which was very much enjoyed by all
who attended.
The first number was quartette by
4 of the younger old uns, who were
Mesdames Lawrason, Andreae, Newell
and Lura Kelley. 1t was very pret-
ty rendition. The second number was
a recitation by of the oldest uns i'm

and when one considers that Mrs.
Holden is over eighty, one will readily
see that she is very bright and active
to be able to stand upon the platform
and give fine recitation from memory
and upon being encOred returned with
an appropriate Bible verse.
The drill by old uns was actually
performed as well as our best dressed
school children. As symbol of their
high office, these old uns carried rolling
pins.
The next number brought down the
house. This was song by one old
maid, represented by Mrs. G. w. Allen

was then given by Miss Hanna, as old
un. The selection was Aud Robin

ter, accompanied by her son and
daughter. came to this city.
When the "Governor" saw his sister
for the first time in 40 years he was
puzzled for n moment, but recognized

born here II years ago on the island
