LITERARY WILL
',' Charles Lounsbury,i, a com
paratively unknown Chicago
lawyer of the old school who
died quite some time,, ago, wrote
one of the most beautiful wills' and, the daisies thereof, with the
that has ever been-written, Al-l right to play among them free-
it thnuoh ho haH rin nmniipti nf a IV. according tn tUp custom nt
i L ' monetary value to leave to oth-J children, warning them .at the
make no accouht of in this my
will
"My right to liveit being but
a lire estate is not at my dis
posal, but, 1 these things expect

proceed to devise and bequeath.
Item And first, I give to good
f athers ana Mothers, but jn
trust for their children! never
theless, all good little words ofi
praise and all quaint pet names,,!
and I charge said parents. W ilsf
them justly but generously? as
the needs of their childre' shall
require. '

same time against thistles. And
I devise to children ' the yellow
S literature. No one can read his shores of creeks and the golden
sands beneath the waters there
of, with the dragon flies that
skim the surface of said waters,
and the. odors of the willows
that . dip into the said waters,
and the white clouds that float
high over the giant trees
'And I leave to
loijg,' long days to be merry in
in . a ' thousand ways, and the
;Nignt ana the Moon ana the
train- of the Milky Way to won

to the rights herein after given

ers, he left a legal, document
which appeals to all' lovers of
literature. No one can read his
will without sensing: the esthetic
Ideals of the writer, Pis langu-
age is clear and. beautiful.
That, which follows Is his en
tire wilJ: . . : "
i V "In the name -of God, - amen.
I, Charles Lounsbury,' being of
sound and disposing mind and
' mmeory, do now make and pub
lish this my Last WilL' and Tes-
ltament, in order as justly as I
may, to. distribute ' my Interests
in the world among succeeding
men. - . , i
him th' name of it, jn order
that the child shall always re
member the name of that atari
after he has learned and forgot
ten astronomy, j . i
"Item I devise to boys joint
iy all the useful idle fields ant
Commons .' where ball may he
played, and all snow-clad hills
where ; one may coast, and ' all
streams .and ponds where ' one
may skate to have 'and to hold
the same for the period of their
boyhood.- And all meadows,, with
the .clover . - blooms and butter-i
flies ; thereof; i and all, woods,
with ' their appurtenances of
squirrels and whirring birds and
echoes and strange. noises; and
all distant places which may be
visitedj together with the ad.
ventures there found; I do give
to, ? said boys to be theirs. And
I' give to said boys each his
own place at the, fireside at
night, with all " pictures that
may be seen in , the burning
wood or coal' to enjoy without
let, or hindrance and without
any: incumbrance of cares. .
"Item To lovers I devise, their
imaginary world, with whatever
they may need, as- the stars of
the sky, the red, red roses by
the wall, the snow of the haW-
I thorn, the sweet strains of mu-
children the sc aught -.else, they may de-
sue iu uguic jo eacn ouier uie
lastingness and beauty of their
lOVe.::.''
' . "Itemf-To young jnen, jointly,
being joined in a brave, mad,
crowd, I devise and bequeath
all boisterous, inspiring sports of
rivalry. I give to them the dis
dain of weakness and undaunt
ed conridence m their own
strength. Though they are rude
and rough, 1 leave to them alone
the power of making lasting
friendships ' and ' of possessing
companions; and to them ex
clusively I give all merry songs
and brave choruses to sing,
with , smooth voices to troll
them forth.
"Item And to those who are
no longer .children or youths or
lovers, I leave Memory, and
leave to them the volumes of
the poems of Burns and Shake
speare, and of other ... poets, if
U&iiwenQtittrgjtio.the end. that
they may live the old days over
again freely and fully, without
ti,the or i diminution; ! and to
those who are no longer chiL
dren or youths or lovers I leave,
too, 'the knowledge' of what
rare, are world it is.
