Within the priory lived John Cover,
friend and perhaps master Of Chaucer,
while it was from Tabbard Inn, nearby
that the Pilgrims set out for Canter-
bury. This Cover was q generous pa
iron Of the church and helped in the
restoration OF the nave during the time
OF Richard III. He married within the
precincts Of the monastery In 1897 and
was buried there in the chantry IL years
later. Three slabs in the choir pave

speare, brother of the poet, Is buried
here.

that John Harvard, founder Of the uni
versity which bears his name, was bap-
tiled here In the year 1907. His connec-'
ton with the cathedral was discovered

OF this tact j. H. Choate, then Ambassa-
dor to Great Britain, presented the

PARTIAL ECLIPSE
 0F SUN SEEN HERE
Noticeable Diminishing Of Light
 and Heat Effect Here

Perfect atmospherical conditions made possible an unobstructed view Of the partial eclipse of the sun yesterday afternoon, thousands in this city observing the phenomenon through smoked glass, old photo- graph film and other devices.
 Beginning shortly after 3 o'clock. the big air circus lasted for more than two hours. At 4:So o'clock, the sun had become only a crescent, the shadow of the moon covering the golden orb to the extent Of 54 per cent. Eminences and open fields held their contingents of watchers who saw the moon partly blot out the sun. The earth had the appearance of the usual pre-evening hour while Sol went into partial obscurance and an increased chill in the air was noted.
