ToLLING A DEATH IN MAINE.
A Curious Custom Maintained In ltemot

A Curious Custom Maintained In Remote
Regions OF tho Pine Trec State.
The traveller through some of the
more remote rural regions of Maine oc-
casionally hears what most men of three
score and ten remember as a familiar
sound in their young days-the t)lling
of church bell on the death of deni-
zen of the neighborhood, the strokes
numbering the years of the persons life.
about the use of the bell, so
long neglected in the more populous
communities, and to a writer for
the Lewiston Journal no funeral serv-
ice ever brought the fact of death
home with the same pathos as listen
ing to the unexpected sound of 'the
death bell" startling the community
into hush, broken for a few minutes
only by the low, whispered query
"Why, who can that be?" Then, as the
tolling went on. the count was kept care
fully to help solve the mystery. The
tolling began usually very soon after the
breath had left the body, and before the
news had spread through other chan
nels. If very aged person. the count
would require n considerable time, while
strokes. A very dramatic scene con-
nected with this old custom of
tolling the age of the dead is
told by Miss Mulock in her
novel, IA Brave Lady" 1t is where
the shallow rector has used other
money than his own, and is on the point
of exposure, and his wife secs no way to
avert the disgrace about to settle on her
husband and children, when the solemn
sound of the death bell peals over the
little village. Breathlessly the count is
kept and the bell goes on 'tolling until
there is only one person in the com
munity whose age will compare with its
stroke-the wealthy old dean who has
told the rector's wife he has made her
his heir. A dear friend lost, fortune
gained-the means brought to hand tc
make good her husbands wrongdoing.
That is what the death bell tells her
Hearing the old familiar sound pealing
solemnly over a Maine hamlet the othel
day brought this scene to mind most
wildly.
