IU' The Boston Bee speaking of the
sale Of Pro-. Webster's Laboratory,
says:
The most notable article in the col
lection was magnet, once owned by
the distinguished French chemist Lavo,.
sier, who, il is well known. was bchead-
ed during the great French revolution
After various fortunes it came into the
possession OF Professor Webster, by
whom it was highly priced.
The magnet was purchased by Mr..
Francis Alger Of South Boston, for the
trining sum OF $525. We understand
Mr.. AIg,r would not dispose OF 1t for
$500. Its rare history gives il value
entirely beyond any intrinsic value.
After the strange fatalities which have
attended the posses ors Of tins mdgne',
one would be apt 10 suppose that 10
one would desire to be brought In con-
tao! with il.
