grew parcels Of this land were given away

While London condemns it's church
yards in the city's heart and turns them
into parks and breathing spots for the
city's poor, New York cherishes Trinity 8
moldy old tombstones, and dotes on its
graves within which sleep 100000 dead
people. As long ago as 1882 burial in the
churchyard was forbidden. But under
it's sod beneath the trees repose the bones
of the ancient vestrymen who lived at a
time when the home of Shakespeare at
Stratford was still commonplace. There
also are buried members of New York s
best families. There, too, are the tombs
of Gen. Kearney, of Robert Fulton, of AL
bert Gallatin, of William Bradford, Of
Hamilton. And ''Trinity chimes" may
still be heard, but not always. Their
sweet tones ordinarily are drowned in the
thunder of Broadway, but when there is
lull in the storm their notes are clear
and thousand times more dulcet because
of the incongruity of their surroundings.
The celebration of Trinity's bicentennial
will be great affair. Eminent Episcopal
prelates and priests from all parts of the
country will go to New York to take
part in it.
