thanieP, Joseph' 2 , Henry'), of Sheshequin and Towanda, Pa.,
married, September 24, 1835, Matilda, daughter of Jonathan
General Washington presented it to Ira Stephens, who was a soldier in his armv.
From him it has descended through the various generations of the Stephens family
to Ira E. Stephens, of Towanda, Pa. Mr. Stephens has presented this old heirloom
to the Tioga Point Historical Society, upon the following c< mditions : Mr. Stephens
reserves the right of control and possession during his life, should lie ever desire to
exercise it ; at his death the glass is to become the property of the Society to hold
as long as the Society exists. Should the Society cease to exist, then the glass is to
become the property of the eldest male heir of Mr. Stephens. This is a gvnerous
and graceful act on the part of Mr. Stephens, and one which is highly appreciated
by the Historical Society. The Society is to be congratulated upon being the recip-
ient of such an historic and valuable gift. At one time Judge Peters, >>! Philadel-
phia, wishing to secure the glass for Independence Hall, offered Mr. .Stephens $2,000
for it.
