THE MIDSUMMER COTILLION.
Young Folks Held High Carnival AZ
ter Unwilling Last Thursday.

The unveilng Of the monument.
ITO Our Confederate Dead" at Wal
halla on Thursday last was to many
a most solemn ceremony. The eXer-
Uses attending 1t are not soon to be
forgotten by those who participate ed
in, or witnessed them. Incidents re-
lated brought back sad memories,
whilH anecdotes that occurred dur
ing the trying times of the sixties
provoked peals of laughter. The reg
ular program for the occasion closed
with the firing OF the farewell salute
from the little "Peacc Maker Of
40. but the grandSOnS and grand
daughters Of the men OF 81 had not
yet done celebrating. for at Pitch
ford'S Hall
here was sound Of revclry by
night.
And Oconee'S capital had gathered
then
Her beauty and her chivalry: and
bright
The lamps Shone DER fair women
and brave men:
\ hundred hearts beat happily; and
when
Music arose with its voluptuous
swell,
Soft eyes looked love to eyes which
spake again.
And az wen merry as marriage
bell:
On with the dance. let JOY be I'M
confined:
No sleep till morn, when youth and
pleasure meet
TO chase the glowing hours with
dying feet"
Promptly at $50 O'Clock the or
chestra struck up the grand march.
which was led by Governor NJ. f..
AnSeI, OF Columbia and Miss Gary
Doyle. OF Granbury, Texas. At the
close OF the march, cards for the
dance were distributed by MIR. and
Mrs. Claude Reid. AS soon as the
cards could be filled, the dance be-
gan and lasted until long after the
