Butte society has been saddened this
week by the departure of two Of it's most
popular members, Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. j.
Cornell, who left on Sunday last for a
years trip abroad. On their return they
will probably make their future home in
Los Angeles, Cal. They are accompanied
by Mrs. Connell's mother, Mrs. Keene,
who during her residence in Butte has
made man, close friends. The Connell
home has been the scene of nan of the
most delightful social functions ever
undertaken in Butte. No home has been
more h~ospitable, it's doors being ever open
to their many friends. Mrs. Council is
a most charming and accomplished host
ess and no n contributed more to the
social life of Butte. Their departure is
sadly regretted by their hosts of friends.
whose best wishes follow them wherever
they may be, and who hope they nay
decide to again make Butte their home.
