RECITAL WAS APPRECIATED.
Editor of The Sentinel: The criti-
cism, which appeared in Wednesday's
issue of the Sentinel, on the recital
at the Congregational Church was
considered unjust by a great many
people. Perhaps the style of the re
citai did not appeal Jto the tastes of
the critic, but it certainly was appre
eluted by a majority of the audience.
Mr Elliott did not present “A Gilded
Fool " but "An American Citizen " as
had been previously announced. We
desire to express our thanks to Mr.
and Mrs. Strayer for placing such a
high class course of entertainments
before the public and trust a similar
course may be arranged for next
season. I 8
