The theme of "Pelleas and Nell

Robert Louis Stevenson, who is buried
on the summit of the forest clad Naila
in the island of Samoa. The day after
his death ut Vailima, in 1894, his re,
mains We're carried to the top of this
precipitous and picturesque peak by
sixty sturdy Samoans, who had loved
and now mourned their dead chief,
Tusitula. A party of forty had pre-
viously cut pathway through the
thick, tangled wood with knives and
axes, while another party had pre-
pared the grave. With infinite care
and trouble they bore him shoulder
high over the rough ground to his last
long home, and there, under the starry
sky, they left him to sleep forever, with
the Pacific Mt his feet. On either side
of his tombstone is a bronze plate
One bears the words, "'The Tomb of
Tusltula," while the other is inscribed
with his own requiem, beginning:
Under the wide and starry sky

he had left no good work behind. An
American editor dined with Barring
Gould in London. The talk turned to
the premature obituaries, and the
American said, GLOW did you feel on
reading them?' Taken aback, non
plusad, the novelist grimly replied:
