widely scattered since the robbery was
committed. The largest piece remaining
is in the hands or the construction COM
pany that is now engaged in erecting an
Office building on the old site.
Mgr. Lee, rector OF ST. Matthews. could
not be located
According to the story given out last
tion work Of the new building. the corner
stone was found shattered three weeks
ago. At that time nothing was said
either at the church or at the rectory
concerning the contents.
1t was learned yesterday that il was
devoid OF the customary metallic box
sealing the records Of the edihce. a fore
man at the lot said that the stone, when
unearthed. contained no box
No Tin Box Found.
II is reported that the stone was first
discovered when the demolition work was
begun. A negro unearthed II. and with
the aid or several companions rIned the
contents
The stone was hidden in the basement
at the northeast corner Of the lot 1t
was buried under several feet Of sand. so
that the robbery would not be discov-
cred until the work Of tearing down the
old building was completed
Several rosaries. including one Of
pearl, with a gold chain, were taken
from the stone and sold for a pittance,
1t is said. The workmen took precau-
tions TO destroy all traces Of the records,
deeds, &C.
Rector Promptly Notified.
When the stone was taken from the
basement of the building a few weeks
ago the rector Of the church was noti-
fed OF the discovery. In the top Of the
stone was a circular hole about eight
inches in diameter filled with sand The
stone was taken to the Office Of the con-
struction company. An energetic search
failed TO reveal any trace OF the missing
box.
Employees Of the company that had
charge of the work OF demolishing the
old structure said yesterday that the ne
gro work gang deserted the fob after the
stone was found. and some OF them be-
came intoxicated.
The stone was about two feet square
and fourteen inches thick. A circular
hole IN the top showed where the records
had been stored.
II Is not known what action the church
authorities Will take in the matter. Mgr.
Lee refused TO discuss that phase OF the
question a few weeks ago. Cardinal Glib

GEO. VANCE'S LETTERS.
To Preserve and Publish Letters
ard Papers of Gov. Vance
How A Service May be Rem

To the People of North Carolina:
The North Carolina Historical
Commission is making a collec-
ton of the letters and papers of
Gov. z. B. Vance, with a view to
their preservation and publica-
ton. Through the cooperation
of Mrs. Vance several thousands
of such documents have been Sc
cured, making one of the most
important manuscript collections
ever made by the State. The
publication of these papers will
do more to establish the States
Confederate history beyond dis
pute than any other collection in
existence.
But, unfortunately, this collec-
ton contains but few of Cover
nor Vance's own letters, most of
those in the collection being let
tiers received by him. It is most
important that the publication
should contain as many of his
own letters as possible.
The Historical Commission,
therefore, takes this means of
requesting those who possess
letters of Governor Vance to turn
them over to the commission,
either for permanent preserva-
ton or for copying. Noletter or
paper is so unimportant or trivial
but it may have it's place in such
collection; and, we think, the
personnel Of thes Historical Com
; mission is sufficient guarantee
that no improper use will be made
of any letter or paper. The pub.
