A notable event of the season
was a musical reception given last
Friday evening by some twenty
members of the church choir, near
all ladies, at the cottage residence
of John Peters on Port street.
The house was illuminated ON
the outside by Japanese Lanterns
on the front aud rear galleries and
supplied inside with Magnolia and
other flowers. The music was led
by the expert Organist Miss
Louise Olivier on the cottage Or
gan and was altogether very fine.
After some pieces had been rem
dered the venerable octogenarian
became so inspired that he arose
and resting upon his cane sang a
few OF his old time ballads of
sixty years ago, to the amusement
of all present. After partaking of
a bountiful supply of refreshments
the party retired.

and plantations of them are being

send of to his friends who were married
and they were all waiting TO return tbs

There was confetti by the barrel but this
was not ALL NO sooner was the ceremony
over than a band, which played as badly
as it could, gave a serenade and Mr.. TAFT
was compelled TO come to the porch OF
the house and bow his acknowledgement
On landing at Chestnut street wharf
Philadelphia, they found that one OF the
officials of the steamship line had mar
shaled the employees Of the company
and other friends Of the couple to receive
them. They were also accompanied by
a band and the wedding party was
marched to the Bollevue-Stratford where
