He Was It.
From the Philadelphia Telegram.

Augustus Hare tells an amusing story of
one of his charming peripatetic lectures in
Rome He had conveyed his little flock,
which included at least one live prince,
through the Palace Of the Caesars and had
gathered them near the Forum, when he OBJ
served a mysterious stranger who had at
tached himself to the party looking more
and more angry every minute At length
this interloper could stand Mr.. Hare no
longer. He burst forth in denunciations
"All that this person has been telling you,"
he informed the party in a loud voice,
about the Palace Of the Caesars he has had
the effrontery to relate to you as II 1t were
his own. You will be astonished, gentlemen
and ladies, to hear that 1t is taken word for
word-word for word, without the slightest
acknowledgment-from Mr.. Hare's Walks
in Rome" "All 1 said," says Mr. Hare
was: oh, l am so much obliged to YOU
did not know there was anybody in the
world who would defend my interests so
kindly. l am Augustus Hare" It was a
magnificent moment.
