LIMAvILLE. o., Nov. 6, 1893.
The meeting OF the KniR hts of the Mac
cabees Friday evening was a grand Auc.
cess in every particular. Such an out.
touring of people have not visited our
town for many years. Delegations from
Alliance, Marlboro, Randolph, Atwater
and DeeTtleld were in attendance. The
meeting was called to order by ]. W. Mar
sal, chairman. J, <. Porter led In
prayer. The music was furnished by the
Rockhill orchestra, which was very APP
propriAte for the occasion. Several beau
siful songs by two little girls were well
rendered, aud brought forth much COM
mept. The German Sir knights Of Alli-
snce sang several good songs for the Sir
KoiShts in secret session. The Sir Knights
Of Ltmaville desire TO say that their songs
would have been highly appreciated by
toe audience, Rad they been aware of
tasir presence, and especially had they
known they were singers. An apology
vas made. The welcoming address was
delivered by c. W. Paxson. His remarks
were quite interesting, and the Sir
Knights of LimAville may feel highly
complimented for his uutiripg energy in
the success of their wonderful meeting.
The fret speaker introduced was Sir
Knight Ed. l.. Young, OF Norwalk, the
Great Record Keeper of Ohio. Sir
Knight YounR's remarks were based upon
the fraternal advantages OF Maccabeeism,
The Sir Knights and the people generally
were we'll pleased with his speech. The
people we're very attentive and anxious
70 catch every word, he so thoroughly
explained the many advantages to men
where they belong to a fEaternal order,
The people of Limaville may well feel
proud of themselves for securing a man
like Sir Knight Young, one who Is so
thoroughly posted on the issues of Maccs-
beeism. Sir Knight Young is q man of
pleasing address, and can always hold an
audience with his wonderful magnetism,
aud with a man like Sir KuiRht Young a;
the head OF Il great order like the MaccAS
bees will certainly bs crowned with suc-
cess.
Sir Knight C. C. Bow, of Canton, was
next introduced. He spoke as length Of
the importance of maternal order. Sir
Knight Bow related several instances
where by personal observation, made 1t
very impressive and clearly demonstrated
the necessity of the usefulness OF Macca-
beeism in time OF need. He said many
good things in the interest Of the order.
The audience was highly pleased with his
remarks,
Mrs. Leonard, of Elyria, o., was next
introduced as one Of the StateL o. T. NJ.
organizers. Her remarks were based upon
the interest OF the ladies. She spoke very
entertainly upon this subj ct; she briefly
stated whereby the ladies were benefited
by belonging TO the L. o. L. NJ. It's the
only order for the ladies Ia which an in
surence or an endowment policy is car.
ried. II is hoped that In the near future
that an auxiliary order of this kind may
be ias!iGuted in this place. Many promi-
rent MAcabees from the various tents oc-
cupied seats upon the stage. The hall
presented q magnificent appearance;
decorations were very becoming and al
traciive for the occasion. Tne Sir Knights
- Al gI.g n
iouS work deserve special praise for their
energy. The most laughable
and novel idea wss the riding of tue goat
which almost brought the house into con-
WILSON'S. II showed to those who thought
that the goat story was all fake as being
untrue the real genuine goat was there.
They are satisfled beyond a reasonable
doubt that the goat story 10 not f1ctitius.
All those who attended speak very highly
Of the affair.
