Seventeen thousand dollars was paid by Lord Mlchelham (Sir Her bert Stern) at last week's auction sale at Christie's for the relic known as the "Essex Ring," which was given to the Earl of Essex by Queen Elizabeth as a token of her regard, and which, according to tradition, was to be returned to the Queen if her friend wore Imperiled and was to insure Ills protection. When the Earl was condemned to death, so the story goes, he in trusted the ring, for its return to the Queen, to the Countess of Not tingham, who, however, Influenced by enemies of the Earl, failed to ex ecute her mission. Elizabeth, of fended at not receiving a plea for mercy from the Earl, permitted him to suffer the penalty of death. The ring has since been In the possession of descendants of the Earl of Essex, and was sold by the executors of the late Lord John Thynne. The story that Essex when in fa vor received a gold ring from Queen Elizabeth, with a promise that she would pardon him any offense If he sent it to her when In danger, and that just before his execution he forwarded It to the Countess of Not tingham, who did not deliver it, is said by S. L. Lee, in his sketch of Essex in tho Dictionary of National Biography, to be "quite apocryphal'" Masslngham, the diarist, is the oniy contemporary writer who re fers to a ring when noticing Essex's lelntions with Elizabeth, and he only says that the Queen wore until her death a ring given to her by Essex. Clarendon, writing after 1C41, men tions a rumor about a ring sent by Kssex to Elizabeth before his death, but calls it "a loose report." The ring was In the possession of Lord John Thynne at Hawnes, Bed fordshire, and is said to have de scended to him through Essex's daughter, Frances, but It Is said that other rings of which the same story is told exist. The Rev. Dr. Augustus Jessopp in Ills sketch of Elizabeth, says: "The story of the ring which Es sex Is said to have sent to the Queen after his condemnation Is another of those Idle nnd mis chievous inventions which have been very widely circulated among the credulous and been repeated by historians." CELEBRATE S DAIS (Continued From Page One) to have It discontinued; and further he says that from his knowledge of the status of the Grand Army Posts throughout the country, and their observance of Memorial Day, there is no place In the country where the people sustain the Grand Army as liberally, as cheerfully, and with as much Interest as they do In Hones dale; and that the hard times here have no apparent effect on the con tributions of our citizens to the Post for this purpose.
