Bridgton.
Bridgton, May 90. Monday night was the
| occasion of the largest gathering of Odd
Fellows ever seen in this village. The
weather was very unfavorable after five
O'Clock p. M, raining hard about all the
time, but notwithstanding that a large
number gathered from Denmark, Harri
son, Lowell and Fryeburg and some were
even present from Steuben and Stowe.
| The Norway Degree Staff, which is gen
orally acknowledged to be the best in the
state, came by Invitation to work the
second and third degree for Cumberland
Lodge. Supper was served from six to
T. 30 to about two hundred members of
the order in the banquet hall over the
Odd Fellows Hall, and at about o'clock
the large hall was crowded to witness the
work, which was in the inimitable style
for which the Norway brothers are noted
Wires were run across the square from
Pondicherry Mill to the Hall and the
work was thereby much beautified. Two
candidates received the third and one the
second degree. The Odd Fellows stable,
just completed on Depot street. proved
to be all too small to hold the teams of
visiting brothers. Among lodge members
and others from out of town may be
mentioned: F. II. Hazelton, ESQ.,, OF
Portland; A. q. r. Pike, of Norway and
others. Bridgton cadet band discoursed
| fine music for the edifcation of the Wis
itors during the supper. 1t was an oc-
casion long to be remembered in Bridg-
| ton.
