In America we have no Westminster
Abbey, and consequently our great and
good and remarkable men and women,
our statesmen and poets, patriots and
philanthropists, lie generally near the
homes they admired while living, an
where their friends may easily visit their
resting places, when dead. This, we
think, is better. The man whose life has
been illustrious, has probably been bet
ter loved at home, in his own neighbor-
hood, than In the busy mart OF trade, the
arena of politics, or at the booksellers.
And therefore it Is better that this body
should lie near those who loved him
best. For we can scarcely subscribe to
Shakespeare saying, that ''the good
which men do dies with them" 1t lives
and breaches from their graves, often
With more influence than did their lives.
| Our Westminster abbeys are scattered all
over our country. From Mount Vernon

Presidents respectively lie; from New
Hampshire to North Bend the dust OF our
Presidents rests, and their graves become
shrines and radiating influences, teach
ing patriotic lessons to the visitor and
the youth in their vicinity. Our Abbeys
for our great dead are the green groves
