Relics of stephen Girard's Home Life
in the College Museum.

Philadelphia Times.

Philadelphia 1lmeS.
When the young Scottish-American sculp-
tor, J. Massey Rhind, came to model the
statue of Girard, which was unveiled with
elaborate ceremonial yesterday afternoon,
he sought permission to study the contents
of the relic room of Girard College, and
to his delight, and certainly 10 ms great
assistance captured an old suit of Glrard
clothes. These served as a model Tor the
dress in the now much-talked-ot statue at
the City Hail.
According to the will of Stephen Girard
one room in the college was to be set apart
for the exhibition of some of his personal
household effects. For years there was a
room on the third floor of the main build
ing of the college, known as the museum
in which a few relics, furniture and Girard S
old gig were stored; but no definite efforts
We're expended to make the apartment
well-organized feature. Recently, however,
through the efforts of John ii. Mlchener,
Girard memorial room was established on
the first floor of the main building OF the
college, and in it all the old relics, carefully
renovated with many others, discovered in
out-of-the-way places, were gathered To-
gether, making a remarkably interesting
and really valuable exhibition. The tur-
niture, silver and china here TO be seen
are strikingly suggestive of the domestic
furnishings of a merchant prince OF the
early century Girard's residence on Water
street united in a happy combination both
comfort and a very considerable degree of
elegance His biographer Henry A; Ingram
gives us many interesting particulars. Inc
