A life-size cutout of Lafayette sits at the head of the table in Montpelier’s dining room. Cutouts of the Madisons and other dinner guests can be seen in the background.
(1/2) It's #RandomActsOfPoetryDay! #DolleyMadison often quoted #poetry when signing her #autograph. At least 3 times, she copied a poem about #Lafayette that ended:
“Champion of Freedom! Well thy race was won!
All time shall hail thee, Europe’s noblest son!”
