LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

Will you kindly allow me to correct
through your paper, a few mistakes in
the interesting article on the Francis
Aiexanders. contributed by your Put

days Bulletin?
Francis Alexander was the son of
Nell (net Wtliam) Alexander, and
was born in Killingly in 1900, the
youngest brother Of Col. William Alex
ander (who, by the way, had no mid
die name), and was, therefore, the I'M
Gle. not the brother, of Luther D. AL
exander. Was 1t not rather inconsist-
ent t0, quote from a magazine the
fact that Mrs. Alexander Is 'the old
est among American women who write
books" and then to say that she was
IAN Italian lady of high rank? AS
a matter of fact she was Miss Lucia
SWEET Of Boston, daughter Of a long
line of patriotic American ancestors.
She married Mr.. Alexander in Boston,
and they went to Italy, but after a
few years they returned to America,
where he established a studio in Bos-
ton with residence in Lynn. They
remained here for a number OF years,
but the fascination which life in Italy
has for the artist finally proved too
great to be resisted, and they decided
to fold their tents. like the Arabs.
and as silently steal away"-away to
their beautiful Florence. where Mr..
Alexander died in 1881. and where the
wife and daughter still live.
I might add that the daughter,
Francesca, has devoted her whole life
to charity, and has won from the poor
among whom that life has been spent,
the proud title of Fair Saint Of Flor
ence." She inherited her fathers tai
emit, and her work, both in painting and
in the writing of books, has brought
bountiful remuneration, which has
been spent solely for the amelioration
OF the poverty and sufferings Of the
people whom she has learned to love.
and for the hospitals. which she visited
regularly until failing health and eye
