The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-02-23

Warren l.. Turner, musical director of
the Falstaff Club, was the accompanist.
Scarcely had the last strains of the finale
rendered by the Falstaff Banjo Club ceased
when the floor director and his aids were
busy removing the chairs and clearing the
floor for dancing. 1t was but a few mo-
ments before the grand march was formed
in the rear hall and to the music of Lin
toms Orchestra the ball was opened. The
grand march, led by Mr.. and Mrs w. K.
Andrews, and the participants presented a
very pretty sight as they passed through a
number Of intricate figures.
The dance orders contained eighteen
numbers appropriately dedicated, and
were pretty souvenirs OF the truly happy
occasion. 1t was after o'clock before the
strains of the "Home, Sweet Home" re-
minded the dancers that the first grand
ball of the Shertenberg g. Robinson Mutual
Relief Association was thing of pleasant
memories.
During the intermission an excellent
collation. was served by Marchetti.
