Many [Gentle of 1)r. J. A. Rollins
tendered him a farewell banquet
Wednesday evening of last week on
the eve of hie departure for the
Northwest. ,where he will look
around for a suitable location.
The reception was attended by
about forty-five persons, Of whic
only a few were business men of
the town. ITowever those present
demonstrated in no uncertain man-
ner the esteem which Dr. Rollins is
'Old by them.
After the banquet supper County
Warden, Hugh Spackman, who had
been cwppointed toast master, opened
with a short address. Mr. Spack-
man stated that the assemblage .was
tlie,ne to bid farewell to ore of the
oldest residents of Exeter, a man
who had held the highest offices in
the gift of the corporation and the
County of lluron, having been Reeve
of Exeter and Warden of the County.
Ile had been intimately aceu:tinted
with the Dr. for a number of yeses
and had always found him the same,
kind, courteous, entertaining and of
.a charitable disposition. Ile hoped
drat in his new field of labor, sucerss
would follow hitt, and while his
loss to the coriimunity is greatly de-
plored, yet, after the success which
to is sure to attain, we may some
day .see him in our midst again, en-
joying our friendship and good fel-
lowship.
The toast to the Icing was ;re-
sponded to by the assemblage arising
while the bund played the national
anthem.

dress Mr. Burdon spoke of the im-
mense potter and influence of the
British Empire, comprising las it
does, one-third of the entire globe.
to which the Roman Empire, the
strongest rsition of ancient times,
would seem n small dot on the snap.
llo spoke of British I'arli.auieutar-
tans, -the guiding stars of the states•
men of the world, of British com-
eree, liberty, freedom, and e.fuc•ation
.and that the great :success of our
Empire louring the latter part of
the List century, was the lore, es-
teem end loyalty to the great Queen
whom we can look back to with ven-
erntion. For the Ring, the loyal
subjects of Greet Britain ,have
naught but the highest regards and
esteem. The army and navy of old
England nre unequalled -and %:Lite
not wishing for war, have their own
tray of going ahead thus assuring
