Murray Smith, Illustrated by John Fulleylove This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.

Murray Smith Release Date: June 4, 2007 [eBook #21672] Language: English Character set encoding: ISO-646-US (US-ASCII) ***START OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK WESTMINSTER ABBEY*** E-text prepared by Al Haines Note: Project Gutenberg also has an HTML version of this file which includes the original lovely illustrations. See 21672-h.htm or 21672-h.zip: (http://www.gutenberg.net/dirs/2/1/6/7/21672/21672-h/21672-h.htm) or (http://www.gutenberg.net/dirs/2/1/6/7/21672/21672-h.zip) Transcriber's notes: Page numbers in this book are indicated by numbers enclosed in curly braces, e.g. {99}. They have been located where page breaks occurred in the original book. For its Index, a page number has been placed only at the start of that section. The page numbers in the List of Illustrations are those in the original book. However, in this e-book, to avoid the splitting of paragraphs, the illustrations may have been moved one (or more) pages preceding or following. In the original book, each illustration was on its own leaf, prefaced by a separate onion-skin leaf containing the description of that illustration. In the text version of this e-book, each pair of illustrations and descriptions is set off from the text with a separator line of asterisks. The original book did not have a Table of Contents. One has been added for convenience.

The modern front was constructed about twenty years ago. * * * * * * WESTMINSTER ABBEY Painted by JOHN F
