days previous, we wended our way to the

found the host and hostess in their usual
happy mood, surrounded by friends and
neighbors from Syracuse, Waverly, Towan
da, Sheshequin and Litchfield. The Doctor
has just completed a new bouse and is very
comfortably fixed indeed. The company en
joyed themselves so hugely that the afternoon
passed all too soon. A bountiful and elegant
repast was served, which by the way was 110
surprise as it is always so when Mrs. .T. has
anything to do with it. The Rev. brother
Wright, of Horn Tlrook, being present, the
Doctor and wife were re-united in marriage,
tlie ceremony being in rhyme and very amus
ing as well as instructive. Night coming on,

of their regard for their entertainers and
wishing them long life and continued pros
perity. A GUEST.
