It was a lay, loo loug to be remembered for the social anl innocent enjoyment that characterized it. All of our peo ple who could conveniently do so, seemed to be bent on a short respite from the cares of life, and picnics, fish fry s and barbecues came in for a full share. In the pursuit of pleasure there seemed to be no exemption as all classes and pievious conditions were otrt in forte. From early dawn until about o'clock, pocessions in which every conceivable- vehicle played a part were to be seed. wending their way to the outskirts,knd the woods in the vicinity rng With the merry laugh of lads and lassies. Mil- burnie, Falls of Neuse, Taylor's Pond, Mahler's Vineyard.Penny's Pond the Water Works, Penitentiary Woods, Pullen Park, Bledsoe's Grove, Brook side Park, Millbrook and numerous other resorts all had their represen tatives, and in general, all went off as happy as a marriage feast. Every conceivable species of fresh water fish, from the brook roach to the monstrous chub suffered, but mainly the finny tribe of diminut've propor tions. The day was indeed a merry one, and shows that our Raleigh folks, amid all the troubles that beset humanity, can at all times, take the world easy- and they are right. Personal Mention. Maj. J. M.
