FROM SULLIVAN.
Acknowledgment.

A large surprise party gathered at our
residence on Friday evening, numbering
about eighty, accompanied by the Sullivan
Cornet Band, to give Us . goodbye memo
rizer. And never was surprise more complete,
as 1t was nearly IL o'clock before I got home,
having been away on business.
We wish to express our gratitude to our
many friends for this kind manifestation Of
good will and friendship, and, be assured, 1t
is heartily appreciated and all the more so
from the fact that 1t so richly proves to us
that our earnest efforts TO live in this COM
munity in such q way that 1t should not be
made worse by our presence, II not bettered,
is felt to be fact by our friends; and,
although in the near future distance may
intervene between us, yet we sincerely hope
our memories may still mingle in the same
kind fellowship of the past. Very many
thanks are due our fine Band for their en-
ivening music, and, consequently. enhanced
entertainment of such pleasant gathering.
Yours, truly, R. NJ. CLOSE AND FAMILY.
IMr. Close removes with his family to
Oberlin, and, after staying long enough
for his children to receive an education,
will remove to Elk County, Kansas. We
are sure he will carry with him the good
wishes of al who know him.-ED.

Lorain County Soldiers and Sailors
Reunion
co.dsn.edt.Sm me oSe.,,D new,

The Third Annual Reunion of the
Soldiers and Sailors Association was
held on Tappan Square on Wednesday,
Aug. 10. 81 I .yDd - lJ-iG adE
The day was all that could be desir ed
and the large crowd in attendance was
in pleasant mood. Five brass bands
and one martial band kept the peoples
ears ringing with music. The local
committee of arrangements had made
ample preparations for the entertain
ment and comfort of visitors.
A platform large enough to seat fifty
persons was erected on the east side of
old Tappan Hall, with seats in front.
1t was nearly eleven o'clock when
the Assembly. was; called to order by
w. II. Bryant, Of North Amherst, tn e
President of the, Association. Rev. J..
F. Brart, of Oberlin, officiated as Chap
lain and offered prayer. An earnest
Address of Welcome was delivered by
Rev. VIM. Kncaid, of Oberlin, to which
President Bryant made a brief re-
sponse.
A business meeting of the Association
was then held, and . committee appoint-
ed to raise funds TO defray the expenses
of the meeting. Tho session was then
closed, and after listening to music by
the bands, the officers, speakers, SOL
diers, their wives, children, and friends,
we've shown to the well laden tables in
the grove near the northeastern corner
of the square, where, after blessing
had been invoked by Rev. G.. W. Mead,
of Oberlin, they were supplied with q
bountiful dinner, prepared by the citi-
zens of Oberlin and Russia Township,
an efficient corps of oberlin ladies being
in attendance to dispense this free hos
pitality.
At P. M, the five bands of music
present arranged in circular form, with
the drummers in the center, and played
several tunes in concert, after which
Mr.. L. L. Crane, Chairman of the COM
mittee on time and place for the next
meeting, reported that no applications
had been received except from Roches-
ter Township, and no decision had been
made. On motion the whole matter
was referred to the executive commit
tee.
Gen. Ed. s. Meyer, of Cleveland,
who was expected to deliver the leading
address, not having arrived, the ten
minute speeches on the programme
were called for. These were of an in
teresting character, full of stirring
"reminiscences, and the old time war
spirit and patriotism.
About three O'Clock a message from
Gen. Meyer, explaining his absence,
was read, and after passing resolutions
of fraternel sympathy and thanks the
meeting adjourned.
There was an abundance of music
interspersed with the exercises, fur
nished by the Oberlin, Henrietta, Cam
den, Sullivan and Amherst cornet
bands, and the Brighton Martial Band
with Hugh Mosier, the original of VIII
