GOLDEN MEMORIES.

Read Dec. lsth. at the golden wedding OF
and Mrs. Joseph Bufneil, ~ West baldwin,
Miss Florence d. Spring, Hiram, Maine.)
When the golden sun was rising
On morn % bright and fair,
Two light hearts were joined together,
Ready for their fates ~ share.
When the Gun was stening onward.
Passing here and there cloud.
TwOuid have heard, had Il been listening,
Children's voices clear and loud.
When the sun half through It's journey
In the bright blue sky had flown,
Wedding bells again were ringing,
Children now had left their home.
Nov the sun before its setting
Shines on faces fair and bright
Shines the same on two dear faces.
Though their hair be silvery white.
For the two, who on that morning
Stood with hearts so full Of cheer,
Side by side have Travelled onward,
Looking upward year by year.
Bearing all their pains and sorrows,
sharing oil their smiles and tears,
Yet with glafness we can whisper.
Not break for Afty years.
On this eve, dear grandpa, grandma,
OF your golden wedding day,
Will you take our earnest wishes
Which We bring 70 you 70 psy,
For the good and true example
Which you Give 70 NJ to-day.
May you. ere the time fast fleeing
Calls you 70 your home on high,
Gather all the golden sunbeams
Which around Jour path do lie.
Nay you too, though worn and aged,
Reap the harvest you have sown,
And though tears are left behind you
Rest ct last In Gods own home.

Sunday, Jan. 9th, Horace Berry was
called to Locke's Mills to attend the
funeral Of Oliver Millett, an old soldier,
who was an inmate Of the Soldiers
Home at Togus. He died there and was
sent to Locke's Mills for burial. There
has been much dissatisfaction expressed
In regard to the appearance OF Mr.. MIL
lett and also Of the casket which WAS
made Of common boards just stained and
put together with common screws. II
was not lined and only small pillow
for the head, and as one person express
ed 1t Mr.. Millett looked as though he
was just thrown In, without being shaw
ed, and with none Of those niceties being
observed which are customary 10 caring
for the dead. OF course we don't know
what the rules are In regard to such mat
tiers at the Home, but there seems TO be a
wrong somewhere. 1t seems as though
an old soldier, no matter where he dies,
should be prepared for burial In decent
manner, especially one who drew PEN
sion. Let as hope that II Il has been
over thirty years since the close Of the
war, that the people Of Maine will not
forget what they owe to the boys Who
wore the blue, that through the sacrifice
Of their health, strength and lives the
Union was preserved and the glorious
old stars and stripes waves over free
country to-day. There are many men
living to-day, who remained at home
through the war, and held remunera-
tive positions, enriching themselves
thereby, and not realizing any suffering
from the effects Of the war. These men
owe the soldiers all their help and
patronage, In any position they are Ca
psble Of filing, and then they never can
half repay the debt they owe them before
they pass away. Every year their ranks
grow thinner q they drop from the way
side apd answer the roll call 70 the
Great Commander above.
