all its appointments of furniture and fix
lures. The building was formerly Meth
odist church edifce.
The musical convention was held in the
new town hall, which has just been fitted
up in most elegant manner in all it's APP
pointments of furniture and fixtures. The
building was formerly Methodist church
edifce. The society which worshipped in
this building became extinct and for eight
or ten years only occasional religious ser
vices have been held there. Ths remain
ing pew holders obtained permission from
the legislature of 1872 to sell the property,
and the town became owner by purchase
By vote the basement was given to the Or
well ladies' sewing society. This society
had been accommodating funds for num-
Der of years, which they designed to ap-
ply for the purpose of fitting up parlors,
and had saved about seven hundred dol
lars. The work OF fitting up was cem-
mitted to the care of Mr.. Wyman Clark,
and under his supervision excavations were
made and rooms finished off, including
kitchen with all convenient appurtenances-
dining-hall, parlor and ante-room. A large
furnace in the dining-room also furnishes
heat for the town hall above. The town
hall has a seating capacity OF about four
hundred, although that number of chairs
have not been placed. The stage has re-
ception rooms on both sides, with an en-
trance to enc of them from the basement.
