Grub street. London.

Up to the seventeenth century Grub
street was on the outskirts OF London.
II was street tenanted by bowyers.
fletchers, makers of bowstrlngs and
everything else that appertained to
archery. Later on John Fox lived In
Grub street, though he did not write
his famous Book of Martyrs" there.
Fox's residence In Grub street occurred
about 1872. John Speed, the tailor
archaeological, was resident Of Grub
street, where he was famous as the

to populate Grub street In any num-

great number Of seditious and libelous
pamphlets were circulated, and as the
authors for safety had TO seek obscure
living places, they found fitting re-
treat In the maze of alleys Which
webbed the Grub street section. At
any rate, by the commencement of the
eighteenth century Grub street had be-
come quite notorious as the poor au-

in costume. She also prepared a fishing
pond and each child was awarded four

DEATH OF Mr., BATEMAN,

Mr.. Joseph f. Bateman, highly re-
spected and prominent citizen of Hartford
county, died at his home in Bel Air on
Monday. He was in his cighty-seventh
year, and had always been a prominent
factor both politically and socially. Of
pleasing manner he made host of friends,
and his death coming ateven his ripe old
age will be kcenly regretted by the many
persons who knew him. He was born at
Darlington and afterwards removed to
Baltimore. He was one ofthe proprietors
of the stage line that ran between Bel Air
and that place. He was also proprietor
of the Franklin Hotel, which stood on the
present site of Hillcn Street Station. He
afterwards engaged in the mercantile
business in Baltimore, being associated
with his brother. He was elected Sheriff
of Hartford county in 1859, during the
days of Know Nothingism, and was one
of the few Democrats who were successful.
He was also twice elected County Com
missioner. Mr.. Bateman's allegiance
through life was to the Democratic party,
and being great reader, was one of the
best posted men on. the current topics of
the day. 1t was his favorite pastime to
enter into friendly political discussions,
and in nearly every case his opponent
was worsted in the argument. He is
survived by three sons, Messrs. Howard
Bateman, of West Virginia; Walter Bate
man, of Grafton, and Harry Bateman,
and two daughters, Misses Julia and
Mary Bateman. His wife died very sud-
denly few years ago. His funeral took
place on Wednesday, the interment being
at Rock Spring Cemetery. Rev. L. ID.
Finney and Rev. 5. S. Grcenwell were the
officiating ministers. The pail bearers
were George X. Cairnes, Lawrence For
wood, ]. r. c. Hopkins, George Y. Magma
der, w. S. Forwood, Jr., and Ohio S.
