PLEASANT SURPRISE
George c. Phillips Given Parting Reception
Last Evening.


A pleasant gathering took place at
the residence of Charles H. Potter on
Main st, Wednesday evening when the
official board of the Methodist church,
with their wives and others met to ex
tend to George c. Phillips a parting
reception, as he is soon to leave here
to reside with a daughter in Pittsfield,
Mass, Mr. Phillips has been mem
ber of Mr. Potters family for l6 years.
During that time he has been closely
associated as member, and officer of
the Methodist church and has many
friends here, among all denomina-
tions.
The reception was complete Sur
prise to the old gentlemen, but he stood
the ordeal like a "hero." After some
time spent in friendly chat, Judge Car
ney on behalf of the official board of
the church and other friends presented
Mr. Phillips with handsomely bound
copy of Testament and Psalms" with
name in gilt on the cover.
Later refreshments were served, and
when the party left best wishes and
hopes that Mr. Phillips would have
many more such surprises, were un-
amiously extended. Such episodes
are pleasant to think about" in the
future that comes to all.
