The deceased had been employed at New Lon- don since the first of March, and at that time John Crowley was here.
 The improvements at St. Edwards eem- etery are nearly completed, and 1t Is a very attractive spot. Rev. F. J.

A windmill has been placed and a system of water-works arranged so that with a short piece of hose any part of the eeme- tery can be reached. A small artificial lake will be maintained by the windmill, and the overflow will be conducted to the Middle river which flows along the border This cemetery was originally purchased and laid out by Rev. P. P. Shshan about 30 years ago. Improvements have been made nearly every year, but this year's are the meet expensive. The expense in- cured by the building of the windmill has been assumed by the children of the parish. At the recent festival given foI the benefit of the cemetery $123 was re- alized. --- .--
