men Friends at Island Lake. s ss

Ishpeming Record: Upwards OF
twenty gentlemen friends Of Captain
Thomas Walters were entertained BY
him at housewarming at his new
summer home at Island Lake Satur-

indulging in friendly contest of
pitching quoits, and preparing for:
the sterner work Of the evening: the
host and guests sat. down to an
elaborate dinner at 6 O'Clock. Two
expert chefs from the Lake Angelina
prepared the menu, which had as a
nucleus substantial beef steak and
strawberry shortcake. After the few
scattered remains had been cleared
from the tables the gentlemen sat
down to Bridge session, which
lasted until the hour of midnight ap-
preached. The following day the re-
turn to the city was made.
The guests who were entertained
at the housewarming are loud in
their praise of Captain Walters
summer home. Work on the struc-
ture was commenced last fall and it
was completed only a short time
ago. It is situated on an eminence
at the north end of the lake and
the view from the veranda is beau
tiful in the extreme. OF solid log
structure, the camp is substantial to
a degree. A spacious porch extends
around three sides of the building.
There are three large rooms down
stairs, a brick fire place in the liv-
ing room adding much to the cozi-
ness and cheerfulness of the camp.
The rooms in the second story are
used for sleeping rooms. The
camp adds a good deal to the appear
ances of the resort, which now boasts
