and reached tho grounds between 8 and 9

the old folks endeavored to make them

tle folks swinging. Sir. Gregory, who
looked after the lemonade, lias some os
nice as we could find anywhere, which wo
drank during the day with a great deal of
pleasure. After the children got tired of
the swing, they gut them to playing some
innocent plays, which they enjoyed very
much. We had dinner about 12 o’clock,
and a grand dinner it was—just such
dinner as the lllackshear and Screven peo
ple are capable of preparing. After din

people, returned to their play, am) some

to both young ar.d old. The Doctor is one
of those men who are ready for any emer

at any time, whether expecting or not ex
