The observance of Memorial Day
at this place by Aaron Keller Post,

Hyde Park Drum Corps, formed on
the Common and marched to the
cemetery, where the beautiful G. A. r.

were strewn with flowers. The pro-
cession then returned to the village,
where they were dismissed until 1.30

had been very t~astefully decorated
menced with the singing of "Ameri-
car by the choir, followed with
prayer by Rev. Mr.. Taylor; then
came a reading by Miss Mabel Gray
and a poem by Mrs. P. 7. DEMO.
(The poem is published elsewhere by
request.) The orator of the day
was W. H. Parker, ESQ.,, of Cam

very interesting one, vas a review of
the advancement and progress OF the
nation from its earliest days down to
the present time. A handsome trib-
ute was paid to the soldiers, and fit
ting praise was given them for the
prominent part they had taken in
the struggle to perpetuate the nation.
His reference to the home prepared
