A team containing the Post Mills
Drum Corps in costume, driven by
Lewelland Miller. We can hear the
music yet. A float representing a
cage of monkeys, driven by Fred
Stetson and ID. J. Wood, in costume,
which was hard to beat. A team
representing a modern stage wagon
driven by Walter Terhune certainly
showed a good imitation. The
team of Linwood Taft, containing
four clowns looked and acted their
part to perfection. The team
driven by Fred Marley, of West
Fairlee, contained children, mostly
in costume, and a barge driven
by Selden George, of West Fairlee,
was very prettily decorated and
heavily loaded Every rig was very
good and showed much hard work
and ingenuity. At noon, dinner
was served to about $50 by the
Ladies Benefit nociety, which show
ed its ability to handle a crowd
without confusion and gave every
one plenty to eat. The ball case
between the hayseeds and grass
hoppers was called early m oruer
to avoid the rush. The game se-
tween West Fairlee and Vershire
was hotly contested and won by
West Fairlee. The mile foot race
ended prematurely on account Of
a misunderstanding as to how many
laps had been run and the prize
was given to Dean Worcester of

About 600 people were present and
everyone had a good time. The

mention, their willingness to give
frequent and well rendered selec-
tons added greatly to the pleasure
of the day. Prizes awarded in the
