MANCHESTER IrEMs.-Grdre Robbinq.-
During the spring and early part of the sum.
mer, the people of Manchester and vicinity
planted the most select flowers that could be
obtained from different lighthouses, upon the
graves oftheir departed friends, that have been
inferred in the Manchester Grave yard. These
flowers were nourished with great care, and
their rapid growth and beautiful appearance
delighted the ewes of many visitors. The
graves showed that their occupents were not
forgotten, but still lived in the minds of many
friends. But these flowers could not remain
to decorate the homes of the dead. Certain
persons who are too cunning to be detected
in this outrageous robbery of the dead, pass
through the graveyard, and cut, or pullnp by
the roots the choicest, and carry them off for
purposes unknown. One lot was, ON last
Sabbath, robbed Of nearly every flower it con
tanned, and from another beautiful Cantana
was taken out Of the flower pot in which il
grew and carried away. Many others we're
also taken and the dead robbed of the adorn.
ments placed there by loving hands. Cannot
the Advocate suggest some plan by which this
graveyard robbery can be stopped
