To the dis appointment of all, Rev. John Kershaw, who was to deliver the annual address, was not able to keep the engagement. The speech he had prepared for the occasion was read by Rev. W. B. Gordon in a very entertaining manner. The unusual feature of the oc casion was the presentation by Prof. R. M. Kennedy of a loving cup to Mrs. M. A. Shannon, who, with this session, severs a con tinuous term of thirty-three years of service in the schools of Camdeu. This cup was pre sen ted by Prof. Kennedy in bo half of the pupils, teachers and trustees of the Camden Graded School.
