is 1T PROVOST?

II III PNOhOUNlE
Provost or Provost Is a name that
at once arouses the curiosity OF the
one interested in name origin. The
nrst spelling suggests Dutch origin,
and the fact that the PrOvOsts were
first settled in New York suggests
that they might have been Colonists
from old Netherlands. But the fact
is that the Provosts or Provoosts are
OF French origin and MAT the fam
iiy traces descent back TO William
Provost or Provost, a French
Protestant, who with his wife, fed
from his native land on the day OF
the massacre OF ST. Bartholomew.
They found shelter and home in
Holland. One account tells us that
William had a son, Jonathan, who
had a son David, born In Holland In
1000 who came 10 New Amsterdam
or New York In 1924. Others are not
so certain OF the links between VIII

The merry face, the deep. char

But these, ah these are sleeping
where the hillsides glows with
sunset,
And the little boy, my darling that

My little son, my little son, there
are starry paths at nighttime,
Above the swaying tree-tops wllsge
the birds are fast asleep;
Does he wander up and down them
with the winds in endless play

Does he read in sudden manhood all

He comes and nestles by me on my
