1906 August 23                    Lawn Party at Dalhousie

-  The beautiful grounds of George A. Taylor presented a gay appearance on the evening of the 16th of August. The lanterns, which were in profusion, shone brilliantly and two hundred and more human forms fitting here and there over the wide lawn made a picturesque scene. 

 

From the grandame, who that day completed the eighty-first year of her sojourn on this sphere, down to the daughter and granddaughter of the house, of seven months, all ages were represented. 

 

A refreshment booth attended by Miss Kate E. Charlton, Vernon L. Wright, and Stanley Lennehan, was well patronized. On the veranda of the dwelling was an organ which, under the skilful fingers of Miss Ethel L. Wright, Mrs. John Murphy, and Gordon Quigley, discoursed lively music. 

The voices of Misses Irene Sproule, Ethel L. Wright, and Mabel B. Wright, with Vernon L. Wright, Wesley Hamm, Gordon and Walter Quigley, filled the air with sweet and plaintive note. 

 

Stewart Venot contributed to the programme with many records on the gramaphone. 

 

Nor shall we forget the pies, which made redolent the long tables on which they rested and presented bower of beauty; which ranged from cents to dollars, some bringing as high as $3.50 and one going at $5.00. 

 

Our Baptist friends dispersed well pleased that they have added at least $50.00 to their fund for church repairs.
