There wa* a .family reunion*nt Mr.
Watfon W. Matthew* last week of more
than ordinary iuu*rest, ibotigli It es-
Dunbarton, were present l<Miking a* |
happy as a bridal couple. A few invi
ted relative* and friend* shared in the |
plea*ure of the occasion, taking *|a>cial
interest in the lemonade, ice cream.and
croquet. Mr. Matthew* i*expecting to
be surprised by receiving a fine beaver
bat from one of his daughters-in-1 aw,
after w bicti his friend* xx ill accost him
as Capt. Matthew*. The next family
reunion xxill doubtless be in the new
home in VViHiston. •
Let me say for vour, «orre»jiondent,
that ITeasunt li ill Bunday-school pic
nlc on the 17th instant xxus a great suc
cess. Mr. Ju». L. Grubbs is the *U|H?r-
iutendent of tbe school and w itb h few
other iieipers be made tbe day a very
pleasant one. Tlte little folks were de
lighted with ice ami lemonade and this
intemjierance xva* closely imitated by
.parent* xvJio appeared souiew hat selfish
iii restraining the children from taking
too lunch ice. Although there xvere
about three hundred people present,
the dinner w a* but little more than In**'
exhausted. The candidate was not
there and I am puzzled-about itr He
xvas expected though not invited, and
nobody lamented bis absence, but it
wa* a sort of glad disappointment that
tiie pic nlc was purely a Sunday school
affair w ithout any speeches with polit
ical post script*. This discourtesy of
the candidiite xvill not cost him a single
vote.
After a few xxords from the pastor
the company dispersed leisurely to their
homes with the assurance that the. day
xvill be a bright spot in tlie memories of
the children and a worthy model for
their festivities in the years to come.
