The great fire of London, 1668, de- stroyed this beautiful St. Paul, the Gothic, cross-church of London, and, incidentally, made the ancient pre- reformation Renedictine abbey at Westminster from that time on real national shrine and mausoleum as old St. Paul had been until its destruction.

And to the keen observers these historic cathedrals confide something of the idlosyncrasies of certain important citizens, maybe of the curlous whims and naughty fan- cles of some of its architects. Often they have immortalized some of the queerest ideas and incongruous no- tions of otherwise obscure sculptors, masons or craftsmen.
