The Record did not challenge "the truthful
ness and reliability Of the gentleman who
gave The State Its Information" but 1t did as.

of that Information was an ungentlemanly
violation of the confidence OF private con-

Finally, any assertion that Senator Nc

as many others have pleasure and amusement
in studying the evidences of human eccentricity
as revealed in whimsical epitaphs Her work is
an original contribution to this quaint side of
literature for she assures US that the inscrip-
lions she has collected are all authentic. Many
of the epitaphs are located and are classified geo
graphically They come from many States of
the Union and from England. Time and place
seem to exercise no controlling influence in de-
termining the vagaries Of the impulse toward
registering the merits dement's of the dead
on their tombstones. Whether in New England
or the South or in Old England the orbit of
eccentricity seems equally incalculable. One Of
the most obvious facts to record appears to have
been the disease or accident that carried off
the person commemorated. Thus we have from
Bath, Me, the epitaph of John Phillips. who
was accidentally shot a mark of affection
by his brother"
There is a more practical note in this monu-
ment to infancy in Burlington, VT:

statement of cause and effect:

And then he sang angels note.

GOLDSMITHS GRAVE.
From The Saturday Review.

From The Saturday Review.
We hear that a movement is on foot among
same peculiarly of1cious people to raise a canopy
above Oliver Goldsmith's grave in the Temple
The simplicity OF the tomb and the modesty Of
the inscription-"Here lies Oliver Goldsmith
born 10 November. 1928; died April 1774"-do
not satisfy them: they would add four marble
pillars and probably glowing epitaph and thus
spoil the quiet dignity OF the spot. This an
other instance OF self-advertisement and ex-
tremely bad taste, cannot, however, be accom-
plished without the assent Of the Benehers; and
since they love and respect the dignity and
beauty OF their domain a much as Oliver Gold
smith and Charles Lamb 1t is not at all likely
that they Will allow II TO be desecrated by the
introduction OF modern ornament that would
be totally out Of keeping with the ancient at
mosphere OF the place.
There is much doubt, by the Way a. m
whether Goldsmith does lie beneath the tomb OF
the Temple. II was not raised until 1851; and a.
tablet in the adjoining church introduced by
the Benchers, proclains him to have been buried
in the churchyard; while an old gardener seven
ty years ago declared that Oliver Goldsmith's
remains lay fifteen feet TO the north Of, the
vestry door.
