Wfctre Anthony Wayne Onec Reattd, Standing on a bluff, overlooking Lake Erie and commanding the approach to Presque Isle bay, is Fort Anthony Wayne. It is built on the state soldiers* home grounds, near Erie, and is cared for by the veterans of that institution. It is built of roughly-hewn logs, cut from the same woods from which Commodore Perry secured timber to build his fleet, in exact imitation of the old block house which stood on the same spot during the French and Indian war. It was here that "Mad Anthony" Wayne was first buried, but his body has been removed and placed among- the bones of his ancestors at Waynesboro.—N. Y. Sun.
