BILLY GOATS FUNERAL.
A Mortuary Proce edinE Which Was as
Novel as It Was Pathetic.


There is but one step from the sublime 20
the ridiculous, ana an equal distance from
the absurd 70 the pathetic Children have
little perception Of the incongruities OF life,
aud are not debarred from indulglng IN
sentiment by any.fear Of appearing ridicu-
lous TO older eyes. A Hartford gentleman
relates, in Golden Days, an incident IN
which this trait IS strikingly illustrated
He says:
II met upon hillside highway, aday or
two since, funeral procession. IL was a
strange funeral, too, and the corpse was
quite as strange as the funeral team that
drew the imprOyised hearse. Six little BOYS
and three girls drew the hearse, and the
corpse in the vehicle was that of billy
goat. Iasked the largest boy, the leader, IL
he was the foreman Of the fire company,
and he answered:
No, sir; we're funeral
"The strange answer induced me to look
into the wagon, and its contents revealed TO
my sight the first dead goat that had ever
seen. The little undertaken, who had
owned Billy, enlightened me when no said:
"'Billy was good goat, and me and
Billy used to have lots Of fun In old times
"a goats funeral was so novel mortuary
proceeding that accepted the invitation to
become one Of the mourners and follow the
little wagon drawn by the children up the
hillside, through the winding lane over the
common to the grave appointed for the last
resting place Of all that was mortal of poor
Billy.
~ have seldom seen more decorous OBJ
servance by g-0Sn psGple &. the grave
side, when tc3 cIOcs hid from sight all
that was material, THAI was observed by
these children IL the burial Of their dead
friend, whC, doubtless, had often drawn
them ali In jolly good-fellOwship around
and about the highways and hillsldes in
lho same wagon which had carried Billy TO
bis last restlng-place. His grave was not
,cng nor was it deep, but it was deep
enough 10 cover hun well, and in it he was
gently placed and few spsdesful of dirt
carefully deposited upon Billy's inanimate
form.
"a little more ceremony and the grave
was covered, each ctild, as the procession
moved away, turning to say: Goodbye,
Bnlyp 1 stopped and picked daisy from
among it's kith and kin, which whtened the
field all around and about, and laid it on
the grave as my offering-not to a dead
goat, but 10 the good friend of little boy
who loved him well enough 10 give him a
decent burial, and bore testimony to his
good traits in the simple tribute: Billy
was good goat
"As l walked away little song sparrow,
or perhaps it was wren, which had been
nervously hopping about on the bush-tops a
few yards away, few down upon the new
made grave and burst out with rapturOus
song, and floodes the air with melody. An,
well, l thought, as l wandered down the
hillside, there isn't any use for goat
heaven when the grave Of a gray old Billy
is watered by the tears Of children, and
