the convention such as would warrant it
in making a change So far as is known

ward as a candidate for the convention in
1899 that Is with the aforesaid induce
ments, and the probability is that 1t will
be again held on Tybee.

have been prepared to serve as souvenirs
of the occasion, and the usual delicacies
