is seldom seen.
A short literary aud musical pro-
gramme was carried out, after which
George 5. Robinson, in behalf of the
friends, in felicitous remarks, presented
Mr.. Sweeney with a handsome Morris
chair as souvenir of the occasion. Mr..
Sweeney briefly but happily expressed
his appreciation, alike for the gift and
the kindly spirit prompting it. D. l..
Mausur followed, aud spoke of the close
| intimacy that had existed between Mr.
Sweeney and himself in their 'boyhood
and school days, Refreshments were

cerned.
We all like to honor Mr.. Sweeney fol
he is an exemplary citizen in the bes
sense of the word, especially as peace
maker. Many are the differences ant
breaches that existed among neighbour
which he has overcome and restored
pleasant aud amicable relations, and nj
man today better enjoys the fullest con
fidence of his fellow citizens than be.
