THEIR MOST JOYOUS MOMENT
Of the Trio, Probably Representative
Rydfield Had the Best Occa-
sion to Smile.

The talk in one of the cloak rooms
of congress turned to the thought OF
the happiest moments in ones life.
Senator Bailey said his came the day
he wore his first pair of trousers. And
Paul Rowland of Ohio declared his
big moment of Joy was when he was
permitted once to drive chariot in
pony and dog show parade.
Representative Redfield, who is a
wise chap, even If he does hail from
Brooklyn, said it was when he was
going to school and trying to master
long division. Three or four aisles
over from where he sat boy yawned.
1t was not an ordinary yawn, but one
Of such genuine expression of feeling
toward things in general that it at
tracted Redfield's attention. He was
fortunate in having a paper wad right
at hand, ready for any emergency,
and he aimed this at the boys caver-
nous mouth. The wad went right
square into the goal and-well, Fourth
of July fireworks are tame to the
stunts that boy did in the next few
minutes.
He says he almost smiled once on
shipboard when the vessel gave a
lurch and threw a platter full OF
beefstead, gracy and all, over the
open-faced shirt front Of pompous
passenger across the table.

prisoned here. I have it on the au.
knows the story of the Guildhall
through and through. that the tradi-
tion is baseless. Indeed, was John
Cotton ever imprisoned anywhere?
Nevertheless, these cruel stones are
sacred to the Pilgram Fathers. 1t is
part of history that some of the Sepa-
ratists, including William Brewster
and William Bradford, formed the res
olution of going from Boston to Hol-
land by Dutch sloop. They were ap-
pretended at the point of sailing. and
lodged, not without contumely. in
these very cells. The cells were in
the nature of place Of retention
while the prisoners were awaiting the
magistrates, rather than an actual
dungeon in which they served a SEN
tence. Eut it was heartbreaking ex-
perience for the elders, meaning
months of confinement for some Of
them. Brewster suffered the most.
1t is strange by what threads the
present is bound to the distant past.
A few PAGES from this very Guildhall
there Is another illustration of times
whirligigs. At the back of timber
yard is the red-bricll Hussey tower,
structure about as old as the ill-fated
Tattershall castle, ten miles away.
The owner was Sir John Hussey, who
was beheaded by Henry VIII. for high
treason. At about the same period a
sum of money was left by member
OF the Hussey family for the educa-
ton Of black slaves. and, strangely
enough. the fruits of that legacy have
quite recently been applied to the
work of DR.. Karl Kumm in Africa
That old tower, with it's broken para.
pet, and the land about 1t is. through
a medieval bequeathment. assisting
int Regions Beyond Missionary union.
Is 1t not strange how old things work
themselves out?

OLD PURITAN JAIL
Church Tower Where Separatists
Were Confined.
Brewster and Bradford, Who Formed
Resolution Of Going to Holland,
Were Apprehended and Placed
In Boston Edifice.

London. - The tower of Boston
church in Lincolnshire stands proud
and queenlike, it's foot all but Tapped
by the salt spray Of the Wash. Itself
is Boston-the Boston which tourists
from the greater city of Massachusetts
carry home in the minds vision. Yet
from several points of view the grand
old church, in spite Of it's lofty pin
nacles and sweet carlton, is less in
teresting and less an embodiment OF
the local past than building hun
dred yards away, which Is barnlike
by comparison. This is the old Guild
hall, long since disused for municipal
assemblies, and now to be turned into
a towns museum as memorial to
the late King.
1t still possesses a grave dignity.
You can conjure up the day when 1t
was the house of the Guild Of the
Blessed Mary-Queen Mary the Tudor
and had table of alabaster two
yards in length above which were
five candlestyks hanging like potts"
The deserted banqueting hall makes
1t easy to imagine the prodigal way In
which toasts were honored here IN
old world Novembers when the cor
poration of this ancient borough had
prestige few others could rival. The
great west window is still filled with
early tracery and some remnants of
the ancient stained glass. And the
ample hearths are here, and below In
the kitchens is the appetizing spit.
And there is something less tovial than
a spit in the kitchen. 1t holds num-
ber of prison cells.
The writer fitted himself into the
cramped space Of one of them, and
the gate was changed to; but he had
no such sinking Of the heart as some
others must have felt 800 years ago.

to the young prisoner, his father had
been hard drinker for years, ana
the members of the family suffered as
a result. The boy claims his mother

neither he nor his mother appears TO

Young Watt is about six feet tall and

he lived with his family near Murrys-
