Where Booths Body Rests.


Former District Attorney Asa Bird
Gardiner and Judge A. H. DAILY, were
guests at the monthly dinner of the
Medico-Legal Society, given recently
in the Hotel st. Andrews.
DR.. George L. Porter, of Bridgeport,
of the Assassination of President Lin
coin" DR.. Porter told the story of
the assassination, and in the course
of his address, said:
81 was in medical charge in Wash
ingtOn after the murder of Lincoln,
and had unequaled opportunities for
observation. The descriptions of the
disposition of Booths body are most
inaccurate.
''The body was taken to Washing
ton, identified by many persons, and
afterward taken in a rowboat to the
Washington arsenal, and in the dead
of night, in the presence of the mill
tary storekeeper, four enlisted men
and myself, the only commissioned
officer, was hidden in a place so secret
that never to this day has it been cor
rectly described. We were requested
by Secretary Stanton 10 keep silent,
and no man during these thirty five
years has yet told. [ believe the body
was finally given to the family under
agreement never to mark by mound
or monument where it should be
placed.n

reservations she had ordered a much
nicer set of china and laid in a stocE of
provisions that just then were to be had
at lower rates, which, except that she
expected him, she could not have
thought of doing. Indeed Mrs. Burton
not only called once at his office, but
followed it up by visit to his lodging,
where she shed tears in the presence of
the person from whom he rented his
rooms, and, this still proving ineffec-
tual, she came again to department
headquarters with the manifest object
of taking the general and his staff into
her confidence, to the equally manifest
dismay of the chief and the disgust of
his adjutant general, neither of whom
could check the volume of the good la
dy's words of woe.
Loring found his soldierly commander
grinning whimsicaIly when he dropped
in to say goud morning. The general
was that rare combinatiOn-a devout
churchman and a stalwart fighter. Time
and money had he devoted to the build
ing up of this little church in the will
derness, and the communion service was
his gift. More than once had he knelt
to receive the sacred elements from the
trembling hands of the worthy rector
and listen to Mrs. Burton's ELUSIVE
"Amenr' on his left ere she parted
with the cup that was then passed to
his bearded lips. At the chancel rail all
good Christians knelt in common and
meekly bowed their heads, but when
Mrs. Burton came up to headquarters
with a rail of her own the general
couldn't stand it, and said SO to worthy
Lambert, who demonstrated with the
widow.
''Then the least he can do as a gen.
tleman after deceiving me so is to help
pay for them things l bought on the
strength of his promise to board with
me, was that pragmatical PERSONS re-
ply, and this view of the case the ener-
getic lady ventilated to her six board
ers, and they to the flock. There was
one boarder, temporary sojourner only,
who listened and said naught. But that
was only another of her aristocratic,
stuck up ways, said they. She was "a
lovely young lady" as all admitted Oh
her first timid appearance, and the
three women who sat at table with her
were eager to take her into close fellow
ship and confidence, and the two young
men, clerking in the new stores no
doubt, were as eager.
To be continued.

CHAPTER Xxx.

Within the fortnight that followed
came a climax in the life of Loring, and
astrologers who could have heard would
have made much of such a com bination
of strange influences. Having told the
general that it was his desire to find
quiet place in the northwestern section
of the new city, Loring had moved back
to the hotel. Having told the rector he
desired to obtain table board at Mrs.
Burton's, it of course resulted that the
worthy ecclesiastio should speak to her
at first opportunity, and that she should
speedily come in search of Mr.. Loring
to inquire why he had failed to carry
out his plan and further to intimate
that on the strength of the rector 6 rep

Clifford has said: "mamma, are the
stars holes in the sky to let the rain

agitation. Clifford is scarcely five
years old, whereas, according to the
best pedagogical authorities, Martin
Luther did not ask this question until
he was seven, and Alexander the
Great, in all probability, not until he
was nine. I know not what to think.
One moment l feel assured that Cliff
ford is evincing n unaffected humor,
only to be overwhelmed by the sus-

doubtful and reluctant on part of the

aware that two men were standing only
a short distance away, observing.
"Then good night" he said. "You

hat he turned sharply and went striding
back the way they came. Only one
glance did Loring give that receding
figure, but his eyes followed that Of the
girl, who SKINNED lightly up the steps
into the house, banging the door behind
her.
The rector was clinging to his arm
and looking into his face with much
concern when Loring pulled himself to-
gether.
''This is Mrs. Burton's,'' said he.
"Let Us enter. Surely you need a glass
of wine, or-water, ?" he added vaguely.
