Eccentric re.tator..

Joseph Dalky takes the opportunit.
afforded by his will of insulting his
son-in-law In terms which doubtless
had a pungency once, but which are
hardly comprehensible to the modern
reader: 81 give to my daughter. Ann
Spencer, a guinea for ring or any
other bauble she may like better; give
to the lout, her husband, one penny to
buy him q lark whistle, and this legacy
1 give him as a mark Of my apprecia-
tion of his prowess and nice honor in
drawing his sword on me (at my own
table,, naked and unarmed as l was,
and he well fortified with custard."
A grewsome legacy is that of Philip
Thicknesse: 81 leave my right hand, to
be cut off after my death, to my son.
and 1 desire 1t may be sent to him in
hopes that such a sight may remind
him OF his duty to God. after having SO
long abandoned the duty he owed to q
father who once affectionately loved
him." e
Another father seems apparently to
have begun his will with the determi
nation of Furnishing an unruly son, but
as the fairy stories say, all ends hap
PLY. We refer to the will of Richard
Crawshay, the founder OF the famous
Welsh ironworks. 1t runs thus: ''TC

my advice and has treated me rudely

Tennyson's well known aversion to
sightseers and their ways gave rise to
many an odd experience Once, it Is
said. he complained to Queen Victoria,
saying that he could no longer stay In
the Isle of Wight owing to the tourists
who came to stare at him.
The queen, with a kindly irony, said
that she herself did not suffer much
from that grievance. But Tennyson,
taking her literally, replied In the same
