handsome oil portraits of the lato William W.
Corcran in New York, and despite his we'll known
modesty it is probable he left more such pictures
of himself than any public man who has died in
recent years. The way OF it was this: He inva-
riably deprecated public or formal acknowleig
ment of the benefactions he constantly made TO
deserving institutions. And to show their graft
tude as well as to honor their benefsctor, these
institutions in nearly every case had handsome
portraits of Mr.. Corcoraa painted by the best at
