Mr. Hunt, our old but enthusiastic

from N orwalk, East Norwalk, South
Norwalk and New Haven. A very so-
cial evening was spent. Music and
song were indulged in by those pres-
ent, little Elsie Platt’s vocal solo being
the most pleasing of the soles. About
ten o’clock the guests were ushered in-
to the dining room where they were
seated at tables fairly laden down with
, good things, to which all present did
ample justice. About midnight the
guests departed wishing Mr. and Mrs.
Keeler a long and happy wedded life.

MRS. SMITH.—-—“ Oh, I’m very well indeed, thank you, and so are the
