tic success. 1t was one OF the best
concerts of it's kind ever given in
this village. and was attended by an
appreciative audience, which gave
evidence Of its appreciation by rapt
attention and enthusiastic applause.
10 this recital Ne. Gillett made
his debut in L'Anse, and his artis-
tic singing on this occasion fully
justified the opinions Of those who

American baritones.
The recital was given entirely
from memory and in an admirably
artistic style, his delightful tenn
permanent thrilling through every
tone, giving scope to an excellent

by none save those who have
mastered the art. Mr.. Gillett has

cital by H. N. Aldrich, tenor, and
Mrs. J.. B. Smith, pianist, whose
