MARY BRADY, THE T00 N'Hlr Nat'l+E.:TAT1\"RA ARE koAIN.T the better providing for the county's poor is something that broad-minded, intelligent men will find It difficult to conceive. The erection of a Hotta.. ,1 Refuge in Huron would be as great • boon Pt the townships as to the town and villages, and perhaps more so, for aecordme to population the proportion of unfortunates who would re- quire, to take advont'ige of it is larger then that of dwellers in the towns and villages.

Admirable order was kept till the cortege came near 110sncvtn. People began gatber- ing in the cemetery early in the morning, facing the wind and drenching rain. The grave, which was some seven feet deep, had been cut out of thearttfictal mound covering a plot which had long been used to inter the crest people. By 4 o'clook the police came overwhelmed by the ever-increasing crowd. When the tint part of theproces- sion reached the lower gate at 5 o'clock it was found to be impossible to penetrate the dense masses la the struggle with the ,,u - lookers the police were obliged to abandon the attempt to dnve them back. The surg- ing crowd around the gate seeking to see the cortege met a greet contending wave of others trying to enter, and • scene of great confusion ensued. The procession for • time was checked. It was decided to cease the lower gate and this was effected amid great disorder just as the heave reached the spot. The hearse was then taken to the upper gate. Here coffintbef was removed and placed upon specially constructed for ,bat purpose to enable the procession to file around and view the bier. At 6 o'clock orders were given to remove the coffin to the sided the grave. A body of the ('fan-ns-t:sel suc- ceeded in clearing a way to the grave and formed a circle within which were grouped the lord mayor of Dublin, the chiefdig- nitaries, Mr. Parnell's colleagues in Parlia- ment and the relatives. The crush round about was terrible. A wILD SCENE Of CONFUSION. Darkness had set in. The noise of ou s* of shriek- of McKillop, is a helpless old woman of 80 pars. She is in her dotage.

This was successfully carried out. Delegates from several branches of the i.on- don League placed wreaths upon the bier.
