VII., whose name it bears, to George 11. have been interred here. In the north aisle lie Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth; and a white marble sarcophagus is supposed to contain the remains of the Princes murdered in the Tower. Other than Royal celebrities are also associated with it. The duet of Addison lies here • also that of Addison's friend and patron, the Earl of Halifax, and the Duke of CumberLnds the hero of Culloden. The grave of Dean Stanley lies in what is ImoWn as the Montpensier Chapel—a niche or recess on the north-eastern side of the chapel, the spot where Lady Augusta Stanley was buried five years ago. It is an ordinary earth grave, there being no vault at this place, and while it was being dug the 'coffin containing the remains of Lady Augusta Stanley was uncovered. Dean Stanley's coffin rests upon hers. The restricted space in Henry Vll.'s Chapel rendered it impossible for all the company to approach the grave while the last offices were being performed. Only the mourners were grouped near it, but all were • able to join in the spirit of the moving siords which Dr. Croft has clothed with music—" Man that is born of woman bath but a short time to live," and to feel the force of the solemn dedlaration of "dust to dust "as the body was lo*ered into its narrow bed. Archdeacon Jennings read the prayers at the grave. The Valedictory Mewing was pronounced by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Then the proceesion regained the nave, and the company slowly dispersed, while the organ poured forth the notes. of Handel's singularly beautiful anthem, now wailing, now joyous, •H. is body is buried in peace, but his name liveth evermore." The service occupied altogether an hour and a half. After the mourners had dispersed the public were" admitted to view the grave, where the remains ot Dean Stanley were left to mingle with the sacred dust of the Abbey.  Cardinal  The grave, in which the remains of the late Dean Stanley are interred, was kept open until seven o'clock on Tuesday evening, and thousands of persons visited Westminster Abbey for the purpose of taking a lest look at it, several floral tributes being also p4teed beside it.  Mr. G. Shaw-fefevre, M.P., Her Majesty's First Commissioner of Works, in distributing the prises at. the Reading school on Monday afternoon said he regretted his presence there that day only because it prevented his being able to pay a last tribute of respect to one of his oldest friencls, who was being laid to his rest in Westminster Abbey. Three weeks ago—the day, he believed, before the Dean was taken ill—he had met him by appointment in Westminster Abbey for the purpose of determining the site for the monument to Lord Beaconsfield. The Dean was then full of life, and took great interest in the subject they had in hand. He need hardly tell them that the late Dean was one of the best loved men in this country—large hearted and of Intrepid courage... His mind was always open to fresh ideas' and he was entirely free from prejudice. A better model could not be held out for them to follow. The late Dean had done much to raise the tone of public school life In England, and therefore school bOys owed him a deep' debt of gratitude.
