The Eari of Mount Edgcunihe, l_who has just been sworn of the privy council, may -he literally said to owe his exeistence and his position "to the acident of an accident " An ancestress of his had the ill luck to he buried while she was in a trance. But by good luck some of her jewels were buried with her. A dependent, intended to rifle the dead lingers, visited the tomb and became the j unwitting liberator of the imprisoned lady. She returned to life and four years later gave birth to a son, who was a progenitor of the present peer. That, i at any rate, is the local legend down in Devonshire, where Mount Edgecombe stands, green and wooded, opposite to Devonshire ? a spot on which the admiralty keeps always an envious eye. This recalls the case of Ebenezer Erskine, one of the founders of the United Presbyterian church ..f CJ 1 ? ?L ' wi ouiiiiuiii, wuo whs iMirn artel* the burial of his mother. Mrs. Erskine was buried in a trance, and on one of her tinkers was a valuable ring. The gravedigger knew of this, opened the coflin and was in the act of cutting off the ring-bearing finger when Mrs. Erskine awoke with a cry. She rose, walked home and went upstaii s without having encountered any of her family. The footsteps overhead caused her husband to remark: "If I didna ken my wife was lyin' in the kirkyaird I wad say that wis her fitstep." Mrs. Erskine lived to become the mother of Ebenezer. 1 Accidentally Killed Himself. i f Special to The State. 1 Laurens, Sept, 3. ? KinnieOvv- 1 ings, 17 years old, and a son of .> Mr. J. F.
