when the oratorio was first produced in Lon

ing entertained the town Tor a whole week,

Hester Thrn O Romnnce.

The ntory OF the wooing Of Dir. Henry
Gladstone, son OF the eI-premier, and
Miss Maud Rendel, has Just transpired.
It seems that the two met in the summer
of 1859 at PosilHpo, the young lady's
father having at that picturesque little
hamlet On the gulf Of Naples a lovely
villa. One beautiful evening the two
were in the garden overlooking the water
upon which the moonlight hung like
misty gauze; the scene was one of poetic
loveliness-young Gladstone felt that
there never could be fairer spot or
better moment for the confession of his
love, so he declared himself TO his mann
orata with fervor which the pictur
esqueness OF the surroundings enhanced,
if it did not inspire. Instead, however,
of answering him the pretty girl covered
her face with her hands and fed precip-
itately into the villa.
OF course this astoun6ed the young
