the love and beauty of nature. So quietly
did his soul depart that the members of the
family were not aware of cha fact till 1t was
announced by the attendant physician.
Once or twice during the night he lifted
his eyes to the faces Of the watchers and a
peaceful smile played over his features.
Lady Tennyson, though feeble herself. bore
up we'll when informed that all was over.
There Is a strange coincidence in the fact
that ono year ago to-day Charles stuart

son.
