Nearly All Gone, but Not Forgotten.
In n quaint little churchyard near
Portland, Me-, is a handsome headstone
bearing the inscription, "Gone, but not

this stone is a trifle odd.
Under it was laid away, not a body,
but a shinbone covered with a red wooden
stocking. The man of whom it is sup
posed the bone was a part went off fish
ing one day and never returned. Days
passed by, and the wife and friends grew
anxious. Neighbors in whispers sug-
gested that John Anderson, grown tired
of Annie's shrewish ways and high tenn
per, might have committed suicide OF
left for parts unknown. But Annie felt
assured that John was drowned.
Finally one morning several years
ago, there was cast up on the shore the
shinbone covered with the stocking.
This stocking Annie vowed that she had
knitted with her own fingers. In spite
of opposition the town hearse was
brought out and the shinbone, stocking
and all, was carefully placed in a box,
With due ceremony it was buried, pray
ers were prayed over it, hymns were
sung over it, and above it was placed
the headstone bearing the inscription,
"Gone, but not forgotten. Cor. st,
