Burying the Great Seal

From London I1t-BltS.
 As ford chancellor, Sir Stanley Buck master becomes the custodian of the Great Seal, the emblem of sovereignty, which is appended to only the most inn portant class of public document, such as writs for summoning Parliament, treaties, and official acts of state. A new seal Is made for every new sov- ereign, or on the occasion of change of arms or style, the old one being solemnly broken Since 1757 the chancellor has been the only keeper of the great seal, though. in certain circumstances, it may be entrusted for the time to the lords commissioners.
 In spite of the great care with which it Is guarded, however, the great seal has passed through some curious adven- lures. It has been stolen, twice thrown into rivers, and once destroyed by fire, heinz afterwards saved with some dif- ficulty. In 1872 the lord chancellor's house took fire, and Lord Eldon ran out of his bedroom with the seal, which he buried in the flower garden.
 A distressing misadventure once befell Lord Chancellor Brougham when he took the great seal with him on round of country house visits in Scotland. At Rothiemurchus, then the residence of the Dowager Duchess of Belford. Brougham found a large party of English ladies, who in fun, stole the great seal and hid 1t where neither he nor his attendants could discover 1t.
 Brougham got so distressed that the ladies relented. assuring him that 1t was in the drawing room, and that they would allow him to find it blndfolded. So the lord chancellor was blindfolded, and ait CT groping about for sometime he ulti- mately laid his hands on tea-caddy, in which the precious seal reposed.
 When Lord Thurlow was chancellor and lived at 45 Great Ormond street, Queen square, the great seal, MT. Arthur E. Engelbach tells us, in More Anecdotes of Bench and Bar" Grant Richards) was stolen from his house the day before the dissolution of Parliament. The thieves got in by scaling the garden wall and forcing two iron bars out of the kitchen window. They then made their way to the chancellor's study, broke open the drawers of his writing table. rapsacked the room, and carried away the great seal rejecting the pouch as of little value and the mace as too unwieldy. The thieves were discovered but the seal. be- ing of silver, was put into the melting pot, and patents and important public documents were delayed until new seal was made
