One of the most extraordinary par
act coincidence of the time spent il
the world by two men who had so much
to do with the molding of the literature

Orleans TimeS-Democrat. Du Maurier
the elder of the two, was born exactly
IT. days before Morris, on March 6, 1884
and he died but four days after him !;
So that these two great men, who lived
more than 60 years, were on the cart b
for exactly the same time, with the eX-
ception of less than three weeks, bot
being born in March, 1894, and diving

John Millais and the archbishop of
Canterbury, who died within Il month
or two of each other, were born in 1870.
