7 { THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1928 TRAFFIC CROWDS STORIED HATFIELD Palace Which Has Seen History in Making Remains Serene London, Sept. 1' --. Hatfield House, Hertfordshire, for three centuries or more the seat of the Ceell Family, deserves to be ac- sounted something more than one of the 'show places' among the reat domains of England. True, ere is a wealth of treasure with- In its walls for the art lover, real pr professed, to gush over. Even pore might the bookworm or one fearned in ancient manuscripts find himself entranced were he able ly to explore the wonders of the brary. But Hatfield House has a ce above these things. It snjoys a noble rather than a lordly elegance. Standing within 20 miles of Charing Cross, the smoke of the ever-spreading environs of the great eity nowadays plays around the borders of its gracious park. The railway which robbed the Great North Road of its traffic nearly a century back, is within a stones throw of the House itself, and now that the railway is unwil- lingly yielding the carriage of men and merchandise again to the road motor ears and motor lorries hoot and roar past the very gates, Hat- tield House, though, garbed in its mellow brick and mullioned case- ments, stands serene among the sturdy oaks and grassy avenues, presenting a picture little different from that which as created by its earliest designers and artificers. Is there another proud house in this country of proud houses which has more association with mighty events and great men of the realm? Elizabeth was at Hatfield when the news was brought her that she was Queen of England. And men and women still in early middle life remember that Hatfield House was the principal abode of the Marquis of Salisbury, three times Prime Minister under Queen Victoria. His son, the present Marquis, is at this moment a member of the Cab- inet as Lord Privy Seal. For three centuries and more the noble ow- ners of Hatfield their heirs and their kinsmen, have served the State in some way. Hard by Hatfield House still stands the remnant of the Palace of Henry the Eighth. (Hatfield was one of the estates of King Hal ap- propriated from the church; it used to belong to the hishops of Ely) Henry, as we all know, was very much of a married man. Probably he found the children were in the way in his kaleidoscopic domestic life. At any rate both Mary and Elizabeth spent a good deal of their early days at Hatfield. BEllza- beth was there when Mary died and when the great officers of State took horse from London to tell her she was Queen. In the Park today there is to be seen the shell | Che new 'NUGGET {in we of a great oak, carefully. filled around with plaster of paris, Tradi- tion has it that Elizabe was seated under this oak when the tid- ing came that the dropsy had at last closed her sister Mary's troubled reign. We may be par- doned for wondering why a young lady of 25---even if she was a Princess with a decided will of her own--was sitting out-of-doors on a blustery November day. If her biographers do not lie she had early betrayed some of the flighti- ness in her affections which brought such a lot of trouble in later years, So that may have had something to do with her not be- ing home when the gentlemen from London called, It is just as soundly established, though, that with all her vagaries Elizabeth had a shrewd head and a high courage, and early had bitter experience of the shifty ways of politics, If the high officers really did discover her under the oak it is quite conceivable that not far away were some stout horses and stout retainers, ready to act with her it the envoys did not hail her peac- ably, However the errand proved a thoroughly loyal one. It was soon after, and in the very Palace of Hatfield that Elizabeth created Cecil, afterwards the great Lord Burleigh her Secretary of State, Thus began a connection be- tween the crown, the family of Ce- cil, and Hatfield House which has remained through every succeeding generation and seems destined to remain for many more, Hatfield House and its estate, though, did not come into the ownership of the Cecils until the next reign. James the First exchanged it with the First Lord Salisbury for Theo- balds House in Essex. Hatfield House, the goodly and becoming mansion which we behold today, was largely the creation of the first Lord Salisbury, attempt an account of all that has happened at Hatfield House in ye- lation to the affairs of this realm, Burleigh, Elizabeths great Minis. ter, guided the fortunes of Eng- land for forty years. 'The third Marquis of Salishury, was three times Queen Victoria's chief advis- er. Many of us remember him big and stolid----not an umfitting per- sonification of the Vietorian era.

Orders which poured into the finan- cial district today by wire and long- distance telephone from hundreds of outlying cities, towns and villages literally jerked the market out of a dull reaction into which is appeared to be slipping, shot industrial stock pric: forward in buoyant fashion and nally put to rout a group of pro- fessional bears who had sold stocks "hand over fist," in the hope that high money rates had choked off the advances permanently. Wall Street is not bearish, but un- til the Western orders, mainly from Chicago, swung the tide about today, the professional traders of the fin. ancial district were hesitant and nerv- ous. With this public buying at their back, and with orders coming to the floor of the exchange in 1,000 to 10,000 share blocks, they jumped en- thusiastically into the battle of dol- ars, As a result the rise in a long list of industrial issues was the widest of the week. Gains ranged from a point or so to as much as 17, and in the list of stocks which have attracted pub- lic speculative favor an advance of five points was common at the close of the day. Only the railway shares were neglected, They were up 11 cents on the day, as measured by the averages of The New York Times. The industrials, however, advanced 2.02, and the combined average of 50 representative stocks, including rail- roads and industrials, was 1.07; the sharpest gain since the last day of August, COMMITS SUICIDE BY HANGING SELF N.S. Man's Action Attribu- ted to Wife Attending Dance Sydney, N. 8S, Sept 1', -- Jean Baptiste Girard, a resident of Birch Grove, committed suicide by hang- ing himself in his home on Satur- day after penning a note attributing his action to the fact that his wife had attended a dance 'with other fellows." Girard came to Bireh Grove from Alberta ten years ago. From evidence adduced by a cor- oner's jury it appears that Girard objected to his wife attending the dapce at the house of one Lecointe at Dominion, but Mrs. Girard went, and in a fit of despondency Girard took his own life, He left a note pinned to the table cloth which read: "I suicide today on 8 of Septem- ber at 11 o'clock at night. My wife she's going to the dance with other fellows. Then I make my testa- ment. I give the whole thing to my little Camille. I love her very well Goodbye. I have little bit of money at the bank, and I have $155 at Alfred Lecointe. My house, every- thing is for little Camille. Good- bye, my little Camille." Camille was an adopted daugh- ter.
