Show Last Descendant Vespucci. Rome. Americans will doubtless be interested in the fact that the last descendant de-scendant of Amerigo Vespucci, the famous fa-mous navigator who gave his name to halt a world, has just died at Florence, where the Vespuccis have been noted for many generations. The descendant was Countess Amerigo Vespucci, and she had reached the advanced age of 9o. The ancient countess had always taken a keen interest in American affairs af-fairs and was always glad to meet Americans, before feebie health, due to advancing years, made it impossible for her to meet strangers. |
