ment.

her coming is more generally
known.

the rain of the night before.
This condition of course kept
mai^y away, however, one of the
largest crowds that had been
seen here for a long time was in
town; as one man expressed it,
there were some that had nevei
been seen here before, or any-
where else. Those who found
it too [jinuddy to come in autos
came in wagons, buggies or
horse back. There wera proba-
bly more vehicles and horses
here than had been seen in town
for several years. All seemed
to enjoy themselves and have a
jolly good time, rain cr no rain.
The merchants did a thriving
business and all are pleased with
the venture and trust to have
better wet ther next tin e.
