Relic for Princeton.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Princeton's collection of relics received a valuable and unique acquisition the past week. This was an ancient watch, which was for many years the property of Col. Aaron Burr. The watch went to Princeton through the efforts of Moses Taylor Pyne of New York, a trustee of the college, and is the gift of Richard C. Edwards of New York City, a distant relative of Col. Burr.
