the Importance that absurdly insignifi-

says the Philadelphia Press. When the

the declaration of Independence was in

in q hall close TO which was situated a
livery stable. The weather was warm,
and from the stable came swarms of
flies that lighted on the legs Of the

Through the thin silk stockings then
in fashion, gave infinite annoyance It

matters De hurried 80 that the body
might ad i07Iru and get AWAY from the

George Sheldon, the venerable anti

History of Deerfeld, on which he has
been working for twenty years is now
passing through the press, and will be

Deerfeld is also the home Of Mr..
Luther j. B. Lincoln, the originator of
the Uncut Leaves" societies and of
classes for literary criticism. J. Wells
Champney, the artist, also has his sum
mer studio there, though abroad this
year.
Any mention of Deerfeld would be
incomplete without reference TO the
house and studio of the late George
Fuller. They lie about two miles south
OF the village, and the way TO them is
through waving fields Of corn and to-
bacco, the latter the great crop of the
Connecticut valley bottoms. George
Fuller's personality overshadows all
other associations of Deerfeld. Here
he fought out the battle between ma
terialiSm and art, and here he at last
won. As l came down the road saw
his son Henry preparing to leave on a

The Ely house, which. Judge Shurt-
left has named "ShirecIiffe" after the
ancient spelling of his own family
name, Is perhaps the best example OF
Colonial architecture m central Massa-
chusettS. At the time it was built by
Deacon Nathaniel Ely in 1856, it was
the most pretentious house on the Con-
necticut river. Very little injury has
come to the exterior, the walls being
made of fint-like brick and cement,
but the interior had suffered somewhat
from negligence when the judge ac-

the historic old homestead has fallen
into the careful hands of this ex-oliicer,
jurist and scholar.
1t was here that Eleazar Williams
was brought to be educated in 1900.
The good Deacon Nathaniel Ely, Jr.,
son of the builder of the house, was
related by marriage to Eleazar's sup
posed father. who was a grandson OF
that Eunice Williams, daughter of Rev
John Williams, carried into captivity
at the sacl1irg Of Durfeld in 1904.
Eunice, her daughter, and her grand
son had all married Indians, and it was
in the family Of the latter that the
Dauphin was supposed to have been
adopted when secretly removed TO Cau-
ada in 1898. at the time of the announce
ment OF his death. Deacon Ely knew
nothing of this BE was only anxious
to reclaim some of his relatives chill
dren. and Eleazar and his supposed
brother, John Williams, accordingly
came to the Ely house IN 1900.
Although supposed to he brothers,
the disSimllarity in their appear

had the long, black hair. complexion

the readers curiosity as TO how he died
very much unsatisfied. Another man is
buried side by side with his three

Still further north, and across the
line in Hampshire county, is Northamp-
ton, now especially distinguished as
the home of George W. Cable. His
house is naturally the first to which a
literary pilgrim would bend his steps.
1t has recently been completed, and
bears the aluring name of ''Tarrya-

colonial buff walls and gambul roof
stand fair against the pines and chest
nuts OF Paradise woods, so named by
Jenny Lind, who spent her honeymoon
In the neighborhood. About the
grounds are trees planted by friends of
the author, one planted by Max ORen,
being a special credit to its godfather.
Mr.. Cable has inaugurated real-estate
boom IN his part of Northampton. He
was the first to realize its picturesque
ness and value as building site. and
he organized a company to lay out and
improve the land. Houses are going up
all about him, and he is said to enjoy
considerably the surprise of his friends
at the financial success of his under
taking. It should be remembered,
however, that Mr.. Cable had long.
business experience in New Orleans
before he began his work in fiction.
