YESTERDAY WAS
GREEK EASTER;
HAVE FEAST HERE
Yesterday was the Easter Sunday
of the Greek Orthodox church, and
was commemorated by local Greeks
with almost us much pomp and cere
mony as is done in their native land.
It is the greatest national holiday of
Greece, and is recognized by all
classes, as well as by the government.
All forts, army posts and battleships
of Greece, salute the day by the fir
ing of guns, and the people shoot fire
crackers in much the same manner as
we no on the Fourth of July. Any
man who dared to work on that day
would, if caught, be subpect to a fine
and imprisonment.
Another detail of the form of cere
mony as carried out in Greece, is to
hung the figure of a Jew in effigy and
shoot at it, signifying their disapprov
al of that race for the killing of Christ.
Instead of greeting a friend in Easter
with the usual salutation of “Good
Morning,” or the like, the Orthodox
Greek says: “Christ has risen,” and
receives in reply: “I believe it."
Among other details of the local
celebration was a feast, which was
attended by all the Greeks in Seward,
there being fourteen in number.
