the great mass of moving humanity, we
met four Marietta people-Mr. Frank M.
Boston and bride, (nee Miss Fleta Trans
NELL and Lieut.. Harry Cole and sister,
Miss Mary Cole. 1t was real treat to see
familiar faces and hear their voices. Miss
Cole tor the past two months has been
visiting her sister, Mrs Emmons, at Quin~
cy, Ill. She had previously visited the
Fair, but her brother, Lieut.. Cole having
been placed in command of the columbian
Guards, she availed herself of the oppor>
tunity to make the second visit in order to
see her brother. She will return to Quincy,
where she will remain sometime yet before
returning to Marietta.
