cording to lions Herald, with whose
courtesy we publish this story he left
by will his entire library of about
900 volumes to hts nephey Judge
Bushrod Washington. When the judge
passed away he in turn willed the

of the library was purchased by Hen
ry Stevens, g. book dealer. who an
nounced his intention of selling it to

became public group of Boston and
Cambridge men decided to try to keep

! bought the books for $500, investing
the balance of the fund in a book
