coming from town and up the roa d
they came, then there WAS a hustle
and hustle in the School house.
"Thev're comiug," They're coming"
WAS the cry from everybody. When
they came they were met at the
door by the ushers and kindly vel,
coined in. They said that they knew
that they were welcome, because be-
fore they came to the door they SAW
the stove sitting there, and the fire
was burning brightly and the pot
was on.

Everybody had plenty to eat and
drink. Alter they got through eat
ing, such a hand shaking and kissing
YOU never saw. Everybody was try
ing to make themselves acquainted
with everybody, and, l believe they
did. After which they sang, God
be with us until we meet again;
Each one gathered up boquet of
flowers to remember this occasion,
and rolled and tumhlOd into their
wagons and started for town.
The shouts and cheers that they
made-you might think was enough
to make the old Rock" tremble
They passed to their quiet homes,
but not to forget the "Rally," which
will be long remembered by this vi
