There are tricks in all trades. Visitors to

teresting old woman who has charge of that
histopc house. A young American tourist
some years ago. after listening 10 her yolu-
lie information concerning the house, its
former occupant. etc. observed that she had
omitted TO say anything about an old tree
standing near by and said why don't you
make that the tree under which Shakespeare
stood when he first heard Anne's voice"
The notion seemed 10 please the custodian.
and nowadays. It's said she adds this to her
other stock stories. Ii is true that the
window which is in range of the tree. and
through which Anne's voice might have
reached the poets ear. is barred; but the fact
is carefully explained that 1t was open in
Shakespeare's time.
