William and Mary, and the 2iK)th anniversary of the birth of a noted alumnus, Thomas Jefferson. Williamsburg had an important part In the social, political and cul tural life of Jefferson, both as col lege seat and capital of Colonial Virginia. One of the places most Intimately associated with his Wil liamsburg days was Italeigh Tavern where the future author or the Declaration of Independence met frequently with Patrick Henry and other patriot-companions, planning steps that set the stage for Ameri ca's independence. Raleigh Tavern, now completely restored, was not only the social center of the capital but the scene of patriotic activity as well. Through tbe taproom resounded lbs voices of George Washington. Jefferson. Henry. Lafayette. Pey ton Randolph. Richard Henry Lee as they clinked tankards and drank patriotic toasts in beer and flips. It is entirely likely that the beer which filled the patriots' tankards came from the college brew house which, on the authority of Dr Karl G. Swem, present librarian of the college, was in the basement of the main building. None of the college brewhouse equipment now sur vives, but the minutes of the col lege's Visitors and Governors, dated June 13, 1716. show that brewhouae furniture for the collide was then authorized to be pur chased from Knglaml When its dissolution as ordered by the British Covernor, the Vir ginia House of DureesBes repaired, to the Raleigh Tavern, where it met in open defiance of the official edict It was here, during these dar ing sessions, that Patrick Henry and Jefferson made some of the stirring speeches that kindled the revolutionary flame of the Ameri can colonists. The example these loyal Virgin ians set wan a great impetus in the Aght that led to the Independence of the United Stales of America. It was also in this tavern, on December 5. 1776. that the honor society. Phi Beta Kappa, was or ganised The fraternity's anniver sary celebrations are still held there. According to the best informa tion, tbe tavern was acquired in 1735 by Henry Wetherburne, who had a wide reputation for many years as a bost. Its most famous room was the Apollo Room, which had a romantic place in Jefferson's liu- Writing to a friend In 1764, be stated that the night before be had been "as happy as dancing wltb Belinda in tbe Apollo could make him." Tbe Raleigh was operated as a tavern until 154. when it was re modeled for use as a girls' acade my Five years later it was de stroyed by fire. The restored Italeigh Tavern was dedicated as a patriots' shrine on September 16. 1932 the year of the ZOOth anniversary of its most famous patron. George Washington.
