tect the interest Of the oystermen il prop
erly enforced,
Resoi0cd. That we protest against the
leasing of any part or parcel OF the bot
tom of the Chesapeake Bay to any per-
son, corporation or syndicate. as we be-
lieve that such step would be the be-
ginning of a fatal ending of the oyster
industry of the State and work a great
hardship upon the people. Therefore we
appoint the following committee TO wait
upon the Legislature to express our wishes !:
John Frank, Albert Parkinson, Ezekiel
Mitchell. Charles Springer. Thos. Sher-
lock, Peter Parkinson, Semon Bailey.

assuming manner. with An air OF sincerity
which pervades ell she says and does,
could not fail to draw around her large
circle of admiTing friends. and popular
following. Mrs. Smiths position month
or so ago was a very trying one, and
certainly unenvisble. Society was con-
trasting the new Governors wife with the
much beloved wife of the retiring Gov
ernor, and society is not always kind in
rendering its decisions by way of CON-
parison or contrast. Mrs. Smith. how
ever, has not suffered at society's hands.
and has made most favorable impress
ion, which will be lasting.
