A lock of Nelson’s hair to be sold by auction in London is likely to pro- voke a fair amount of bidding, for of all such relics those of the great admiral command the highest price. A wisp of his hair sold some years ago realized no less than $1,575, or $300 more than the highest price paid for a similar memento of Napoleop, and higher than the highest bid on record for a sample of Wellington's grizzled locks.. ‘The vagaries of the hair relic mar- ket are curious.
