97. Page 386. "In 1791 the Législature of Pennsylvania purchased the property extending from Chestnut to Market

Streets, and from Ninth Street west one hundred and fîfty-two feet, and proceeded to erect thereon a house for the Président of the United States. . . . By the time the spacious and substantial édifice was completed, at a cost of nearly one hundred thousand dollars, Mr. Adams had become Président. When the building was finished it was tendered by Governor Mifflin, by direction of the Législature, to Président Adams at a fair rental. Mr. Adams declined the ofrer, and the State was left with the property on its hands. In 1800 the property was ofïered at public sale . . . and was purchased by the University for the sum of forty-one thousand six hundred and fifty dollars, less than half its original cost." It was later sold to the United States government for $500,000 for the site of the new post office in 1874. Scharf and Westcott, III, 1939.
