The RURAL CEMETERY is an evidence of the Christian feeling which prompts a sacred regard for the remains of the loved and lost. The association held its first meeting for organization on April 25, 1849; Dr. Joseph Hall, chairman, William Pillsbury, secretary. Twelve trustees were chosen, and the date of an- nual meeting fixed for the second Monday in April. A second meeting was held three days subsequent to the first, and the following first board of officers chosen : Joseph Hall, president; Frederick Bradley, vice-president; William Pillsbury, secretary ; Daniel S. Baker, treasurer. A cemetery was located on the lands of Silas C. Brown, and included an area of two acres and eleven rods of ground. It was laid out in one hundred and twenty plata, each twenty feet square. On July 4, 1849, the services of dedication were held, and included addresses by Rev. Silas C. Brown and Elder David Millard. The first burials of persons who died after the organization of the association were May A. Pillsbury, June 21 ; a son of John Allen, August 8; Charles Evenden, August 18; Amos Haynes, January 31, 1850; and Mrs. Lucy Baker, wife of Bayze Baker, aged seventy-one years.
A SOLDIERS' MONUMENT was erected on the 29th and 30th days of Septem- ber, 1865, at a cost of one thousand dollars. It is of Connecticut brown free- stone, placed on a substantial foundation. Lower base is four and a half feet square, one and a half feet thick ; upper base three and a half feet square, same di- mension as lower in thickness. The shaft is eight feet high, two and a half feet square at base, and two feet square at top. Above is a capital two and ten-twelfths feet square, one and a half feet thick. The whole is surmounted by a ball and eagle three and a half feet high, making the entire height from foundation sixteen feet. The names and suitable record of thirty-one deceased
soldiers are inscribed on the shaft of the monument; the funds for the monument were raised by subscriptions from one hundred and seventy-five individuals.
We have seen that the inhabitants of West Bloomfield were happy in the se- lection of their homes. Mills were erected almost cotemporary with settlement. School-houses were not delayed, and a church building was eesayed before the strength of the people was sufficient to complete the work. In the amount of manufacture the enterprise of individuals seems unlimited, and in the following record of soldiers the undoubted patriotism of the young men reflects upon the town honors bright and everlasting. The cheap eulogy is often unworthily be- stowed and detracts from real merit; but the history of West Bloomfield, fair in itself, is far below its real deserving, as expressed in these pages.
