The well known big man of Hsrtford-
shire, Mr.. g. ]. Coleman, died on the 4th
of April at the rips age of seventy-seven.
Mr.. Coleman was formerly purveyOr to the
East India College, st Haileybury, and
hence will be well known 10 many of our
readers. In very early manhood he
weighed as little as eleven stone, q mOder-
ate weight for man standing about five
fest ten inches in his stockings. Upward
Of a quarter Of q century since he began to
increase in size, and steadily progressed
until he attained the enormous weight of
thiriy-one stone. Some idea Of his great
size may be gathered from the fact that his
thigh measured four feet in circumference;
his knee was thirty two inches round, ard
his ankle twenty eight inches. Until with
in very few months, he took his daily
constitutional walk and his fatal Hines
ian attack of bronchitisl was only Of q few
days duration. His exterior coffin was
three feet four inches in breadth, and from
its vast size had to be conveyed to the
church on q bier, as no ordidary hearss
was sufficiently cspscious to receive it. The
total weight of the coffin and contents was
upwsrd,o eleven hundred weight. We
believe that Mr.. Coleman was the heaviest
man Of the present time, though he fell
considerably short of the weight attained
by the celebrated Daniel Lambert
Jofeph Lefel, of Springfield, Ohio, is the
smallest business man in the world, and
indeed quite an atom IS compared with
General Tom Thumb. Mr.. Lefel being
only forty.four inches in hight, and weigh
ing bat ffty-fve pounds Mr.. Leffel is
now thirtytw years Of age. He is an in
telligent, sble-bOdied, handsome featured
man, and sports moustache that would
really do credit to the Scotch giant. He
has filed the office OF supervisor in Spring
field, and is regarded as one of the most
spirited citizens of that plaes. He is about
to marry Miss Sarah E. Bslton, who is
smaller than Mrs. Tom Thumb, snd was
formerly Dolly DuttOn's maid of honor
