upon which to work, for none exists.
They had to be guided by the descrip-
tons of the hero which have been
handed down and by their own con-
ceptions of his appearance and express
sion.
Each statue has its own special ad-
mtrers. Hale was twenty-one at the
time of his cruel death. Perhaps he
seems more boyish in the statue by
Mac Monies. Partridge has succeeded
we'll in expressing in the features OF
his Hale the patriotic fervor of the
young enthusiast in the cause of the
new nation and his athletic qualities.
The hero was about six feet tall and
could put his hand on a fence as high
as his head and clear it with bound.
The spot on the Yale campus where he
made the famous jump that marked
him as the best all around athlete Of
the college was shown for years after
his time. He is said to have possessed
not only ideal proportions, but a grace
and charm which endeared him to all
he met. Yale men are enthusiastic
over the manner in which Mr.. Par
