As you know the real reason the
span of life has been lengthened is
because the lives of babies and
young children are now being saved,
so that where formerly as many as

during their first year, now less than

Stone Of Soone
(Montreal Gazette)
How many visitors to Westmin-
ister Abbey. impacting the many
interesting features of that sacred
building. realiae when they look at
the Coronation Chair that in it is
an object of peculiar interest?
asks the Sunday Referee. London.
Peculiar, because it embodies
-stone, history and IIIYBWFY- !°1‘
underneath the seat of the Coro-
nation Chair is the Stone of
Scone. About this object there is
mystery as to its exact origin.
One story identifies this stone
with the one upon which Jacob
laid his tired head at Bethel when
.he was a fugitive from his broth-
el-‘s wrath and dreamed of the
ladder set up from earth to Hea-
ven. When he awoke, he said,
"Truly, God is inthis place,” and
used the stone as an altar to ren-
der sacrifice to God.
After that he carried the stone
with him in his wanderings and
it passed down through the ages
as his descendants grew into a.
mighty nation. Upon it. or stand-
ing beside it with a hand resting
upon lt, the Hebrew kings are said
to have been crowned. When the
Babylonian captivity carried them
away into a foreign land the stone
,is supposed to have gona with
ithem in the care of the prophet
Jeremiah.
Later on Jeremiah, who had so-
cured the good graces of the
Klng's_daught.er, escaped with her
from Babyionia and they took
with them the sacred stone of tho
Hebrews, wandering from place
to place throughout Southern Eu-
rope.
There is said to be an ancient
appearance there of a strange for
eign princess, accompanied by a.
mysterious man a prophet, it is

end in consequence."

and found its present resting
place under the Coronation Chair
in which Kings and Queens of
England are crowned.
' The Scots could not reconcile
tions, to encompass its retum
when the Treaty of Northampton,
which closed the long war between
Engand and Scotland. required
the restoration of the lost relics
to Scotland. Edward III. of Eng-
land directed the Abbot of West-
minister, who had the stone, to
give it to the Sheriffs of London,
who would see that it and the oth-
er articles under the Treaty were
isafely restored.
Other articles, including even
"The Black Rood," which was tbo
sacred cross of Holyrood were sent
buck to scotland. but the people
of London (which probably meant
the Abbot of Westmlnister) abso-
ilutely refused to permit the Scone
iSbone to leave its new home.
Thirty years later David II. be-
`_| gan negotiations afresh with Ed-
ward III.. which entailed that the
isvohe should he delivered to scot-
land, but nothing materialized and
the Scone Stone remained in
Westminster Abbey, and has been
there ever since.
Both Addison and Goldsmith
refer to this stone as Jacob's Pil-
low. and the fact that the chair is
scratched over from top to bottom
having served Jacob as a. pillow
has been confused with the stone
which served a similar purpose
for Bt. Columba. In this connec-
tion ii; is interesting to observe
that St. Columbo is also reputed
to have dreamed the dream of ri
vision of angels passing from Hea-
ven to earth, identical with that
of Jacob.
In 1865, at the request of the
`Dean of Westminster, o. certain
Professor A. C. Ramsey, Fellow of
the Royal Society and Director of
the Geological Survey of England,
examined the Coronation Stone in
the Abbey and wrote the following
remarks:
“The Coronation Stone consists
'stone with a few embedded peb
| bles. One of these is of quartz, and
itwo others of dark material, the
nature of which I was unable to
much in far transported matters
of stone, especially when the hig.
tory of the matters is somewhat
vague in its earlier stages. The
country aroimd Scone is formed of
old red sandstone and it is quite
possible that the Coronation Stone
may have been derived from one
of its strata.”
