They have each had a driving costume made of wide navy blue stripes, made with a navy blue silk belt ornamented in front and back with silk rosettes, the waist being made of navy blue silk.

Leduc, Very Rev.

The day was a lovely one and throngs of visitors were at both cemeteries. The graves were all nicely cared for and tastefully decorated. All Saints' Day was first celebrated in the fourth century. It was instituted when the persecution of the Christians ceased and the Sunday after Easter was appointed by the Greek church for commemorating the martyrs generally. In the church of Rome a similar festival was introduced about the year 610 when the Pantheon was on March 13 consecrated to the Blessed Virgin Mary and all the martyrs. The real festival of All Saints' was, however, regularly instituted by George IV in 835 and appointed to be celebrated on November 1. (SCE 11-4-1893)
