as the "Lady of the Casket." died at

Mr 11, iller, according to the story
told by oneW of her nieces, was born in
lEngland , although she herself said she
was born in the \Vest IndicA.
She was the wife of )r 11iller, who
was known throughout the country as
the maker of a patent muedicine sold
frotu the main otlice in Bioston. I-or
years they were engagcd in the busi
no-s without, attracting partaenlar at
tention, when they moved to Wihing
tan, a suburban cit y, twent" miles out
side of l o:ton . At that timo they had
about $i50 0i0. She hersel f has told
of her amitionlsi at that. time.
" W" alwavs lived very frugady,"
She said. -" or several years it was
the ambition of our I ives to get a mil
lion doll ar Wlen we had that all
itiu two miIlionis; loomed up em c.

and four and live illimons led us on. if
there be such a thing a-; luck, then

thuiebeo turne-d to gold in our handiIs.
"Ch Id ren were born to us, but theny

vigorous, our little ones pined away
and died in early life ; so of the tv enty
three darlings I have had, fou rteen of
whom were tw ins, not one is alive to
day to give joy to my heart and aLdd
sunshine to my home, it was (hod'
will ; let His will he done.''
It was beause they were ch ild less
that in~ 18S- Mrs. hillier began to think
of urecting the mauisoleums ani build
ing the easkets, wich sinej maide her
famous. She has ah-o told this story
in her own words:
"Seeing- we were not likely to have
olfspring to perp)etuate our name and
fortune, I spoke to my h nsband about
being buried in costly caskets and pro
served Lunder a latinug miausl~eumi. Hie
* told me to carry out any ideca l might

T1hen I paid $1 ,500I for wood from the
cedars of l~ebanon, only to d iscardta,
Later I puLrchased teak andi red cedar
at a big price, to he further d $iappol it
ed. At last I sent to the far South,
and after i nfinite pai ns p ~ne-ure C .r ahog-i
any planks eniogh t)o uldi the sarceo

doulble locked to pre vent grave robbrsm
'frorn entering. The knouxers on
the doors were oif gold and worth a
fortune in themiselvyes, and on the
collins were gold redallions said to be
worth $500 each.
Mrs. Hillecr also specially designed
her grave clothes. 11er robe was madue
of costly corded silk decked with 500
yards of hand-made silk lace, In quad
ruple rows up and down the front of
- the robe were over 5.000 lenglish
daisies embroidered by skille~d artists
of france. On t' e sidecs are panels of
-ourah white silk. Thme robe ia fastened
by nearly 500 silvei books deslvned by
Mrs. Hliller. T1he cost mof the outer'
robe was saidl at the LimlO to have been
'20,000 and with it wont undurgar
mIents costing $5,000.
Dr. 11i11er die:1 on November 11,
h688, and 'vas placed in his $50.000
collin. As the mausoLieum was not then
eompleted the body was placed in a
temporary tomb) unitil its final resting
pliace was ready to receive it.
To the citens of the town Mrs.
Hi111er was a constant source of woii
dor. There and in the nearby towns
she was called " the lady of the cas
kets,"' and her oddi11ties were on e vutry
tongue. One of her eccentritio~s was
to lead the plekerS to her erasnberr~y
hogs attdred In black silik and weainL
dIlamonds. Among ot~her ornamentsi
was a necklace worth $20,000t.
I'arly in 18913 Mirs. iider agzain he
came the bsubjeet Lof universal notdeo on

was about to marry heri coach man, a
