After prayer and music, Rev. L. L. Rogers ¡.poke earnestly for about half an hour upon the present aspect of the temperance question in our midst, and expressed the opinion that it was within the power of the citizens of our town to suppress entirely the sale by the glass of every kind of intoxicating liquor. Following his speech were recitations by Miss Adah Horton and Wm. Willits and a select reading by Miss Irene Wrisley. After more music by the choir, Dr. E. L. V. Coon, G.
