Soath West Harbor
The trees in those parts OF our town most
remote from the seashore and nearest the
mountain suffered the most from the ice
storm Of January 2s and 49, Many valu-
able trees are stripped of their branches.
Their owners think they ought to be cut
for fuel at once as they will probably soon
decay. The oldest inhabitants never saw
such weight of ice on trees before, and
never heard their fathers or grandfathers
speak Of anything like this. The white
birch, poplars and cedars are most badly
broken. Many young trees which were ben,
to the ground by the weight of ice came up
again after the rain. We feel sad for the
loss of old trees that have been our pride
and pleasure for years. And vet the views
in the forests were grandly beautiful, some
thing which human eye has but seldom
looked upon. In some places il seemed like
another and crystal world, grand and
solemn. The trees dressed in crystal and
bowed as if in worship, the Young birches
with their heads on the ground. the tall
evergreens with heads all bent towards the
SOUTH seemed like mourners at some great
funeral, where. while they mourned the loss
of friends on earth, they rejoced at the
glory OF immortal spirits, inhabiting CITY
of pure gold like clear glass, with walls of
jasper garnished with all manner Of precious
stones. where the gates are of pearl ana the
street of the city pure gold. as it were trans
parent glass.
