Besides these three girls there was
an old hammer that had been brought
here by the first members Of the
parish. tits an old relic and |
hope that ii will be well taken care
Of in future years. The wagon itself
was decorated moderately, and 50
the whole scene represented the
oiden times very accurately. Then
another ox-wagon followed, drawn
by a yoke Of young oxen, and two
of our boys dressed in oiden style,
wearing wooden shoes, took a ride
in il. The children, following the
ox-wagon, were arranged nicely.
The young ladies followed tbechlI..
dren! Then came the married Ia.
dies, the men, and at last the young
men on horses. Every group had
Its decoration and especially did
the United States bannerwave Der
those that took part in the parade.
IAN those that stood from far and
and viewed II said that it was the
most magnificent parade they had
ever seen.
After coming on our beautiful
picnic grounds the people enjoyed
themselves ina most hearty manner,
many takinga special ride on the
oxvagon. In the evening the
grand fireworks were displayed,
II was beautiful sight TO witness.
Howthe sky-rocketsToso in the air,
and, like meteors came down in all
colors. Some burst ia the air and
manyslittlc stars appeared. The
turning and returning wheel threw
the fire in all directions and illu-
mined the surroundings. 1t was a
fine selection of FIRE works.
All were sorry that the celebra-
ton closed with that, for such a
celebration was worth attending,
and those that attended will never
forget the time they had.
Rev. P. Kurtenback, our new
pastor, proved to be the right man
and all were pleased with his ar
rangement and management Of the
celebration, A PARIsHIoNER.

Which were connected with the be-
ginning Of the parish. Then he
continued by giving the history Of

Meeting one day in wood near
Athens a peasant named Botzaris. who
exactly resembled him in face. figure
and form. the count asked him half
jokingly how much money he would
take to face the risk of assassination
to which he 1.-THE count was SO con-
stantly exposed.
The peasant promptly named a sum
equivalent to about G120 of our money,
and Capo d'Istria closed with the Of
fer. A few months later Botzaris was
murdered at Athens. while returning in
his masters carriage from the pan
hellenion. or Greek parliament An
other double" who came forward
directly the news of Botzaris' death
was known, shared like fate. and
afterward nobody could be got to
take over the job for any consideration

So the president had TO content him
Self with promising that. if he were
assasinated. his murderer should be
walled up alive in brick tomb. and
fed upon sailed meat until he died.
D'Istria was murdered on October 9.

duly inflicted upon his assassins, two
men named Mavromichaelis. the
brother and son of Mainote chieftain
whom he had imprisoned
