his receipt reading Sin full for build
ing ye meeting house in Duxbury."
1t was dated February %, 1907, and
the words we meeting house" seem
to indicate that none had existed pre-
viously.
In the grave yard was q stone
marked 1895, but it has been removed
within few years. At Plymouth
the pilgrim burial ground was sew eral
minutes walk from the church, and
it was not until 1880, as stones there
show, that it was removed to the
neigh borhood of the church. The
fact that the church was built some
time after the spot was used for inter.
ments tends to show that the
inhabitants located the church
there in tbe late years and
probably consecrated the cemetery
there, 1t having been common burial
plot previously. Such q view would
explain any differences arising from
the question as to whether Standish
was or was not q Romanist. Addi-
tiOnal interest attaches to this discov-
cry of the grave of Standish from the
fact that the monument to his memo
ry-a national memorial is about
completed and will be dedicated this
summer. 1t stands on the summit of
his old farm, and is round tower of
granite 100 feet high, and cost over
SAC, 900. The statue of the pilgrim
captain is about 800 feet above the sea,
and is prominent landmark.

ALL LINES.
The Section Fast Recovering from the
Effects of the Financial Stringency.
Bureau of Information.
Boston Advertiser.

The steady improvement previously re-
ported in the South becomes more pro
nounced every week, and, while there are
some complaints of inactivity at special
points, due to local causes, the gen,
eral advancement of the whole South shows
that this section is fast recovering from the
troubles brought on by the late financial
stringency. New enterprises OF great
magnitude and of far-reaching importance,
as well as many smaller ones, are reported
in this weeks issue~of the Baltimore Manu-
facturers' Record. OF vital interest to iron
and steel makers everywhere, is the sign
ing of a contract by c. P. Huntington to
build railroad to the great Bessemer ore
district of Llano, Tex, which will open up
district that is pronounced by experts to
