THE LATE +" FOURTH Never, within our rec
objection, have the people so universally ceebra'
ted our national Holiday, as the one just passed
EVERYWHERE the people laid down the implements
Of toll, and gave the day to relaxation and, en-
ioyment. The weather was peculiarly favorable.
Sunday Schools, civic, social and military organ
izations turned out almost every village. had It's
orator and parade of some9 description, peils
were 1runge cannons fred, and bon fires lit,
throughout the whole land. brsqs Oh 5lqoaq
In Towsontown, the Programme +" was
some what varied. When The peaceful citizens
awoke they were surprised to find that the dis
tinguished Jefferson Davis Esq. late president
of the Southern Confederacy, had come to town
during the night, and had been quietly suspeh-
ded,-not on sour apple tree" but on a'rope,
stretched across the street, in front OF the iOdd
Fellows Hall. He was loosely clad in rather a
dingy looking skirt hat some what dllapidated,
probably from service in o Georgia pine forest,
booted and spurred, and wearing very, woe
be-gone expression Of cOuntenance. Two .pia-
cards were attached to his person with the mot
toes nBehold, We traitors your leader DOOM
g Thus be it ever TO leaders in infamy..' As
soon as it was certain that life was extinct
match was applied to the body and the mortal re-
remains of the late president wentupin smoke.
During the day, numbers of city people came 10
town, and the cars were. mostly crowded In
the evening there was fine display of fire works,
lust above the Smedey House Many of our
citizens went to Balto., Gettysburg and else
where, to celebrate the day. 90 iila5ii -"
At School House No. 4 in, the SIKH Dlslllct,
there was good turn out of the surrounding
pcope. Horses, wagons and carriages of every
description were scattered through the surroun-
ding grove, giving it a sort, Of camp-meeuQg
appearance Although in the midst OF harvest,
many of the Farmers left their work and came
out with their wives and children, each party
bringing their own lunch for dinner. rgZl
The assembly was called to order by w. H
Hoffman ESD. as chairman, with Mr.. Henry Shew
as Sec, when appropriate addresses were made
by l.. NJ Haverstick, j. T. Ensor, and Maj. Saml
Kramer Alnumber of returned soldiers were
present. The exercises closed with little foot
race between well-known rebel sympathizer
of the neighborhood, and detachment Of the
Maryland Brigade, The former seemed t9 be in
search of his g rights when we left. .,,r
The Sunday School celebration at, the Sher-
wood Parsonage near Cockeysvile, was varied
by pair Of weddings by the Rev. D. Hof,
Pastor When the auspicious moment arrived,
the happy couples left their sports for the Church,
when they, were solemnly united, in presence OF
the entire company We presume they o had
made all necessary arrangements previously.
The Texas people also held PIC Mic near Cock
eysville for the benefit Of the Catholic Church al
the former place It was well attended and
dancing and mirth were the order of heday.!
