How the Order vvt Away. Their
Dead.
The first burial of a asember of the
Patrons of Husbandry with the honors
of the order, that has come to our no
tico, took plaoe a few days since .in
Kickpnoo, when the remains^ef Henry
Bolin were consigned to their last rest
ing place with all the pomp and funer
al pageant of the Oranger burin! uor
vioo. Mr. Bolin was a prominent mom
ber, and the attendance was Very large,
some 400 parsons being present. The
programme of the burial was about as
follows.
On learing the residence of tho do
otased, the hearse which contained tho
remains was flanked on either side by
three pall bnarers, who walked with
uncovered beads and regnlias draped
in mourning. Following the hoarso
oarac the r Jativos of tho deceased, and
next marched the Sisters of the Order
clad in full regalia. The Brothers came
next, and following them the rait cm
course of people, who had cjojo from far
and noar to witness the coroinonic*. Tho 1
remains ware first taken to tho church,
were a priest went through a ceremony
peculiar to the Catholic church, of which
tho deceased was a member. When tbe
exercise had been concluded, the proces- I
sion took up its march for the cemetery
where tho Grangor funeral ritos were
performed. The coffin was placed on
supports directly orer the open grave
and remained there uitil thu impressive
I and interesting serrice was concluded:
G. B. Coffin, Maater of the Frankliu
L! range, conducted the coromouie*
When tho hr?thern aud sisters of tho
grange of which the deceased was a
member, had assemble 1 ab mt the grave
tho Master read a solcction fr >m the
burial ritual, followed by a seco id selej
tion by the Chaplin, and then the uiim
bcrs repeated sluwlj and solemnly tho
Loru^r^/ar, olosiug with a bcautiiul
and appropriate hymn. Th ^Brothers
oi the Order then stepped to. tb.i grave
and threw into tho opening ?ev-r.il bou
quets of flowers and evergruons. A
abo.t, but powcrfuL a Idross was next do
iivored by the Chaplain' While the
cofiiu was being lowered into tin gr*vo,
a beautiful aud soul inspiring by in was
sung, and during the singing tho sitters
strewed bouquets of flowers upon
tbe descending cofil i UUtil it reach *d
the wooden box at tho button) of the
gtavc. The Master then sprinkled tbe
portion of dirt thrown from the grave
over tbe coffin, aud tho servics closed
with tho solotnu bouediutiuu of the*
Chaplain.
Taken throughout tho ceremonies
ui re very beautiful au 1 impressive.
This was tho first burial of a Granger
in tho eounty, aud, if wo are currently
informed, in the State?that is, with
the ceremonies of the Order.
A Terrible Scene.
Immense damage was done in Sher
brookc, Guysborough Couity, N. S., by
a freshet. The St. Mary's Hirer was
swollen by the rain and thaw. A cou- '
plo of miles above Sherbrooke there is
a natural dam of rocks across the river,
beyond which for several miles it is call
ed Still water. The ice on tho river
broke up in consoquonee of the Ireshot,
and flooded the whole of tbe valley. On
the left bank of the river where Sher
brookc is situated the scene was a fear
ful one. The flood brought down thou
sand of tons of ice and great number of
logs. Whole trees were aprooted from
the banks in the courso of the torrent.
The solid ice below the village remain
ed firm, and the flats upon which Sher
brooke stands, became a boiling sea.
Boats and canoes wore in demand. Eve
ry house was flooded. Tho cattle were
driven out of town by persois on horse -
dack. The womon. children, and aged
people were taken away In boats. Many
families abandoned their houses alto
gether, while others took rcfugo in the
upper stories. Two bridges in tho vil
lage, and a large bridge over the St.
Mary's River, are gone. A new vessel
nearly roady for luunehiag was destroy
ed, and much timbor carried away. The
day after the flood the mountains of ice
and tho logs, trees a*id other debris be
came frozen solid, so that the village is
new imbedded in a frozen sea. The
ruin is indescribable; it extends a mile
and a half in length, by a mile in breadth
In the event of a sudden thaW the vil
lage will be quite destroped.
