Shooting Match.
re following result:
E1ayaland

In the evening the winning club were
handsomely entertained at Timm's Hall
by the home nine. The supper, which was
gotten up by Capt, Timm, reflects credit
on that gentleman and shows conclusively
that he is an adept in getting up banquets.
The many enjoyable incidents connected
with the affair will not soon be forgotten
by those who were fortunate enough to be
present. A return match is talked OF
when it is hoped our boys will give more
satisfactory account of themselves.

home, and proposes to sell the animal fol
much less than its value rather than be
troubled to get it home. The farmer. un
