Naval Heroes In the Abbey.

The well known saying, "Westmin-
ster abbey ur glorious victory, attrih-
uted TO Nelson when he boarded the
san Josef at the battle of Cape N.n-
cent, seems to point to the hero's own
wishes as to nm abbey grave But for
some unknown reason, when the end
came at the famous battle at Trafalgar
is05), Nelson was buried at St Paul 5.
and the abbey authorities, finding
crowds going there to gaze on his last
resting pluce, had an efiigy made of
him and set it up near Kempenfelt's 5
monument in order to attract people
back to Westminster, with the desired
result
The figure now stands in the Islip
Chantry chapel with the other funeral
cflgios, and is very lifelike and good
representation Of the great man. 1t is
said TO have been copied from 2 smaller
figure for which Nelson sat, in all the
clothes except the coat he actually wore
Muclise, who borrowed the hat for his
picture of the Death of Nelson, found
the marks of the eye patch ON the inner
lining and the stamp of the period in
the crown. - Pail Mall Magazine.
