saloon or other place of public resort,
the money rendered in paying was
gently declined with the remark:
"Please pay next time" The entire
party OF ladies and gentlemen were
met In this liberal spirit everywhere
and nothing was spared to make all
the visitors feel at home. They were
the welcomed quests of the people of
Monroe and were treated royalty in
every respect. Under the circumstan,
stances, the young men from Shreve. |
