The. party half filled a car and alightell
at ltowayton station at 1:07. They were -
soon at Midlirook, and their coming
was a surprise to Mrs. Weed. but not
to her husband. A lunch was served
and the walls of the dining-room were
almost bulged out by thr- crowd. The
lunch hour extended to 2. and the
songs. speeches and story-telling by the
friends of the youthful days were side-
splitting and laughter-provoking. in-

the host and hostess and to the “Queen
of the old Girls." who was absent. a
lady now an invalid nt ('lifton Springs;
who. though suffering bodily affliction
for years. has maintained her cheerful-
ncss and has been the leading spllii
of this cotcric of old friends. Her
health was drunk in bumpers of elder.
The hilarity continued outdoors. and a
livelicr party has seldom assembled at
any country house in this town. The
hilarity was partially stopped by a
most interesting cpisodc. At 4 p. m.

River school headed by their leachers.
marched by lwos into the grounds
bearing aloft silken American flags.
thn directly in front of the house
they sang "Three Cheers for the Red,
White llfllI Blue" in a most spirited
fashion: and. with each chorus. waved
the flags most cli'cctivcly. After this
along the children passed in single tile
and each one handed to Mrs. Weed a
rose—a white one by the. girls and a
pink one by the boys. Mrs. Weed was
visibly affected. bllt managed to res-
bond with a four well-chosen remarks
The children gave three cheers and the
assembled guests gave three more. The
school visit was the second surprise
of the day. Shortly after the guests de-
parted by train for New York. ,
The proceedings of yesterday. the
third day. were organized by some of
the leading spirits of the Norwaik
Chapter of the D. A. R.. of which Mrs.
Weed is the honored regent. although
the gathering was not confined exclu-
sively to members of the chapter. It
was successfully planned and carried
out as n “surprise visit." About 3:15

from Norwsllt and Smith Norwalk and flu.

ed at Midhrook within ten minutes of
each other. bearing over one hundred
guests, The visit took Mrs. Weed by
surprise i'uleed as her own carriage
had been ordered and she was about
starting out for a drive. The first
delegation stormed the upper story of
the house and Mrs. Weed was forced
to surrender. They took her, a pris-
oner to the first floor. and the crowds
of ladies fairly swarmed upon her.
Congratulations} were multiplied and
