Last Sunday a procession of wagons filed
Into tbo cemetery, drove up alongside a
hew made grave, took out a coffin, silently
loworod it into the grave and as silently
moved away. Not a prayei was said, not
a tear was sued; nothing done to indicate
that tbe last sad I lies were being performed
over tbe remains of one who bad been loved
while living or regretted when dead. Not
even name ot sex of tbe deceased was men
tioned.
When tbe dumb prooession bad left tbe
cemetery and the coffin in the open grave
some of our citizens, moved by the sad and
solemn sight, gathered around tbe unwept
and departed ono, and there offered a pray
