such was tlie atmosphere that prevailed on the historic banks of the .S|. Mary ' s River when the building of .St. Mary ' s Female Seminary (now St. Mary ' s College! was sanctioned by the Marylanii legislature in 1839. N iw. from the doors of the State House of the province id Maryland, let us journey to the living landmarks of Maryland ' s past, the beautiful manor houses of Sl. Mary ' s County. , . iL2l Hk Jk. i H- ' v 1 Dr. May Russell. President of St. Mary ' s College, received her . .B. degree from Vt est- ern Maryland College.

Tudor Hall, a Gci)rgian-type mansion, was built by Abraham Barnes in 1756. and is the ancesloral home of the Keys of St. Mary ' s. From its location in Leonardtown, one can see the beautiful Breton Bay and surrounding countryside of St. Mary ' s County. Tudor Hall has been restored to much of its earlier beauty: and it now belongs to the St. Mary ' s Memorial Library . ssociation for use as a public library. This lovely Eighteenth Century manor house is distinguished by a recessed portico with four large Doric columns, graceful hanging stairway, an old kitchen wing with a large fireplace, and a Dutch oven. Tudor Hall is rich in memories of the Key family, who were noted people in Maryland long before Francis Scott Key wrote the ' .Star Spangled Banner. A woesome trend has instilled itself within a grandfather clock which found its resting place within the enormous center passageway of Tudor Hall. Tra- dition says that it only strikes the hour when a death takes place in the family. When the death of Mrs. Key was near, the family sent a servant to Leonardtown, to seek a doctor and Mrs. Key ' s childhood nurse. While returning with great haste, they stopped as a sound rang out. They knew that it was the clock striking off the last beat of Mrs. Key ' s heart. 15 Nancy J. Albertson Westminster. Maryland ELEMENTARY EDUCATION Mrs. Sharon R. . rmitagf Lexington Park.

West St. Mary ' s Manor, a late seven- teenth century manor house, stands high above the St. Mary ' s River and directly opposite the old city. This earliest known grant of land in Maryland was presented to Captain Henry Fleet for his help in establishing the first settlement at St. Mary ' s. S ' est St. Mary ' s Manor is a story- and-a-half structure with small dormer windows, frame sides, and brick gable ends. The double chimneys with pents between at each end are unique in this area. This lovely manor house is owned by Lt. Col. and Mrs. Miodrag Blago- jevich who have furnished it throughout with authentic seventeenth and eight- eenth century American antiques. Tradition has it that many years ago when the mistress of the manor died, her picture disappeared from the wall of her west wing bedroom. Her son. the master of the manor, mourned deeply over the loss of his dear mother and her beautiful portrait. On her birthday the following year, as he sal in her old bedroom staring at the wall where his mother ' s portrait had hung, it suddenly appeared to him. And the tale goes that each year on that same day her picture will appear to any- one who stares at that wall and thinks of her. 37 ' A Nancy Adams Marlyn Adamson W endell Bailey Peter Balt ;ell Ruby Beauchainp Sandra Benson Pamela June Black Laura Blevins W are the Sunrise.

Hear Ye! Sotterley picturesquely located on the Patuxent River, was built in 1730 by George Plater and was named for the ancestral home of the Plater and Saterlee families in England. The mansion, which has housed four generations of Platers, including a Governor of Maryland, is currently owned by Mrs. Mable Saterlee Ingalls and is one of the most achitec- turally interesting in St. Mary ' s County. Among the fine pieces of interior wood- work can be found a Chinese Chippen- dale staircase and carved shell cup- boards. Legend has it that George Plater was one of the wealthiest planters in Mary- land and the story of this great wealth reached many ears. Among those who heard of it was the pirate chieftan. Long Arm. who decided to visit Sotterly and loot it of these treasures. Quietly Long .iVrm sailed up the Patuxent River and dropped anchor near shore. Thinking that only the women would be at the manor on this morning. Long Arm was confident that he and his men could easily frighten them and make away with the riches. His scheme was thwarted, however, when a Negro slave sighted the brigands creeping up the hill and gave the alarm to Plater and several other men who had just returned from a fox hunt. Long Arm and his crew, two of whom were killed in the chase, beat a hasty retreat to their ship and sailed off down the Patuxent. It is said that the two dead pirates were buried on the spot where they fell and today their graves remain unmarked. Beauty In Art A. Greene and L. Kliirancc ti!.l iheir skill in ihr leramirs lal).

Cremona was built about 1819 by Doctor Vi illiam Thomas on a beautiful piece of land along the Patuxent River. The estate, orifiinally known as West Ashcomb. was given to John Ashcomb by Lord Baltimore in 1659 and the Land Grant still hangs in the hall of Cremona. Creinona is considered to be one of the finest existing examples of early Repub- lic architecture in Maryland. Particularly striking is an unusual hanging staircase in the great hall which is mounted from either end of the hall. Oemona is pres- ently owned by the Davidson family who have restored the manor house and furnished it with antiques from England and America. p. Shawlry. Miss Stmms. S. W alers. J. Iravers. (!.

Built in 1760, by John Sommerville, a Scottish merchant, the Georgian mansion, with its formal gar- dens and bowling green, is one of the most beautiful in .St. Mary ' s County. One of the more interesting features of the estate is the manner in which the bor- dering hedgerows and columns of trees are planted. They appear to be in parallel rows extending to the water, but were actually placed in converging lines so as to create the illusion that the river, in reality a mile away, is much closer to the house. Mulberry Fields is presently owned by Mr. and Mrs. Holger B. Jans- • son. 75 L JMwfel Day sluHenls v lu kmiw raifi niher at iheir first St. J.A. Phipps. Tuna. . Burklrr. and J.
