MEMORIAL.

The Inauguration of St. George's-hall forcibly recals to the
mind of the Public the memory of the late Mr. H. L. Elmes.
His premature removal, when on the threshold of a most
promising career, must ever be deplored as a grievous loss to
his country. It was naturally anticipated, from the talents
he had displayed, that, had his life been spared, he would
have enjoyed a career of renown rarely attained by modern
architects; but be has established for the present age a fame
which posterity will readily acknowledge. The community.
however, has largely benefited by his talents and exertions—
exertions which, no doubt, curtailed the duration of his valu-
able life. It is therefore thought by many of his admirers
that the Opening of the St. George's-ball would be a most

appropriate occasion for marking -the high sense which the
public entertain of the advantages they have derived from
his eminent talents. The hope may be indulged-that the
Town Council will come to the conclusion that they may with
propriety erect some suitable monument to his memory in
the edifice designed by him, and which confers so much
honour on the town. The inhabitants on their part, it is
thought, will feel a pleasure in shielding the Widow of Mr.
Elmes, together with her only Child, from any pecuniary
difficulties tending to make her life one of anxiety and trou.
ble, an act which cannot be otherwise than gratifying to their
feelings.

Mr.-Elmes, notwithstanding his limited means, for It must
always be kept in mind that he rose suddenly to eminence,
and therefore had not the advantage of a staff of apprentices,
which increase the resources of those who acquire celebrity

Unfortunately, on his departure for the West Indies, he neg-
lected to give the regular notice to the office, and obtain
permission to leave the country. The insurance was there-
fore vitiated, and it was only by a voluntary act of the com-
pany that a small part of the amount insured was paid to his
Widow.
