UNABLE TO IDENTIFY MUMMY
london officials in Something of a

One of London's problems at the
present hour is what TO do with a
mummy that lies at the back OF the
Mansion house in one of the Oldest
churches of that ancient city. No one
knows where it came from, and the
ocular element around the Mansion
house describe 1t as "Old Jimmy-a
former lord mayor CT London" The
rector is in quandary over its dis
posal. The figure is perfectly pre-
served: eyes. hair, nose teeth, nails
and ribs.
Inside the door of the mummy's box
is a glass lid, which was removed a
few days ago for the first time for
many years. The mummy was cover
ed with cobwebs, but was still in good
condition. at feels like leather" said
an onlooker as he touched "Old Jim
my's" elastic ribs. The rector invites
suggestions from the public as what to
do with the mummy. The mystery as
to its identity arises from the fact
that during the great London fire in
1866, 1t was hurriedly removed from
another church, and placed where it
now lies so as to escape the ravages
of the conflagratlon.
