Where Gen. Gr»ut oie<i.
While at Mount McGregor 1 visited
the Grant cottage. It is lh the same

d there ia ft tall, fine looking soldier in
iform who sleeps in the cottage and
Mites care of the relics. There arc.
average, about 2-1.000 visitors a year
now. and many pathetic incidents occur.
Nearly every one that comes wants to
tajee away some memento of the place,
and many pick up tho gravel of the walk
around tho house, supposing that they
are carrying jrant off stones trodden by the
foot of C
The truth Is that this gravel has to be
renewed every month on account of
thaw relic hunters, and the stones they
carry away have never seen Grant. Mr
Arkell, who owns the mountain, tells
m « he was offered faiYODO for the cot
tage. and that the men who offcreii this
were western men, w ho said they wanted
to cut up the cottage ami sell it for relics.
The probability is that they would have
taken it to pieces, have carried it off to
Chicago and shown it there at the expo
sition. in the same way that Libby prison
is to l>o shown.—Cor. Cincinnati Tinuw
