WOST BEAUTIFUL WILL EVER DRAWN Chicago Pauper Leaves Remark- able Document In the pockets of an old ragged | eoat belonging to one of the patients of the Chicago poor house there was found after the patient's death a will The man had been a lawyer, and the will was written in a firm, elear | Band on a few scraps of paper, So unusual was it that it was sent to & lawyer, and he read it before the | Chicago Bar association, and a reso. lution was passed ordering it probats ed. And now it is on the records of Cook county, 1llinois The will reads as follows “I, Charles Loundsberry being of) sound and disposing mind and mem- ory, do hereby make and publish this, my last wi§ and testament, in order, as justly as may be, to distri bute my Interest in the world among succeeding men “That part of my interest which is known in law and recognized 1 sheep-bound volumes as my proy being Inconsiderable and of non-ac count, I no disposition of, in this, my will, My right to live being but a !ife estate, s not at my disposal, but these things excepted, all else in the world I now proceed to devise and bequeath, “Item, T give to good fathers and mothers, in trust for their children, all good little words of praise and en- couragement, and all quaint pet names and endearments, and I charge sald parents to use them justly, but gen- erously, as the needs of their chil- dren shall require, “Item. I leave to children inclu- sively, but only for the term of child- hood, all and every flower of the flelds and blossoms of the woods with the right to play among them freely, according to the customs of children, warning them at the same time against thistles and thorns. And, 1 devise to children the banks of the brooks and the golden sands beneath the waters thereof, and odors of the willows that dip therein, and the white clouds that float high over the giant trees, “And I leave to the children the long, long days to be merry in, in a thousand ways, and the night and the train of the Milky Way to wonder at, but subject nevertheless, to the rights | hereinafter given to lovers. “Item. I devise to boys, jointly, all the useful, idle fields and commons where ball may be played, all pleas- ant waters where one may swim, all snow-clad hills where one may coast and all streams and ponds where one may fish, or where, when grim win- ter comes, one may skate, to hold the same for the period of their boyhood. And all meadows with the clover blossoms and butterflies thereon; the woods with their appurtenances, the | squirrels and the birds and echoes and | strange noises, and all distant places | which may be visited, together with the adventures there found. And 1} give to said boys each his own place at the fireside at night with all pic- tures that may be seen in the burn- ing wood, to enjoy without let or hin- drance or without any incumbrance of care. | “Item. To lovers T devise their im- | aginary world, with whatever they may need, as the stars of the sky, the red roses by the wall, the bloom of the hawthorn, the sweet strains of music, and aught else they may de- | sire to figure to each other the last. | ingness and beauty of their love. “Item. To young men, jointly, 1 devise and hequeath all boisterous, inspiring sport of rivalry, and I give to them the disdain of weakness and | undaunted confidence in their own strength. Though they are rude, 1/ leave to them the power to make last- | ing friendship and of possessing com- | panions, and to them exclusively 1| give all merry songs and grave chor- ! uses to sing with husky voices. | “Item. And to those who are no longer children or youth, or lovers, 1 leave memory and bequeath to them | the columns of the poems of Burns| and Shakespeare and of other poets, | it there be others, to the end thas they may live the old days over again, | freely and fully, without tithe or| diminution. “Item. To our loved ones with/ snow crown I bequeath the happiness of old age, the love and gratitude of thelr children until they fall aslecp.” ‘—Exchange.
