sHELLY's uEART OR LIVER i?
The London Atheneumra raises quos-
ton OF doubt as to whether the poet
Shelley's heart really survived the
cremation to which the body WAS sub
Jected. 1t suggests in support OF 10
position that Byron, Leigh Hunt and
Wilawney, who identified the charred
substance as ths heart, were mistaken
| and argues that in cr6ma-
ton the heart being hollow
Ia easily destroyed, while the liver,
which ls the most solid mass Of the
internal organs, resists the most in
tense heat. The paper quOtos CORES

inmates in the Milan cremxtory by
means Of Venors'S reverborating fur

| dured for q considerable time;
that concentrated whirlwind of
fire remaining intact after
the heart totally disappeared.
Proceeding nom such data the writer
In she AtheRum points out that Shell
ly's liver was saturated with sea
water and was on that account more
than normally uncomfortable and
maintains that Byron and Hunt, not
being RnatOmists, easily mistoOk the
shrunken remains Of Shelly's liver for
those OF his heart and that the former
and not tho latter 1t was which Hunt
returned TO Mrs. Shelly and which
now lies encased in silver in
Toscome Hall, the family
ssat. The Atheneum concludes
by suggesting that an expert anato-
misb be permitted to examine the sup.
posed heart, for the purpose OF deter.
mining scientifically whether the
cherished remnants be called the
poets heart or his liver, both of which
wore equally useful 10 him while ht
! lived and which should be regarded a.
equally valuable still.
