 The fair for the benefit of St. Mary's church, Lakeville, opened on Tuesday eve ming, Nov. 1st, at St. Mary's hall. As the affair was to open with supper, the tables through the spacious hall were arranged in a tasteful manner, and reflected credit on all concerned. A ball followed, in the enjoyment of which many participated. Some very costly articles have been donated by the patrons of the fair. Among the articles to be voted on, is gold headed cane and gold watch. The competitors for the cane are Mr. chr c. 4 A1 o4oI, Miss Lizzie Fitzgerald of Canaan, and Miss E. Boyle, of Lakeville.
