A COINCIDENCE.

[TO TIM EDITOR OF TUX "SPECTATOR."] Sin,—This week, on Maundy Thursday, March 30th, I buried in Adisham Churchyard, one Ann Rye, who formerly resided here. She went to live at the adjoining village of Wingham, and was brought here for burial. On Maundy Thursday, March 30th, 1893, I buried here another Ann Rye, no relation to the above-named, who was also once a resident in Adisham, went to live at Wingham, and was brought back to be buried here. So curious a coincidence seems to be worth recording.
