anil the Coronation address WEIR deliv-
cred by A. s. Hughes, Esq, of Martins
burg, who performed his duty in the
most graceful manner.
The Shepherd Fire Department were
present in uniform, with their hand
some engine shining in dazzling bril-
liancy. The Keedysville and Shepherds
town Cornet Bands and Capt. Dun
more's brass band furnished most ex-
cellent music.
There was a public auction later in
the day, at which were sold stock, &C.,
in considerable numbers. The exhibit
ors of machinery also did good BUSH
ness i'm taking orders for their goods.
In addition to the immense number
of visitors from this town ard vicinity,
there were many present from Berkeley
county and Maryland including promi-
nent gentlemen from Hagerstown,
Frederick, Martinsburg, Charlestown
and other points. All united in pro-
nouncing the exhibition most success
full one and the opinion was expressed
that this was the beginning of what
should be vast yearly exhibition for the
farmers and business men of the Shen-
andoah Valley. That the occasion was
an enjoyable one was evidenced by the
fact that many from a distance who
were at the first days exhibition re-
turned on Thursday also. Every one
present seemed to be pleased-visitors
as well as exhibitors-and those who
can will undoubtedly come again next
year.
TO sum up the whole matter, and not
speaking extravagantly, it can be said
that the exhibition was grand success,
and sufficient encouragement has been
granted to warrant the hope that Nor
gan g Grove will become known as well
and as tavorably in Shenandoah Valley
as is Williams Grove in the Cumber-
land Valley.
