_Change in the Appearance of the Dead._--A woman near Maidstone, who had
had much experience as a sick-nurse, told me some years ago that she had
always noticed in corpses a change to a more placid expression on the third
day after death; and she supposed this to be connected with our Lord's
resurrection. I omitted to ask her whether the belief were wholly the
result of her own observation, or whether it had been taught her by others,
and were common among her neighbours.
