WESTPORZ
The rare. Spectacle of the new year
Coming to us without a particle of ice in
pends or the river itself, would seem to
indicate a change from old to very new
methods on the part of the seasons.
The weather of Christmas Day was
mild and inviting like that which is so
grateful to us in May. People apparently
raced less for good dinners and church,
ceremonials and more to be in the open
air, and as a consequence walking, riding
and driving was the order of the day.
All the churches were beautiful in honor
of the great anniversary, and the services
were in keeping therewith, The usual
services were~ held in 'the morning at
Christ church and Memorial church, Rev.
Mr. Elwood officiating at the latter.
Christmas eve, instead ofthe old time
service which Christ church has main-
tained for fifty years on such occasions,
there was an entertainment for the chil-
dren, who, during the evening, were sur-
prised by the arrival of Three Wise Men
from the East. attired in costumes as near
as possible to what is supposed to have
prevailed 1800' years ago. Patriarchial
beards added to their apparent wisdom,
and they distributed gifts to everybody,
the little folks in particular. Now that it
is all over it may not spoil the charm to
say that the gift dispensers were, Messrs.
H. E. Sherwood, Lloyd Nash and Chaun-
ing Harris. Memorial church Sunday
School were entertained on Holy Inno;
cent’s eve in the church basement, which
had been gaily attired by the ladies for
the occasion. All the children, and many
who were not, received gifts. Previous
to the distribution a children’s
was held by Rev. James E. Coley, in the
church, which was elegantly adorned for
the great festival.
Thursday night when the sudden change
in weather occurred, and a hurriCane
came sweeping down from the north,
blowing limbs from trees, unroofing houses
and disturbing things generally, Charles
Wheeler, Albert Sherwood and two other
boys were on Cankeens Island,whither
they had journeyed in a boat early in the
day to shoot ducks. They found it im-
possible to leave, and it began to appear
that thcymust remain outhe lone and
barren snot all night, and take the chance
between shelter in the old whiskey distil-
lery at the south-east end of the island
and freezing .to death. Their situation
was perilous, and their friends at home
thought so, too. In response to the
appeals of the latter, A. G. Sanford, Hez~
ekiah Allen and Walter Trough went with
a boat in the night to their relief, and suc-
ceeded in returning with them to the ,
main land. Their exploit, under the cir-
cumstances, deserves to gain record as
one of the bravest.
At the annual communication of Tom-
ple Lodge, No. 65, Thursday evening, of-
ficers for the ensuing year were elected as
follows:—W. M., W. E. Albin; S. W.,
Charles Fable; J. W., F. N. Taylor;

generally are taking an interest.
There was a joyful time at the Meth-
odist church Christmas night. A lighted

them and the older ones very happy.
