BUSTS or MR. WEED AND II. c. MURPHY

u. b. Sheahan, the sculptor, who took n plaster
cast of the face of Thurow Weed on the day after
he died, has just finished bust Of Mr. Weed,
which Is to be cast IN bronze. Besides having per.
sonally known Mr.. Weed for number OF years and
being well acquainted with his most characteristic
expressions, Mr. Sheahan has had access to large
number of his photographs, taken at various times
IN the last ten years These have greatly aided
him IN his work. The clay model, still in Mr. Shea.
hans studio, No. S42 Broadway, may be said to
represent Mr.. Weed as he appeared about five years
ago, before he lost his eyesght and before old age
had impressed itself strongly upon his countenance
The face wears a quiet dignity throughout. the
mouth showing the tirmness well as the kindl-
head giving fair indication OF bif penetrating
mind. Some of the members of Mr.. Weeds family
DIR. Chadbourne, and other friends have the
bust and have pronounced 1t an excellent portrait.
The death-mask. which hangs in Mr.. SDeahans
studio, does not very much resemble Dir. Weed as
his friends knew him. but ii recalls the placid face
of the old man as he lay in his coffin.
Mr.. Sheahan is at present at work upon and has
almost finished bust of the late Henry g. Muir.
