On the old Preston Gaines home

On the old Preston Gaines home
stead four miles northwest OF Bruins
wick, there has been a family burying
ground for many years. Mr.. Gaines
himself was buried there 81 years
ago, besides quite a number of 9TH
ere. The old homestead having
passed from the family and this lit
tie "city OF the dead" being about to
become a cultivated field, the chill
dren of Mr.. Gaines determined to
remove bis remains to the cemetery
at Brunswick and did so q few weeks
since. Mr.. VIM. p. Allega. our good
friend of the Forks OF Charlton.
whose parents were buried at the
same place a half century ago, was
there when Mr.. Gaines remains were
taken up, expecting to move them
also. There being no tomb-stones
at the graves OF his parents he could
not locate them, hence could not
carry out his wishes. Mr.. Allega
relates the following concerning the
remains OF Mr.. Games: The coffin
and ell except the skull and some OF
the larger bones had become dust.
A black silk handkerchief used as a
cravat looked almost as fresh and
new as when the burial took place.

framework, but no effort will be SPAR

the interest of the people will be best
served.
