By Blackboard TO CAMDEN. A Jolly
party of nine young ladies enjoyed ride to
Camden last Friday. Although the morn
ings promise of radiant day was not full
filed and even few drops of rain fell.
they in no wise disheartened the party, who
were well fortified with wraps and abundant
good SpiritS-the non-alcoholic kind. The
route taken was new one to most of the
party, and the scenery was so beautiful and
varied that the visitor from Texas declared
| herself a "Maine-iac" from that time forth.
| The change of drivers somewhat alarmed
the more timid, but the turnpike picnic
ground was reached without accident and
both beasts and humans enjoyed an hour
or more of rest and refreshment. The drive
around the lake, past some of the Lake
City cottages, was another first experience,
| and from the opposite side of the pond a
fine view of Maiden's Cliff and its cross
We're obtained and the tragic story was
told, in several Of its varied forms. in
/ Camden a halt was made long enough for
Gail at Mixers, where we found our former
towns woman, Mrs. George Mixer, as pleas
ant as ever, and brought away samples of
some OF their delicious wares The drive
home, past the beautiful summer homes so
numerous in Camden, was as charming as
ever and enjoyed to the fullest extent. A
sortie upon deserted apple orchard and
the rec ignition Of some youthful friends of
the morning, whose schoolhouse we passed,
and who were showered with kisses of the
candy variety, were almost the only incl
dents of moment The amateur coachwOman
gave up the reins at Saturday Cove, for the
darkness had descended rapidly, and from
there on we trusted to luck, good driver,
and horses that knew,ithe road. The party
| gradually broke up on. our arrival in town,
and it was with reluctance that our faithful
mascot, Jack, who had proved trusty es-
cort, was induced to part with the buck
board in which we all had spent a.delight-
full day.
