There’s no way of telling for sure what paper It originated In, but a good guess might be The Dally Nutshell, published In New Bern many years ago. Anyhow, It reads as follows: The Old Maids Convention at the Opera House was greeted by a very large and enthusiastic audience. Every one went to be amused, and all were thoroughly enter tained. The costumes were stunning and the proceedings of the Convention, as conducted under strictly feminine au spices, provoked frequent laughter and applause. In addition to the convention, a number of specialties were Introduced. Mrs. J. E. Sill, Mrs. J. E. Latham, Miss Lottie Justice, and Messes O. H. Guion, T, W. Dewey and J. E. Benton taking clever parts. The statue poses in part were too beautifhl. There will be a matinee at 4 o’clock this after noon. The following are some of the hints on New Bern bachelors.
