KENNEBEC.
CHELSEA.

Memorial day was observed here at
the Searles Mills cemetery and at
Riverside cemetery by a detail of men
from Cutler Pest of Togus, under
command of Commander Patrick
Hayes. A very noticeable feature was
the small number of men who came to
decorate the graves of their dead
comrades. In years past a fine Memori-
al day program was held with a larg
er number of the comrades from To-
gus participating, but the people
round about now seem to be losing
their once well-expressed patriotism
on Memorial day.
