The author pelata out that the enterprise answers In a way a question asked by Shakespeare In one of bis plays, when be Inquires as to what e rll endure “against the tooth of time and raznre of oblivion.” “Judith Shakespeare, daughter of W illiam Shakespeare and Anne Hathaw ay, after her marriage to Thomas Quiney, vlnter, lived for j thirty-six years In a house at 1 High ' street, Strstford-on-Avon," says the ¡ article In Concrete. “This house was an Elizabethan dwelling, half-tlm i bered, with overhung eaves and gables and the nsual face of oak and plaster. “Early In the last century an at- tempt was made to ‘restore’ It but the result was very unsatisfactory. It was recently rescued from Its state of conspicuous ugliness by W. H. Smith & Son, book sellers, and the present tenants of the premises. The restoration was carried out with port- : land cement stucco, with remarkably ' pleasing resulta. ‘T h e house of Judith Shakespeare | Is owned by the Stratford-on-Avon cor- 1 porntlon, and forms part of the Guild estate. H a lf of the rent of the build ing goes to the King Edward school, as It did In the days when Shake speare was a schoolboy there."
