A BIRTHDAY SURPRISE

The friends and neigh bors of Albert Walker
secretly agreed to give Albert surprise upon the
occasion OF his birthday, which was on the 9Th Of
May The good ladies prepared a large supply of
eatebles The services Of the Osuaburgh band
were procured. The parties leaving 0snaburgh
were led by the band and Joined by the immedi.
ate friends and neighbors, The surprise WAS com
plete, as Albert was plowIng in the field. But va
thought his genial Gountenance evinced more
pleasure than surprise as he sat upon his horse
while his friends filed passed. He soon Joined us
however, and there was great time of shaking
hands and pleasant greetings The band played
their best and did we'll. The men constructed a
large table on natures green carpet under those
beautiful ample trees which were covered with
bloom. The ladies loaded the table with the
good things which their dett hands had prepared
TO such an extent that break down seemed in
evitabe At the sound ofthe bell the band struck
up lively piece, playing as they led the way to
the table, and the way the band boys can put
away chicken and sweet cakes beats ALL We
would like 10 have seen what the party did with
his pile that blows the bass drum. AS the band
played after supper and we failed to hear the
drum we concluded that the party that blows u
had 1t lied with part of his pile OF sweet cakes
better spread we never saw and better time
one would not wish Abert's birthday numbered
thirty seven, and the number OF friends that
came TO celebrate the occasion with him were
siXty-seven. May he have many returns.
