Welbeck Abbey.

In the midst of ancient Sherw ood
forest, where the famous bandit Robin
| Hood lived. there is today great es-
tate which embodies all that Is best in
the traditions of the English landed
nobility.
Welbeck Abbey Is the home of the
Duke OF Portland, and has been for
centuries. There are $4,000 acres in
the estate, of farms and old oak for
eets, and park lands with shaded drives.
Just beyond the abbey grounds are
ffty-six lodges, which are the homes
Of the gardeners and farmers. Each is
an attractive cottage. set In a mass
Of flowers, for the present duke offers
a prize for the best garden every year.
There are more than thousand per
sons in all in the direct employ of the
estate. It has its own schoolhouse,
where education is both free and COM
pulsory, and Its fire department and its
owl. church. When any OF the people
of the estate are sick they are attended
by the dukes physician. and receive
flowers and fruit from his greenhouses.
The duke. in fact, is a man of many and
curious philanthropies. Not long ago he
whom he had taken from behind the
bars and set on the road to prosperity,
and another time he had over thou
sand crippled children at the abbey for
an outing, ana again II was q party OF
vaudeville actors from London.
The estate includes acres Of green
houses where the duke makes a speciality
of fruits and flowers. and where are
thousands of dwarf trees bearing i'm
mense pears and apples and peaches.
each tied up in netting. The stables
contain a selection of hacks and hunt
ers and coach horses that a king might
envy; not to mention the racers, of
which the duke maintains a splendid
string.
The curiosity Of the abbey is the sub
terranean palace. which was built by
the fifth duke, an eccentric old man.
who closed the estate to the public for
eighteen years and spent millions of
dollars in constructing an underground
mansion, complete from kitchen and
pantry to the wonderful art gallery.
lighted by immense chandeliers and
containing one OF the most remarkable
private art collections in England.
welbeck Abbey is in many ways typi-
cal of the great landed estates Of Eng
land-of their wealth and beauty. and Of
the fine sense OF responsibility which
their owners have shown toward the
people that lived upon them-but 1t is
of an order that is passing. Many
thousands of acres of great estates
have been sold within the past decade
in small holdings, which are now be-
coming the prevailing order in England.
