  (4) 1834, 1 Dec: His brother Henry A. Tayloe wrote to his brother Benjamin Ogle Tayloe fro m Walnut Grove, AL, "I have requested Brother William to dispose of my estate in VA as I am c onvinced that money is worth more here than there even if I was tempted to purchase more land ."
  (4) 1835, 26 Mar: Brother Henry A. Tayloe wrote to Benjamin Ogle Tayloe from Walnut Grove , "I am told that Howa has no equal, my overseer writes me that she is a very fine filly. Th e people in this country are too devoted to the culture of cotton to think of improving thei r breed of horses, but I have been offered $700 for Emily Tonson delivered here in good healt h, but there is the rub, as Brother William writes me that she is extremely delicate and he w ished to send her to Eclipse."
  (3) 1844: A maid carrying a candle on an errand to the attic started a fire gutted Mount Ai ry. Mahogany paneling in the downstairs rooms was destroyed, and a heavy strong box bolted t o the floor of a 2nd story room crashed through the marble first floor to the basement. The w alls remained intact, and the interior was rebuilt. The marble flooring was replaceds with wo od. The interior doors were replaced with doors retrieved from a remodeling of the Fuller's C ity Hotel, later the Willard Hotel, in Washington D.C., still owned by the Tayloe estate. Th e doors are still there, with their brass hotel room numbers still attached. The restoratio n work was done by George H. and Wm. P. Van Ness, and while they were in the area they were c alled over to Blandfield, the William Beverley estate in Essex Co., across the river. Becaus e he saw the paneling in his own estate now as a fire hazard following the Mount Airy fire, B everley had the Van Nesses take it out, giving rise to a local saying, "One house burned, tw o sets of paneling destroyed."

  (3) 1856, 10 Mar: Benj. Ogle Tayloe and William H. Tayloe placed an ad in the "Daily Nation al Intelligencer," "For Sale or Rent, The House corner of New York Avenue, and 18th Street, c ommonly called 'The Octagon'. For terms apply Joseph C. Willard, Willard's Hotel."

  (3) His brother Benjamin Ogle Tayloe wrote later, "About the Octagon the ladies refused t o accept my repeated offers to them & those since made by W.H.T. at the Virg'a Springs- The y rented another house- & after I had rented The Octagon I only heard elsewhere they wished t o continue at The Octagon- never from them. They were only duly notified by me of having a te nant engaged and when he was to take possession." (NOTE: The ladies were his sisters still li ving at the Octagon.)
  (3) 1856, 22 Aug: His brother Benjamin Ogle Tayloe bought out his 1/2 interest in the Taylo e properties in Washington D.C., including the Octagon and its two lots, for $15,954.

  (2) 1871, Apr: William Tayloe proposed taking over Belair prior to a public sale, but in Ap ril, before the plan could be carried out, he died.
