We have a Boston paper before us con-
tanning an account of the Richardson
Dickinson reception, given at the parlors
of Berkeley Temple. The guests were re-
ceived by Rev. and Mrs. G. A. Dickinson,
the parents of the bride, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Richardson, the parents of the groom. A
large company were present, showing the
high esteem in which the young people are
held. The groom is highly spoken of as a
promising young lawyer of Boston.
Lovers of choice flowers would enjoy a
stroll through the gardens of Rev. G. A.
Dickinson and of Mr.. Temple, adjoining.
1t seems late in the season to see roses in
and among them an apple tree, also in
bloom, for variety, we suppose. Doubtless
the owners of the flowers enjoy them none
the less for their generosity with them. If
one is fortunate enough to get glimpse
inside the cottages he will feel well repaid
for quite a journey. The Dickinson cot
tage is closed fer the season, but the
Temples will remain for some time to
enjoy the autumn glory.
Joseph NJ Russell, who died in Maiden,
Mass, Monday, was born in this town in
1919. When a young man he went to
Boston. After living in that city seven
years he was for five years engaged in the
hotel business in Brooklyn, n. Y. For
over 80 years he has lived in Maiden, and
his business has been that of a music pub
Usher in Boston. He has taken an active
part in the affairs of Maiden, he served as
member of the first board of aldermen, and
for several terms thereafter He had also
been a member of the legislature. Last
year he was prominently mentioned as a
candidate for mayor on the independent
ticket, which won. He leaves wife and
two children.
The annual meeting of the Social Libra
ry association was held Tuesday, when the
officers of last year were reelected. The
reports presented showed a large degree of
prosperity, and much encouragement for
the year to come. There is a larger MEM
bership than ever before and more books
per member have been taken than at any
time since the society was started. The
faces of several who have always shown
active interest were missed at the meeting,
but it is hoped that they were enjoying
greater educational facilities at the Worlds
Fair, where they have gone. New books
will soon be bought, so that the coming
long evenings may be pro6tAbly used, and
it is hoped that delinquents will take
notice and pay the dues which will entitle
them to the use of the books.
