Company No. 1, I have to state that owing
to sickness iu some, business engagements
in others ; and a lack of the proper interest
and energy in many otheis, the effort to gel
lip these entertainments thus far has been
crowned with Bainbridge success. (Don’t
tel! the outside world that that means total
failure.) To those ladies and gentlemen
who cheerfully came forward, and with un
tiring energy and perseverance endeavored
to perfect themselves in their respective
parts so as to make the entertainments
worthy in every way the patronage of the
citizens, irrespective of the claims of chari
ty, I tender them my most sincere thunks,
but to those who, wheu nights of practice
and rehearsal came around had an “extra
fine segar to smoke with a friend,” or a “pet
game of billiards to be played,” “or better
than all, “the girls had to be called upon,
and of course they could not Attend. J
shall leave them to the tender mercies of
thefr coociences and to the Stonewall boys
at whose request the entertainments were
to be given. It seems to me Mr. Editors
that the curse of your town is a lack of
energy, to improve or be improved, a want
of proper determination to accomplish some
thing in rhental, moral and physical cul
ture. Sometime siuce a Lyceum was or

it fell an untimely victim to “Bainbridge
