his friends obtained leave to bury him
at the meeting house. The story runs
that it. having been decreed that his
body should not be permitted to pass
through the gates, the coffin was lifted
over the palings.
At the present time the meetings At
Jordans are held only once a year, usu-
ally at the end OF May, or as the
Friends themselves quantity express
it, the first day of the fourth week of
the fifth month. The old sect has died
out, and but few Friends live in the
immediate neighborhood. Nevertheless
the meeting is largely attended by
Friends who come from afar and By
members of other denominations. Nor
is Jordans left alone or forgotten dur
ing the other months of the year. for
the visitors book shows how many
come from all parts of the world to see
the old place. Most are perhaps Amer

heard to say: Americans come from

The beautiful surroundings of this
little Quaker building cannot but
charm all who visit it, especially in the
spring time when the beech woods arc
covered with their first young green,
the ground carpeted with primroses or
wild hyacinths, and the air laden with
the scent of white violets. A haven Of
rest and of peace is this old-world
building, that for more than two CEN
turtles has stood intact, in spite of the
many changes in the outer world, and
the controversies that have ragged with
in its very doors. If only the walls

Of their meeting house, for, if remote
now, how much more remote must it
have been when it was first built 200
years ago.
During the year 1857 momentary
peace was granted to the Quakers by
the declaration of indulgence. It was
then, that Jordans was built. They do
not seem to have been long left undis-
turbed, as one frequently reads of SOL
diers rushing in at their meetings, and
the Friends themselves being made to
pay heavy fines, or even being thrown
into prison. To protect their women
from persecution, the gallery in which
they sat- was provided with sliding
shutters, which were hastily closed in
the event of an intrusion. Thus were
dame and damsel safely concealed till
all danger was past.
Before the present Jordans was built,
meetings were held in farmhouse on
the top of the hill close by. The build
ing is still standing, known as Jordan's
farm. 1t probably took its name from

seldom cut low around the neck. That
senseless and dangerous fashion of the
collarless coat seems threatened, and
every one should rejoice thereat. There
was nothing more comfortable and

new ones are very, shapely. Empire

Probably the empire will find favor

Jordan. 1t was not until 1857 that it
was decided to erect meeting house
in the little plot of ground acquired
some 16 years previously for burial

meeting was held at New Jordans. -

Lightning never kills people in
Cities" said an insurance agent. my
company's statistics show that in
cities there is practically no danger
of death from lightning stroke. Look
back and ask yourself if you ever heard
of anyone being killed by lightning on
Broadway, or in front of the Auditori-
UNI, or on Beacon street, or on Chest
nut street, or on Nicolet avenue?' No.
It*is in the country or in little villages
that the all-dreaded thunderstorm does
it's deadly work. Why are cities in
this way immune? Some say it is be-
cause they have no trees to attract the
lightning. Some say it is because the
cloud of factory smoke above their
roofs is protection. At any rate, stay
in town this summer If you want to be
safe from thunderstorms."
