Description:
Card Text \(transcribed from postcard\): Situated on the N.W. corner of 9th & Marshall Streets, in the same square with the new 'John Marshall High School.' It was built by Chief Justice (then General) Marshall and occupied by him from 1795 until his death in 1835. Though the spacious grounds which once surrounded it have been greatly reduced in area, the residence itself is unchanged, except for the inroads made upon it by the 'corroding tooth of time.' No more venerable and historic relic, of such general interest to all Americans, is to be found in the South. Note: Beautiful and Historical Richmond, Va. Series No. 9-D; City/Location: Richmond (Va.)
