nesday of last week. Quite a number
started. from this village at an early:hour
having already secured the best rigs in

was spent by all. Tae clay was all that
could be desired and the sailing on the

an interesting programmewas provided
by the association. M. U, C. Bolton
read a twenty minutes essay. Thie
was a condensation of a great part of

the matter as a whole, and kept his

The sky was overcast but hope.s were
glimmering that the day might yet be

free the party started off, merry laugh
being wafted on the still air to the far
distance- • about eleven o'clock, and

and others were rallaokihgetlie free and

to the hotel, where the noble boniface
did all he could to make the party enjoy
themselves.
Camiche Meece-Se. Meity's vs. Ex-
ETER.-A match came off on the
grounds ef the Exeter club, on Thaes-
day lett, which resulted in Exeter beat
ing St. Mary's by two emus, the score
standing 108 to 110. Each club had
but one inniugs, on account of the late
hour at which the St. afary's team ar-
rayed, they being 'detained by the rain
which fell there in torrents. . They
came short-handed too, and recogniz-
ing the power of the press, eelect-
ed one of the nuns staff, who by the
way knows as much about playing
cricket as a jackass knows about his
grandfather. So the speclators evi-
dently thoueht when the first over was

which was indeed formidable. Howev-
er, had the services of one of orr staff
not been procured, they woulatame
suffered. a fittehtyome -lam" as scene a
gtirOjeel'eggj;-they would have been
completely annihilated-stvept out of
existence as a club. The playing of
some of the St. Mary's men was. excel-
lent, the bowling of Capt. White beingp y
ea t la ers were all obtatned front tczthtti
aulierb, and the batting of E. Gregg
short but sweet, much to the disgust of
some of our Exeter cricketers, who
looked to see some gOod playing from
this splendid batsman. W. C. Mos-
arip played well, and made the aston-
isaing score of 50 runs. W. Adams
eyes daieg SOIlle good batting when he
came in late at the wickets and found
it convenient to take a rest. Most of
the others went in, dodged the balls
awhile, raised the bat and thought,
" Well, I've got this ball, sure," and
then retired disgusted with cricket, yet
with the consoling thought that they
h.ad.aeen saved a good deal of running.
The Exeter club did remarkably well
for their first match, and strinieed
themselves as well as others in beating
it club hailing from a ,place so preten-
tious as St. Mory's. We hope to see
them continue in the same manner.
So now who comes next? The follow-

IPOF .50/110 thne past it young nian

on correspolidance with a lady in Chi-
cago, Illimoie, e,hiell ripened into
friendship and from atat into love.
About three weeks sgo Die. ----took his
summer vacation, andnaturaViev enough
he went to the Phoenix City uf the 1,1re:.4,
to visit his fair inamorata. It was the
" old, old story," love asserted its
sway, and the parties plighted their
troth, and an early marriage was agreed
upon. Tho lady was wealthy and ac-
complished, and the match was en
eligible one in every respect. Tiine
hurried on, and the leave of absence of
Mr.- expired. He prepared for
his return trip and as his intended
wife was about visiting Roston, Mass.,
she accompanied him as far as Strat-
ford, reaching this town on Saturday
evenina last, and being much fatigued
by the journey, the lady expressed a
wish to stop ON'OF during the Sabbath.
A comfortable apartment was secured
for her at the Waverly House. She
complained very much &the wearisome
journey from Chicago. Go Sunday she
appeared somewhat refreshed, but still
complained of not feeling well, but
neither herself nor friends were alarm-
ed until Monday, when it became evi-
dent that the lady was suffering from it
severe illness. . Medical advice was at
once procured, but the doctors thought
a few days rest would restore the pa-
tient to health, and advised proper
nourishment and repose. All huinan
efforts were of no avail,-- she failed to
improve, and on Thuisday afternoon
last, dangerous iafiamation set in, and
quite unexpected she breathed her hist.
No pen can describe the anguish of
her lover wheee fond hopes were thus
wrecked by this tragic termination.
His grief was intense and distracting.
God grant him power to bear with it.
The remains of tho deceased lady were
forwardeil by express to Boston for in-
terment.
