Sunday was the SEVENTEEN anniversary
of the birth of Gen. Olney A. Arnold, and
in accordance with his custom for some
years past he was "at home' last evening
to his friends. The mansion on Broad
street was lighted from top to bottom,
and presented n pleasing and striking
spectacle, standing back rs it does some
distance from the street Gen. Arnold
announced that he would receive his
friends from TO 10 T.. NJ, and long be-
fore the last-named hour the apartments
of the mansion were more than comforta-
bly, filed proving that the host had not
fallen off in the number of his friends
during the past year. His Excellency,
Gov. Ladd, was present, also ex-Mayor
Goodwin, and n number of people from
the Universalist Club of Boston, besides
many prominent people OF Pawtucket and
vicinity.
EVERYBODY was welcome, and everybody
was made To feel ut home, and If they
didn't IL was the fault of no one but them
selves. A bountiful collation. was pre-
pared and remained in readiness the en-
tire evening TO suit the convenience or dis
position of the guests, and If any one went
without food and drink he did SO OF his
own free will. During the evening Gen.
Arnold was made happy by the presenta-
tion of a handsome bouquet of flowers by
Misses Clara Ellis, Sadie Berry. Maude
Whipple and Mabel Smith of the BUSY
Bees" of the Universalist Church. His
pleasure was further enhanced by the
reading of an original poem by Mrs. Eliza
beth B. Chace, read by John G. Wyman.
Taken altogether the evening was one of
pleasure and profit To hosts and guests
alike.
