,.x* SHARON ~*

of the Civil War and was severely wounded at Irish Bend in Loplsana. He died here, at the Finney homestead, in 1890.
 Henry Gay and his son, Stephen R., went to West Stockbridge. Mass, fifty (perhaps more) years ago and were con- nected with an iron furnace. Some of the family were buried in tho cemetery near that village.
 The lecture entitled "Some Salubri- ties" have met" given by John Ken drick Bangs, under the auspices of the Sharon entertainment course at Sharon Casino Friday evening January 18th was the most enjoyable entert ainment Sharon has had in long time, coming as it dld after long succession of "local talent" affairs, whose chief interest lies ill the fact that the actors are all people known to the audience. It was very re- freshing. MT. Bangs is a gentleman whose personality and delivery are both very pleasing and who has 8 way of talking to his audience which puts them on good terms, both with the lecturer and with themselves. The lecture proved that MT. Bangs is clever, witty, student of human nature, and that he has keen insight into those finer feel- ings of humanity which do so much to make this world better. His lecture, for the greater part humorous, contained many anecdotes of well known men, principally authors, and concluded with what purported to be strictly veracious account of day spent at Oyster Bay with our strenuous executive. This sketch was highly amusing and seemed to please the audience immensely. As before stated the evening was very en- joyable one, and the committee of the entertainment course is to be congratu- lated on securing MT. Bangs. Let us hope that the remaining entertainments of the course will be up to the high standard set by this genial lecturer.
