Thanksgiving was spent in Middletown
according to the taste of the people. The
schools and banks we're closed, some of
the stores all day and others from 12
O'Clock. Not few with dog and gun gave

the day comes but once year. The shief
feature was the drama and supper at the
Opera House, which always proves a
drawing card.
