Sir: Your correspondent from Crawford, N j.
sounds the first note in opposition to the Beecher
memorial 1 have been waiting to see something
from the old members of Plymouth Church, but
thus far have been disappointed. 1 supposed they
would rise and protest against the re-
movaI from Greenwood Cemetery Of Mr. Beecher's
body 1t is well to build chapel in memory of the
founder of the church but, in the name of all that
is good and sacred, let Mr.. Beecher lie where he
was buried by his own family, and where he had
so often expressed a wish to be inferred. AS your
correspondent SO aptly puts it: 1--WE cannot endure
TO think of Mr. Beecher beneath slab. inside a
building: II would be contrary to everything he
ever thought or lived; When it was possible for for
him to do so he spent his time among trees. hoW-
ers and birds, and where could be found a more
beautiful or more congenia spot for the last sleep

TAX VALUATIONS.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: When reading The Tribune Of January II
saw an article headed '"Tax Valuations" written
by Benjamin B. Wood. Let me say that I quite
agree with his views in every particular. Assess
ments this year are, in my opinion, absurdly high'
especially in the tenement district, where much OF
the property assessed twice much as last year
does not even pay expenses. Cannot some thought
be given to the realization e. the true fact? 1t
certainly would be wise and fair and relieve many
worried minds M L. FANNINeT'
