On entering, the guests were met by Mrs. Bowen Daniel, and In the drawing room they were received by Mrs. Taliaferro, who presented each one to the guest of honor Mrs. Fairbanks. Charming ly gowned and with the exceedingly agreeable manner which never falls to please, Mrs. Fairbanks made an excel lent Impression, and the many pleas ant things she had to say about Flori da and Floridans show that she has enjoyed every minute of her stay.
