The general quality of early de-

of leaf and primings lower.

NOETS have written millions of
words on the theme of undying
love. Lucy HaTtigan wasn't
poet, but she knew such love. Her
friends believe that she died rather
than see the end of her life's great
romance.
Lucy was an Englishwoman and
the widow of Col. Arthur Hartigan
when the strange climax of their love
story came under circumstances
which the whole countryside around
Blackheath is still talking about.
She had loved Hartigan since he
was a dashing young subaltern, about
to leave for India in Queen Vic
torias service. Lucy didn't marry
him then. But her sister, Evange-
line, did.
Lucy's turn came 35 years later
after Evangeline's death. And the
man she married then was a cripple
invalided out of the Army.
For 1S years theirs was an idyllic
love During the day they occupied
themselves in the garden. At night
there was formal dinner They sat
at opposite ends of the big refectory
table, set with cleaning silver and
china, while a maid served in frilled
cap and apron. Afterward, Arthur
escorted Lucy to the drawing room
