an evening parade over to the village and re
quested the patriotic people to make such
display as the Fourth of July would usually

airy way of doing everything up to the letter.
The elements, however, were against us aud
we could not carry out our part as we had
planned. This year, if the weather is fine, we
will come over and see you on the afternoon
of July 18th. We assure you that the stars
and stripes are always a welcome sight to a
veteran and we hope to see the usual decora-

Morrisville and adjoining towns to attend
our free camp fire on the evening of July 4th
on the Fair Grounds.
