Geo. W, Holman, Clerk, REGISTRAR APPOINTED WEDDING RECEPTION The Lass of limerick Town ed the audience with monolognee be- tween the acts. The girls of the chor- tle must not be forgotten, They were as pretty an aggregation as one could wish to see and Seaforth can always ap predate the pretty girls. Mr, Chas, Buokly deserves every credit for the musical directions of the opera, it rep- resented a good deal of hard work and considerable ability to present it 80 well. The Opera House was filled to capacity and besides the pleasure of seeing a performance of this nature we are glad to know that it was very su0- ooesful financially, Seaforth was treated to 511 excellent Comic Opera given by the (luderich Op. era Co., on May 29 and will for a long time retain a very pleasant memory of the averring. The Lass from Limerick Tow11 is a very pretty and pleasing op. era abounding in good music and it Ives presented in a moat creditable manner. The choruses were excellent and among the individual actors were some very good voices. The costumes partioularlY deserve mention, they were most at- tractive and added cpnsiderably to the enjoyment of the evening. The acting of the various parts left nothing to be desired and it would be difficult to single out any for particular mention. Mr, Parsons showed considerable abil. ity in his part of Judge Hooley, he is an entertaining actor with good sing- ing and speaking voice, 111r. Sexsmith also stood out prominently, adding a wealth of humor to the opera as also did Mr. Sturdy iu hie excellently acted part of the inn keeper, Miss Doolittle and Miss McClinton took their parts most creditably, Their singing was of a high order, The only fault to be found with Mrs. Buckley is that her par; was too email, she has outstanding ability as an actress and gave all her work a clever finish. Mr, McGregor during his act gave a very clever ex- hibition of dancing and also eutertaie. Mr and Mrs. John A, McGregor, of Wood Hall, Tuckersmith gave a recep- tion on the evening of the 24th to Mr. and Mrs, Edgar Butts on their return from their wedding trip, Tho beautiful home was tastefully decorated with apple blossoms, lilacs maple branches and looked festive in- deed. The guests. numbering 140 began to arrive early iu the evening and soon the spacious rooms wore filled with a gay, joyous throng. Beautiful and costly were the gifts, which the guests in the kindness of their hearts present- ed to the bride. With music, song and dance the perfect summer night passed all too quickly till the dawning of another day forced the guests to de- part, after wishing a long and happy life together to the young couple, and thanking Mr, and Mrs, McGregor, for having given them a real good time.
