Sixth Pilgrimage to Old Meeting House.

Sixth Pilgrimage to Old Meeting House.
old Rockingham Meeting House in the
village of Rockingham, five miles north
of here, last Sunday was an ENJOYABLE
and successful occasion in every way.
The delightful weather of the afternoon
induced a large number to come from
long distances, and before the hour Of
4 o'clock there were hundreds of vehi-
Giles standing within a half-mile north
and south of the historical structure.
Estimates made of the number present
vary from 1000 to 1900, but 1t is probable
this number was much too large and
that $50 would be much nearer the figure.
The building, which will seat only about
5oo, was flled to It's utmost capacity, and
possibly one-half as many more were
outside, about the doors and open win
dows
1t was an occasion that had received
The careful thought and planning of a
number of people deeply interested in
the annual exercises, but the credit for
the successful afternoons program is
certainly largely due to Prof Franklin
w. Hooper, director of the BROOKLYN In
stitute of Arts and Sciences, who is
president of the Old Rockingham Town
Meeting House association The deyo-
tional exercises wer led by Rev. Henry
l.. Ballou of Chester, and the singing
was congregational.
finely engraved tablet recently was
placed upon the walls by the descend
ants of DR.. Reuben JONES' the first phy-
stefan of the town, and leading patri-
OF of the Revolution in this locality. The
ADDRESS of presentation was made by
Hon. Frederick E. Wadhams, an attor-
ney of Albany, N. Y, whose wife is a
great granddaughter of the old hero and
was present at the meeting. This was
accepted by L. S. Hayes in behalf of
the town and the association.
Percy McKaye, noted poet of Cor
nish, N. H., read poem written by
MIN for the occasion, based upon an in
cident which actually occurred over a
century ago in the old meeting house.
IT Is probable that this poem will in
after years rank high with similar poems
written by the most noted poets based
upon simple incidents of everyday life
The sermon of the day was by Rev.
Philip Moxom, D. D.. of Springfield
Mass, his theme being the sturdy char.

eye is not as marked as his many
friends had hoped, and he is feeling
doubtful about ever reganing complete
use of it. 1t is supposed that the injury
occurred from an infection, the source
of which is not known, and for a time
it was feared that the other eye would
become involved but at this time it is
in perfect condition. The doctor expects
to return to the hospital within a few
days, and does not expect to resume his
practice for some time.
