The Goth Birthday Anniversary Of Mrs.
Adeline Hill

On one OF the rarest Of June evenings.
Mrs. Adeline Hill entertained her rela-
tives and friends, the occasion being
her 90th birthday.
II has been the custom for many
years for Mrs. Hills friends to join
with her in the celebration of her
birthday. An event looked forward
TO many months in advance, not only
by Mrs Hill herself but by all her
friends; and looked lack upon as one
of the pleasantest occasions of the
gear. Her beautiful home, where the
greater part of her life has been
spent, and around which cluster so
many treasured memories, was arts
tically decorated for the occasion.
Many of the flowers used, being the
gifts of friends On the gift table
were found many attractive remem-
brances. Post cards brought greet
ings from many absent friends. Two
birthday cakes, one made by Edward
Drawn of Waterville, and the other by
Mrs. w A. Clifford of Clinton, called
forth much admiration.
Graphophone music was furnished
during the evening by Horace Hoxie,
and was greatly enjoyed. A recita-
ton by Miss Louise Herrin, mono
logue by Mrs. Nellie Hill, readings
by Mrs. Kate Hill and Mrs. Eve
Ign Pratt added to the enjoyment of
the evening. The most pleasing num-
Der of the program was a recitation
ments of ice cream and cake were
served.
Mrs. Hill was assisted in entertain
ing by her daughters, Miss jeanette
Hill and Mrs. w. S. Parkman, and her
granddaughter, Mrs. Fred Morrill,.
Her two sons, J. A. Hill and VIII Hill
were also present making the family
union complete. The out-of-town
guests were Mr.. and Mrs. j. H. With
erell, Or. and Mrs. I. II. Wltherell
and son of Oakland; Mr.. and Mrs. w.
o. Hodgdon, Freeport Mr. and Mrs.
Edward Drawn, Wateryille; w. A. Gift
ford, Miss Bertha Clifford, Clinton; Mr..
and Mrs. Will Rowell and daughter of
Madison.
Each guest in departing felt that
another link had been added to the
chain of pleasant memories. All
joined in offering this toast to Mrs.
Hill:
This is our birthday wish most true,
That coming years may hold,
Each in its clasp some gift for you
More dear than gems of gold.
