THE lUS , LtR OF ROMP SUNDAY JUNE 14 1896
SEEN AND HEARD
Ik MANY PLACES
What the St. Louis Convention
will do is a matter of doubt, though
all political conditions trend Io
the lection of McKinley as ibe
R publican noijjin e. Yet there arc
a lew who still believe that there
is no condition of political allaiis
which can eliminate consideration
of tie candidacy of our former
President, Benjamin Harrison.
There is a story hack oftliecan
dtcia.y of his t»iher, John Scott
Harrison. Hh was a lift e above
be average height and slender nd
almost gaunt in appearance. As
ihe son of “old Tippecacot” he
was a noted man in Onio, hi, d he
once represented the Second Ohio
District iu Congress, and his name
was mentioned in 1856 as a cai -
didate for the Presidency in the
couv- utiou of the American party,
which eventually placed Bell and
verett in the field. Mr. Harrison
w s not a natural politician how
ever.
He loved qiret and seclusion
more than he did tumoil aud strife
•nd he passed most of his days on
the little farm at North Bend,
Ohio, which had been bequeathed
him by hife father, who was the
ninth President of the Uni ed
States. So modest was he in his
ways that the la. t days of his life
were passed in semi-obscurity, and
when the papers of Cincinnati an
nounced his death many weie the
regrets expressed that he had been
permitted to pass away without
greater public and official honors
and emoluments than had been
accorded him. His funeral oration
was delivered by the Rev. Horace
Bushnell, the blind Presbyterian
minister, and it was a memorable
and eloquent tribute to the merits
of the worthy dead.
President Harrison was intered
in a little brick tomb, about two
thirds the size of Grant’s, on the
side of a knoll overlooking the
North Bend of the Ohio River,
about eighteen miles below the
c ty of Cii cinati, within plain vi n w
of the famous old log cabin which
was so conspicuous a feature of
the eve-meme rable “hard cider”
campaign of 1840, and near the
tomb the grave of his honored son
wns dug.
'* *
*
Mr. Harrison’s fttal malady
was a puzzle to his physicians,
who asked his family physician to
make an autopsy on Jhia remains,
but the request wa* denied. Medi
cs’ science, thus baffled, determin
ed to ascertain by foul means
what it could not by 7 fair. Cincin
nati contains a number of medical
colleges, and twenty years ago its
grave-robbers were not only among
the most enterprising and daring
in the land, hut the most unscru
pulous as well.
They had been tutored by one
Cunningham, “old Cunny,” he
was called, and the criminal re
cords of the city show tha r they
did not hesitate at murder when
“subjects” were seaice and hard
to get by what they considered
“legitimate” means. They were
particularly active about this
time, and the Harrison family,
fearing their depredations, had the
new grave dug double depth and
lined with brick.
\\ hen the coffin containing the
remains was lowered into it, a
heavy slab of s v one, requiring the
united efforts of several strong
men to handle, was la.d on t >p of
the casket. Then cement to the
depth ot several feet was poured in
on top of lhe slab, as er which the
earth was rounded over it like an

in addition to the cemetery guard,
two extra watchers were hired,
each of them being required to do
twelve hours a day guard duty at
the grave, and the int- ntion was
to keep up this care tor thirty 7

l withstanding all these pre
’.aut'one. the ground hud hardly
settled <n the grave before the
watcher, who certainly had been
diieiict, f< ui. dme morning that
lliegiave of a man named August
Devins, not half a dezen ya’ds
from that of .Mr. Harrison, had
been rifled during 'he night. Mr.
Devins had been a friend of John
HarrisjD, the b.other of the ex-
Pre.j lent, and also of George Ea
ton, a grandson of John Soott Har
rieoii.
The first train from the city
brought the morning newepaperp,
containing a paragiaph Stating
that the nizht previous a buggy
had been driven through the alley
between P ne and Race and Long
w r’h and Sixth streets, and that

College, which face <n Sx'h St.

tor Harrison at Indianapolis and
the 'o'lowing day, May 30, 1878,
he met them in Cincinnati Having
quietly obtained the neceeearv
search warren', Mr John Hairi
-ou aud bis companions, having
with them Colonel Tom Suetba
ker, one of the most determined
men that ever lived, and Consta
bles Walter Li cy and Cullen, pro
ceeded to the Ohio Med ical College.
They were not very cordially re
ceive by its janitor, one Marshall’
though he professed to be willing
that they shou d make a search,
he, under pretense of summoning
some of the college officials, man
aged to slip away for several min
utes. The party searched all over
the college for Mr. Devins’ re
mains. They closely inspected the
horrors of the dissecting room.
Suddenly 7 Mr. Harrison grew
pale. The cloth dropped from his
nerveless hand. “It’s lather,” he
gasped, ami he sank almost un
conscious into the arms ot one of
his attendants. It vas true. Des
pite all the precau ions that had
been taken to preserve the body
of his father from the sacrilegious
hands of the grave robbing ghoul ,
they had obtained possession of it ,
and but for their gre< d in also rob
bing Devins’ grave, no doubt the
son of one of our American Presi
dents and the father of another
would have become the victim of
the sacrificial knife of science.

As soon hr Mr. Harrison r> c >v

after his ghaaty find his brother,
