Mrs. Perdomo was quite overcome
with feeling at this wholly unexpect-

gratitude and appreciation which she
felt for the gift and the kindly feeling
which inspired it. She expressed sim
cere regret at being obliged to leave
a place where she has had such pleas
ant associations, but tears of real graft
tude impeded her words, giving most
eloquent expression of feelings too
deep for words.

but who have also been equally as
pleasantly associated with Mrs. Per-

sacred songs, in which all Joined, be-
sides which Mrs. Gilhousen sang sew
