was found dead in his library with his
head upon Il book. %Barthelemy was
reading Horace, we are informed,
when, his hand becoming cold, he
dropped the book. his head inclined to
one side, and he seemed only to sleep.
His nephew, however. discovered that
he was dead. Bayle expired while
correcting the proof sheets of his die
%tionary. Waller died repeating some
lines Of Vergil. Although taken away
In the midst of life" Keats end did
