evope00. The grounds are beantifully
situated on East Main street, and the
green is one of the best in the Province.
The terrace in front is shaded by fine old
trees, affording ample facilities for the
numerous opeotatore to watoll the game.
The green was pronounced by the players..
to be nearly as perfect as ppsoible. The
arrangements for the tournament were
faultless, and were parried out in a most
satiefaotory manner. The weather was
fine, but the number of entries was oom-
eiderably reduced by the wretched weath•
er of Monday. A number of olubs who
had signified their intention to compete
tailed to put in an appearance on that
menet, but notwithstanding unfavorable
oironmetances twenty rinks competed.
Clinton sent 4, Mitohell 2, Seaforth 1,
Harrieton 3, Gnelph 2, Bressole 3 and
Lietowel 5. Handsome silver trophies
were offered by the Listowel olnbe for
competition, which were keenly contested
