SUICIDE IN MENDoN.-Mr. Alvin Allen,
who committed suicide in Mendon, Sunday
morning last, was a farmer about forty-seven
years of age. He had been that morning with
his brother into the pasture about mile from
home, and upon his return, without giving
any intimation of his purposes, went to the
barn, carefully adjusted a manufactured halter
to one of the cross beams, from which he hung
himself, dying apparently with but few strug-
giles. DIR. Metcalf, the coroner, was summon
ed, but deemed it inadvisabie to hold an in
quest Some peculiarities in his domestic ar
engagements tended to depreSs his mind, and
drove him to this lamentable alternative.
His funeral was attended on Monday after
noon, by Revs. Messrs. Stacy of Milford and
Hassall of Haverhill, who offered remarks
adapted to the mournful circumstances.
"THE UNKNOWN DEAD."-The monument
erected by the citizens of Athol on the Fourth
of July, and intended as memorial to the first
settlers whose ancient graves have been desc
Grated, consists of a pedestal of stone, % inch
es square, and Is high, and shaft feet in
hight, and 20 inches square at the base. On
one side was the inscription-"Sacrcdto the
memory of the first settlers of Pequiog,
1885, and on the other were inscriptions re-
ferring to incidents in the early history Of the
town. The ground on which the monument
was erected was portion of the tract laid out
by the first proprietors of the soil, and devoted
to a burial place and church. The church
was afterwards burned by the Indians, and the
ground containing the remains of the early
settlers in part plowed up, and has been left
almost forgotten for the last half century.
These interesting and impressive ceremonies of
the Fourth of July are worthy of imitation, as
tending to preserve the early and valuable
traditions of colonial history, which are fast
passing out of mind.
