A gay party of Milbankers
drove over to Hartford Tuesday,
on a fishing excursion, but as
the lake was not propitious for
fishing the lads turned the affair
into swimming party.
| A syndicate, composed of some
twenty or thirty business men
and others of Milbank and Will
mot have recently purchased
some thirty five acres of shore
property on Big Stone lake at
the Mereau farm, few miles
south east of Hartford, which
they intend to convert into a
place for summer outings.
/ The memorial sermon will be
preached by the Rev. Fitch on
Sunday, May %, at 1870 a. M,
at the Congregational church.
Let every old soldier attend and
everybody else He will not
only remember those who went
forth to preserve the union in
81 and '65, but will remembe-'
those who are going to battle
for their country now. Post
and relief corps VIII meet at
their respective halls in time to
march in body to the church.
COMMITTEE.
The Lyceum Theatre Co., gave
three good entertainments
at the opera hall Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday evenings.
The company were in poor luck
striking the town at the time
they did, there having been a
show every night last week, and
the weather also being unpro-
pitious for them. Their per
formances, however, deserved a
good packed house each evening.
They are good actors and all
ladies and gentlemen. Chas
Besnah in his specialties was
very good They are as genial
and pleasant troupe as we have
had the pleasure of meeting,
and we hope they may visit the
town again at more favorable
season. Ashton Chronicle.
