Text Appearing Before Image:
their strength from the overflowing fountain of God's
love. They walk and do not faint, they run and do not
weary. Here also is found that mine of intellectual wealth
from which these Cedar Boughs have emanated. We
read one poem ; it is beautiful, and we want to call your
attention to it. We read another; it is equally good,
and so on, from the beginning to the end of the book.
The Mother in the Deity is here made manifest. The
Mother Spirit in the New Creation here stands in her
place. The virgins that follow her are brought unto
the King in raiment of needlework; with gladness and
rejoicing they come, for grace is poured into their lips.
They ride prosperously, because of truth and meekness
and righteousness.
Thus the Cedars of Lebanon wave in majesty, distilling
dew and sending forth boughs for the healing of the
nations.
The Daughters of Zion have arisen to thresh and to
beat in pieces many peoples, and they will consecrate
their gain unto the Lord, and their substance unto the
Lord of the whole earth. Amen, so let it be. PI n 2 2^

DEDICATION AT POLAND SPRINGS OF THE
MAINE STATE BUILDING.*

ALSO THE CELEBRATION OF THE CENTENNIAL OF
THE RICKER FAMILY AS HOTEL PROPRIETORS
IN THE TOWN OF POLAND, ME., JULY 1st, 1895.

The clay was seemingly made for the occasion. It was
a beautiful day when the great men of the State of Maine
met upon her loveliest spot of ground.
The Shakers had been kindly invited by the proprie-
tors to be present, and be assured we availed ourselves
of the privilege. A number of our people went early and had front
seats. Our carriage came a little later and stopped in
the road opposite. We were near enough to hear dis-
tinctly all that was said, and see the speakers upon the
platform.
We heard the Governor of the State, Honorable Henry
B. Cleaves, deliver an able address. The next speaker
was a Judge Advocate-General of Massachusetts.
