William Willard Named the Town.

William Willard Named the Town. ,
The late William Willard of Stur-
bridge, we'll known as the painter of
Massachusetts governors, was very
eccentric in many ways. His special
aversion was the attempted purchase of
his many old articles of furniture by
people of wealth.
A New York lady visiting in the vi
entity of Sturbridge, hearing that the
old artist possessed a beautiful colonial
mirror and a rare clock. tried to buy
them. Mr.. Willard seemed to readily
agree to the sale, but when asked when
it would be convenient to have them
packed, replied: mot until after the
funeral"
Whose funeral?" asked the lady.
Nine replied Mr.. Willard with a
chuekle.-Boston Herald.
