Mrs Grant has an easy, pleasant way
Of chatting aud there is nothing CT con-
scious pride In her manner, for she, on
the contrary, loves the quiet and seclu-
sion OF home. Rather short, with o
plump figure handsomely Rowned In
black, her personality is pleasing, and
she takes a grand mothers pride In the
young generation that is growing up
around her.
In spite of numerous requests, Mrs.
Grant has done little literary work as
yet, but she is now preparing for the
press what will be q volume OF very
valuable historical reading. II Is s
journal of her life in which she follows
no the career Of her husband, and step
by step describes events as they ara
pictured on her memory. But this
work will not DO completed for some
time 20 come, and when flushed she
estimates the value OF IL will reach one

no such leeway as this makes possible
was probably contemplated when the act
was passed. Accordingly it would seem
that under the law no steps can be taken
to shut up the Boston gambling joint now
running full blast in Cranston, unless the
lawyers can read the law more literally
than the wording gives perfectly clear
warrant for. II will, TO be sure, be
noted in this connection that the
grounds" are only thus protected when
"the races aforesaid take place" and that
the traces aforesaid are those of the
Agricultural Society. But the fact that the
town OF Cranston permits the opening OF
the gambling enterprise now going on at
Narragansett Park would indicate that
even thus the law is not perfectly clear.
Perhaps the Attorney General could
give the Cranston Town Council q more
precise Interpretation.
What public sentiment can do mean
while is question.
At any rate the spectacle at Narragan-
sett Park Is an interesting one and it will
be still more interesting to have the name
and fame OF these Plantations banded
about the country and hawked in every
pool room in the East.

Whalen and her family, were the only
ones at the grave yard. The funeral was
