UNIQUE MEMORIAL GRAVESTONES ARE ERECTED AS WALLS OF. PERGOLA. ,Deughterl the Empire at Celt De- vised a Striking Warts of Preserv- ing • Old Headstones by Using Throne For Purposes of Decoration -Eighty Monuments . Make UP Italian Pergola In Otri Cemetery. On a recent visit to the bealetiful and historic town �f Gait my atten-e tion was attracted to a curious -look- ing building in the centre of the lit- tle park -close to the charraion cot- tage home of .the late Mr. William Dickson, whose father was the orig- inal pioneer of the sturdy Scoteh set - tiers from Durnfriee in the eaten &tee a the last century, and whofte niece still occupiea each inmenaer the quaint old house, known. as ."Yirkutichael" (Church on the Hill), so celled from an old wooden church which formerly stood where the park now is, yrritee 'Mrs. Forsythe Grant in The Globe. Thin &melte with it plain, unedorn- ed architecture, was 'fitted with all the &Omega dear to the early Prea- -byterian Church: high -walled pews; the elevated pulpit with its steep, winding staircase, plain communion - table, and PrimitiVe sounding -board. Round• the church was the green - turfed graveyord, and here year by Yew were Ilia reverently the re- mains of the earliest residents of Galt and the surrounding districts; gravet- estottes were erected with the narnes and birthplace (nearly all from, mild Scotland) engraved thereon; and the little "God's acre" gradually filled with those who had . left the old homes for the new. The peers, of %course,were rented, and the ground 'went with the sittuttion of the pew, ;and were part of each holder's, estate. Lite time went on, and Galt became a 'large town, new buildings were erect- ed for worship in more convenient 'situations; but the burial plot remain- ed in use. The day arrived when the - destruction of the old wooden church was carried out and the name of Kirk- anichael alone was left to mark the resting -place of the dead. Litigation took place regarding some technicali- ties, but, at last getting consent from :surviving relatives of those buried in the graveyard, all the stones were re- moved and the pretty little square ar- ranged as a park, with flower -beds and seats. . • • A few mars ago a Chapter of the !Daughters "of, the :Empire Was formed amoDget 'the women of Galt, and after .rendering immense service to different •public enterpriees in the can the at- tention of some of the .members was ,attracted to the forlorn condition of !the old gravestonea. of the former 'burying -ground, and • a meeting was called by the president of the Chep - 'ter, Mrs, R. 0. McCulloch, to con; •sider the matter. With women, in most canes, where there is a definite objectin view, to think 28 to act, and 'the delightful ideaof the present structure Was mooted .by a member 'whose travels abroad inspired her memory, and the suggestion of gath- ering the gravestones into .a lovely and permanent abiding place which ,could be seen from. afar . and visited /by relatives was at once determined on. . Funds were 'eaaily raised when .the object was announced, and now the monument is one of the most in- itereating and appreciated results tif the work of the Chapter. The inonu- n>ei t is in the form of an Italian Ipergo a, .0r .reeting-place, so frequent- ly seen, in garden's ins'sunny Italy, covered with thick • vines to shield from the fierce rays of heat. • • The walls on either side are formed from Borne eighty gravestones, set back to beak, joined be masonry, so that the names and .epitaplis. are aced from within and without; five square. columns are formed also by the stones, and the • pergola has the Ital- ' bre roof of broad, solid, beams,' Paint- ed white, set alnitia afoot apart, which in time to come will be covered wtth carefully -trained grape. vines, Which already show signs of vigoeous.groWth. The stone floor is approached by a large step mede of a single block, and et the 'entrance is a flag the whole width, on which is cut in big lettere the inscription: "Erected by the 'Daughters' of the Empire, deler,". • while all through the length of the pergola stems are set into the floor. On the outside are narrow bed., of bright scarlet geranfums .carefullY tended, the Whoa shades of the flowers with their green foliage mak- ing a delightful note of color against the pale grey and dull white of the .gravestones. Arrangements have been made by the Chapter by which this beautiful monument to the dead pio- `Deers of Canada will ba.cared for in perpetuity, and It will ever remain as a lasting. memorial of their work. ' When the intention of the Chapter' was Made known to the public many touching evidences of interest taken by the descendants' of those buried in the old churchyard were 'shown; =atones were brought forth from' hid- ing -places where they had been'rever- writly stored, and residents of every district in the countryside came to see the memorial and to point out ehe names and epitaphs of their for- bears. Seto on a summer day, the pergola is a picture of "rest in stone";• Dy moonlight the outlines are charm- ing to see, and the tall trees near by • wave a requiem to the dead, ane the rush of the river below the hill seems all in .place as a Mark 'of the Heed of the Infinite. , There are nannygraveyarda of the • pioneers of Ontario (notably that at Adolphustown) which are • 'nothing short of e disgrace to the districte. There are chapters of the order of the Daughters of the Empire all over Canada now. Cannot some of these take the suggestion so nobly and splendidly acted on and carried out by the 'Galt Chapter, and no longer a ow the "ancient phrase whie,h calla the burial -ground God's acre" to be .st, byword for neglect and decay?

Probably the best of them, which was publish- ed two or three years ago, and which Is worth repeating, was the famous retort he made to a certain prelate who rebuked hart for being ao fond of horses, saying that his mind should be more placed upon spiritual mat- ters, They were driving 'along the road, and presently a eornely youn• g Woman parishioner cortesied to them, very fine-looking youpg wo- *an," commented the prelate.
