The Ladies dcpa, tmcnt was well flled,
and showed thai they too itit u c1mmeno'-
lie interest for the welfare of the society,
and it is largely through their influence that
they are kept up, The display Of hondi-
work was fine, and showed that the tAr
daughters of Whi,ingham know well how
to handle the needle, They can beat any
sewing machine yet in market. The DIS
NAV of raised work and painting were of
the first order, and showed that they under
stood the ants. The ladies department was
certainly a success aud much admired on
| all hands.
cannot close without making special
mention of the Shelburne Falls Brass Band,
they are fine band of musicians, and dis
coursed sweet music through the day.
As our towns-people returned 10 their
dwellings, but one feeling pervaded all class
es that of pri lie and qualification. The OK
hiltion had been triumph, and crowned
with success beyond the hopes and .an'icip&-
t;ons of its warmest friends. This social
festival of the people of Nottingham closed,
and but single accident occurred to mar lis
Measure. A little boy IS years old, named
Francis Sprague, was crowded off plat
form by a FESTIVE colt and had his arm
broken near the wrist by the fall. Oher-
wise it was a day of unaloyed enjoyment,
pro noting the objects for which it was de-
signed and leaving naught but pleasant i'm
pressions upon the memory. / suhjoin
