Rev. Frank Herson Gives
Address in Cecilton

Cecilton Community held a patri-
otto meeting there on Monday, July
4th. A number of the children gave
appropriate drills and one young lady
gave several good readings. The
Cecilton Band which was organized
by Prof. Edwards at the same time as
the Continental Band, rendered some
very good music, directed by Prof.
Edwards. Rev. Frank Herson Of
Newark gave an interesting address
on "Have We Discovered America"
which was received with out of the
ordinary enthusiasm.
After the address, supper was
held on the lawn of one of the homes,
under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid
Society of the Cecilton Methodist
Church and the Cecilton Band, the
proceeds of which were to be divided
equally between them.
Last year they held similar sup
per and netted profit Of $500. The
crowd was much larger on Monday
evening and no doubt the proceeds
will be higher. Many Newark people
attended both the patriotic meeting
and the supper.
