As PRECEDENT Of this Company for several yearf, from h

proved himseif a moot faithful and jealous officer. and
encountered every difficulty which presented Itself 10 il,

HUGH 5. LEGARE The remains otthis distin-
euished scholar, jurist and statesman, lie in Mt.
Abu-n Cemetery, near Boston, without Q stone &c
ma.k their reet!ng place. II will b. recoilec;ei that
q member of Mr.. Tyier's cabinet, Mr.. Lessre accom-
panied the President Ia Boston In 1911, to attend the
celebration Of the completion OF the Bunker Hill
Monument. While there he died-universslly Ia
meuted as ono of the ripest scbolars America had
ever numbered among her statesman. In the course
CT tho few years since elapsed it came to be forgotten
where no was hurried, and it ives not without con
siderable difficulty that Col. Yeadon ofthe Charleston
Courier, who last summer Oh a visit to Boston, took
the matter in hand, WAS able to ascertain.
II seems that dying at The houes of Mr.. Ticknor in
Boston. the remains Of NJ Legare were deposited in
his tomb, subject to their future disposal. Their.
they rested until 1881, when Henry d. Crugcr, for
merly Of Charleston, now Of Nav York, purchased a
small lot in Nj. Auburn Cemetery, and there had
them deposited. An appeal is now made, and surely
it will not be In vain, tor contributions for erecting a
fitting mausOleum on the spot Saraaah Georgian.
