CREOLE FIRE COMPANY No. 9, by all accounts had
glorious time of at Biloxi on the glorious Fourth
After celebrating the day in manner worthy Of
themselves and of the day. they presented their fore
man, Joseph Didot with surprise testimonial in the
shape of beautiful and costly gold watch and chain
costing upwards of 5000. The watch had the proper
Inscriptions 10 its case and at the end of the chain
was bunch of charms, consisting of miniature
irehat, trumpet, etc. The day was the anniversa
of the company and Mr.. Didlot had been foreman
seven consecutive years 80 the spirit and feeling OF
the occasion may easily be imagined.
One of the guests of the company, Mr.. Frank
Ames, Of Jackson Fire Company No. Is, after seeing
Mr.. Ddlot get his WATCH went right off and got him
self one of the most valuable and unpurchasable kind
of time keepers in other words, went and got mar
ried then and there, over in Biloxi. Though Mr..
Ddots watch is splendid one, we think Mr.. Ames q
bride will prove the better time. keeper. A wife
never runs down for want of winding up and we'll
leave it to any married man of experience, if his
betterhalf can't tell when he comes home at nights,
true to the hour, though there be no watch or
clock within hundred miles.
But of this no more. We congratulate Mr.. Didlot
upon the very handsome token of esteem presente d
to him by his brother iremen, and congratulate Mr.
Ames upon the good taste and sense which prompted
him to select the Glorious Fourth as the day of bis
departure from the ngorious state of singlebles-
sedness.'
