New York diocese
: guardian of old Graces whose income,
ft was estimated, was greater than
that of any man in the cloth and whose
power in society was even more feared
: than that of any bishop.
He received his appointment as sex
ton from the Rev. Dr. Thomas House
Taylor, and, while Dr. Taylor has been
long forgotten, Sexton Brown is still
almost as much remembered in the
great city as Jim Fisk, A. T. Stewart or
Charles Delmonico. *
Brown would cultivate the acquaint
ance of head waiters and cooks, secur
ing the latest information as to the
social plans of their masters and mis
tresses,, and whenever he learned that
a party or a ball was under considera
tion he would offer his services to de
liver the invitations or look after the
comfort of the guests or superintend
their arrival and departure in their
carriages. Beginning in this humble
way, it was not long before he gained
the good will of distinguished patrons.
His authoritative manner, too, was
w admirable'for such occasions. Indeed
the host himself could, hardly issue a
command to his menials with the
suavely peremptory emphasis which
Brown employed. Such was his de
portment and such his trustworthy
seal that It was. said that no one in
Grace church could be properly feasted
- or burled or could even say his prayers
without the assistance of Brown, and
eventually it became something like a
dictum in a large portion of society
that nobody could be married in New
York in truly first class style unless
Brown's presence blessed the bridal
party.
Nor did any detail that might be
wanting for the personal comfort of
the congregation escape his vigilant
eye. It was a habit of old Peter Stuy-
vesant, fpr example, to keep in his pew
a thermometer. As soon as he had tak
en his seat he would consult it. One
winter morning when the temperature
was extremely low the furnaces of the
church got out of order, and Brown’s
assistants were able to force through
them only enough heat to lessen the
chill a little. It occurred to Brown that
the condition of the atmosphere would
not be conducive to either the piety or
the comfort of the aged Stnyvesant
When the old gentleman arrived with
in the porch of the church, he was
shivering with the cold, but without
attracting his attention Brown, who
knew that the first .thing he would do
would bes, to’ step into his pew and ex
amine the thermometer, slipped in
ahead, pressed one of his fat fingers to
the little glass bulb and chuckled as he
saw Jhe mercury ascend to 72. When
Stuyvesant reached the pew, he con
sulted the thermometer as usual, look
ed around wonderingly, but evidently
concluded that the church must be
warm enough and that therefore it
must be himself who was- cold.
Brown's funeral was marked by
much of the pomp and circumstance
which he himself had so often provided
for the rich and the great. The wits
said that it was the first in forty years
that had been a perfectly correct per
formance without his Individual guid
ance. He bad died in the little town of
Brandford one August night in V&O.
There he bad been in the habit of tak
ing his summer rest. He had been
overcome by the heat while attending
a wedding at Brandford. and that sum
mer he complained, probably for the
first time in his life, of 111 health. One
of his orders was that his body should
* be placed in a casket of polished Span
ish cedar.
— A more ponderous casket had never
been carried up the aisle of Grace
" church. It was rich with silver and
velvet. It was so heavy—its interior
bring large enough for two t ordinary
corpses—that the eight Knigkts Tem
plars who bore it into the church al
most staggered with their burden.
TJpon It lay their cocked hats with wav
ing ostrich plumes, Within the chancel
stood four of the clergy, in the pews
. were the representatlves of somegof the
proudest families of the city, and a
long line of men and women filed into
the church showing all the signs of sor
row for an old friend and neighbor.

What Grant Saw In Canada.
Lord Dufferin when viceroy of Cana
da, paid a visit to. Washington while
General Grant was president. He cas
ually asked the president whether he
had ever been in Canada.
The reply was a striking example of
General Grant’s brusque outspoken
ness, “No; I have never set foot on Ca
nadian soil, but I have approached
near enough to its shores in a steam
boat to see the grass growing in the
streets of the Canadian towns." V
Lord Dufferin saw that General
Grant shared with many of his coun
trymen at that time a common misap
prehension in regard to the resources
and destinies of Canada. — London
