OF the artist the following sketch is given. He was
born in Clark County, Kentucky, about the year loo-
He Of humble parentage, and while boy found EN-
ployment in building chmneys and other kinds of
work His education restricted to quarters school
ing but lie became an interchangeable reader of such books
as came within his reach, spending his evenings
them By the light of a wood fire. In 1880 he entered
stone cutting establishment in Lexington, BY degrees
he was Induced to attempt modelling busts In clay aud
succeeded in obtaining good kenesses of many ntuen
al persons in Lexington and elsewhere in the Vest
Among Others General Jackson aud Cassius NJ Clay sat
to him, and the latter gave him his first commission for
bust in marble His success in these undertakings and
the excellence of bust he had modelled of Henry Clay
induced the Ladies of Virginia to employ him for the
work they contemplated. He visited Ashland in 1896
and modelled The great from life After three
years labor on IT, the model was shipped to Italy
whittier the artist repaired for the purpose of
transferring it to marble. He reached Florence in the
latter part of l949 and after waiting whole year for
the arrival of his model which had been lost by ship
wreck in tAe bay of Blscay obliged to send to Lex
ngton for duplicate. This and other delays protracted
the completion of the work for several years and
until August 29th 1882 that the statue shipped

day Of January and few days subsequently, placed
upon wheels and drawn by large number of citizens
to its temporary resting place in Mechanics Hall.

completion of the work. the valuable aid of his brother
artist Gait, of Virginia for few months, given to
Mr.. Hart,
The statue will be to-day unveiled, and the public,

the captain lived, placed it in leaning attitude
against his very door.
Not long afterwards, the veteran, unable to
rest, came again to bis window. What was his
horror and astonishment when he perceived the
usurer close TO his door, At first he thought il
was the ghost of the murdered man; but in .
few moments the truth flashed upon his mind,
aud he determined to take desperate method
Of Kidding himself Of this evidence Of his
crime.
He went down stairs, brought the corpse into
his house, dressed il completely in an Algerine
habit that he had taken in the field Of battle
when those barbarians made descent upon
Reggie, some years before, clapped turban up
on his head, placed 1t upon horse, to which he
took care to tie it with strong rope, and then
leading the horse by the bride to the gate Of
the town, he abandoned the steed to It's fate I;
trusting by these means to extricate himself
from the dilemma in which he was.
The animal, LEFT thus to his own guidance, fol-
lowed the high road for considerable time; at
last it stopped to Craze, and at that moment the
student, who, unfortunately for himself was
travelling in the same direction, came. up. No
sooner did he distinguish the dress Of the horse
man, than he took to fight without daring to
look behind him; believing, probably, that the
Moors had made new descent, and that he was
about to be surrounded by them.
But, in flying, the poor student reckoned with
out his host for he, too, happened to be mount
ed, and the quicker he went, the iaster his pur
suer galloped after him; IN vain did he put spurs
to his steSd; with all his efforts, he could keep
little ahead Of bis adversary.
Aier proceeding in this way about three miles,
the runaway began to take heart when he saw
that his pursuer was not joined by any others
Of this terrible nation. He found that in q few
moments the AIgerins would certainly overtake
him, and he thought that, perhaps, be might
daunt him by assuminga show Of bravery. Ac
cordngly, he faced round with determined air,
and called to his redoubtable adversary to take
another way or take the consequence.
Instead Of stopping, the Algerine gaIloped fn-
riousy up, and the student who waited for him
sword IN hand, severed, at one blow, his head
from his body; the head, in falling, dropped
from the turban, and discovered to the astonished
student the features Of his victim.
Horror-struck at this terrible sight, he turned
his horse, aud galloped like mailman; but tind-
ing himself still pursued BY the headless horse
man, he directly conceived that he was the prey
Of an evil spirit; terror then gave him strength
he few, rather than galloped, ill he reached q
small town where he was stopped, as well as his
formidable pursueF. He was Immediately taken
before the justice Of the peace, to whom he made
q voluntary concession Of his guilt; but the az
iair appeared 50 singular, that Il was referred to
the Duke Of Reggie, who, setting on foot strict
inquiry. soon discovered all the circumstances
Of the affair; and as II was apparent that neither
the student, nor the other persons concerned in
it, had been intentionally guilty Of murder, they
were all pardoned
