ter to spread a table regardless Of. expense
and trouble, and the willingness manifested
by those who partook of their ahospitalities
to pay the amount. charged, knowing that it
would be appropriated for the comfort of our
suffering soldiers were circumstances which
produced the best state of feeling and left i'm
pressions upon the minds of hundreds which
will not be easily erased. In dollars and
cents no one participating was benefited, buta
richer legacy was inherited by many, who re-
turned to their homes that night conscious
they had contributed towards carrying for

day. Nevertheless, there was very good
