       THE JOHN SAYER HOUSE  217 South Street
    
 
It is said that Alexander Hamilton proposed to Elizabeth Schuyler here.
         
It was built in 1749 with fireplaces having hand carved mantels.  Seating capacity was then 250.
        (There were 13 stars beneath the eaves to represent the 13 colonies).
         

The Turnpike Inn was the site of the "nightime murder by Antone Le Blanc" on May 11, 1833.  He killed Judge Samuel Sayer, his wife Sara Sayer and their maid Phoebe and looted the house. Le Blanc was captured and returned to Morristown for trial where he was hanged on the town Green in the presence of a large mob.  There was a morbid aftermath to this story (click on Jimmy's Haunt below) ! 

For many years, a town alderman, James Ledgerwood, used the house as a private residence.  In 1947, Edward Winchester established an INN with the name of Winchester's Turnpike Inn. On October 25, 1957, firetrucks from six communities fought a fire that injured twenty-five men.  

In 1960, William McCausland, opened the 1749 house as a cafeteria with upstairs banquet rooms.  The name was The Wedgewood Inn.  In1981, professionals purchased the Inn and opened it as Society Hill.  Subsequently, it has carried these names :  South Street, Argyles, All American Restaurant and Bar, Phoebe's Restaurant - Dance Club and Pub.  It is now enjoying a new life as JIMMY'S HAUNT.

Morristown Memorial Hospital - 1912 - in Town
AND

   The original All Soul's Mo Twn All Souls Howpital was GW HQ  Hospital looked like this :

Adams & Fairchild Groceries - was the 1777 HQ - Jacob Arnold Tavern.

WASHINGTON' 1777 HQ  became a hospital !

The MORRISTOWN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL'S REHAB CENTER on Route 202, Mount Kemble Avenue, was, beginning in 1892, organized and served by the Grey Nuns from Montreal, Canada and later the Sisters of Charity of the Morristown region.  Of course, it was also served by many heroic doctors, nurses and nurses aids (they saved our son's life).   It was named ALL SOULS ' HOSPITAL from 1892. 

The hospital began in the building known as JACOB ARNOLD'S TAVERN, 
WASHINGTONS' 1777 HEADQUARTERS! 
George and Martha slept there!  

To prevent demolition, that building was purchased in 1886 by JULIA KEESE COLLES and relocated to the site of  the present parking lot, across from our new REHAB CENTER.   It was there as a boarding house from 1886 until 1891 and a hospital from 1892 until it burned in 1918.
 
Again!

This building, originally JACOB ARNOLD's TAVERN and WASHINGTON'S HQ in 1777,  had been moved in 1886 from "THE MORRISTOWN GREEN."  After six years as a boarding house, in 1892, the building was then acquired, expanded and ' became a Roman Catholic hospital, which served all people, including many charity cases for about 26 years until it burned-down in 1918.  The first floor had been saved by fire fighters, but demolition followed as a newer grand brick hospital building was being completed directly across the street.  That new building and expansions have become the "Mt. Kemble Avenue Rehabilitation Section," a division of the present "Madison-Avenue Morristown Memorial Hospital." 

Horse Power moved this boarding 1/2 mile from town.  HQ

ABOUT WASHINGTON'S  "Shared HQ" at Morristown, NJ   ( 1779-1780 )

Read this detail to change misconceptions !  Written with respect for G.W. and our overseas allies.  J.M.J.  

OVERVIEW :  
This "MORRISTOWN  PAGE !"  is dedicated to GEORGE  WASHINGTON; to the Continental Congress, Colonial Militias and George Washington's Continental Army, which faced the  world-class naval forces of a german and english-speaking so-called "British Monarch, King George III", whose ancestors, GEORGE I and II, had not learned the English language and had partially ruled the British Isles from  the Hanover, Germany area.  GEORGE III used  British and Hessian German troops to try  enforcement of harsh tax laws, such as The Stamp Act, The Townsend Act and The Tea Act.

As you probably know,  G  E  O  R  G  E     W  A  S  H  I  N  G  T  O  N   rode to many places for USA Independence from arbitrary and arrogant demands from afar and from  TAXATION without REPRESENTATION !   Morristown became an important safe-place  from the dominating naval guns of his enemy.  New Jersey was the main "crossroads" for the major armies.  Washington's Morristown became a major "Military Capital of the Revolution."


FROM WASHINGTON'S DIARY :

Two years before the war, GW traveled HERE to where he would fight in future years ! 

GEORGE WASHINGTON FIRST CAME TO BASKING RIDGE and MORRISTOWN on May 25, 1773 with his stepson John Parke Custis. 
This was over four years before arriving here WITH HIS ARMY, Jan. 6, 1777.  
  
 And, yes, George Washington came to
 "STRATEGIC MORRISTOWN " eight  times:

Yes, MAY 25, 1773 - two years before the war .... 
then, almost four years later, with the army.  He then stayed for about 5 months, as is often reported, 
JAN. 6 1777 to MAY 28, 1777 He also was here July 4 - July 11, 1777 and July 26, 1777 of the same year.   He returned again on June 3, 1779.  As often reported, he also returned with the army for six months from
DEC. 1, 1779 to   JUNE 1, 1780,  and then again on Nov. 28, 1780.  Then, he also returned Mar. 24 to Mar. 28, 1782  with Martha after the victory at Yorktown, Virginia.  (Some of these dates need second-reference verification).

TINY NOTES :  This was written using Microsoft Frontpage-2000.  Some of the pages are very large, so computers with slow modems,  less than 28K or 56K,  will only find this "too slow" - so, you may see this at fast speeds at your local library.

This is for "the Patriotic" :  Love "FREEDOM with RESPONSIBILITY" ! 
Always consider our Amended Constitution and always try to use "COMMON SENZE," 


"Common Sense" iz a 'high order abstraction'," says d' judge !

GOODBYE !

BIGNESS:
A FRIEND, who has a right to his opinion, ONCE SAID :
"GEORGE WASHINGTON would be interested in the status of EXTRA LARGE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONS WHICH ATTEMPT TO BYPASS OUR CONSTITUTION.   He would raise an eyebrow at octopus like Media Power OUTREACH - 
DOW OWNERSHIP ?                   GE OWNERSHIP ?               NEWSCORP OWNERSHIP ?   
DISNEY OWNERSHIP  ?              GATES OWNERSHIP  ?       RUPERT MURDOCK OWNERSHIP ?
TURNER OWNERSHIP  ?             for good or evil ...
He would also cringe to see the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES act like a HOUSE OF FUND RAISERS.  THE CURRENT CRISIS MAY SOMEDAY CHANGE THAT as congressmen get their priorities 'right' and when TV AIR RIGHTS are given back to 'the people.'  The Third Amendment of the Constitution hints at certain protections within one's own home!  The First Amendment should give us 'FREEDOM with RESPONSIBILITY,'  not just the FREEDOM of 'ANYTHING GOES'"!  
But, was my friend right?
