From Daily of Wednesday

THE CONCERT. = One of the
largest audiences ever in Yes
ler's Hall greeted the Old Folks
at their concert last evening.
The singing was Of a first-class
description for amateurs and
several of them were deservedly
applauded. At the conclusion
of the entertainment, Mr.. w. IL.
White came forward and read a
letter from Mr.. II. L.. Yesler, ex-
pressing his deep regret at his
inal ility to appear and sing his
well known solo, Old Grimes.
To atone in some measure for
the disappointment, he enclosed
d verse Of the original old song,
as sung by himself only. The
verse is as follows:
They bored hole through Nathan's nose.
And put Il string therein;
Then led him down to Grimes pond,
And chueked the beggar in.
This beautiful verse of the pa
thetic ballad, which was greeted
with rapturous applause. only
served 70 deepen the disappoint-
ment of the audience by showing
them the rare treat they had
missed, and it was with great
sorrow they finally left the hall
and wended their way home.
