THE MAN WHO MELTED IN HIS BooTs.-Per-
haps the readers Of the Richmond DiSpntch may
have noticed under The head of briefs upon the
subject of warm weather an account of Il man
who melted In his boots and the only thing left Of
him was pair of boots full of grease, &c. The
circumstance connected with this is peculiarly
sad. The morning of that day he went to the wood
and coal depot Of j. Ii. WOODCoCK, 8ll Basin
bank, and inquired the price Of coal, and was given
the following figures: Glover Hill Lump, s5.75 /;
Glover Hill Hall, IS Clover Hill Hard, for cook
ing purposes 81. He left the Office and was heard
to cxclaim, son, that had money to lay In my

When he reached Main street he was seen watch
ing lump of ice, and cautiously he went to the
man in charge Of 1t and asked the price. He was
told three cents pound. He then contrasted the
difference between the price Of ice and coal, and,
In language Of sorrow, he said: SIN one short
hour, upon this spot will expire, and leave no
mark except d big grease spot
For further particulars inquire Of j. II. WOOD

Poe NOT THE AUTHOR OF THE RAVEN
MIR: J. Shaver, of Burlington, n. j., writes
as follows to a gentleman of New Orleans /:
"This place is just now attracting q
great deal of attention from antiquarians
and litterateurs generally on account of a
discovery lately made by me. l happened
to notice in Litters Living Age, Of january
Sth last, page 100, the following paragraph :
"' 1t has just come to light that in an old
barn in one OF the villages of New Jersey is
valuable collection Of books and manu-
scripts, formerly forming part of the Ii
brary of Mahlon Dickerson, an American
statesman, They are all in possession Of the
rats, and of man who will not let them be
touched because Of some family quarrel
about property
"Having often heard that such docu-
ments existed in Burlington, and were in
the hands of MIR. John T. Tompkins, I re-
| quested and obtained permission to examine
them, and among them found and copied a
portion Of letter from Edgar A. Poe to
Mr.. Daniels, of Philadelphia, dated Rich.
! mond, September 20, 1919, in which an ad.
mission is made that will, to certain
extent, upset that persons claim to the
authorship of the Raven could not
make out all Of the writing on account OF
! its age and neglected condition, but what
could decipher was in these words
"Shortly before the death Of our good
| friend, Samuel Fenwick, he sent to me from
New York for publication most beautiful
| and thrilling poem, which he called the
| Raven wishing me, before printing 1t, to
see if it had merit and to make any alte-
rafions that might appear necessary. So
perfect was it in all its parts that the slight
| est improvement seemed to me impossible
But you know person very often depre'
ciates his own talents, and he even went so
| far as to suggest that in this instance, or IN
any future pieces he might contribute, !
should revise and print them in my own
| name to insure their circulation. This pro-
Dosal rejected, of course, and one way OF
other delayed printing the Raven, until,
rs YOU know, it came out in the Reyaea1,
and -. 1t was published when / was,
| unfortunately, intoxicated and, not know:
ing what did, signed my name to it, and
thus it went to the printer and was pub
lished.
sThe sensation it produced made me
dishonest enough to conceal the name o.
the real author, who had dled, rs you
! know, some time before it came out, ano
by that means | now enjoy all the credit
and applause myself. l simply make this
statement to YOU for the -. shall pro.
badly 90 to New York tomorrow, but vii
be back by October 12, Think"
This kind of stealing is worse than But
ler's mode of getting spoons. Poe was
southern man, and so Yankee must rot
him of his laurels. But the vile attempt
will fail. Poe's peculiarities are so marked
that his poems can easily be identified. M
one else could have written The Rouen
Perhaps Mr.. j. Shaver would favor Us will
some poems of Samuel Fenwick's which in
dicates his ability to have composed 1h'
Raven. --.-----.-- - y ~
