uon Cesar Fetches SIsS-Other Sales.
The chief interest in the third days sale of
the Sewan library centred in the price that
was paid for ITO leaves printed by William Cax-
ton Mt Westminster In 1880. In London an inn
perfect Caxton occasionally appears for sale, n
perfect one rarely. H. Is seldom, IL ever, ono
turns up under tho hammer here. Various pre-
dictions were made before the sale as to tho
price II would fetch. The guesses were made all
the way from 5000 for the entire work to s25 u
leaf. The book was William Caxton's +" Chron-
icle OF England and came from the Gardner
sale In London in 1880. The first bid was $50
and 1t quickly run to $500. 1t was finally
knocked down to j. o. Wright & Co. for 5000
good price. considering its condition. Other
books that brought good prices were:
