JXXviii. WAREHAM AND LYTCHETT HEATH. 



Lord EUSTACE CECIL, in reply, said that it had been a great 

 pleasure to Lady Eustace Cecil and himself to see them all 

 there, and he offered them the most hearty welcome. It had 

 been his good fortune to make that place what it was, and, from 

 the point of view of Nature, there were few places in Dorset or 

 elsewhere that were more beautiful. And to Mrs. Evelyn Cecil 

 it had been a great pleasure to show them the various botanical 

 changes which she had there worked out so successfully, and 

 the numerous rare plants which she had brought from South 

 Africa and other parts of the world, and which she was so well 

 able to describe. 



Before returning to Wareham Lord Eustace showed his 

 beautiful little Chapel of St. Aldhelm, and called attention to 

 the variety of stone used in the structure, and also the various 

 orders of architecture reproduced, forming a truly "composite 

 building.
