great success. 1t is estimated that there were
from 1000 to 5000 people on the ground. Tho
day was splendid with cloudless sky and u
bracing air, such as can only be found on the
Green mountains. People began to arrive as
early AS six o'clock \. NJ, and at nine o'clock
every road leading to the village was blocked
with wagons and vehicles of every description
loaded with human freight. At II o'clock,
upon the arrival of eX-Gov. Smith and Hon.
j. NJ. Tyler, and the Chester and Andover
delegations, accompaniodby the Chester band,
who were escorted in by the Londonderry and
Weston bands, which had previously arrived,
the streets were completely blockaded, and it
was full half hour before the rear teams
could reach the hotel. Every business house
and numbers of private residences were deco
rated with Garfield and Arthur flags, the en-
tire length of Main street presenting gala
appearance seldom if ever before seen. The
efficient marshals, under their interchangeable
chief, j. G.. Martin, were everywhere present,
conducting and guiding amid the chaos.
Promptly at l o'clock, the street being now
literally iammed from Chase's store to the
postoffice, amid the booming of cannon and
an upturned sea of faces, a large and beautiful
flag, bearing the names of Garfield and Arthur,
was thrown to the breeze. Prof. Markham,
assisted by our local talent, rendered the Star
Spangled Banner the Londonderry band fol-
lowing with the same piece then, after three
hearty cheers had been given for the old flag,
the line of march was taken up for the grove.
The commodious stand was filled with the
speakers and representative men of this sec
ton.
Hon. j. NJ. Tyler was first introduced by
Hon. j. L. Martini president of the day Mr..
Tyler said that he expected to find good
audience, but he did not expect to talk to peo-
pie by the acre. He then proceeded with an
able discussion of the issues of the day, fire.
quently interrupted with applause. Ex-Gov.
Smith was next introduced, who made fore
ible and augumentatve address and after
him came short and stirring speeches from
Hons. A. L. Miner and Loyeland Munson of
Manchester Col. l.. X, Fuller and Hon. b.
d. Harris of Brattleboro, and Major Rounds
of Chester and not until half past O'Clock
did the vast assemblage break up.
The speakers were listened to most Rtten-
lively, hundreds standing up and crowdng as
near the stage as possible The three bands
present enlivened the meeting with excellent
and inspiring music e.
