This beautiful custom of the w.
0. w. has revived somewhat the old
time custom OF a more reverentiaI
observance of the duties we owe to
the dead. which, i'm a large meas
ure, Is becoming obsolete, and the
more fashionable methods that have
more form than sincerely have Ia
ken their places. There are persons
now living who remember thh time
when it would have been resented
by any neighbor to be offered COM
pensation from another neighbor for
services rendered at the funeral of
one of this family.
This is a beautiful custom and is
still observed i'm many of the rural
districts, and it is to be hoped that
it will never be entirely dispensed

Irving says, ooh, the grave, the
grave-it buries every error, COW
ers every defect, extinguishes every
resentment. From its peaceful
bosom spring none but fond regrets
and tender recollectionS. And
again he continues: 1.-THE sorrow foH
the dead is the only sorrow from
which we refuse to be delivered.
Every other would we seek to heal,
every other affliction to forget; but

keep open,-this affliction we cherish
and brood over In solitude" A
very large crowd gathered together
ON the occasion, and the services
were conducted in a very solemn and
imposing manner. There were prob
ably SO or so sovereigms to pay this
tribute to this deceased brother. The
monument was am elegant shaft mod

those fraternal orders, especially the

obsehivances are not only replete with
interest to the surrounding commun-
ity, but they bind the members of
the fraternity closer together.
The camp of which Mr.. Singletary
