with old Sol, and twinkle in his
eye, to the qualification of the COM
mittees in charge and the citizens
of our little CITY in general, for clear
and favorable weather meant for the
celebration of the fret battle of the
Revolution, fought at Point Pleas
ant on October 10Th, 1774, between
the whites under command of Col
onel Charles Lewis, and the In
dians, unbounded and unpreoedent-

The committees in charge of

great battle, have been earnest
workers 10 accomplish this end,
and deserve much credit for their
untiring efforts,
The genial Marshal-in chief,
Colonel j. P. r. B. Smith and his
assistants, handled the big parade
which was formed in the fret ward
in manner creditable 10 a general
with an army of a 100000.
In the parade was representa-
ton of all our business people, the
children of our public schools turn
ing out in full, dressed in nation
al colors, companies of horsemen,
the FIRE department the hook and
ladder company, and everything
and everybody to mako up grand
trade display which has never be-

To say the town was gala deoo-
rated with bunting, flags, 60, is
not necessary. for the emblem of
our great nation was never so pro-
fusely displayed us on this COCA

The Park at the confluence of
the Ohio and Kanawha rivers
where the monument to oommem-
crate this great battle will be
erected, has been put in the best
proper shape, and was thronged
with visitors and sightseers throu-
ghout the day.
The old house, considerably
over hundred years old, which
was converted into museum and
filled with relics, was the most in
teresting feature of the occasion.
The ladies in charge of the
museum are commented by our
oitizens and visitors upon the man
ner in which this "relio store" was
conducted, and the oourtesies 40
corded all.
A collection of relics, such as
Indian implements of warfare, old
pictures, dishes. dresses, jewelry
and many other articles too num-
erous to mention, are not seen by
one generation more than once,
and one who missed this treat is at
loss to know or conceive the man
ner in which these old settlers
lived and had their being. Bands
of music delighted the visitors and

moro plentiful this Fall than ever
known. Some rabbits have already
been killed but this is very early
and hunters run the chance of get
ting them when they are unfit to
eat. Quail cannot be killed legally
until November Hrst and everyone
should be on the lookout for the

orderly, we'll behaved and jolly,
No congregation of human beings
had more joyous time for one
day, than did this one.
After the parade. which moved
at noon, and which was unsur-
passed as a trades display in this
place, had disbanded and the
throng of people had dined, the
speaking at the Park began.
Hon. Chas e Hogg, one of
West Virginia's most eloquent
orators, had charge of the oeremo-
MES at the speakers stand, and his
Introductory remarks were we'll re-
oeived. Mr.. Hogg never fails to
please and enligh'en his hearers,
and at the conclusion of his re-
marks introduced Mrs, Judge Pof-
fenbarger, who opened the speak
ing with an address listened to by
the throng of people with marked
attention, and which was eloquent
ana ln5CruOtlYe.
Col. Bennett Young, of Jefferson
county, Kentucky, member of Con.
gress from his district, was intro
duoed. and to say his address was
eloquent, logical and interesting, is
but a trife, for the marked atten-
tion of his hearers was undisturbed,
He is a fluent speaker and one
would never tire listening to him,
Next to be introduced was Mr..
Lewis Reed Campbell, who reoited
beautiful poem entitled "Our
Heroes" This was one of the most
beautiful, and being prepared as it
was, only few hours before the
hour for delivery, places our young
friend at the maximum. The man.
ner in which this beautiful poem
was delivered was pleasing in the
extreme and delighted the immense
crowd who listened with marked
attention In poetioal delibera-
tions Lewis has few il no superiors.
Gen. Chas. n. GrosYenor, of
Ohio, was next introduced, who
made, as all know, an address SEQ
ond to none. The General is one
of Ohio's influential and honest
sons, and when he appeared on the
speakers stand, smile of pleasure
and qualification covered every face
in the audience, General Grosven-
or's remarka were listened to atten-
lively, and his eulogy to our mar.
tyred President, was pathetic.
