cold and windy night, must have been
very trying upon his physical strength.
The entire distance was covered, too,
in inky darkness, condition which
seems to indicate that there was some
very strong and unusual reason for
their departure from Blue Gap. In
addition to this. the clergynlen would
not talk OF their experiences. and since
returning to Richmond have refused
to talk about their visit, save to ad-
nit that they were IN Lynchburg.
1t is generally believed that Bishop
Van de Vyver went to Blue Gap Farm
to confer with Mrs. Gould over the
establishment of an Industrial school
there for negro Catholics from North
orn cities, and it is quite evident that
.he conference did not take place. That
;he visit was also cut short is evident
from the manner in which they re-
turned to the city.

The burial will probably be delayed

ia house.
The fireproof house has to be put
up in Sc hours. Not until Monday
morning. May 16. can the job be
started, because the garden will be
occupied by another show up to tina,
time. The materials are being
gathered and the masons will be
awaiting the signal before sunrise on
the 18th.
Green turf is to be laid around the
house to form the lot. and real vines
will trail over the trellis which is
to be supported by white columns
fianking the entrance. Flower pots
will be displayed on tiny window bal.
comics and brick pathway will lead
to the door.
The hollow fireproof blocks are to
be exposed in places. to show how
they are put together. Most of the
interior. however, will be finished,
the plaster being applied directly to
the surface of the terra Gotta. Par,
of the ceiling will be finished and
part left bare.
Terra Gotta dwellings have come
into use only in recent years. They
are direct result of the scarcity
and consequent high price of lum-
Der. The saving in insurance
premiums and in repairs makes up
for the difference in original cost he
tween the! frame dwelling and the
fireproof dwelling.
