tanned yesterday at the home of Miss
Blake Watson, at Pine Grove, with an
old-fashloned quilting party. Miss
Roderick. of Mar'insburg, who is

down on the train, and all spent de-
lightful day together. The absence of

not lamented, as one and all agreed

bride. This was considered but as
the young ladies grew very much ex-

risk winding up an otherwise delight
