THE PICNIC AT SHELTON.
An Enjoyable Occasion Long to b
Remembered by Those
M'/io Attended.
It wits the wiitei's pleasuic lo atten

I boarded the noon train Saturday uu
arriving at Carlisle joined a party fror
Union who bad gone down on Frida
night with the intention of going b
private conveyance from Carlisle Satm
day morning, but for some reason di
not do so. The party consisted of Misse
L.llian, 1'earl and Maud Goforth an
Messrs. Frank Sanders, Ilaynes Ilarri
and the writer, of Union, and Misse
Lilla Herndon and Maud Cain, of Cai
lisle, with Miss Lilla Crenshaw as chap
eron. Boarding tho train at Carlisle w
arrived at Shelton about 2:30 p. in
and ou glancing down in the valley be
low, near the river, a large crowd couh
be seen enjoy iug the maguilicent shade c
the gigantic trees. An elevated plat
form had been erected in the center o
this beautiful spot for those who desires
to daLce, and music was furnished b
the Shelton string band, which did anipl
justice to the occasion. There wei
atxmt fifteen or twenty couples on th
floor and the dancing continued i ff am
on all day, and those who did not car
to dance were attentively watching th
couples as they glided over the 11 k>i
while others were strolling along tin
river liank enjoying the picture squ
-
scenes, ana others were on tho liver ii
boats, but as the sun was so awfully ho
boat riding was eventually abandoned
There was a stand erected close to tin
platform where ice cream, lemonade
c->ca cola and ice water were served am
were greatly in demand. About 3:1.
dinner wss announced, and all who coul<
gathered around the table, which wa
about sixty feet long, and was heavil
laden with good things to eat; there wa
plenty for all and everybody seeiue
satisfied. After dinner the music wa
again started and the dancers danced t
their heart's content. Everybody see me
to bave enjoyed the day's outing, an
especially the younger people. About
p. m. the crowd begau to disperse an
wending their way homeward were n
doubt perfectly satisfied with the wa
in which they had speut the "Gloriou
I Eouith."
I Our party had to cross the long trest
| over Broad river, where tho wagon wa
I said to be which was to take us b;ick 1
Carlisle, but the crowd was disappoint*
arthe wagon had not arrived. Afti
waiting for about half an hour we stai

going a short distance we met the wagt
