The Scots, whose 'faythers" bled VII
Wallace, and who are 'prood o. Robin"
gathered at the Continental last Monday
night to do honor to the memory of "Rob-
| bic Burns" on the occasion of the anniver-
sary of his birthday. There was many q
''braw Scot" and ''bonny lassie" present,
and many's the "gude ward" that winged
its fight toward the land where ''Ropbie''
dwells.
The tender words that Burns left behind
him as legacy to the world to bring the
men of all nations in touch were told over
and over again during the night, and some
times babe the tears unconscious start in
memory of the man who while the sweet
est singer of his nation, died the death of a
dog, in the midst of plenty and riches.
The entertainment was distinctly Scot
fish in all its essentials, from song to menu,
and even Governor Thomas felt called

scent in responding to a toast. Some of
