Back to the earliest times when man
erected public or memorial buildings
is said to run the practice of recording
the date so that it remains hidden
from casual view, in an ornament of
inscription, and can only be read by
careful study. . Why the practtca
started it is now Impossible, to say ; it
looks almost like a playfulness on the
part of the first builders, but it has
continued down the uges, and its latest
example occurs in the great peace

Ottawa. Here one reads the inscrip
