"infant" 111111111; a journey which the

But the future giant of manic would

object of wonder and conversation
throughout the palace. untl all this was!
intensifier! when he seemed an 1111111 11111-

organ within the hearing of the duke.
Such 11 throb started from that chapel 1'
organ when little Handel's tciidrilcd '
lingers chose the keys, and the soul of
the duke was touched as it never had
been tout-hrd before—truly a moineug
tons occurrence, since but for it llan-
dol'e sacred music might never have
been written.
The dnke'o attention having been ar-
rested, ho inquired of Dr. Handel (:Hll'
