certainly not the one who, as Mr.. Silver says,
was about IS 40 years old in 1872 Justice of

1905. James Steel-prObably the same-was
Justice Of the Peace and of the Levy Court
in March, 1870. and held the same Office four
years later.

who lent helping hand towards making the
evenings entertainment pleasant one. There
was an abundance OF good things-cakes, can
dies nuts and fruits being distributed through
out the audience. The exercises consisted OF
reading, recitatlons and select singing, all of
which showed that much care had boon taken
to make the affair a success. The recitations of
the Misses Gilbert, Walker, Carroll, and Miss
Maggie Moore being particularly fine. The
solos OF Miss Gilbert and Miss Walker were finely
rendered, and surpassed the expectations of all
present The presentation of a gingerbread
horse to J. Crawford Thompson, by Mrs. Charl-
ton. proved the hit of the evening, and created
much applause. | understand Crawford has a
horse for sale now. Miss Grace Thompson. the
organist, presided during the services. and re-
ceived an elegant silver cake basket. from the
ladies and friends Of the congregation. The pro-
Rramme was conducted by Mr.. w. s. Walker

besides all that an almanac should contain, q

very pretty little monthly calendar, the figures
being printed in largesized type.
