The theory that great villains cannot be punished by ordinary means but must wander the earth in torment and remorse, is age-old. The myth cf the wandering Jew has been extremely popular and as late as 1830 he w-as “seen" in London. Always there have been credulous folk to seize upon any pretext for doubting the story of a great hero’s or villain’s death. The United States government, for political reasons, did secrete Booth’s body for months, and this was excuse enough for the amusing fol-de-rol which has entertained historians for two-thirds of a cen
tury.
The home and table decorations were in keeping with the Yuletide ■-pason and the favors were quaint i Inrie Santa Clames, made by their little daughter Julia fashioned from ted apples, raisins, marshmallows, t, thpicks and cotton Follow ng the dinner the evening was spent in playing bridge.
