1 'Tis a Good Omen.
. There Is one curious coronation" coinci
dence whloh should not .; pass without
bote. Of all the Edwards' that have sat
On the English throne, not a single one
has : been ; crowned with his Queen ; in
Westminster Abbey effice Edward I. and
Eleanor were ?crowned- thr toaether.
Moreover, that coronation was tb first
that took place In th present abbey.
Edward il. had no QUecu when he was
crowned: Edward HI. , Was a ,boy at tha
time; Edward IV was unmarried and Ed
ward V, was never crowned at all. Ed
Ward VI, was crowned when h Was but
10 year of age. Bo the only precedent
is of. good omen; for Eleanor was the
most devoted Wife that ever was Queen.
