Here they found something more than

bountiful and sumptuOus. It was dinner

A very pleasant incident occurred at the
n table. II is known that there has been some
iiIfeeling between the Grays and the Light
Guards, Capt. Sanford. Capt. Sanford had
been invited to Join the Grays at dinner, and
while the entertainment was at its height he
made brief speech in response to toast by
Capt. Paddock, accompanying his remarks
with very timely present which was
enough to make the Zouaves suspend the
rules" for time, if they had been there
Capt. s. assured the GraYs of his. desire to
have perfect good feeling renewed between
the companies, and pledged his efforts to-
ward the accomplishment Of that end
Three members of the Guards who were
professionally present, (two artists and one
universal spectator,'') joined with Capt
Sanford in three times three for the Grays.
To clinch the assurance, Capt. Paddock re-
spOnded heartily, and the Grays, with three
times three for Capt. Sanford and his gallant
corps. We are glad to see this reunion,
and trust that these two crack companies,
the old and the young, may heneeforth go
on harmOniously, to uphold and bear high
the standard of the united military of Cleve-
land.
