seemed I'm fine health and spirits. He was
importuned for a speech. but declined.
From what can be learned the President

gone down before his unerring gun.
Although the storm, which has been
raging along the coast with great ferocIty,
interfered with the sport. the party. IL is
understood, had no unpleasant experiences
and were at no time in serious danger.
Mr.. Cleveland is very popular among the
natives along the coast and they fiocked
into town as soon as 1t was known that the
Violet had arrived.
The presidential party left at o'clock
on a special on the Norfolk & Southern
railway for Berkley. Va. where Mr.. Cleve-
land is to be met by the lighthouse tender
Maple, which will convey the party to
Washington. The Maple is expected TO
