was the hour appointed.
Mr.. T. Nj. Pollock, of the ''PolIock
House," provided the substantials and
liquids for the occasion, and we are con-
fident that all who were present will bear
us out in the assertion that it was "well
DONE" There was baked fish, stewed
fish, and fish in every style; besides ct
ceteras od h6itum. A quiet and orderly
set of gentlemen were present-many
old citizens, who seldom participate in
an affair of the kind; but, from the fact
that the senior of the Columbia branch
of the concern is an old resident, well
known, and has been satisfactorily tested
for years, it was universally determined
that an exception should he made. If
one were were to judge of the "will be-
from the ''has been," the verdict will be
'all right" in this particular instance.
