THE HERALD has endeavored to do

BaskervilI and Major Barkley. for un-
selfish devotion and nntiring energy
in behalf of the Fair Association.
Exhibitors are requested to call at

take away their goods. Many parties
requested permission to remove them
on Saturday, but for their protection
1t was deemed best not to graut their
