Am Enjoyable Hop.

Quite a select and successful dance was
held at Mr.. Chas Hibberd's, one mile from
New Windsor, on last Friday evening, Feb
10th. The many young couples from dis
lance and few from the village and sur
rounding country spent a most enjoyable
evening. The soft strains of excellent music
foated through the spacious parlors about 8
o'clock and the floor was soon filled with
happy young people, who glided gracefully
through the eigteen dances, which constituted
the programme. The last dance was finished
about l clock, much to the regret of those
who participated. Much of the success of the
evening was due to the excellent management
of the director, Mr.. Joseph Englar.
