A telegram was sent to Sheriff Pear
son during the forenoon, asking him TO
be present at the temperance meeting

sheriff was too busy to come and the

history of the Grand Lodge. In spite
of the very disagreeable weather there
has been a very large attendance. Inc

the upward move. The time was Iio'
very far distant when some people De
