tournament.
The Tournament at Darkcsyille, Berkeley
County, Saturday week, says the NclO Era,
was well attended, and every arrangement had
been made that could possibly conduce to the
pleasure Of those who attended. Capt. Ed.
Hoffman was Marshal of the day, and E. Boyd
Faulkner, Esq, Orator. The horsemanship
was not as good as that displayed on a similar
occasion at the same place last summer, owing,
we presume, to the fact that the knights were
out ofpracticc.
The following are the names Of the success
ful Knights. and Of the young ladies who were
crowned on the occasion:
Marion Hcnshaw, Knight Of the Valley"
crowned Miss A. C. Robinson, Of Martinsburg,
Queen of Love and Beauty; Ward Stewart,
"Knicht Of Scotland" crowned Miss Mile
Sinceudiyer, of Berkeley, lst Maid Of Honor I;
George Siuceudiver, "Wild Warrior" crowned
Miss Emma Setter, Of Strasburg, 2d Maid Of
Honor; Edward Payne Knight Of Lookout
Mountain, crowned Miss Jennie Roberts, Of
Berkeley, Sd Maid Of Honor.
Just before tho Coronation ceremonies, Maj.
r. w. Hunter, Of the Winchester Times, who
was on the ground, was called out and made a
short speech. The Coronation ceremonies over,
the gallant Knights aud their chosen ones
repaired to the platforms erected for dancing,
and led off ia the 'gidjy mazes.' The festiyi-
ties wero.kept up until the heightened shadows
fcll as,aut the landscape, when the music ceas-
ed farewclls were uttered, and all were home
ward bound.
