12, 1855, and soon after his father moved his family and his printing business to Brooklyn, Eames' schooling stopped when he was about 15. In 1892 he was appointed librarian and in 1918 the post of official bibliographer was created for him. His discovery of hitherto buried his torical facts earned the soubriquet of "the Sherlock Holmes of lit erary detectives." Brown University, Harvard and the University of Michigan bowed before his amazing knowledge and conferred upon him honorary degrees. The Bibliographical Society of London sent him Its gold medal. He was made a fellow of the American Academy of Arte and Sciences and an honorary member of the Groller Club.

Dr. Eames worked long hours at the library, seldom finishing until 7 or 8 o'clock and then he would read before retiring. In the Summer he allowed himself the luxury of a month's vacation In the Adi. rondacks and there in the coolness of the woods he fished and hiked and rowed a boat. Eager (o Aid He was a well-known figure In his home neighborhood; a small man physically with a gentle bearing and a sympathetic eagerness to help anyone who sought his advice and aid.

He never married and so far as is known had no close relatives. Some of his best-known works were the Bay Psalm Book of Ptolemy's Oeography, of Sir Walter Raleign and tf Capt. John Smith. He also prepared such outstanding learned works as a List of Editions of the Margarita Philosophic, The First Year of Printing in New York, Use of Hebrew Types in English America before 1735, The Proposed Scripture Calendar and Bibllogra phy of Amerigo Vespucci.

Amazes Block Continued rrom Page 1 fence, and talked about the man for whom he worked. "Gosh," he said almost reverently, "he was like a mystery man." "He was a nice fellow," Mr. Smith continued with a backward glance at the empty house, "but he always kept to himself. He was forever reading or translating things," Wouldn't Admit Any One No, he wouldn't admit any one to the house.

There was hardly room to move about. Books, he said, were all over the place. On the floor in towering piles, on chairs and even on beds. Down the street at 2758, Miss Elizabeth Parker stopped her housework and sat down to tell how the docto. for 40 years had taken meals in her house and that her mother had once cooked for him there, She had newspaper clippings spread on the table before her.

"He never talked much and didn't go out socially," she offered by way of explanation of her amazement. "I guess books were his whole life." And so It ran up and down the street. One man, Adolph Strahl, a carpenter, at 2757 hadn't read the morning papers and told of Dr. Eames' death said: "Who that old man?" Death LlfU Curtain They never talked about him much on this old Brooklyn street where the Jamaica elevated humbles overhead but today things are changed, death has lifted the curtain on a life drama they'll never forget. Dr.

Eames was connected with the New York Public Library for more than 40 years an dright up to his last illness, when he was moved from his book-littered home at 2752 Fulton he pursued the tasks of bibliographer of the Public Library. Death ended a career that had its foundation when he was but 12 years old. Dr. Eames liked to tell Interviewers the story of his first awe-eyed contact with the world of literature. When he was 12 he managed to borrow six volumes of Gibbon's "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire." His boyish mind was terribly impressed by the hundreds of references cited.

He copied them down and vowed to read them all. Carried the MaU Not many years later while he was toting a mall bag for Uncle Sam he managed to aave enough from his meager Government wages to acquire a set of 65 volumes of Universal History. His early education wag meager, he never reached high school. But before he reached the age of 18 his book learning won him a Job at clerk in a book shop. Young Eames often was sought out by other book lovers for advice and guidance.

In 1885, when he was 30 his reputa tion was so great that Dr. George Henry Moore, head of the Lenox Library asked him to become his personal assistant. It was under Dr. Moore's tutelage that he further enriched his knowledge and widened his scope so that he established contact with scholars in all parts of the world. During his first year at the Lenox Library, Dr.

Eames undertook what he referred to as his "first big work." It was the continuation of an exhaustive work begun by Joseph Sa-bln called "Dictionary.of Books Relating to America." Visitors to Dr. Eames' home felt the pressure of books as soon as they stepped across the threshold of his door. They were all over the place like dark brown leaves scattered by the winds. Their weight was so great even Dr. Eames grew apprehensive for the safety of his sanctum and had concrete posts set up to support the floors.

One of the rooms was chock-full Dr. Eames found it Impossible to walk about or even sit down. But rather than disturb them he solved the problem by swinging a hammock from wall to wall and there, reclining in comfort, he perused his ancient volumes to his heart's content. A busman's holiday was Dr. Eames' idea of recreation.

He loved to go once a week to the New York Historical Society, where he trans lated cuneiform inscriptions from Assyrian slabs. It was In 1931 that the society gave him its highest honor, the gold medal "in recogni tion of his scholarship and his unselfish devotion to the interests of all researchers in the field of American historical literature." Dr. Eames never traveled but he PAWNBROKERS SALE "ESTATE OF EUGENE ROSENBAUMS. J. Kelly.
