A COLLECTION OF FAMOUS VIO-
Inns.

The death of the late Mrs. r. d. Hawley,
of Hartford, Conn, will, it is thought,
lead to the dispersion of the famous collec-
ton of violins made by Mr.. Hawley, and
the people of that city are wondering what
will become of the notable instruments.
instruments, several genuine Anti VIC
Inns, two or three of Stradivarius make,
more than two centuries old, and the famous
"king Joseph violin, used by pupil of
Stradiyarius. Mrs. Hawley had been urged
by friends to leave the collection to the
Connecticut Historical Society, but it ap-
pears that she did not do it.
