said "was tho most remarkable doc
ument that over camo Into His posses

ment tho last will, and tostimont of
Charles Lounsbury, who died in tho
Cook County asylum at Dunning, 111.,
wore not disposed to dlsagrco with
him. Horo it Is:
"I, Charles Lounsbury, boing of
sound mind and disposing memory, do
horeby publish this, my last will
and testament, in ordor as Justly as
may bo, to distributo my interest in
tho world among succeeding mon.
"Tho part of my intorcst is known
In law and recognized in tho sheep
bound volumes as my property, bo
ing lnconsiderablo and of no account,
I make no disposal of In this, my
last will.
"My right to llyo, boing but a life
estato is not 'at my disposal; but,
theso things excoptcd, nil olso In tho
world I now proceed to dovlso and
bequeath.
"(Item) I glvo to tho good fathers
and mothers, In trust for tholr child
ren, all good llttlo words of praise
and encouragement and all quaint pet
names and endearments, and I chargo
said parent's to use them justly and
gonorously as tho needs of their
children may roqulro.
" (Item) I lcavo to children ex
clusively, but for tho torm of their
childhood, all and ovory flowor of
tho fiolds, and tho blossoms of the
woods, with tho right to play among
them freely according to tho custom
of children, warning them at the samo
timo against thistles and thorns. And
I devise to children tho banks of the
brooks and tho golden sands beneath
and waters thereof, and tho odor of
the willows that dip therein; and tho
white clouds that float high over the
giant trees. And I leave tho childrqu
long, long days in which to bo merry
in a thousand ways; and tho night;
and the moon; and tho train of the
Milky Way to wonder nt, but sub
ject," nevertheless, to tho rights here
inafter given to lovers.
"(Item) I devise to boys jointly
tho use of tho Idle fields and com
mons whoro ball may bo played; all
pleasant waters where ono ' may
swim; all snow-clad hills whore quo
may coast; and all streams and
ponds, whero ono may fish, or whoro,
when grim winters come, ono may
skate; to have and to hold the samo
for tho poriod of their boyhood. And
all moadows, with tho clovor blos
Boms and tho butterflies thereof; tho
woods and their appurtenances, the
squirrels and birds, tho echoes of
strango noises and all distant places
which may bo visited, together with
tho adventures there found. And I
give to said boys each his own placa
at tho fireside nt night with all pic
tures that may bo In tho burning
wood, to enjoy without lot or hind
rance and without Incumbrance or
laro.
"Item) To lovers, I devise their
imaginary world, with whatever thoy
may need as to tho stars of tho sky,
tho red roses by tho wall, the bloom
of the hawthorn, tho sweet strains of
music, and aught olso by wttilch they
may desiro to figure to each othor
tho lastlngnoss and beauty of their
lovo.
"(Item) To young mon, jointly, I
doviso and bequeath all boisterous in
spiring sports or rivalry, and glvo to
them tho disdain of weakness and un
daunted confidence In their own
strength, .though thoy nro rude. I
glvo them tho power to make lasting
friendships, and of possessing com
panions; and to thom exclusively 1
glvo all merry songs and bravo
choruses to sing .with lusty voices.
"(Itom) And to thoso who aro no
longor children or youths or lovers,
I lcavo memory, and I bequeath to
thom tho volumes of the poems ot
Burns and Shakespeare, and of othor
poets If thoro bo othora to tho end
that thoy may llvo over tho old days
again freely and fully, without tithe
or diminution.
"ytom) To our lovod ones with
snowy crowns I boqucath tho hnppl
noss of old ago tho lovo and grltltuda
of their children, until thoy fall
