who opened the proceedings con- gratulated not only the happy couple who were being so deser- vlngly honored, but also congratu-

lated the community which had

acted worthy of itself, by making such a pleasant meeting possible.

He then dwelt upon the unbroken faithful character of Mr. and Mrs. MacLean. and. to the fact that not only their children. but also their grandchildren, blessed them for ‘their consistent Christian example in their home life.

Rev. Mr. Griffiths also sang ap- propriate verses. which he had hurriedly composed rol- the occa- sion and which rose the crowded gathering to such a high pitch of emotion that. later on in the eve. nlng the item had to be repeated.

Captain MacDougsll made a brief speech very suitable to the occa- sion. and which was wall received, following which Mr. n. .1. Riley, after stating how the movement stirted. and adding sentiments of appreciation. proceeded with the Pleasant duty of presenting the happy pair with a most handsomr: lounge chats, of elegant appear- ance. following which. this, also on behalf of a. large number of sub- scribers.

Mrs. MacLcan several envelopes containing individual sums of morny.

A happy feature of the pro- ceedings was the hearty commun- ity singing in which all the young people present lustily raised their voices, with Mr. Griffiths at the organ.

A tasty lunch had been prepared by somr: of the ladies and which was thoroughly unloved by the largo company, which filled everywoonl 0f the ground floor of the house.

Credit is due also to two young gentlemen, who were on a visit from Boston, for their many skil- fui wntributions of mandoline and banjo duettes at intervals during the evening.

It may be added that the pres- ence of the sons and dough sci Mr. and Mrs. MacLean, along with the grandcbildrnn added a signifi- cance to the hBPpy occasion which will be long remembered by all who were present.
