lyn, Is about ready for casting, but the
relatives and friends Of Mr.. Reecher ore
said to be very much disappoiitedin 1t
According to one 1t bears no resemblance
at all to the great preacher. The posi-
tion is q very awkward one and the
clothes are so put on as 10 lead oAe to
think that Mr.. BeeCher must have been

because they have not been inYitedt TO see
the plaster cast at all, Notwithstanding
they are among Mr.. Beepher's nearest
friends and contributed liberally 10 the
fund for the erection Of the statue.
Dr.. searle, who knew Beecher for
mor6 than twenty-five years, and attend
cd him In his last illness, said yesterday
that the only member Of the family who
bad seen tue statue was Colonel William
O. Reecher. The widow OF tho dead
preacher had not been invited 70 look at

that he went to Mr.. Wards studio on

niEO the face as that Of Mr.. BeeCher, but
the likeness is not a good one. The
trouble is probably due to tho fact that
the photograph from which Mr.. Ward
worked was taken In a poor light and
the left side suffered from that defect"
