Daily tobacco leaf-chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1890-1895, 1890-11-19

scene Of l0veliness rare indeed. The
Dunlop residence last night presented
picture that would have inspired
the poets pen to flights of eloqEence
equally as beautiful had he witnessed
it.
The occasion was that of a recep-
tion rendered 10. p. Dunlop and
wife by Mrs. Matte Dunlop at her
beautiful suburban home.
Miss Sadie Dunlop presided as hos
tess and she was assisted by Miss
Williams, Of Henderson, KY, and
Misses Louise Beaumont and Maggie
Daniel, of this city. Many of the
local society members were present,
and the palatial residence was crowd
ed with the guests who were all
made to feel at home.
The rooms were deliberately
and artistically decorated with
chrysanthemums, the fayorite
flower, and evergreens. Wherever
either could be placed with tasty eff
feet there it could be found. Chrysan-
themums were wreathed around the
bannisters, interspersed here and
there with twigs of evergreens,
while graceful palms nodded from
various recesses, the whole making
one think of a flower garden rather
than residence. Supper was
served from 10 to IL o'clock,
and the dining room was no less
deliberately decorated than were the
parlors. In the center of the room
was a large table which contained
upon its center swan, made of pure
white chrysanthemums, resting upon
the bosom of miniature lake
Around this table were smaller ones,
upon which the supper was spread
and around which the guests gathered
and feasted to their satisfaction.
One might continue indefinitely in
an attempt to describe the event and
its attendant pleasures. Suffice it to
say that it was one of the most ele-
giant OF the season, and was enjoyed
by an unusually large crowd.
