Sherman Cornet Band-Grand Torch-light
Procession Exercises at the Town Hall
Great Rally Of the Campaign.
The arrangements for the grand republi-
can rally at the town hall tonight have
been completed, and the affair promises to
be great success. The committee and
officers of the young mems Hayes and
Wheeler club have displayed energy and
Judgment in their efforts, and have pro-
vlded every facility to collect, make COM
Portable, and entertain great crowd Of
people.
The Sherman cornet band of Winooski
will arrive on the morning train from Bur-
lington, and will be received by the COM
mittee and escorted to the Bardwell house.
They will entertain the people with several
pieces of their beautiful music during the
day.
The reception committee, G. w. Mussey,
II. f. Field, II. G. Tuttle and g. E. Law
renee, will meet Gov. Jewell OF Ludlow.
On the arrival of the train in the afternoon
Gov. Jewell and party will be met at the
depot by the band and escorted to the Bard
well house, where he is to be entertained.
Two extra cars have been chartered by the
club and will be attached to the regular
train on the SARATOGA road, which reaches
Rutland at 7:45, at Fsirhaven, and will
bring those persons wishing to attend from
Fairhaven, Castleton and West Rutland,
and will return after the exercises of the
evening are concluded. Seats will be re-
served for those coming on this train.
People from the north and over the Har-
lem road are accommodated by the time
of regular trains. Persons coming over
the Harlem road who wish to return on the
ten oc lock train, will please state that fact
to the ushers at the hail, and they will be
seated together where they can leave with as
little interruption as possible.
The Hayes and Wheeler clubs of Middle
bury, Brandon, Pittsford, Castleton and
Fairhaven have been invited to at
tend. There are meetings at
at Brandon and East Middebury on the
same evening and the first two clubs have
declined on that account. The others have
accepted. The meeting advertised at Fair
haven has been postponed to give the peo-
pie a chance to hear Governor Jewell.
The town hall will be provided with
seats to its utmost capacity, and oil pos
sible arrangements will be made for the
comfort of the audience. All voters and
ladies are cordially invited to attend and to
come early, that all may be seated without
any rush. The exercises will begin prompt
ly at eight o'clock. A sufficient number OF
ushers will be in attendance to find seats
for all. The small boys may as well look
up glble seats on the fences outside
where they can hear the band and the ap-
plause and be in the midst of the torch
light procession-for to even that outer
darkness they will be RELOCATED.
Before the meeting salute of twenty
five guns will be fired.
After the addresses by Gov. Jewell and
Col Joyce-both of whom are too well
known to need eulogizing-a grand torch
light procession will be formed to march
through the principal streets of the village,
headed by the band. The line of march
will be as follows:
Form in front of the town hall, march
through Washington street to Main !;
through Main to West through West to
Gotta e through Cottage to Williams !;
through Williams to Grove through
Grove and Merchants row to the town hall
and disband.
People along the line of march are re-
quested to illuminate their houses and

procession. Torches will be provided for
al. Members of the Young Mems club
will please rerair to the town hall in the
afternoon to assist in decorating the hall.
inally, everyone is invited to turn out and
see the greatest rally of the campaign in
