Toronto, Can.—Archdeacon Boddv,
for forty years the rector of St.
Peter's church, had so little regard for
file value of money that In used bank
notes lor book-marks, and this habit
caused Ids heirs at law a whole lot of
worry they might have I*«•» n spared had
tli«* good rector kept his little fortune
iu tin* savings hank.
Archdeacon Buddy died 13 years ago.
After the funeral l»is relatives made a
search to unearth Ids hank-hooks, for
it was known that he possessed sav
ing''. But search revealed no sign of a
; fortune. There was nothin# In the
house, so far as could he seen, save j
the scanty furniture and a library of
,’t.lHHI hooks.
The relatives of the dead clergyman
had decided that he left no cash at all,
Used Bank Notes for Bookmarks.
•iml so the matter stood for 12 years,
or until a few weeks ago, when the ex
ecutors made a strange discovery.
In cataloguing the Buddy library,
preparatory to selling It, they found a
<10 hill tucked between the leaves of
a volume of drawings. In another hook,
i hill wan found similarly employed
as u hook-mark. A systematic search
followed and every hook in the collec
tion was examined. When the task
was finished there had been recovered
$1)50 in cash and $1,150 In hank
checks. All the latter arc worthless
, now, many of those who signed them
having died years ago.
j The archdeacon was absent-minded.
| It is thought that when he received a
' special fee for weddings or extra serv
1 he. he slipped It into a hook, and
i promptly forgot all about It.
