THE FUNERAL OF MR. AND MISS HARFORD.
A great deal of sympathy and interest was excited in
Weymouth. and especially in the neighbourhood where the
deceased Mr. and Mae flarford lived, and among the
Societies to which they belonged. This sympathy even ex-
tended to the neighbouring village of NVyke Regis. for
Miss Pigott, very kindly •ent front there a very beautiful
wreath of ram and other flowers, abet a lovely cross. of
flowers, to be laid on the coffin of Mira Dal-ford The
undertaker, Mr. W. N. Paul, who has, as • neighbour, as
well as in his sad office, shown much kindly consideration
for the afflicted family, provided • beautiful wreath and
cross of white flowers, with which the c tffin of the father
was garnished. The coffins were otherwise suitable, :
being of plain elm, nicely got up. with the I
usual mountings. The Good Templars called a special
united meeting of their four lodges on Saturday night 1
and it was resolved that they should show their lad token
of respect to the deceased, who, as we have mentioned
elsewhere, were members, one of " Hope of Weymouth,"
and the other of "Caxton" lodge. By special request of
Mrs. Harford, the Good Teniplar service was to he read in
the lodge-room, leaving only the service of the Church for
the grave side. It was also arranged between the two
societies that the Foresters should bear Mr. Hanford, and
the Good Tempters his daughter, and If partible, the
daughter's hearers were to be of her own lodge, "Caxton."
The afternoon was very sunny and warm, a perfect con-
trast to the mid feelings which the mournful occasion
evoked, but a large nuffiber of persons were enabled to
attend. "Upper Canada" was of course very popular with
the inhabitants, who quite filled the little terrace. and the
street was occupied with • considerable crowd. The Good
Templar, met at their lodge-room and bold • special
lodge, and the Foresters gathered in Little George-street,
each hearing the narrow green ribbon worn by the order
at funerals, The procession was than formed:—
Good Templars in the following order :
Bro. Philip, Bro. Randall, ltro. Holmernal, Bro. Crocker,
