Over one hundred were present,
| among whom were many Of the EN-.

summoned to the large dining room

After the company were seated at the
tables, Hon. L. II. King arose and
turning to Mr. and Mrs. league pro-
ceeded to address them as follows:
Mr.. and Mrs. league Dame For

silvery voice aud golden, flattering
tongue, has induced you to leave this,
the home of your childhood, your
youth and mature years, where the |
ties Of friendship that have been FORM |
ed are such as you can hardly. reason
ably expect, under the most favorable |
circumstances, and i'm the most favored !
spot, TO form elsewhere in later years.
These, your numerous neighbOrs and |
friends, and these railroad Off Gals and
employees. with whom, by your off,

for your future prosperity and it is
my happy lot. in their behalf, to pre-
sent to you the gifts, which valuable,
elegant, and beautiful, as they are, are
but an Inadequate expression of their
esteem for you, As citizens, neighbOrs

memento of their friendship and their
love. Take them with you, to your
new home in the west, as certificate
from your old associates to the new, of
the esteem to which you are entitled.
And may they ever serve as q constant
of the desire of the donors to

sisted Of an elegant silver Ice Pitcher,
Salver and two gOblets. Mr.. ID. 8.
on behalf of the "boys of
the n. b. railroad" then came forward
and In few appropriate and feeling
words, presented a splendid Cake Bas-
ket. Mr.. league responded to this

On the part Of his neighbOrs and asso-
GATES, saying In substance, ~ find
myself unable to respond in fitting
words, to this most kind and generous
of your good will to-
ward us. W. accept these beautiful pres.
.nts. ana shall cherish them not only
Tor their intrinsic value. but for the
richer value of the friendship of which
hey are the tokens" After q

he ladies of the village, and In part ,
~ the liberal host of the Caribou
House, dancing and music were In or
Ter until the wee small hours of morn

Enjoyment Of the evening Mr.. d. en- ,
ertained and delighted the crowd BY
inging several songs in q manner
which would have done credit to a
Jones' Band furnished
