Distinguished People Assembled at St Paul's Cathedral to Particip {London, April 20—Many distinguish- ed. people forgot the stress of war for at least an hour the other day to re- pair to St. Paui's cathedral to pay tribute to the memory of an American adtist, Edwin Au Abbey, who, through his work, has been more or leSs closely ldentified with the artistic side of English life. The gathering was headed by the American ambassador, ' Walter Hines Page, and the Princess Louise, Duch- sss of Argyll. It assembled in the artists’ corner of the crypt, where are ihe graves of Turner and many more Jistinguished artists, and unveiled a tablet to the memory of Abbey. It Jras here that Abbey used to visit. Ambassador Page delivered the prin- sipal speech, sketching Abbey’s career from his birthplace, Philadelphia. “Mr. Abbey's grandfather,” said Mr. phia, amused himself with his penci Page, “who was a merchant in Phila- Selphiia, amused himself with his pen- sk and rush. and his father, also a merchant, cuitivated the same talent. Dnce when Mr. Abbey was asked how 2e.got the commission for painting the soronation of King Edward, he is said ‘o have answered: ‘Through my grand- e e The ambassador said that Mr. Abbey -— 2} '§ HERPICIDE ifil7 & does not change the color 2 | 1 spent 20 York ~publishin ame to E a he [5 to the comtrary, the great project of illustrating Shakespeare mey date from that first visit to the poet’'s birthplace. From that day for- ward England took him and held him. “Abbey’s work fell into two parts, his illustrative work, beginning vouth with Dick&ns’ Christmas nd including Herrick, Keats, Wordsworth, Goldsmith and = ending with his great illustrations of Shake- speare. He was surely one of the greatest illustrators of his time. It is upon these black and white draw- ings that no doubt most of the ad- mirers of his work think that his most secure fame rests. “The second period of Mr. Abbey’s work was given to mural painting for fhe ennobling and beautifying of Amer- ican public buildings. On this work he was engaged when he died in 1811 at the too early age of 59. With ap- propriateness his decorations of the Boston public library represent scenes from the Quest of the Holy Grail Throughout the United States you will find more reproductions of these pic- tures and of Mr. Sargent’s prophets in the same building that of any other modern paintings. “In happier times, when thousands of Abbey's countrymen resume thelr pilgrimage to their old home, many of them will feel a warmer welcome to this, one of the great sanctuaries of our ‘race. because of its hospitality to him: and they will thank you for placing this tablet here as I thank you now. It is another link in the endless chain that binds all parts of the English-speaking world togather and will forever hold them true to their common high ideals.” Practically _inexhaustible deposits of asphalt, discovered in the Philip- pines two vears ago, will be develop- ed commereially.
