A NEW-ENGLAND FUNERAL
DESCR1RED HY ONE OFTHE ? WAITERS."
Kansomk, Masa.. March 21.-" I wtsh some one
wouid come bore and discovor ns, and thon a set
of neople amvo and settle, so that thus we might
gradually becomo cmlized and at last enlightened.
Iluve you any idea tnat it is ?known in wyat inky
dnrkness wositf And yet I dou't Biipposo thore ia
a per-on in lown who cannot read and write. I
don't mean that bo can spell or put a granitaatical
aentoneotogother. Tbat power ia not necossary.
eveu to bo gradnated from tho Contro Hijh School.
And whatdo you iiuagint will bo required of us at
that funeral this attcrnooii t We shall not pbase
them, I know, and yet I BM going to try with ull
mv might b) do wbat thoy expeot." Thus my sis
tcr (iertrudo on a certalu day last sumtuer.
The town of Ransome, whleh you will not find on
any inap, is removed from the soashore. It is in
Mas.-achuKctta. It is lovely of aspect, with bills
aud biooks and rocky pastures, and distant purplo
uiountaiiH. liut it ia of its poople moro thau of ita
scenery that I BM going to speuk.
It isahnost amiraole how auch plaoes ean stllt
exist in Massaehusetts; hamlets not half a MM
miles away fro n towns wbore livo ladies and geu
tietneu who cau uso a singular vorb with a singular
stibject, aud who know wbat plural BMMM, A
gicat deal biitigs M knowledge soemingly so himple.
Here in this part of Raasoute wo are M iruod if we
say " How aro youf" iustoad of "How be yot"
.Such is tho natural proueuoss to depr.ivity that I
have basely truckled to popular opinion and ilung
about tho wroug verbs reeklessly. I don't ihiuk I
BM Ukad any tho bottor for it, und I imagiuo I am
still cailed "sttiok up."
They will uot read horo, and yon aro a "lazv,
shtfless thing" if you ro.id. " I aiu't no ttmo for
readin'," a man will say Hcornfully; and you shall
B I li.nisittiugfor boura in a nutnb sort of way,
petii.ips sinokitig, paafcapaMfaaM doing aa anak
,.s that. He will tell you he is roating, and he
wouid sincorolv boliero himsolf an objoct tor
blamoif bo sbould bescannlng a newspaper or a
book.
You say this stnto of aflairs cannot be in MaMV
llbMllta liut Itis, and thougb wi have iivod In
th,- midst of it for stx ye.ifs, it even now swras ln
crodible to us. Wiiat impaasable. thougb tnvistblo,
barrior is there which prevents gHMMBTI of aense
and rolinoiiient and literary tistes frore coming
here, wl.en a few miles away you shall nndoulture
und g.iiialityt irue, there is no railway to tho
villago, but aruilway is not aolely a civilizer. I
defv any BM M toaoh tMM peoplo anything. They
may li.sien. or appoar to liston to sotne MM an
nounciugastdf-ovideat faet, not known to them.
und you will soe all tho tiiuoon their hM B look
of .iull MMM af you who sbould bolievo such a
thing. "Ho who wouid oonvlnco tho wnrthv Mr.
Diin.lerhoa.l ofunv tmth which Dunderhead does
uot s. e, mtist be a master of his art."
liut I was going to toll you abmt tbat funeral.
A miin livingu-arus had dlod aftor a MMJ and
palafttllllaaMl mysisteraud 1 ealled to ask tho
fatmly if wo could assist them in any way. Wo
met soveral womoii with lugubnous fices who had
MM in to HM tiie corj.se. We were invitcd in for
tnat puroo.se, and as a great treat, but doolinod.
" Cau we Im? af any iiaet' we asked.
" Wnll," with tho oouventional Yankoe uasal,
which, if youever thotightof lt, M that one does
not talk through tho MM, but withoiit the a*sist
inMOf UMAOTfMI "Wail, you oouldu't uohow

the widow.
We protoated our williogncsa could w^ know
wbat was the dntv of waiters.
" Wail, you see, when we've nil gono to the grave,
tho waiters they git up a supper; coll'oo. baa, aud
ao on. 1 hero'll BB a sight o' folks m >sf lik.ly eoine
baab from the grave, and they'll homighty hungry.
Vou'll bavo to teud right up to 'om, yc know.
There'll be aeveral tablea tull. and dishes to wash.
Naw, aaald ya, aawl I'H be so mmm aMaapai bt
M, liut.'' BM idd-d m thoughtful commiseratio..
of us. " if ye do, v oi can't go to the itr.ive."
We suld wo wouid stay and wouid try to do
wbat wiis proper.
" llow iipi?>ti?itiB aoitig to the grave mitst be."
aaid (ier'ru.le, a* we walkotl hoino.
On the way wo met Nanov HoUand. who waslak
itigdown a siriiiger ftom Mill Village. She ex
nlaiaad that her eomp.inton had nover aeon Mr.
Ewell, the man, but that BM felt a wish to see the
aarpM, Mts. Ilollaud wasoid. and tremhling with
the interest and eicitomont of tho MMM, She
laked if wo wero to bo present "to the funeril."
When told that wo wero to be " waitors," she
looked at us with uuniist ikahie surprise und euvy.
" Be yo, now T 1 declare I told Miss Ewell I'd jes'
as hevo stay an' holp. on'y 1 cau't leavo Kobcrt, ye
know," and she went on.
Froni interviows with aeveral other nefghbors we
saw tbat our ortke was a covetod one. Did it not
(jiveau almost imlimited opixirtunity to poor into
morv part of tho house ; to see where dust h id col
toetodj tofttid out just how many pies had baM

were inaileas they onght to be f I overhcard ono
decrepit old woinau, who romained heliiud m the

Oh, how hot it wasl Itwasfervent as a d.iv ln

eoppoty hMB, and without a bro.itb of air. It was
the third day of such heat, nnd overy onn foretold
that the " spell wouid br.vik before night." Mean
wbtle it had not brokon, and wo wore ln tho Litch
,n brewingcotleeand tea. We put two tables end
to end ln the " sottiB'-room." aud hastened to
?praad I bBM with crockery, cake and pio, stacks of
|,i...',.l an.l of cold hoiled corned boof.
The ceme.ery was not far, und we wero barely
r.aily, when carriage after earriago drove baok
fro.ii the grave, and their occupauts poured into
the house. Whoro do tho ic.en get those .uriously
hbaped saek coats which bag so ln tho back and
sloevesT liut that the days of periprttotio fetnale
tiulors aro over, wo sbould say that those garments
wero their work. Those MM sliiueh ln aud out of
doors, talking in mumbling MMM, while thelr
woii.en in pnm droasos pat their hair beforo the
little looking ttlasa ln the hedrootn, then come out
one tiy one, and peer over tho table at us. Thoy
talk, too, aad disciiss how well. or how ill. tho min
wtordid. <>ne thinks hedid not i.nprovo the occa
bJm coiiectly, anotber that bo was not sumoiently
" f.elin'iu his jiraycr for the widder." "Widdors
is Yustouieil to bein' prayed fur moro parliculur,"
said Nancy Holland, who spoke, I auppose, from
..xponoiico. hhehavingbeou a widow twice before
who tnan ied her Uobert.
ThoiiK'h thor all talk, they aro evidontly unpa
tient for tbo feaat No leaa than ten earriago loads
l,uve come. Wo learn from the remark of one tbin,
p,|,-facod wonmn that it isa distmctton to have a
gOOd many come back from tbo gnivo, and partake
of the f.stival.
" When Mlss Martin was buriod they only had
six carriages to supper," she says ln a oougratu
latory way to tbe bereaved wouian, aa lf in Mrs.
Ewall's case sorrow had its cotnponsations.
" Wnrron, be had ? good many frinnds," roplied
tbo widow, a glimmor of cotuplaceney ou her face,
which ia careworn and sallow.
In I few moments we bavo tho lirat tabloa full,
iiiclii.ling tlie nii-aist.T, who is in a hurry, having
itnolier funoral la attend at throo o'clook. He
drinka, tlurstily, tbree cttps of tea, nnd is hustled
ti altor a haii(U!ui!ve uud geutle murmur of oondo
lence t>> tho widow.
For tho noxt hour my sister and I might hare

feaatora very particuiar about their coffee aud toa,
und very copioua iu tholr consumptioii of thoso
boveragos. Wo have out the thud staek af oomod

green giughain drass, aoomi to subslst ou picklea.
aud la very arbltrury iu har romarks to me lou
cerning those relisbea. ghe aiipears to thing tbat,
in some raystenous way. I am responsible for tha
tact that there ia a wbitish mould on some of
thaaa preaorvtMi oncumhera. Whea I han.l. her tha
disb tbe tbird timc, she says in a busky whispT:
"There ouglit to a' been bakod lieana. Whr
didn't yo eee to itf Hand me them oakes. Aii/t
there no beans in the hous" anyhowf"
"I *aw a bushol of raw beana in tho abed," I
i".niiot help sv/nu'. she tossed her bead, poiuted
to her eup and said " Tea."
I hurriedoff craveuly to obey bor. Wo washed
diahes furiously lietwoeu whilea, so that the aup.
1,1. might not fail. Afcei the utat tableful had
beon fcd, I ran dowu oellar for more piea, I fol]
