MARRIED BY SIGNS.
Interesting Ceremony at the Sixth We'd
ding Anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs.
Franklin burlington.

A very pleasant and unique social
event took place Monday evening lat the
hall of the Portland Literary Associa-
tion for the Deaf, on Free street. The
occasion was the sixth anniversary of the
marriage OF Mr.. and Mrs. Franklin Fur
ington of Portland. Both the husband
and wife, as well as nearly all those
present were deaf, conversing by the
sign language. The pastor who per-
formed the original ceremony six years
ago. Rev. Samuel Rowe, formerly of
New Gloucester, was present Monday
evening, and performed the. ceremony
anew. The marriage ceremony thus per-
formed, ia novel and interesting. All
the questions and injunctions by the
minister are in the sign language, and
the responses of bride and bridegroom
are by nod of the head. The sign Ian
guage, always expressive, seems most
vigorous and original in this connection.
When the minister wishes to remind the
bride of her pledges to be a true and
loving wife, he represents with his
hands the process of sewing, combing
hair, ETC., which seems to!mean that she
must keep her husband neat and well
mended. For the husband there are in
functions which seem to indicate that
he must boa good provider, etc, The
hands of the minister were very fire.
quently placed over his heart, that be-
ing the sign of affection. simple
prayer in the sign language completed
the ceremony. Mrs. F :. H. Cross, of Deer
ing acted as bridesmaid.
Rev. Mr.. Rowe holds a Bible class ev-
cry Sunday and breaches quite frequent
Iy to a congregation OF the deaf.
About forty were present Monday eve
ming. After the ceremony and other So
cial exercises, delicious lunch was
served
Mr.. Rowe is regularly licensed to mar.
ry, and the ceremony in the sign Ian
guage has all the saoredness of the YER
bal rite.

to see another's outline-or perhaps to catch smile As the evening advan- ces a moon that is just beginning to wane comes tardlly up over the eastern mountains, and sends down her soft light through the slight haze upon scenes that are perfect in their beauty as they creep out of the shadows of the mountains. Through the leaves the light steals down, and soon below there is a crystal mirror afloat upon the Wa ter With the rising of the moon eve rything is changed. The attention is raised from the faint flashing of the hotaru to the scenes that the moon re- veals. In the sky are few strokes of wandering cloud that seem to have strayed from to-day's thunder storm. Past the beautiful clusters of cloud flies a solitary cuckoo, sending down his sweet and sorrowful voice, sending through the listeners a thrill of longing But the rising of the moon has told the company that it is time to go home. Two by two, hand in hand, they go leisurely along the river bank, under the bamboos whispering in the rising night wind.
