On this day, I John Gregory Presco, announce I am a Republican Candidate for Office of President of the United States of America.
This morning I read that Isabella Boyer-Singer was the model for the Statue of Liberty. She is the mother of Paris Singer, who built the Everglades Clubhouse, and Dark Island,which will be my summer residence when I am elected. I will winter in my Florida Mansion as Professor John Von Bond, Baron of Rosamond Island.
On this day, August 1, 2023, I declare the Supreme Court, Donald Trump, Governor DeSantis, and the Speaker of the House – have lost touch with reality – because they are puppets on strings to their Evangelical Handlers who have thirty million American voters in a hypnotic trance! The Dark Ones have proven that half of America can not handle reality, and thus will settle for religious and political fairytales. So be it. Being a Biblical Scholar, and a Historian, let me announce…
Boy! Do I got a doozy for you!
So be it!
Professor John Von Bond of Berlin – Baron of Dark Island

Lady Randolph with her two sons, John and Winston, 1889
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Randolph_Churchill
Jennie Jerome was married for the first time on 15 April 1874, aged 20, at the British Embassy in Paris, to Lord Randolph Churchill, the third son of John Winston Spencer-Churchill, 7th Duke of Marlborough and Lady Frances Anne Vane.[14] The couple had met at a sailing rega
2. She Was A Beautiful Predator
Although all the girls in Jennie’s family had good looks and even better breeding, Jennie still blew them out of the water. She was undeniably stunning, yes—but that was just the half of it. Whip-smart and already restless as a teen, one of her admirers said there was “more of the panther than of the woman in her look”.
Boy, would he be proven right.

Singer had built a string of hospitals in England and France “for the war-wounded” (in the First World War). At the urging of Lady Randolph Churchill, he donated the use of his house at Oldway in Paignton to be used by the American Women’s War Relief Fund as a military hospital.[5][6] Deciding to build one in Palm Beach, after consulting with Mizner, he bought a large parcel of land on which the “Touchstone Convalescent Club”[7] was to be built. He hired Mizner to build it, and Mizner moved to Palm Beach.[3]: 158 Mizner purchased from him the “virtually inoperable pottery factory, ‘Las Manos’ [‘The Hands’]”.[8]
The real estate collapse also contributed to the end of Singer’s close friendship with Mizner, which ended in 1927.[3]: 232 The Everglades Club went into receivership, as Singer was unable to service the loans for which the club was collateral. He was arrested in April, 1928, at the Everglades Club, on charges of real estate fraud.[3]: 232–233 A judge dismissed the charges three weeks later,[7]: 168 but Singer, having been publicly humiliated, left Palm Beach immediately and never lived there again.[3]: 233

The club has long been criticized for reported discrimination against Jewish and Black people.[17] Sammy Davis, Jr. was turned away at the door.[18] According to socialite C.Z. Guest, she and her husband were temporarily suspended from the club after they brought Jewish guests—Estée Lauder and her husband—to a party there in 1972.[18] Joseph Kennedy, father of the slain president, resigned his membership in the early ’60s “to avoid scrutiny for belonging to a club known for excluding African-American and Jewish people.”[18]
The Untold Story of Isabelle Boyer: A Life Shadowed by the Statue of Liberty

The Statue of Liberty stands tall as a symbol of hope and freedom, welcoming millions of visitors to the shores of the United States. But behind this iconic monument lies the forgotten story of Isabelle Boyer, the woman whose face served as the model for Lady Liberty. While her likeness immortalized the statue, her own life was filled with hardships and sadness. Join us as we delve into the untold narrative of Isabelle Boyer and shed light on the struggles she faced throughout her existence.
The Statue of Liberty, designed by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, was unveiled in 1886 on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. Bartholdi sought inspiration for the statue’s face, and it was Isabelle Boyer, a young French woman, who captivated the artist with her ethereal beauty. Boyer’s features served as the muse for the statue’s face, giving birth to a powerful symbol of freedom that would endure for centuries. While the Statue of Liberty became an internationally recognized icon, Isabelle Boyer’s life was marked by personal tragedies. Born in France in 1860, she experienced a childhood marred by poverty and hardship. Boyer’s family struggled to make ends meet, and she was forced to work at a young age to support her loved ones.
When Bartholdi discovered Boyer, he offered her the opportunity to become the face of his monumental creation. At first, this seemed like a chance for Boyer to escape her difficult circumstances and find a brighter future. However, little did she know that her association with the statue would bring her both fleeting fame and lingering sadness. Despite her role as the face of an international symbol, Boyer’s life failed to improve significantly. She received modest compensation for her likeness being used, but the financial gains were short-lived. Boyer struggled to find stability and endured a string of disappointments in her personal life. Her relationships were often tumultuous, and she faced numerous hardships, including the loss of loved ones and health issues.
As the years passed, Boyer’s connection to the Statue of Liberty became increasingly forgotten. The monument itself became the focal point of admiration, while the woman behind the face remained invisible. Isabelle Boyer’s name slipped into obscurity, and the public remained unaware of the struggles she faced throughout her life. It is essential to acknowledge Isabelle Boyer’s life and honor the woman who played an integral role in the creation of an enduring symbol. Despite her anonymity, she played a vital part in the birth of an icon that continues to inspire millions. By sharing her story, we can reflect on the often untold narratives of those who, despite their contributions, are consigned to the periphery of history.
Paris Eugene Singer, Isaac Singer’s third son, supervised the alterations at Oldway Mansion between 1904 and 1907.[4] The rebuilding work was modelled on the Palace of Versailles,.[5] and the eastern elevation of the building was inspired by the Place de la Concorde in Paris.[6] The interior of the building is noted for its grand staircase made from marble and balusters of bronze..[5] The ceiling of the staircase is decorated with an ornate painting based on an original design for the Palace of Versailles for Louis XIV by the French painter and architect Charles Le Brun.[5]
Above the grand staircase there is a reproduction of the first version of Jacques-Louis David‘s painting The Crowning of Josephine by Napoleon..[5] The original was purchased by Paris Singer in the late 19th century. The painting was sold to the French government in 1946 and now hangs in the Palace of Versailles.[7][5] The reproduction at the mansion, which is in the same place as the original, is a copy made by Rutters Scanachrome and was unveiled in 1995.[8]
The gallery on the first floor is a reproduction of the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles, and is floored in parquet.[5] The gallery leads into the ballroom, which contains walls of gilt panelling and mirrors. Above the fireplace there is an oil painting of Louis of Bourbon dating from 1717.[5]

Isaac Singer was an actor in plays. His son, Paris Singer was Isadora Duncan’s lover. The president of Singer built Fair Rosamond’s castle on Dark Island. Very wealthy people associated with the Vanderbilt’s, have been constructing the Frisian Atlantis – and they know not what they do! Only the Master Builder can bring all the pieces together!

How the Everglades Club Killed Paris Singer’s Friendship With Addison Mizner

“He was the finest-looking man I ever saw; six feet, three or four, straight as a die, with a fine figure. At this time, he was 50 and looked 40.”
That’s Addison Mizner, the legendary Palm Beach architect, on another of the island’s founding figures, Paris Eugene Singer — whose legacy can be felt in the elegant Everglades Club, which he began building in 1918, and on Singer Island, which is named for him. His life was every bit as colorful as the South Florida community that still celebrates him today.
Singer was the 22nd of 24 children born to Isaac Singer, the sewing machine tycoon. Perhaps after so many children, papa simply ran out of ideas for what to call them — Paris was named after the French city of his birth in 1867. (When his father died eight years later, he divided his $13 million fortune among the 20 surviving heirs — with one particularly unfavored son, who taken his mother’s side during a nasty divorce, getting just $500.)
Paris Singer’s connection to Palm Beach began during a visit when he was 33. By that stage he had already known tragedy: a son he had out of wedlock with the famous dancer Isadora Duncan drowned in 1913 in the Seine at the age of three. (Duncan’s two other children also died young; she
herself perished in 1927 when the long silk scarf she was wearing in an open car became entangled in the wheel and broke her neck.)
“In 1920, he visited Palm Beach and met Addison Mizner,” according to Singer Island’s municipal website. “He agreed to pay the architect a $6,000 a year retainer for life if his work was confined exclusively to the Palm Beach area. With Mizner, he created the Palm Beach we know today with its Spanish architecture, picturesque streets and exclusive shops.”

But construction was scuttled by the combination of a hurricane in 1926 and the stock market crash in 1929, earning the hotel the nickname “Singer’s Folly,” and leaving an eyesore husk finally torn down in 1940. (The Hilton Hotel occupies the site today.)
