From an aesthetic and epicurian view
the Banquet was all that could be desired
Every article on the bill of fare was served
in the most approved style. Mine host
Mcintyre did the National Hotel great
credit, and it is the general opinion of the
participants that the feast has never been
equalled in Middletown and seldom sur.
passed in the cities.
No little credit is due the most faithful
and untiring services of the Lodge Com
mittes. Messrs. W. 8. Lstherbury. Joseph
G. Jolls and William Brockson. They saw
that no guest wanted for any thing,
supplementing the efforts of Mr.. Nc
Intire to make the occasion one Of mem.
orable pleasure. The menu cards gotten
up BY the committee were emblsmaticsl of
the occasion and attractive specimens Of
the printers art, and were taken home by
the guests as souvenirs of the occasion.
