The touching and impressive ceremc- nies of to-day will long remain fresh 1a our memories, Nothing occurred during the day to prevent us from rendering tri- bute to the memory of those who fell ia defence of their country and loved ones, The members of the Post, who live in and about Centre Hall, with a few ciu- zens, left Centre Hall at 7 a. m., reaching Farmers Mills_at 8 o'clock, where ws joined by other comrades, citizens Farmers Mills cornet band.

After the procession was formed we were escorted to the cemete ry. After the regular services Colonel keller again addressed us. His address was able, and well received by all narched to the hotel wher we were dismissed, We were in finding Mr. Shaffer's dining we found a sumptu awaiting ng.

It was an able, patriotic and eloquent address which moved all who heard it. When services were over at town we left for Centre Hall being a companied by two cornet bands, drun corps, citizens of Farmers Mills, Spring Mills, Georges Valley, Sprucetown an Potters Mills and vicinity, Committees decorated at Centre Hil and Tasseyviile, The procession wr== met at Centre Hal by the Linden Hall cornet band—bat a circumstances prevented our being pres ent at Centre Hall we must ask some one who was there to speak of the ceremo nies at that place. Now, Mr. Editor, n few words more and I shall not impose upon you longer. We never—since the organization of our Post—and I speak the sentiment of the members—foit #0 much encouraged, so bappy and so thankful as we did Memorial day. We found we had the assistance, co-opera- tion and sanction of the citizens general ly. Wé were especially pleased to seo and bear Hon. Fred Kurtz take so much interest in the work, He delivered two addresses, both of which were eloguen and patriotic. We know that his pres ence (at his own expense, too,) and his addresses will go far towards correcting the false impression regarding the objec of our organization. Mr. Kurtz knows, as should every citizen, that one and the main object is to perpetuate the memors of those who fought and died in defence of our homes, and that we have othe: and pure motives in being bound to- gether ; and all should know, too, tha! our Post could not exist if we carried pol- ities into it. We dare not discuss any olitical nor religious questions in the Post room. Every comrade can think, vote and pray as he wishes. We, there. fore, thank Mr. Kartz for his taking so active a part in the services and also for bis company the entire day. We feel certain that his presence with us de- stroyed some of the unjust prejudices with which we have had to contend, Hon. J. B. Linn, Col. Keller and, Rev Sarvis, also, were with us, and assisted in making it a never to be-forgotten day in this section. Words fail us when we attempt to tell them how much we ap- preciated their presence and assistance ; we can only say, accept our most hearts felt thanks, Oar bands, too, deserve special notice, They were engaged each for only one place, and yet, owing to their patriotic impulse and » mpithy, the drum corps and Farmers Ail band kept with us to Centre Hall, as did also the Loop band, They, like our many other friends, stuck to us the entire day, and at their own expense after leaying the places for which they were engaged. © assure them, and all musicians who participate ed, that they have our thanks and Pest wishes, And to the ministers we retarn our thanks for the part and interest they took in the ceremonies —in short, we feel grateful to Ans who assisted ne or encons aged us with their prosenie, Fesling certain our last and best memorial day was not without its lessons and its infin ence for good, we again thank you all, At Centre Hall the Sabbath schools. citizens, Post, bands and drum corps met A le to the Post were each presented with i beantiful wreath prepared by the ladies cession being ready, all marched through Front and Church sireets to the cemeto- ry, to the music of the bands: and dram corps, At the cemetery graves of the fallen heroes strewn with becoming solemnity, all gathered for the address, Rev.
