boat of that company's fleet. the steamer

been able to boast of many such. days as
that of yesterday, and had the weather
been made to order it could not have
been improved upon in any way. The
sun was just warm enough and the
breeze light enough to make the upper
decks the most agreeable part OF the
boat, and never before have the green,
Islands of Casco Bay appeared to better
advantage than they did yesterday when
viewed under the most favorable con-
ditions by the visiting delegates OF the
State Board of Trade.
