A complimentary benefit, gracefully
rendered, was given the Union society
here last Friday by our friends of the
Pond district, Lyme, mostly of the
Hall and Chase persuasion. Prof. La
Vale, their guest and tutor, conduct
ed. and Boston Oliver of symphony
fame was here with his violin. Chase
of West Newton came up with two
sons, violin and flute, and daughter
Agnes, who with cousin Sallie, was
eXuuisitely matched and the same of
the boys. Ladies Mayo, Carr and
Murfey were heard with the same old
admiration, and Gale of Newbury was
chief basso. Madame Chase, grand
mother of this happy genealogy, hon.
ored the occasion by her presence.
After the concert, strength was rein
forced, worthy the occasion, from a
table at Jaquith's furnished in part by
our ladies. The proceeds were above
thirty dollars. We feel proud in be.
ing remembered by the Prof. and his
friends. Mr.. Jaquith shares largely in
these honors for projecting an enter
tainment enjoyed by so many. This
happy evening was heightened out by
pleasant dreams.
The railroad company has hoisted up
