| After the psrade was finished, the companies
passed the Chief Marshal in review and then
broke from the line. 1t was 10 30 O'Clock, and
the march had lasted two and half he urs.
The procession had been twenty-five minutes
passing given point. The visiting companies
were treated to COLLATION., of the same nature
as that stated above-that is, those who had
time before their trains left-and then they
departed for home.
1t had been proposed by the Pioneers to
treat the Bangor League to second collation.
at the close of the parade, but with them also
the hour was so late that they had barely time
to catch the train for home. The Pioneers
however were not to be cheated out OF their
supper, and so their old friends, the Continen-
tails of Ferry Village were invited to join in
with them. The Cape boys who were hungry
with their long march, were not slow in ac-
cepting and were escorted to the hall. Not
withs,anding the bountiful supper which had
been served the first of the evening, the ta-
bles were fully supplied with food and the hun
cry boys did ample justice TO the viands. The
Young Ladies' Pioneer Club again acted as
mattresses. and added another to the long list
Of favors which they have shown to the PIo-
neers. After doing ample justice to the Vi
ands, the Continentals were escorted to the
Ferry.
The Bangor League was escorted to the
Maine Central depot by Col. John D. Prinds-
BILE and staff, the Bangor Band playing "Auld
Lang Syne." At the station many parting
sAlntations we're exchanged between the escort
aud their guests Col. Hamlin assuring the
Portland companies of welcome reception
should they visit his city.
