.fhe action of Father Thebault,
last Friday, in ordering the Greig
Cornet band to put out the lights
and move from the stand, and sta
ting that hereafter. no concerts

sed the people to criticized his ar
bitrary measure most severely.
This church square is public
place that belong to the people,

legs of using it for all innocent

A Meeting of a Scottish Clan.

Yesterday afternoon at the spacious
farm house of the Coulthard home
stead IN honor of the S9th birthday Of
Robert l.. Coulthard, the founder OF
the American branch of the family,
ninety-three of his lineal descendants
assembled and had q most delightful
gathering With the exception OF
about half a dozen persons all there
were of the COnlthard family by birth
or marriage. Four generations were
represented, the youngest being the
twin children of Hugh Coulthard.
aged three months.
Father Coulthard was hale and very
happy and moved around among his
descendants the happiest of them all
Seven of his sons and his only dauph
ter. Mrs Richardson, were at the
gathering Ono son. Robert, who is
unmarried and lives in Colorado was
unable to Ge there.
Shortly after the noon hour the
friends began TO arrive and by a
o'clock the driveway, the grove sur
rounding the house and the stable
yard was filled with tat, sleek driving
horses and vehicles of all sorts from
the comfortable two seated surry to
the most modern trap The shady
lawn was filled with jolly crowd of
all ages, who proceeded to make them
selves comfortable in true picnic style.
and merry crowd of children trooped
through the house OF ran shouting
with glee around the grounds.
All the rooms were made bright
with flowers. A long table was spread
in the dining room which was very
attractive with its snowy linen, silver,
and spray bouquets. AT 6 O'Clock
twenty-five of the older members
gathered around the festive board and
q sumptuOus dinner was served. Faith
er Coulthard occupied the head of the
table. Four successive tables were
served, families taking precedence &C
cording to age. The younger grand
daughters served at the tables.
After supper there was music from
q number of instruments. Miss Ien
ME Coulthard and Miss Elkins OF
G!enwood presiding at the piano.
When the shades of evening had fallen
and the Older folks gathered together
the tiny ones for the home going, the
lads and l.ssies and younger married
people renamed for u while to trip the
light fantastic toe and to extend their
visit with each other as long as pos
sible.
The homestead at which the gather.
ing was held has been the possession %
some member of the Coul,hard family
since 1858 Robert H. Coulthard in
whose honor the family clan assembled
was born in Dnmfreeshire, Scotland
Aug. 10. 1872. lie came with his par
ents to Nova Scotia when child, then
lived in Canada. In 1858 he came To
Iowa, invested extensively in land
which has been occupied by his sons
and daughters ever since. In 1875 he
and his wife came to Iowa TO he with
their children living at the place where
the gathering was held until tonr
years ago the aged wife departed for
her long home. Mr.. Coulthard has
certainly been blessed with long years
and few of mankind can gather around
them ninety three desc. n lants at one
gathering.
