be finished in a few weeks, he will be
the only white man living in the block
which his house faces.
Soon after President Taft appointed
Governor Hughes to the Supreme

spent several days looking for a
house. He was not satisfied with any
thing on the market and rented
large, old fashioned house in Massa-

many afternoons house hunting. but
they were disappointed again, and
decided finally to build a home. JUS

he expected to spend the greater part

in the last two years. In 1910 more

and it was always a joy to us young
sters when he came for his visit to my

stories enlivened the whole household.
Once when he was staying with us he

"One Sunday morning, just after
breakfast. 1 repaired to the rector's
study, where I was soon followed by
his little four-year-old son, who
climbed up on my knee and began to
talk Suddenly the little fellow looked
up into my face and said: fBissop, do
200 want to see my piggy book?'
Eyes, indeed said 1. So the child
slid down and started to get the book.
When halfway across the room a sud
den idea seemed to strike him, and.
running back and putting one hand on
my knee, he looked up in my face and
shook his little foref1nger at me, whis-
pering: 'Bissop. it's Sunday We must
