garbed in their sober dark Sabbath clothes In
the forenoon the people-al good people-had re-

o'clock in the afternoon they sat down to a royal,
old-fashioned Thanksgiving dinner. with turkey at
the head of the table chicken pie and pumpkin,
apple and mince pies; at o'clock In the evening the

strung about them-on the many high hills about
the town They burned about 100 barrels In this
way this year. Sometimes they have as many as
15o0 barrels. The whole country about Norwich
was brightly lighted with these bonires. and the
