WEE FORGOTTEN DEAD.
Onr fathers are fast peeing away, and
of thosewho mime to Canada tinny yettre
ago, when the dark tweet stretched over
the land, only a few rennin. Like some
of those very trees whioh stand out here
and there, without a single oeMpanion, the
ntheradtaving yielded to the woodcutter's
axe, ,
Thtl, sentence whioh reads, "The wind
passeth over it and it is gone, and the plaoe
thereof shall soon know it no more," is
litterally true of many a grave in Canada
to -day, and there is soraething sad in the
thought that someone Into a friend who lies
in a nameless grave, over which tne ani-
mals may wander at will, and across vvhich
a stranger will walk with careless and un-
thinking step. And although these bodies
a.re corruptible, and crumble to _dust, yet
they are raised again, and this belief in the
resurreotion of the body may have some-
thing to do with the care and respect winch
we show to it, after the spirit has taken its
departure.
Many nations, if not all, have been in the
habit of burying their dead withvarious
solemnities, frequently in burying places of
great durability, and if lackingthat, still,
i
not without some memorial to ndicate the
spot. We do many things to keep the dead
in remembrance, espeoially the dead who
are missed, but it would seem that those
even whom we have known, and who have
died during the last ten, twenty, or thirty
years, are almost forgotten. A yard has
been encloeed, and one after another has
found a resting place in it, and a slab or
monument, more or less costly, stands at
the head of the grave, as a memorial. A
year or two passes by, and the freshly -
turned earth is carpeted with the bright
green grass, and the newness of the grave
has passed away. As time flies, one after
another of these graves has been neglected,
until many of the slabs have fallen, and the
enclosures broken down, so that the graves
which were once fresh and trim, now pre-
sent an appearances:), of utter neglect, the
weeds running riotously over the different
mounds, and the paling tottering and ready
to fall.
Such is the condition of some of our
cemeteries or graveyards in this county -
the most disorderly place to be found,
where confusion seems to reign supreme,
and where it would seem as if this present
disorder were pointing the finger of scorn
at the former memorials, and saying,
" iVhat a sham! What a mockery!"
R. Q.
Yours,
Mr Wm B. McLean, who for several
years has been extensively engaged in
the agricultural implement business in
Hensall, has gone to the other side,
Where he is employed by a large manu-
facturing establishment in Syracuse,
New York State, as a special agent to
travel in the North and Western
States, at a salary of $1,600 a year and
expenses.
It is with feelings of the deepest re-
gret that we chronicle the death of one
of Seaforth's first settlers, and most
honored citizens in the person of Mrs
Thomas Adams. This sad event took
place on Saturday, Sept. 3rd. De-
ceased was a native of the county of
Fermanagh, Ireland, and was in the
73rd year of her age at the time of her
death.
Mr Charles Schmidt, a well-known
hotel keeper of Hamilton, died Wed-
nesday after a short illness. Deceased
was born in Hanover, Germany, and
came to Canada in 1876, residing at.
Listowel and Wingham,before settling
in Hamilton. He was 43 years of age,
and was respected by all Who knew
him. The funeral took place at Wing -
ham.
On Saturday evening Jas. Johnston,
of Palmerston, died after a somewhat
prolonged illness. About six months
ago he was operated upon, at Toronto,
for the removal of a tumor but the
operation did not prove successful, and Railroad competition in the United
he gradually declined until his eyes States is so keen that the different
closed in death. Deceased was a resi- g lines are put on their mettle to provide
dent of Brussels at one time, and was the very beetaccommodation for travel -
brother to George Johnston, of Mor- lers, and they do their utmost to meet
every requirement and. demand upon
them. One of the very best lines in the
States is the Wabash railroad, which
the traveller strikes at Detroit. At
present, the Detroit -Chicago line of the
Wabash only extends irom Detroit to
Laketon Junction, a distance. of 173
Itites-rand-from -there to Chicago -it -
runs over the Chicago & Erie R.R. un-
der contract. They are now, however
building their own line through, which
will constitute the shortest route be-
tween Detroit and Chicago, it being
almost a direct line -maximum curva-
ture, 2 degrees; maximum gradient 26.4.
The country through which the new
line will run, is a level, good agricul-
toral district, but the principal point
aimed at in the construction of the
line was to obtain the shortest mute
between Chicago and the East, and
Detroit, via Chicago, and the West for
through business. They have also un-
der process di construction, a new Un-
ion depot at Detroit, costing in the
neighborhood of $100,000, which will
greatly add, to the:comfort and con-
venience of their They
and the tra-
velling public. They expect to have
the new line completed and running
into new Union depot at Detroit not
later than the 1st of January, 1893, in
time to take care of the World's Fair
business.
It is the intention to run a solid ves-
tibule train on the new line, and every
comfort will be accorded the passenger
that it is possible to secure. Wagner
Sleepers are run in connection with the
through trains, and the NEW ERA can
speak from experience and say that
every courtesy and attention will be
paid the traveller who goes west over
this line. Mr J. A. Richardson, of To-
ronto, is the Canadian representative
of the Wabash. The line does not ter-
minate at Chicago, but has extensive
operations through theSouthandSonth-
western States, and we can recommend
it as a road that gives the traveller
speed, comfort and security,

Quite a serious accident happened at
Wroxeter, on Saturday, at the new
Presbyterian church. While they were
elevating the second scaffolding, the
planks gave way. causing Herman
Gauss and Tony McDonald, to fall to
the ground, a distance of about twelve'
feet. The former was very badly shak-
en up, but no bones were broken. The
latter did not escape so easily, as his
back was severely hurt and his left leg
broken in two places just above the
ankle.
Last Friday a telegram from Detroit
Bashed the sad and unexpected news
that Mrs W. A. Leech late of Bluevale
was dead, having[died suddenly of con-
vulsions. The symptoms were so
peculiar a post mortem was held as it
feared her death was due to poison,but
no trace of anything of the kind could
be found. The subject of this was a
daughter of Abraham Jackson, of
Morris township, and was 33 years of
age. She was married 11 years ago to
her now bereft partner, who, with a
little six-year-old son, is left to mourn
the sudden departure of his pride and
joy.

A careful estimate among Winnipeg
grain men places the wheat crop at

The grade. generally speaking, is very
high, and the expectation is that for
quality the crop will eclipse anything

price is likely to range from 50 to 55
cents for the highest standard.

FIVE CENTS WORTH OF TRAVEL
We know of it bright boy whose
great longing is to travel. His parents
have no means with which to gratify
him in that respect. He occasionally
earns a few pennies by selling papers
and doing errands. Ilistend ofsepend-
ing the money foolishly, he carefully
treasures it in it small iron box which
he culls his safe. One day, after earn-
ing five cents, he dropped them into
the box in the presence of it companion
of.abouthis..o.w.n„ages...andeTcrlatin0.;
"There goes five cents worth of tra-
vel 1"
"What do you mean?" asked the
other. "How can you travel on five
cents?" •
"Five cents will carry me a mile and
a half on the railway. I want to see
Niagara Falls before I die. I am near-
ly four hundred miles from them now,
but every five cents I earn will bring
them nearer, and a great many other
places that are worth seeing. 1 know
it takes moneyto travel, but money is
money, be it ever so little. If I do not
save the little, I shall never have the
much."
Some boys squander every year the
cost of it coveted trip to some point of
interest. Let them remember that
five cents saved means a mile and a
half of the journey. Small asnounts
carefully kept will foot, up surpiising
results at the end of the year, and al-
most every doctor will testify that five
cents worth of travel is better for the
health of the boy than five cents worth
of sweets.

Oh, rude marauder! at the midnight hour
Thou'st waked me from my slumbers. Thy
small ory
Quavering and shrill stili ringeth in mine

And drank of my life blood, while yet I

And raised a mound of quivering flesh to

Now on my cheek and now upon my brow.

With blood, long blue'd to thy cesthetic

Who, when the daring raid was subtly

Did boldly bound the charge, "N —nunum ,"

Did rah..c his giant hand and raise thee low.
