this, and so have a pleasant society of

have been removed to the museums, but
the larger monuments that could bear
exposure have been left in their Origi-
nal positions. We saw among them tho
statue of large bull occupying the top
of a tombstone: Charon crossing the
StyX: two sisters bidding farewell; the
tomb of Hegeso. representing a lady at
her toilet attended by a female slave,
and many others We afterwards saw
beautiful statues and has reliefs and
vases. in the museum that had been
taken from this place. Many of them
represented the dead person seated and
the living friend sorrowfully
BIDDING HIM GOODBYE,
and our attention was called to the fact
that in every case, the statue of the
dead wore a calm, happy expression,
while the living friend was conyulsed
with grief. from which we argue that
the ancient Greeks believed in another
and better life and that it was well with
those who had gone to live it.
