feet and a large crowd witnesses the
pretty affair, both from boats and
from the shore. About 80 launches
participated, forming in line at Pine
island at 2 o'clock, passing in and out
of Eallard's bay and being reviewed
from the piazzas of Cobbossee colony
where most of the spectators were
gathered. The details of the parade
we're in charge OF Capt. Mooney and
tho snecial features arranged by him
added much to the occasion. The great
club flag 65 feet long. suspended from
n 14Oo-foot wire high across the bay
was unfurled as the launches paired
in review, and though its weight caus-
cd the wire to sag more than was eX-
pccted it was very pretty scene
which will long he remembered by al
those who witnessed 1t.
