A GRAVEYARD FANCY.
(By Andrew r. SeXton.)

As / entered the cemetery, instead
of taking the main avenue, which
wound itself through the most beauti-
ful parts of the burial grounds and
which was much frequented by visitors
to the place, / turned to the left and
followed one of those little by-paths
that thread their way to the least visit
ed portion of our city graveyards--
the death place of the poor The path
bore DO traces of having been used for
years. | therefore concluded that that
portion Of the cemetery 10 which it
led was not now used for burying the
dead, and so / felt that by going there
could secure that which J desired,
solitude. As night was fast approach
ing | could have felt assured of his
in any part of the cemetery.
After / had proceeded some distance.
left the path and walked about among
the graveStoneS, most of them in the
last and worst stages Of decay, stopping
now and then to read the inscriptions
md think out the tragedy of man. l
amused myself in this manner for some
time, but at length firing, / sat down on
one of the graves to rest. All around
me was silenced; all was hushed. Filled
with the majesty of calm my mind
took on a meditative mood. Who was
buried here? How did he die? Whose
relative was he? Or perchance this
grave was that of a girl or woman?
1eS-who was he? I suddenly became
imbued with 4 very strong desire to
know exactly on whose grave | was re-
posing. I sat bolt upright, turned
around. gazed at the square block of
white stone about foot high and tried
to decipher that which was written
on it. Time, however. had rendered the
inscription very indistinct, and all that
| could make out was AIRY led 49, .
More than his the stone told nothing
regarding the Harry or Larry-for such
supposed his name to be-who lay
beneath.
Now around this square stone there
We're four graves. I carefully read
the Inscriptions on its four different
faces, and learned that two graves con-
tanned all that was left of John Fong-
hard and his wife, Anne. The inscrip-
ton on the fourth grave like that of
the first was very indistinct but by hard
labor I deciphered the word Mary and
date. 1S47. My conclusions were that
graves number one and four contained
the remains Of a brother and sister,

Burlington Free Press: Ever since
the Indians in the section now known
as Fletcher discovered "honey" in the
maple trees that district has been
known far and wide as the heart of
the Vermont maple sugar country. The
way the red man extracted the deli
cious compound was somewhat slow as
compared with the present process.
He used to cut a slanting cash in the
bark and insert the lower end of a
gauge shaped piece of wood, from
which the sap ran and dropped into
poplar or Eastwood trough At the
end of the season these troughs would
be set up against the trees and left
until the following season, by which
time the troughs would be thoroughly
widowed.
This materially added to the flavor of
the aboriginal sugar, but can hardly be
said to have improved it. The evapor-
ator of those times consisted of an
iron kettle swung from a sapling bent
over n stump. BY a slow and tedious
process the sap was first heated and
then boiled in this kettle, otter taking
two or three days boiling before it
could be sugared Off This was the
way in which the redskins and the early
Vermonters eked out a ''sweetnin' " to
their tea and johnny cake.
